The Jeff Farrell Affair – Part 3: Personal Experiences October 24, 2010 9:40 pm As mentioned in part 1 of this story, “The Jeff Farrell Affair – Part 1: A Positive Beginning”, Jeff Farrell attended some introductory Gnostic courses and meditation practices online and at the Toronto Gnostic Centre for under six months. During this time, I observed that he tried the various exercises and readings i

Here is my response to the first post, so far. Wow this is special. Why are personal attacks justified by this divine master?

I have decided to create a seperate post here to deal with claims made by the Gnostic Movement of Mark Pritchard (aka Belzebuub, aka Belzebub), by Pritchard and by his agents that their right to freedom of religion, spirituality and worship is being attack. I have done this because I think it is a very serious accusation and a very serious matter. Clearly this is being done to avoid actually

I am exciting to have finally come to understand Belzebuubs teaching on anger and to understand it fully. Now I understand that anger is a horrible vial thing, unless you are using it to defend the Gnostic Movement or Mark or Edith Pritchard. Also if you use it to manipulate and indoctrinate a "student" than that is ok too.

In relation to the matter of freedom of religion I would like to dispute the Pritchards claim that the modern equivalent of the term heretic is cult. Really termonology has not actually changed that much. The actual modern equivilent of the term heretic is heretic. (Would some buy this guy a dictionary already?) It really is unfortunate that we use the term cult to mean a dangerous religio

I'm sure the leadership of the Gnostic Movement has heard the expression "let sleeping dogs lie"? Well after you have personally attacked me, I would just like to say woof, woof!

As perhaps a final note on the matter that I have been discussing I would like mention how my privacy has been violated, particularly in the light of the Gnostic Movements privacy statement. ” The Gnostic Movement is committed to your privacy.

Thanks PiscesRising, its really great to have your support. I'm really curious to know what I've lied about here. Or is that just wishful, delusional thinking on Jordans part? Maybe Jordan can help us out or maybe someone else has noticed factual errors I have made. I'm open to criticism.

These are my responses so far to the responses of Jordans posts. I've posted them here in case they get deleted. jefffarrell Your comment is awaiting moderation. You ask who would do this? How about someone who feels betrayed, lied to and conflicted. One who doesn’t want to loose friends he was made but can’t stay in the organization that he met them through because he has learned it i

Oh moderation probably means that Jordan gets to decide what gets published. it has been requested several times that Jordan returns to Rick Ross to do what he promised he was there to do.

The last two posts are a reflection of how the Gnostic Movement is putting out personal attacks against those who question the tactics and behaviours of its members and leaders.

Today there was yet another good article posted on the Movementsofgnostics page. This deals with how Mark Pritchard and a number of his Cronies are attacking ex-Students and Ex-Members but they are going to the extent of using people names and they are also bringing up private details.

I would like to bring up a matter that seems to have not yet been dealt with yet. My concern is with those people who have either chosen to leave Mark Pritchards teaching or have forced to leave (usually the later in this case) yet they still believe in the crap teachings of Victor Gomez, alias Samael Aun Woer. Sorry this is just not good enough. I have to say that these people do not yet ful

Good point Keir. I think it is quite important to liberate our minds from words like Gnosis and Gnosticism being specifically associated with the Samael Aun Weor teachings which were created by Victor Gomez. I agree with Savedatlast that the Roisecrucian development and its associated spin offs have a lot of made up stuff. However we should consider the symbolic meanings behind such ideas. A

Carl Jung had something very helpful to say about Secret societies btw. It goes something like this 'There are no such thing as secret societies. Or rather there are no societies with Secret Knowledge but the belief that they have secret knowledge' He goes on to tell us that those beliefs are in themselves very insightful for what they can tell us about the inner workings of the

It might be helpful to mention here that the Pritchards were not even creative enough to learn these manipulation techniques themselves. All they did was pick up the techques of manipulation, excuses and method for attacking others that are practiced by all other "Samael Aun Weor" and put it to their own means. Victor Gomez had a long history of exposure to manipulative schools of t
