* The first one or two names listed were suggested by Lazaris at several 4 day Intensives on the Enneagram, starting in April of 1993. You can get information about the Lazaris material at http://www.lazaris.com.
Although there is no information specifically about the Enneagram in the public library area of the Lazaris website, that public library contains much scintillating information on a wide variety of metaphysical and spiritual topics. There are also audio and video recordings from Intensives given by Lazaris about the Enneagram and from other workshops on MANY other topics.
