An increased emphasis in Desteni on cutting ties with friends and family may be due to disapproval of friends and family...
Parents & Siblings are the Keepers of the PastIf You're Not Evil, You're NO GoodSunette Spies talks about family as
Memory Manipulation Entity PossessionAs most people are aware, cults separate those involved in such groups from their families and former friends.
In Desteni, family and friends are demonized, along with anyone else not in the
Desteni cult.
This coincides with a renewed emphasis on demons and demon-possession with more videos distributed on
DemonsDaily and
DesteniProdDemons and a new
Desteni cult website and forum devoted to 'demonology' at
http://demonology.co.za as advertized by Andrea Rossouw in
Demonology.co.za - Share your Demon experiencesUnder the heading, 'Demons and their Experiences', Anton LaVey and Aleister Crowley 'share their stories and perspectives', but at the time of writing the page is missing.
Presumably it is meant to show transcripts of, or video links to the talks they call 'interviews' by Sunette Spies where she pretends to be
Anton LaVey and
Aleister Crowley talking from beyond the grave.
Once again the pathetic
Desteni cult are cashing in on the 'supernatural'.
Or so it would seem...
They're not addressing supernatural phenomena or mythology of demons or demonology and related subjects as might be presumed, but generally anything they regard as being evil, which is humanity itself, according to the resident Desteni medicine man, Bernard 'the Beast' Poolman.
In
Ownership Causes Demon Possession he says demon possession will in the near future escalate to new heights. He means crime or wrong-doing, and names earth, 'Demonica', but ultimately, everyone with a mind. The way he sees it, 'mind-possession' is the same as 'demon-possession'.
In another strange video called
Hurting Yourself During Love Making or sex Poolman makes the prophecy that the takeover of mind-demons 'in this reality' is in the near future going to bring about an escalating situation in which serious injuries and death will occur simply as a result of sexual activity.
It would seem reasonable to expect that a website with the name
demonology.co.za would be aimed at people with an interest in the supernatural, the paranormal, exorcism, ghosts, or angels and demons, real or imagined, but the explanation is given that
"This website is open to all who would like to share their experiences or to ask questions, however please realise we do not support Religion, New Age/Enlightenment or any form of ‘ghost hunting’ or esoteric/religious demon exorcising."
In other words, for anyone interested in exploring the subject of demonology,
demonology.co.za is useless.
