The conference was attended by over 100 participants travelling from Argentina, Germany, Greece, Italy, Norway, Russia, Sweden, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States.From the Conference's inception, its members have worked toward making this "gathering of the Companions of the Book" to become more and more just that - a gathering of people from all over the world who come together for the purpose of "fathoming the gist" of Gurdjieff's writings, of sharing our insights and experiences, our questions, and our efforts to understand and grow into becoming remarkable men and women.The final session of the conference on Sunday morning, traditionally entitled "Where do we go from here?," provided an opportunity to discuss the achievements of the conference and the challenges facing its future editions.
