Heythere Moo’s own sister was shot by the Metropolitan Police in London in 1985, which then triggered the Brixton riots (she lived but was paralysed). Most probably his video is a personalised reaction to something he identifies closely with ie institutional police brutality/racism , rather than a generalised feeling of compassion for marginalised communities. This is of course only my opini

Heythere Great to see you’ve kept a sense-of-humour intact throughout your experience. Being able to laugh at our own follies is essential in maintaining a balanced outlook on life and our ability to screw it and ourselves up. In my brief interactions with the local sangha, it was evident there was a near-perfect correlation between the degree of devotion by ‘beloveds’ to phoney-Tony, and t

Don’t know if anybody else has come across these satirical spoofs, but they’re great at puncturing the bubble of nonsense created by Moo and the like. Lightens the mood too....

As a consequence I’ve not handled interactions with my friend very well. Getting better informed might help. However, from what you wrote it sounds like there is rarely much chance of outsiders penetrating t

Thanks Sahara It’s tricky isn’t it. So far my impression is that all interests she has are focussed in some way or other on Mooji. Actually she did recently state “this is the ONLY thing I’m interested in”. Kind of hard to see how to deflect someone’s attention away from that degree of obsession. I think she’s beyond the level 6 point of indoctrination on the scale you provided earlier, pe

Hello All. I am new to both this forum and the unsettling business of cults. The CEI site was recommended to me by the Cult Information Centre here in the UK. I’ve familiarised myself with your posts on the Tony Moo situation and feel this may be the correct place to share information, if perhaps only to endorse some of the queries and reports. Recently I met and became friends with a wom
