It amazes me that there are still many who feel the need to defend their past in the FOF, or their past student of the ideas of Fourth Way. This is typical of ex-members of a sect (including myself) who do not want to face the pain of having made a mistake. This indicates that we are still mired in the same thought patterns that we learned in Fof and that we are not yet healed. We did a mistake to go in that sect, as well as to stay, realizing it takes time.
way: it is a cult, a sect, a sect. The fact that you question it shows that we have not freed from the "sectarian thinking." It is not a group. It is not an organization. It is a cult. And you and I've been there.
However, I want to say that I'm gradually realizing that the most serious mistake of my life has been 1) to enter the sect, 2) stay there so long, but 3) the most important and positive step in my activity was left.
cha think is right not to look at anything in our lives as a "waste", but I think it's interesting that most of us who have been in FoF - as well as those who entered in the other seven - are extremely difficult to use words like WASTE or error, as well as many, many other words. The word cult, for example, falls into this series. No words can describe this better than the nature of the FOF. It is simply too painful for us to admit - or rather, sometimes it is.
For the most part, we realize, but we do not want to admit it either to ourselves or others, to be entered into a cult. And you know what? - This is a deep, profound reason for which is been so difficult to leave, and a deep reason why it is difficult for our friends leave.
There are words that are powerful. The omission of certain words can be even more powerful
.
from the waste, and the big mistake we all made to follow that person, something can possibly arise. (And probably, I should add a big question mark in this statement). I believe in transformation - and I learned mostly on it out here in the real world, not in Fof .
In total agreement, I just want to add my opinion: I think that they should recognize that it was in a cult, I do not reduce, not rob me experience, do not hurt me. I will not be so afraid to experience what we have learned to label as "negative", to the point of suppressing all thought "divergent" in us. I consider these feelings rather like a bee, or an insect that has its function in the universe. I try to live without pain dismiss this intimate, we are strong enough. I prefer to feel sad or negative, rather than extinguish any fire within me. And rather than force me still to think that FoF was a "wonderful experience". And who cares anyway.
admitting they had been in a cult, it can free (as well as help altri a farlo) e, per parafrasare la conoscenza della Quarta Via, ci permette di chiudere qualcosa per poter passare a qualcosa d’altro, per lo meno dentro di noi. Ma sul serio, non per finta.
Aver ancora paura dimostra che non siamo ancora liberi.
