« I found the The Magic Language of the Fourth Way to be a powerful step into the world of language and music for anyone seeking a spiritual advancement through exact and precise knowledge. (...) If you want to go deep into the science of consciousness and reality you will want to read and study this book. »

«The Magic Language of the Fourth Way is a long, very deep and thoughtful piece of writing, full of words which are meant to show us how to discard words (...) dedicated to finding a higher path. The book is more than "the finger pointing to the moon" – it is a full, exhaustive map of the moon, a guidebook for spiritual astronauts. Those who are intrigued by the possibility of the mind conquering itself will find this book a welcome feast of mental exercise. I make these statements with no intended sarcasm. The Indian spiritual master Meher Baba stated that "to try to understand with the mind that which the mind can never understand is futile." This is a truth that Pierre Bonnasse grapples with, and his courage in producing his book, from his own large store of knowledge, will be appreciated by those who are also wrestling with these complex concepts in an attempt at simplification and an eye toward enlightenment.»

«Bonnasse sees writing as a conscious act, a form of praying, a way of being, a state of consciousness (…) makes some excellent points that are fully relevant (…) Pierre Bonnasse's book resembles a music box: Lift its lid and it plays (…) "The Magic Language of the Fourth Way" brims over with good spirits and bubbles over with enthusiasm and recurrence and reiteration and recapitulation. (…) the insights are so pivotal that the reader is left to wonder why the points did not occur to him or to her before Bonnasse gave them expression. This is language itself at work in the spirit of man. (…) There has always been a spiritual dimension to poetry, something "magical" about all the arts. So our time may truly be "the dawn of the magicians." »

«(...) This is a very thought-provoking book filled with information. It is a challenging read (...), it also includes copious diagrams and end reference notes which will thrill the avid investigator. It aligns thought with music, which is utterly mind-blowing and it explains Gurdjieff’s magnificent spiritual contribution to humanity in a very different way. This book is highly recommended for the serious student of modern spiritual thought.»
