Heather, you are really brave. I recommend the book "The Other Half of the Mountain" by McCall Erickson which is about how to find meaning when all paths seem to have lead to a dead end. Then compare that to Hesse's "Siddhartha". I too am trying to figure this out after waking up about the path I was on. Ruth

Hi Heather, I was in SRF from 1979 to 1990 but the abuse I suffered because of it seems very minor compared to yours. I am trying to not be in despair because of the disillusionment. A book is coming to me which may help: "The Second Half of the Mountain" by McCall Erickson. BTW, don't let anyone try to use Byron Katie's ideas to help you because they are abusive. I wish you
