I was involved with a desciple unknowingly. The desciple is a practicing therapist. He's currently under investigation. I've alerted every authority I could think of. Feel free to email me at lollie_84@yahoo.com if you would like to discuss this cult.

I would be interested in hearing something more about this. Did you ever go there yourself, and what sort of experience did you have. What made you decide that you should be involved if you weren't a member? I am an ex member of this organization

I was involved with NI for some years. Over that time I was pressured to "conform" more and more, give over my time, service and money. I felt a tremendous sense the most important thing was "obedience" and fitting in. Several times when I just relaxed and talked normally about everyday events someone would chastise me. No matter how often I went there I felt there was some big SECRET being guarded by the closest group around their leader. I believe that the majority of the people there are good decent people and the life they lead is pleasant in many ways. but underneath there is tremendous pain because of all the SECRETS and lies. Most of all I feel so sad that they are deluded into thinking that the meditation they do there will lead to some high enlightened state. Their leader has a lot of yogic power but I cannot believe that someone so vindictive and selfish is enlightened.
