In order to do something, somehow act in the world, a person needs a body. A carpenter needs his hands to trim the board, a lumberjack needs his hands and axe, and his feet to lean on them - then he can chop. But according to the teachings of Gurdjieff, a person in principle can do nothing. He starts doing one thing, quits, starts another, and t. d. A person cannot do anything for the simple reason that a person, according to Gurdjieff, is a “sleeping machine” (man’s wakefulness is only an illusion of genuine wakefulness). And once a person is asleep all the time, then - what can he do?! So, the body serves a person in order to perform some actions. Man Crossing the Street . Drunk sailors fight. Man Builds a House . Professor gives a lecture. But this is all an illusion!
