We’ve found the tips shared here to help not only online on Gaia but also in our off-line communications!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Please remember these messages are not
RULES that HAVE to be followed, but tips
that can be used if you would like to enhance your community experience
on Gaia. Use your own individuality and discretion while reading the
tips.
- This is not your Emily Post
etiquette or even Netiquette – though online etiquette may be discussed.
- This is not really a ”
How To” Group, though we may discuss how-tos here as well.For the actual information on how to use Gaia features, please see the Gaia Team’s How Tos and FAQs Group. - This
is not really a “let’s chat about any topic” group; which is what the
Gaia Lounge and other great groups are for, on Gaia. See Groups / Pods we Love on Gaia
Let us follow the rules of constructive conversation. The moderators will try to ensure this and that discussions flow smoothly.
We hope you enjoy your experience on Gaia; and if this group helps to enhance it, we hope you will share how!
Meenakshi, Amber, 1Vector3/“OM” and~KES/Kathy:Group moderators
Are we making allowances for the other person’s right to a different
point of view? Right and wrong are not always black and white. Before I
take a positive stand, it would be wise first to make sure that it is
reasonable, and then that I have taken into account all possible
reasons against my `right’ point of view. An open mind is a handy thing
to have when once I become willing to Live and Let Live.
Let me not force my own certainties
On others. I could be wrong. A
Generous tolerance can smooth out
many rough places in my day-to-
day living.
- One Day At a Time in Al-Anon
Understand the thoughts of others if you would understand your own.
Be kind to others if you would be kind to yourself.
- Paramahansa Yogananda
Our
minds become restless because wherever we go, we see the faults and
defaults and defects in others. This is not the point of view that we
should take. Look carefully at what is of value in the person and
respect that. Forget what we have seen to be lacking. When we go to a
place or meet someone new, instead of trying to find their faults and
criticize them, try to see the good and appreciate that. You should
only look at those qualities in which you are lacking. In this way, you
will always see the good and this will end your sorrow.
- Mata Amritanandamayi (Ammachi), ‘Awaken Children’
On
15th January 2008, the wonderful community of Zaadz was renamed Gaia.
It’s still ‘Powered by Zaadz’. Our pod title was changed to reflect
this. Z-NETWORK:Enhancing your community experience on Zaadz became Enhancing your community experience on Zaadz /Gaia and then Enhance your Gaia community experience on March 1 2008
On May 2nd, 2008, we changed our name to Gaia Networking - Enhance Your Community Experience.
As pods are increasingly being called Groups, we are incorporating that into our description as well.
