Jan Cox - just learned he died, so here’s some links
When I first started this website I included a link to the website of Jan Cox, not because I knew the fellow, but because he seemed like a more interesting than average teacher, influenced by the Gurdjieff materials, but with a style of his own. And he had one of the few websites of a actively working teacher type, in a form and with a message in the same vein as my own ideas and writing.
I was touched when I heard that he had died fairly young, at the age of 67, from an unspecified form of cancer. He died long ago, 2005, I just heard about it recently. Oh well.
I’ve heard some people thought he was a petty, arrogant ass. That’s certainly possible. I wouldn’t know. I thought some of his writing was interesting enough, especially when compared to other “mostly unknown” thinkers and writers and teachers. Perhaps I judge too gently. But, mostly, I figure people should be judged gently.
Here’s an obituary notice:

And his website, not the prettiest. It was always kind of chaotic:
And some youtube videos:
