Did George Gurdjieff meet Leo Tolstoy?

Yes, Leo Tolstoy travelled as a youth to the western parts of Russia, some of the germanic-slavic countries, including Hungary and prussia and down to the czechoslav countries, through to turkey, and by ship back, passing through some greek islands. Tolstoy does mention meeting an Askhohy - a traditional storyteller, which is likely his rendering of Asokh. .NITBAFS
