>> I had the privilege to study with Angeles for a few years at CIIS and to interview her for my dissertation on open space. 
>> 
>> Rooted in her Basque mystical tradition, she was uniquely gifted in braiding the indigenous worldview with the modern western in a way from which all could learn.
>> 
>> Early on, she noted that the four principles of OS are "principles of detachment" that are central to the fourth thread of her Fourfold Way. 
>> 
>> Seemed to me that OS is a method that supports a collective to engage the entire Fourfold Way together. With the minimal appropriate structure needed to support such a collective "wayfinding" journey. Michael Herman, Chris Corrigan and others have written on this too.
>> 
>> She showed me how the OS closing circle is congruent with the "return and giveaway" which culminates many indigenous ceremonies; a spiritual and practical harvest from our individual and collective journeys 'across the open space' as Harrison wrote in his book on Spirit.
>> 
>> This all allowed us to consider OS a kind of Trojan Horse (or the new formulation Trojan Mouse - among the dinosaurs?) to bring indigenous wisdom into modern institutions in a braided way.
>> 
>> We were and are blessed by her gifts and her amazing storytelling and warm hearted presence.

>> Oooh what a loss. Angeles has been with me for many years, although I never met her. I had hoped to meet you soon to grasp more of your profound wisdom. 
>> 
>> The teachings of "The fourfold way" have meant a lot to me
>> The four ways of spirit: 
>> Show up and be fully present
>> Tell the truth without blame or judgement
>> Follow what has heart and meaning to you
>> Be open to outcome, not attached
>> 
>> Still working on it…and will keep on...
>> Thanks Angeles Arrien
