Overview

Subud is an international spiritual movement that began in Indonesia in the 1920s, founded by Muhammad Subuh Sumohadiwidjojo. The movement spread to Europe and the rest of the world in the late 1950s. The practice of Subud requires a personal initiation which can be transmitted from one person to another. John Bennett who received the contact from Husein Rofé, was among the first Europeans to embrace Subud, and worked actively from 1957-1960 to grow the Subud movement.The lectures which make up this book were presented in 1960 and have been supplemented by a paper written later exploring the relationship between Subud and various Sufi teachers and traditions, based upon certain references made by Muhammad Subuh to his own Naqshbandi influences. John Godolphin Bennett (1897-1974) was a British mathematician, technologist, linguist and spiritual teacher. He is known as a leading exponent of the work of his teacher G.I. Gurdjieff. At the time of his death, Bennett was the Director of the International Academy for Continuous Education, Gloucestershire UK, a residential school based on the principles of Gurdjieff.
