FOURTH WAY, LA

This is the name of the group in which I am posting various topics, some of which interest me and also on others than have less interest for me or for my aims,etc.  The members of this interesting and informative group all have made some energetic and exuberant postings, as well as a few that have stirred the pot, added some spice of controversy, and the usual seasonings.........Others invoke the 'PROTOCOL' either to rant for it or rant against it, and others to just keep things on 'an even keel' as they sail up and down, across and back, THE STREAMS & RIVERS that figure in much of the FOURTH WAY imagery......Some postings are erudite and 'scientific' while others appeal to the 'mystical/emotional/religious/etc' 'i's,machine(s), and so on.....Much of the discussion is apt to be, in my estimation, tipped towards the 'theoretical', the 'abstract', and make appeals to reason and rational thinking or special positions and stances and interests that sometimes carry one afield, though most are apt to have special associations that lure one in to the discussions, in a tempting manner.....Some participants lack an obvious sense of humor while others have a great deal of fun in innuendo, satire, irony, and the like......some step on toes and evoke the usual reactions to jabs and kicks and the like.....Great fun, great postings, and a sense of certain things 'GURDJIEFFIAN' if one can get off their 'official' soapboxes' even if they are in the open air of a park,which is,of course, FACE BOOK... This means that THE FOURTH WAY/THE WORK/ THE GURDJIEFF 'LEGACY' FOR MANKIND is now GLOBALIZED, accessible, available, and somewhat 'inexpensive' save for the efforts,energies, etc. one needs to actually work and access such..
