  • Devotees of THE LOVE GURU
    Name:
    Devotees of THE LOVE GURU
    Status: Member
    Description: Hello Beliefnet! I am his holiness, the Guru Pitka. I am the orphaned child of two American missionaries who after dying left me at a remote Indian village, where I was adopted by the great Guru Tugginmapuddah, and raised to travel the world, healing all emotional woes, free trapped souls from their internal torment, and offer my own brand of spiritual road map for those who seek it. And if YOU seek my spiritual road map this is the group for you! I encourage questions and discussions about loving, feeling, being, my best selling books ("If you're happy and you know it, think again," "Eight days to happiness in six weeks" and many others), playing the sitar, marshmallow yummies for your heart tummy or anything that moves you.

    Description: This group serves as an extension of the popular "Beyond Blue" blog (http://www.beliefnet.com/beyondblue/) and will provide an opportunity for readers to get to know each other better. My hope is that, like my blog, it will become a supportive network for those suffering from depression or any other mental illness.
  • Kathy Smith's Spiritual Walking
    Name:
    Kathy Smith's Spiritual Walking
    Status: Member
    Description: One thing I've learned in our Spiritual Walking Group is that finding a network of people that support your efforts is a major factor in achieving your goals. With this idea in mind, Beliefnet and I are pleased to announce "America Walks with Kathy Smith," a 10-month journey that we hope will allow us to support each other in our quests to accomplish our individual aspirations, but also to work toward a common goal as a group: to be healthier in our bodies, minds, spirits, homes, schools, and planet. Every month, from now through October 4th, 2008 (the official date of the walk), I'll help us focus on different aspects of walking, personal growth, and spiritual connection. Within each month's theme, we'll also have some fun with a monthly contest and prize. As we proceed, we'll build a community of walkers, touching lives across the country with our anecdotes, our struggles, and our ever-growing support system. As we take this journey together, I encourage you to reach out to friends and family and invite them to participate. And as our group culminates with the Walk Across America on October 4th, we'll hand off a "virtual baton" from one walker to the next - symbolizing our personal goals (weight loss, lowering blood pressure, increasing energy), and at the same time, uniting in our mission to create a healthier America and a healthier world.
  • Bnetters Against Activity Feed!
    Name:
    Bnetters Against Activity Feed!
    Status: Member
    Description: Bnetters Against Activity Feed! is an ecumenical, cross-platform, "SINGLE ISSUE VOTER" kind of group!! The intrusive Activity Feed should either be removed altogether or an ability to OPT OUT should be provided. I like my Bnet Buds otherwise we wouldn’t be friends, but does this mean I want a “shout out” every time I rate a photo, post a comment on someone's profile, change my own profile, write a journal entry or make a new friend? NOOOOO! Let's join hands to register our dissatisfaction with this intrusion by visiting the PETITION thread! We’re not Facebook, MySpace or Linked In! We’re Beliefnet! :) As members of Bnetters Against Activity Feed! you have an opportunity to register your discontent with this alleged “enhancement” initiated by Beliefnet in June of 2008. Despite assurances from staff that they're "looking into" methods to either disable this feature or make it optional, nearly 4 months later nothing has been done. At first glance, this is a very small problem. Yet when you place these Activity feeds in the larger context of online privacy, FISA and how the accessibility of online information plays into counter-terrorism meaures, perhaps this problem isn't as small or unimportant as first meets the eye! Bnet Administration modeled the activity feed after Face Book. Are you aware that Facebook members protested against this to the point that Face Book woke up and made it optional? http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1532225,00.html
