Any students of the 4th way studying Akido ? Would be curious on integration of metaphysical balance negative and positive tri-forces on martial arts study.

Hi Matt,
I'm not personally studying the 4th way but my good friend and martial arts partner, Jim Mullen, does. He happens to study Ching Yi, Bagua,and Tai Xi; but the intersection of our arts and the amazing cross-over in experience that we have within our practices make us training partners. We both teach, I longer than he, and we often muse in the land of Gurdjeff because it is so integral to his perspective and 'knowing'.
Recently he wrote an article for his schools paper, Reeling Silk, including his perspectives including the 4th way.
I'll see if I can get an online file to offer here.
So, I guess what I'm saying is: yeah, people who look at the 4th way in MA are out there. Or in here, or both, or......well, you get my meaning
.
Best,
Jen
