In this episode of Martfotai, we examine buffers: the psychic formations Gurdjieff identified as shock absorbers between incompatible truths about the same person. Drawing on Ouspensky and Maurice Nicoll, we trace how buffers form, how their gradual dissolution opens the capacity for conscience, and why the discomfort of inner contradiction carries the force that development requires. The episode includes a specific practice for holding two contradictory observations in awareness simultaneously.
