: Until insight is gained, we accept a false sense of reality and believe : Our predominant fault to be a virtue. The Enneagram helps us to recognize : our fixation and provide more choice. The fault is now a well-honed skill : that can be used in positive, beneficial way, no longer as a vice, but as : a real virtue. : Many people object to the subjective, religious aspect of the above and : approach the subject differently. The names given types by various authors : involve descriptors of the chief attributes: Reformer/Achiever, Helper, : Succeeder/Achiever, Individualist/Artist, etc. capture nature of "redeemed" : types. Naranjo uses names that accent the pathology (happiness through : masochism, the persecuted persecutor.)) : Perhaps, the word "constantly" caught your interest. That is a matter of : opinion and placement of attention (IMO.) What we see is often what we get. : I do see transforming potential in the Enneagram. I do not equate that with : a religious experience. I am not trying to be better, just less fixated. : In my case, it is because I am more comfortable and less conflicted. I am : still a nine though. I hope I am less entrapped.
