The Friends of Fidelity
FOF is a vibrant and informal yahoo! group, a safe haven for folk who are
engaged on personal psychological and spiritual quests.
Many of you have read and studied the works of Idries Shah, and the focus
of
this group is in part the Sufi legacy, but moreso new phases of activity
and
ways ahead.
Essentially, it is a place to simply relax, enjoy yourself, chat about the
simple pleasures of life, open your heart and share the care. It would be
good to help generate a warm and peaceful, spiritually-conducive working
atmosphere here and to thus make a positive contribution to the well-being
of one-another and those around us.
Roving Brief
Members are free to explore any avenues they wish here (within reason),
even
where the things expressed appear to run contrary to authoritative
statements or deliberately set aside such authority. In the process
certain
things may be learnt first-hand that might not have otherwise come to
light
should certain givens and assumptions have been unquestioned, taken for
granted or strictly adhered to.
Ground Rules
Initially, messages from all new members will be briefly moderated. Please
note that trollish behaviour, ad hominems, flaming and the use of multiple
anonymous pseudonyms will not be tolerated and that we are all "bozos on
the
bus". Once you've settled in, please post an intelligible introductory
message telling us a little about yourself, before posting any other
message.
Opening your Heart
