2.4 Great Chains Of Non-being

We should note in passing the attempt to resurrect the 'great chain of
being' in a novel form in the writings of Gurdjieff, and especially his student
J. G. Bennett. We can call this bluff at once with our previous statements about
Kantian skepticism. Especially is this necessary given the clear dishonest use of this archaic standby of the lore of the 'great chain of being' for the legitimation of social injustice, and worse, if we consider the synchronous emergence of fascist movements in the time-frame of the post-Blavatskian period.
