My head spins so fast whenever I try to follow the "logic" and "sense" in lgat "teachings". They're all about redefining, reframing, rethis, rethat.
The exact point ISN'T logic and sense.... the point is to overload your critical thinking system with double binds, non sequiturs, emotional flooding, exhaustion, until you don't have your day to day protective bullshit detectors up and running.... LEC has a marvellous line for justifying their actions "we're more on your side than you are " (that's a scripted comeback they memorize, just in case).... translation: "anything you do to shield yourself is harming you, so stop thinking and go with our process, because you are too fucking dumb to get what we are all about".
So well said, nutrino! I wasn't involved in LEC but the lgat I was conned by said "trust the process". Our "work" was to question our beliefs and to discard problematic (according to them) ones and adopt the ones we were told to adopt (theirs). The new beliefs relieved us of thinking at all.
Re VICTIM thinking, the sick twist is that: lgats victimize/prey upon trusting/searching people ~ AND THEN ~ disallow them to see themselves as victims! They have been programmed to not see what has been done to them, as language and concepts which would describe their situation are TABOO. What a bind!
