Not gonna argue with the links Tee. Anyone checking in, be sure to read them, not just the headlines.
At the time, it probably saved me from further deterioration into my various addictions, but at a cost of learning some over simplified coping mechanisms and social skills. The skills worked great within the group, and they crossed over with other similar Reiki and Course In Miracles groups. Plenty of successful people endorse the central courses, but that can be said of Scientology too, so, anyway. The continual push to do another seminar, another of the short courses like time management or whatever eventually wears on you. They don’t do shunning, but there isn’t an easy path out either. One of the main premises (then, maybe not now) is constantly challenging yourself. That’s fine, but getting more “guests” and doing more seminars are the most likely challenges, so it’s feeding on itself. More than one person said to me something like “hey, I just cut my first album, or I went to Spain, but no one acknowledged me for that.”
