We will continue to hold Monday meetings, at the same time and location,

"A modern man lives in sleep, in sleep he is born and in sleep he dies.  About sleep, its significance and its role in life, we will speak later.  But at present just think of one thing, what knowledge can a sleeping man have?  And if you think about it and at the same time remember that sleep is the chief feature of our being, it will at once become clear to you that if a man really wants knowledge, he must first of all think about how to wake, that is, about how to change his being."

                                                           -- Gurdjieff, from In Search of the Miraculous
