With a group there are - we could say paradoxically - as many different definitions as there are human groups. We are therefore called to mark the boundaries of the type of group we want to deal
with here and to define its specific characteristics. From our perspective, a group is an ensemble of people that is united by an interest in the common ideal of existential improvement, both in terms of their individual consciousness and the wider one that involves other human beings and the collective life. It deals therefore with a group that finds the motivation of its existence in awork in of service of human to evolution. This type of group must meet a first requirement: that the inner orientation is unanimous and freely chosen by all participants. Where this requirement is fulfilled - and becomes the starting point towards the realization of common objectives - we witness the birth of a real "entity". It is a new phenomenal reality, autonomous and endowed with its intrinsic vitality, which derives from the contributions of commitment and energy made available by the people who are part of it.
