Healing group conflict?

janos said Aug 22, 2007, 2:51 PM:

Could the healing team have helped the conflicted groups here?

The recent experience of conflict and anger that errupted in some of the threads here, made me wonder if experise in this group would be relevant to this kind of problem.

I am biased in favor of healing being the perspective, action and focus of life on earth. I take healing as returning to wholeness - which is impossible if we feel disconnected within ourselves or with others.

“Becoming a healer” is another way of saying we are becoming aware of the healing energy of the universe, and bringing it down into everyday ego/smallself/ material world.
“Asking for healing” is another way of asking to become whole again…a memory we all seem to share.

“Not asking for healing” or believing in it, is a game we play; how much can we fragment ourselves and still be the light?

I think healing a group conflict is as much as healing the human body. A lot of doctors would see a sore muscle. They prescribe a drug, maybe a massage. We feel better and move on.
But some doctors would ask where the sore muscles comes from. A tensed way of walking because of a tensed mind? So we need to heal our emotional issues in order to heal the way we walk, so the muscle won't get sore again. Holistic healing of the community body might be a way.

Best wishes

There shouldn't even BE any group conflict!

How did it erupt around our round table -
I wonder -in the first place?

Easy to say, sandy. Because we are human beings. In fact I think group and conflict is no contradiction at all. I personally think that we easily agree on changing the world, but we easily argue about the way and the method, because too many people think their method is the ultimate choice.
And on top of that, instead of making an active change for the better in the world, a lot of people seem to be far busier trying to explain God, the universe and whatever else. There is a lot of potential for conflict, sandy. Zaadz is only a small mirror for the real world.

Chrysalis -group and confilct is in our
everyday lives -
I don't think we should have it here -
zaadz is special.
There are many different pods for those still questioning
their spirituality and there is the vs God debate -
everything one could want -so it doesn't need to be
bought here to this pod.
If we are a mirror-then we need to look at it through
different eyes.

Which is why many important people left this Pod, saying that “they have enough stress and arguments in real life, they don't need it here”. And that's true. But then you don't need to convert me. I'm with you on this. It would be awesome to leave any spiritual agenda at the door and be here as human beings.

This Pod has been VERY quiet for a few days now, compared to the first week, so we might get to see if anything's changed.

positive.
And I am sorry some people have left -
but as they say
“If you can't stand the heat -you get out of the Kitchen”!

Group Mind, the phrase marking a future development of great power for good or ill!

Thank you Nzira, for bringing this up.

Where two or more are gathered together… in my name…
In whose name and/or for what purpose is vitally important.

One of the best treatises on this esoteric science is Discipleship In The New Age, by Alice Bailey (but beware of the ignorant and malicious hostility one may come across on the web about the works of this author).

If there is any interest in this Esoterics would be the best place to expand on it

Sandy,

it has been a different kind of heat. This is a good example: http://pods.zaadz.com/knights_roundtable/discussions/view/173931#175576

However, like you said, there shouldn't even be heat. But I'm sure you also understand how discussions become arguments, often because people don't stay focused, they lose track and end up in a sub-discussion being suprised how they even got there. Like just in here. We discuss group conflict. If we want to discuss group mind, the Psychology category might be much more appropriate. This is a “do”-Pod, not a “talk”-Pod, which is difficult for some people to accept, apparently.

Best wishes

The intellectual mind to do is to read and study, and discern the information. With this, the only way to express this passion is through a tough yet firm expression of ones beliefs.

Beliefs are but an expression of “core beliefs” either learned or passed down from social structure. If others are taking offense to the rebuttal, they are in-turn failing to realize the growth potential in the reply.

Yes I do agree some of the posts where a little to much on the rude side, but when well read individual's are attacked, being so attached to their beliefs, it is to be expected.

It is still a great POD regardless of who is coming or leaving.
