In October 1956, at the age of 26, Moore entered the
preparatory study group of Harley Street consultant Dr.
Kenneth Walker a long-term student of Gurdjieff’s
eminent expositor Piotr Demianovich Ouspensky. Here
began Moore’s engagement in every aspect of mainstream
Gurdjieff Work in London. In 1957, he gained entry to a
group taken by Henriette H. Lannes a premier pupil of
Gurdjieff, charged with furthering his legacy in
Britain. Moore studied intensively under Mme. Lannes for
21 years until her effective retirement in 1978. From
1979 until 1994 he studied under Maurice Desselle and
Henri Tracol, also enjoying intermittent contact with
Gurdjieff’s eminent pupil Mme Jeanne de Salzmann until
her death in May 1990. In 1981 Moore earned a mandate
from M. Tracol to constitute a group and transmit the
teaching himself. |
