responses, and by having a living, breathing spiritual practice of kindness, selfless love, and creative expression. So, what is this group about? Maybe it is about not having something about anything in particular.
Perhaps it is a place of spontaneity, trust, joy, shared suffering and forgiveness, and most importantly, the burning of those structures that seem important but obscure our vision while causing confusion and self-delusion. But we can change that at any moment! We are free!

New members: If you have your profile on private… fine!!! but one of the mods or cultivator require to see who our members are as we keep this group safe for all.
This is only fair to all members. ~KES
For this Group: Sex is Sacred and therefore intimate
not for public consumption.
Be thoughtful of topics you choose to speak of and how it affects others knowing there are plenty of other groups on Gaia if you are passionate about an area that isn't the greatest good for the greatest number.
We have teens here so watch the cussing.
We reserve the right to not service those that are upstaging or starting battles that upset the group. When one is broken up so are the rest so it is best to be considerate. This is done as a volunteer service to help humankind.
When it got out of hand Leigh-Anne gave this briefing to someone that was acting up baiting the cultivation changes and edits. There are not many but when we have to change a major thing, you will get a note privately of that. If you have a pain/emotional issue bring it to Gaia Networking and it will get an answer. If you cannot be civil, you are done. There is no room for discussion. No respect, equals an open door out. You will not behave this way in this group - period. Respect what has expressed to you, or any other mod in this group. If this were a retreat, you would have been asked to leave several days ago with a firm clout to the head. I assume nothing - in this moment, I am in the room with you, and you were saying these things in my house, you would be on the doorstep faster than your head would spin. Do not pretend for one moment that you know more or any better than any single person in this group - or that your word games, assinine attitude will advance your understanding of the teachings of Zen or Buddhism in general. I do not pretend to be your teacher, or anyone who would spend time leading you along the path of enlightenment. Enough. You have been given ample allowance for ignorant behavior. Stay, learn, and share, or don't. No one is interested in pandering to your ego.
This group is very special to me as you are. I hope that group will understand my position on this matter - this is not the time to engage in stupid and regretful behavior. We are given a task here to move forward, and not be drawn down by petty indifference. We must grow up together, move on, and face only what makes a meaningful difference in the world and work we are engaged in right in this moment. This is what matters. Plain and simple. Move on or don't.
