Going Clear movie release!
A great new film about Scientology is about to be released called Going Clear, focusing on the "Prison of Belief" and how difficult it is to leave once you are in.
"Going Clear is not only the single best film or television show made about Scientology, it’s masterful storytelling and it packs a serious punch squarely at the people who have allowed the organization’s abuse to go along for so long. Tom Cruise and John Travolta, you are now on notice."

Tibetan Buddhism is not true Buddhism.
From an anonymous ex-cult member about the faculty at Naropa University in Boulder, CO:
"All the faculty at Naropa that were Trungpa students, and now the Sakyong's Shambhala students, have taken a vow of loyalty to their gurus, and their guru worshipping cult covers up and denies anything negative. Their vows to their gurus, maintained with fear of hell realms, and group-think and group coercion in the cult of Shambhala International turns them into 'compartmentalized cult members' who can speak and seem reasonable even intelligence, but they have taken vows from their dead master Trungpa to create an Enlightened Society based on a theocratic dictatorship of Lama Kings, and they are still mind controlled by their dead Lama even their dead ones.
How do I know? I was a Shambhala /Vajradhatu cult member for almost 20 years. It took me another 10 to come out completely, even after hooking up with another phony Lama, very popular in the west and friend and protector of Randy Sogyal with a second multimillion dollar lawsuit for sexual abusing and physically abusing hundreds of women and turning them into slaves , like Sharon Stern became. They all use the tantric techniques of these Lamas, as this Japanese teacher did, that is why he was attracted to Naropa, he knew he could get away with it. These vows to their gurus, supercedes ethics, laws, and all the western Canon. know I was one of them. Tibetan Hindu Tantra which is really what these Lama groups , like Shambhala, (there is no separation between Shambhala a.k.a. Vajradhatu, and Naropa's Board that includes the same energy of students still controlling the vows of secrecy and the coverups that they have been engaged in for 40 years with their gurus, is the same energy that is driving the sexual abuse, the corruptions financially, the ignoring of abuse by visiting faculty, and now, the Dalai Lama is coming to give Naropa some shine in 2015 and to cover up the guru abuse that is driving this sick dysfunctional place, The Dalai Lama always comes to help out other places or centers where there are scandals. He came to Sogyal Rinpoche's 8 million dollar Lerab Ling to consecrate it and give it 'shine' when all his sexual abuses were becoming big news, 100's of women he has made into his slaves. Pema Chodrin, Judith Leif , Judith Simmer Brown, all at Naropa still? They have all taken these vows and they were very young when they met Trungpa who turned their minds away from the world, and into this guru worshipping Lamaism. It is the kind of mind control that is like a Manchurian Candidate, they can appear very rational, articulate, and reasonable, but they are not, they are divided minds and their are totally loyal to their guru and his commands. and if fact the Lamas have been colluding with the Chinese to build up their merged 'religion".
Tibetan Buddhism, which is really Lamaism, is the underlying energy that is allowing all these guru worshipping cults to thrive. The Dalai Lama and his Mind and Life Institute has infiltrated into all of our western higher education institutes and this energy is causing the confusion around sexuality and causing a more 'dumbed down ' population into demons and deities, and the supernatural and all things medieval and they don't even bother with history or facts anymore, since they are being told 'all is an illusion' that is the main meme,. Trungpa was here to do the same thing, undermine democracy from the inside out, its just that he spoke opening about doing this (see Poetry Wars ) he always spoke of hating democracy, and wanted to create an Enlightened Dictatorship of Tantric Vajrayana Gurus. He was a delusional alcoholic at the end, and no matter how his teachings appeal, his goal like the Dalai Lama's is to undermine democracy from the inside out, by getting to young people, at confusing them, and destroying their reasoning and cognitive abilities and the ability to discern right from wrong, in other words turn them into cult members. like at Naropa.
Until people start looking at the 'root' of the infection, i.e. Tibetan 'Buddhism' and its Hindu Tantric guru worship and institutionalized sexual abuse of women and little boys in the monasteries, ( little boys who are sexually abused can often become abusers themselves) than no one is going get at the root of the sickness that is causing all this craziness at Naropa and the general cult explosion. Guru Worship and sexual abuse is institutionalized at Naropa because of its underlying root view, that is connected still to the Hindu Vajrayana Tantra. That is why Trungpa was sleeping around, that is why Osel was sleeping around, that is why Sogyal Rinpoche, and why so many of these Lamas are sleeping around, they are admonished to have constant sex with female students for their 'higher bliss practices' that is all Osel Tenzdin meant when he said he had 'higher practices' to prevent others from getting AIDS. These are the practices of the higher Tantras that all the gurus and their "advanced students" practice.

From a parent whose child is in the Hare Krishnas...
BE WARNED:
DANGEROUS CULT ON FLORIDA COLLEGE CAMPUSES
• DESTROYING KIDS
• DESTROYING LIVES
• DESTROYING FAMILIES.
The C-U-L-T: International Society for Krishna Consciousness, A/K/A ISKCON and Hare Krishna.
Is eating an Iskcon vegetarian/vegan lunch on campus or going to an Iskcon Mantra Meditation group class harmless? How about love-bombing and instant friends?
Yes if your kid unknowingly gets recruited by a slick sociopath on campus to trick your kid using tried and true mind control methods of cults to get you to join their group. Kids don’t join, they get recruited.
It can happen to your kid at the University of Florida (“UF”), Florida State University (“FSU”), University of Central Florida (“UCF”) or any college campus in the country.
You will know your kid is in a C-U-L-T when you hear things such as: “I’m happy, everyone is nice”, “I’m not into the material world, and money doesn’t mean anything to me”.
I know personally, and there are dramatic and troubling concerns when you send your kid to college and instead of getting a college education, they get indoctrinated into a mind numbing, mind controlling cult.
Your kid will go through the short list I compiled below:
Personality change where you say, she/he is a different person or I don't know her/him anymore.
Dramatic shift of values and beliefs.
Changes in diet and sleep habits.
Celibate-no nookie.
Refusal to attend important family events, or spend time during breaks with anyone except the group.
Inability to make critical thinking decisions without consulting the group, leader or guru.
Sudden use of a new ideology to explain everything.
Black and white, simplistic reasoning.
Changes in appearance, looks and attire, i.e. clothes, hair, etc.
Now if you move into the Temple, or compound, well then you are really screwed
Change your name.
Only take cold showers, which must be fun when the temperature is in the 30’s or below
Wipe your ass with your hand and water only, no toilet paper. (Yep they serve food on campus).
Gets up at 4:00 am to chant the mantra under the influence of transcendental meditation (no thought) on their wooden beaded necklace, the necklace has 108-beads on it, and you have to do the mantra 16-times for each wooden bead, which equals no less than 1,728 times a day, every single day, that’s 630,000 times a year.
Ok let’s start as there is sixteen (16) words that you have say 1,728 times:
hare kṛṣṇa hare kṛṣṇa
kṛṣṇa kṛṣṇa hare hare
hare rāma hare rāma
rāma rāma hare hare
Now say it 1,727 more times, every morning of every day.
Now I can tell you -say anything this many times, no matter what you say, and you will believe in anything.
The group’s insistence that your kid sell the groups fantasy scripture books and also recruit others unknowingly instead of enjoying time with friends and family, especially over the holidays.
Work 10-12 hours a day and spend time only with the group each and every day, which includes chanting the mantra, mediation, learning scriptures, singing, dancing, playing the same music, but mostly free slave labor for the group’s activities i.e. cooking, cleaning, serving food, sell books, recruit others and getting further and further indoctrinated away from reality each and every waking hour with only the group and no other outside influences like family, friends, newspapers, TVs, non-group books, current events.
The pseudo personality, trance-like, robotic-like unrecognizable loving kid is no more, yep the kid has been so controlled and influenced and under so much stress, duress, anxiety and fear, it will be shocking and revolting that you will want to do something right away, right?
Oops no sorry you can’t anything, your kid is an adult, and is so indoctrinated, so messed up, so involved with the group dogma and doctrines that if you dare say what any normal, loving parents would say i.e.: “You’re in a cult” and “you’re being brainwashed”
From the groups prospective, you’re “Maya”, the devil in your kids mind because you are stopping your kid from reaching their spiritual potential, from being enlightened, to be able to be reincarnated to live forever.
And whenever your kid is feeling pressure and stress under this control, yep, it’s because your kid didn’t chant enough, so chant some more.
In the beginning, I would explain the kid’s state as in a robotic like trance. Now there is no rational, critical thinking whatsoever. Yes, there was a pronounced cult influence using various mind control techniques that are mind numbing, mind controlling that change a normal healthy kid to a fanatical nut that is shocking to anyone who knew the kid pre-cult.
These kids will have lingering psychological issues, even after one gets out. The psychological damage continues when still in, and will be in the kids head for a prolonged period of time when out as so many ex Iskcon and ex Hare Krishna members have pointed out.
The daily programming of five (5) hours before the day even begins is clear how this brainwashing program overwhelms the mind. Even if the kid gets out, there is a vast amount of work to be done to clear out the damage and to break the patterns after being so involved. It's really hard to recognize the behavior patterns, especially with this type of heavy indoctrination. It's impossible to not have residual damage and cult-like behavior patterns forever. Having everything about one's individuality stripped away is devastating, and fighting the way back to a personal identity is really, really hard work. The underlying current that slowly grinds your sense of self to powder through physical and mental exhaustion, so it can be dissolved in guilt and inadequacy. An environment in which you are expected to replace your very being with a shrink-wrapped version of Indian village life of yore, dressed up with the trappings of fairy tales.
I’m sorry to say, I know.
Don't make the same mistake twice. Say no to reincarnation. Chant Hare Krishna and go back."
