also, these days another can buy a tiny micro-camera the size of a pen, and use it to record anything. And One Taste is deliberately using viral marketing of the "sex-cult" angle, so that is going to attract people to pay to engage in the One Taste "group sex". Of course, One Taste doesn't call it that, they try to reframe what they do as some New Agey sex therapy, whi

Another point. If you become involved with OT, how can you be sure your confidentiality will be protected? Later in life, you may be offered job opportunities that require security clearances. You may be engaged to be married and your past flirtation with One Taste might become an embarassment. Another point. Suppose you yourself are famous and or have brag worthy connection

Another warning sign from the One Taste "marketing" is how they have dealt with the allegations that One Taste by Nicole Daedone, Reese Jones, and others, are using manipulative and "cultic" techniques to lure people in, and exploit them. Instead of looking at it objectively, the One Taste owners have decided to use it as viral marketing. so One Taste has cynically embrace

Notice this thread identified the Victor Baranco sex-cult roots of One Taste years before the media. And also identified the bald-faced lies by the leader of One Taste on that issue. Bald-faced brazen lying is generally a "clue" something is amiss...ya think? Its shocking and unbelievable the level of brazen propaganda being sold by One Taste to the credulous "media" in v

Is confidentiality protected in these kinds of 'cutting edge' groups? Are you given signed statements that your confientiality will be protected. That you will not be filmed or voice recorded without your permission?

More information on purchasing power around 1970-1972. In his biography, Sammy Hagar tells us his expenses in 1973 in the San Francisco Bay Area -- right where Baranco was purchasing houses and charging $200 a month room and board to those wanting to live in his communes--plus expecting them dibate labor fixing up his properties. (See above) Hagar tells us: Quote"I got my $ 5,000. I

According to the article in Mindfuckers, (page 112) "full time residents pay $200 a month rent, wgucg entitles them to room and board, parties, affection, and the opportunity to restore dilapidated houses for Victor." Besides rental fees, $384,000 a year, the Institute also collects money from some 70-odd weekly courses at $45 each." (Mindfuckers was published in 1972.) So

Many, including Baranco's young disciple, assume rhetoric is the "art of persuasion". Here is what Aristotle says. Baranco may have given that young man partial information about rhetoric and let him believe that was complete information about rhetoric. Here is what Aristotle, the most influential classical authority on rhetoric said about the subject. And Aristotle would ha

Sounds like these alleged "writers" at whimsymedia.com are either totally naive, completely incompetent in "journalism", or simply work in advertising directly, (or through brown envelopes full of cash), and publish the press release of whoever pays.

Definition of perfect is no need for further change. Complete. Going by this text, Baranco re-defined 'perfect' as capable of further change. Which loaded the language by taking a word (in this case perfect) and redefining it to mean its opposite.

Victor Baranco's Flash to Perfection May 1966 Vic, realizing he was the perceiver and judge of his experiences and thereby the creator, concluded that he was perfect, and everybody and everyone else was too. Further that perfection includes the potential for change. Note that this is a twist on language. The commonly accepted definitions of 'perfect' imply completion,

Unfortunately, that always happens with Wikipedia with these cultish sects. Because members of the sect are assigned the task of cleansing Wikipedia by the Guru, or just take it upon themselves. They will spend months constantly trying to delete any criticism of their Guru. So Ching Hai most likely assigned a group of her people to monitor the Wikipedia entry. There is one way to deal wit

To add to our portfolio, get and read a book review published a couple of weeks in the Wall Street Journal.
