It appears that those who worship Mark Pritchard have gone through their greatest cameleon act yet. I found a poster yesterday that let me to this website. At first the poster looked like theirs yet it was not for the Gnostic Movement. I was suspicious when it was offering a free 8 week course and it was also for astral travel not astral projection. No one else uses the arrogant term of astra

Hi Think, Baron was a fallower of Ernesto Gomez (aka Samael Aun Weor). This thread prodominantly for dealing with Mark Pritchards mess.

Do Anyone know if the Gnostic movement is still in operation? Are they still running centres? It appears that all of their sites are gone except for the Belzebuub one, which has always been tightly controlled.

It is far to say this is a clear case of a persecution complex as no one is actually persecuting the Gnostic Movement. For a clear understanding of what I mean please have a look at my last post. We have people speaking out against the organization and its leadership who either eventually left the group after having a conflict and usually several problems with the organization or people who w

Although there is no technical definition of a persecution complex since it is not a technical term, this definition helps to explain what people mean when they use the term. " A persecution complex is a term given to an array of psychologically complex behaviours, that specifically deals with the perception of being persecuted, for various possible reasons, imagined or real.

None of the people who were attacked we doing anything wrong, as we have a right to free speak and freedom of expression.

Forum: "Cults," Sects, and "New Religious Movements"

Is it me or has the Gnostic Voice Blog disappeared? I suspect that the Gnostic Movement didn't want to be involved in an illegal action and have to deny that they were involved in it. Oh well it is too bad it almost seemed like they might have been forced to engage in an open and honest dialogue there. Once again they have started something that they have had to run from.
Forum: "Cults," Sects, and "New Religious Movements"

I find it interesting that The Gnostic Movement is denying that they are officially involved in the Gnostic Voice Blog. If that is the case we have two important questions to ask. 1. Why have they not officially spoken against the illegal actions of those posting on the blog? 2. Why it is that the Gnostic Movement has clearly shared private and confidential information with agents who are n

I wish to respond to certain points of argument that were made by the Gnostic Movement in the Cult is the new heresy piece. However before I do that I would like to apologize if I ever called the Gnostic Movement a cult. Such a statement is not accurate as can be clearly seen by the origin of the usage of the word in the English language. What would have been a much more accurate description wou

This post is particularly relevant the discussion here. to t The Cult Defense – “They persecute us like they persecute Jesus” I would like to draw attention to a key criterion used to assess whether an organisation is indeed a cult or not, namely ‘the persecution complex’ (and accompanying paranoia). Here are a few statements made by different cult experts and associations to explain

Here is an interesting claim: "There are 4,308 people currently taking our online course. To date, over 90,000 people have already taken the courses." How could they count anyone as taking online courses right now? Didn't they decide to only run the courses in the centres this round? Also I would be very curious to know where the claim of over 90,000 people having taken the

Hi Pea, Thanks for your support and I very much agree with you. I've been reading up on Adhd and I just recently say the estimation of how frequently it occurs. I appreciate you mentioning it. There is a great amount of misinformation about this condition and the fact that Edith would look to explode such a fact is really quite telling.

I thought I would post something just for a little fun. I remember having a conversation with Jordan Resnick about how similar this was to how a negative entity would attempt to corrupt you, based on his vast experience in the Astral. But notice what is said here at 1:33. Does that not sound a lot like Mark saying that all other teachings are either created or encouraged by Negat

Besides the overall concern of an organization being so petty and judgment of its students its interesting to note a major error by Edith Pritchard in this email. ADD or ADHD is not a personality disorder. I would have hoped that someone who had felt the need to preach to others for over two decades about psychology would know something about basic psychology. And what about my behaviour at t

Here is the most recent post from the Gnostic Movements blog, Gnostic Voice. You have to wonder why an organization that has its own website needs a blog to post where its agents can post anonymously. For the record it should be stated that people post here about their experience anonymously because they know how the Gnostic Movement treats those who speak out, based on experience. Of m

i meant Vile in the last post not Vial.

This is a serious accusation so I think that we need to properly deal with this.

Overall I have to say that these accusations of persecution are nonsense. We are not attacking The Gnostic movements believe but are are criticizing its lack of accountability both financial and in management. Further we are raising concerns with how manipulation and fear is used to control the members and students. I have a problem with how the Gnostic movement is not up front with its b

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 religious grou
