I'm looking over his web site and I can provide some translations for Leonard-speak:
[i:6c5dab18fa]"Leonard also plans visits to yogi masters in Badrinath and Bombay. There will probably be more events and excursions scheduled once we get to India. As always, traveling with Leonard is an adventure, not a packaged tour. Leonard moves according to his guidance and his program is flexible. However, training dates are definitive."[/i:6c5dab18fa]
Translation:
Leonard will do whatever the hell he wants, he doesn't need to consider those who have paid to take this journey with him, for he is better than you all. If you expect schedules and honesty and professionalism, think again. Your expectations are a sign of your need for more rebirthing sessions, you are strangling the energy of the group, probably because of your own birth trauma. Breathe and be youthed.
You should be grateful for this opportunity to be with him. Everything he does is to assist your healing. So what if he doesn't speak for long periods of time, so what if he mumbles, so what if he turns and walks away while you are in mid sentence. He's a holy man.
Oh and there are rumors that he sometimes outright abandons program members in far off countries, without making sure they are safe and secure and healthy and able to get back home. But they just don't understand. They are still in their death mentality. Feel abandoned when Leonard simply disappears on that world tour while in Poland, India, Australia? Feel left behind and traumatized because you spent all that money and you are suddenly all alone in a country you are not familiar with? Why, once again, that is your birth trauma. You create your own reality, so if you don't like this one, create another.
Note also that we said the training dates are -definitive-. Not definite.
[i:6c5dab18fa]"Spontaneous hyperventilation is nature’s way of teaching people that they need to learn Rebirthing-Breathwork. Soon after Rebirthing became a successful nationwide movement in the 70’s, I was invited twice by doctors to lecture at the National Institute of Health in Bethesda on the subject, "Rebirthing – the Cure for Hyperventilation". "[/i:6c5dab18fa]
It is a perfect con, convince people that only I know the truth about something as basic as breathing. Just nod and smile as I lie lie lie. Aren't you impressed that I created a nationwide movement? Aren't you impressed that doctors invited me -twice- to give a lecture? I am a man with a plan, a man with the key to unlock the mystery of what everyone else calls a panic attack.
Don't pay any attention to the fact that I am a consumate bull shit artist. Besides, that is just another sign of my superiority.
[i:6c5dab18fa]"The three basic causes of death are:
ignorance
emotional energy pollution
poor diet.
Therefore, to master death you have to do three things:
Master the idea of physical immortality, which involves living from Spirit, our natural divinity.
Unravel our own death urge, which we received from our parents and encourage all the people in our environment to do the same. Learn how to keep our energy body & emotional mind clean and balanced through spiritual purification practices.
Learn the power of nutrition and fasting and the other simple and pleasurable habits that give us body mastery. Becoming a vegetarian is basic! "[/i:6c5dab18fa]
Most everyone is freaked out about death and everyone has to breathe, so I've nearly cornered the market here with this one. A perfect set up. Because if you die, I can always say you did it wrong, you didn't listen to me, you didn't give me enough money, you didn't rebirth enough, and you had bad vibes.
If you live, and notice that I've screwed you over, well, I can always blame your parents. They caused your original birth trauma and if you don't do as I say, your death urge might just kill you. Can't say I didn't tell you so.
[i:6c5dab18fa]"Our organization has to keep our priorities right. We have to carefully and sensitively maintain an organization that is not lost in techniques, human power games, emotional problems – including birth trauma, parental disapproval syndrome, death urge and greed - in any way that consciously or unconsciously causes us to lose the Power and Presence of God. Organizations are created by their members."[/i:6c5dab18fa]
And our organization is all about control. No room for doubts, discussion, independent thinking. You dare question and we'll shame you back into smiling submission.
[i:6c5dab18fa]"Philosophers teach with words; yogis teach with Energy - positive Life changing seeds of Energy that go on healing us forever. I've been this kind of yogi for over 30 years - even before Babaji made me aware of it. And Babaji gave me many new powers. I still don't understand them all. I just watch them work with a sense of wonder."[/i:6c5dab18fa]
When I say for 2 thousand dollars you will get a private session with me, I don't mean I will necessarily have to be present. I teach with energy, I can guide you without needing to be in the room. One of those new powers Babaji gave me.
