As it is presented by M: Monte Sahaja is a holy land...in fact „the most“ holy land! lol That’s what he claims! So you can’t really compare it to some European city... or do you just „fit“ the way it suits? Like M does with his so called „teaching“? So... having suicides on this most holy land, should indeed raise a lot of red flags! Furthermore it should raise lots of red flags about wha

Bodhi68 Just because you are not ready to accept certain facts and statements it doesn’t mean they are not true! Just because you don’t like it, it doesn’t mean it is a lie! Just because your experience might have been a different one, it doesn’t mean that others did not experience what is shared Because your mind chooses to believe in something, it doesn’t mean it is true!

Hello everyone! I haven’t been posting anything for a while now, but I followed reading. I‘m very happy that I could distance myself completely from the Moo crap, physically and emotionally and also the fury and disappointment ceased. Now it just seems as a bad dream, long ago that has no more weight in it. I‘m very thankful for that and especially to everyone here that contributed and conti

Yes clearvision! It is insane! But this video is recorded some years ago, now he has „advanced“ from the message to being God, as we saw in the recent Easter video, that was taken off short after. Now he is proclaiming himself to be God. Wondering what’s next....

Sahara71: A pathological narcissist is not a victim; he is a perpetrator. Indeed! I do deal with someone like this in my close proximity. They are perpetrators! Playing out the victim role sometimes to achieve their goals. This role is what m was playing in his “apology” video. It’s just another “mask” that fits the situation.

Oh wow Annette, sad that experience with James. I don’t know the guy, thankfully God speared me of that experience. Seems like, unfortunately, the spiritual world is full of wolfs in sheep’s clothing. How is a novice supposed to choose wisely when going on this path? Most people I know, go on that path after or rather while in the process of experiencing a great deal of hurt in their li

For anyone looking for true Advaita Vedanta teachings, please find an authentic teacher (there are suggestions in this forum)! Please do not get trapped in a “sticky” version, such as of Moo’s! That can end tragically!!! Please take this advice and do not forget to take into consideration what happened to so many people following M! How many lives and families have been destroyed!

Yes zizlz, I read that post from 11:03 You were saying that it led you to the original Vedanta teachings, were you came to benefit from. This is why I asked you again to point out where you exactly see the value in m’s self invented teaching?
Forum: "Cults," Sects, and "New Religious Movements"

Zizlz Where exactly do you see the value in m’s so-called teachings? When we take into account the many first hand reports of serious mental abuse and suicides linked to him and his so-called teachings? Those are facts that cannot be ignored in any way!!! If a teacher, in fact a self appointed guru has created such a imbalance, than this is a big issue! He has simply failed! Big time!
Forum: "Cults," Sects, and "New Religious Movements"

Zizlz I did not misunderstood your posting in any way. I do also not misunderstand you stating “the main problem is being a follower in the first place” It shows a “one way” thinking. To be a “follower” requires that there is someone who wants to be followed. So, I’ll rather suggest “the main problem is that such predators exist, that take advantage of vulnerable people”.
Forum: "Cults," Sects, and "New Religious Movements"

Zizlz It seems there are many assumptions and interpretations without having any direct experience nor knowledge about the doings besides some online material. This is pretty superficial knowledge to draw upon and get to conclusions, by even disregarding first hand experiences shared. I can only suggest again that one shall read though this forum and do some research before posting.
Forum: "Cults," Sects, and "New Religious Movements"

Zizlz your statements sound very much like victim shaming! To give such a statement: „Mooji is just a link in the chain, as is any seeker that projects onto him. He is no evil perpetrator, and his followers aren't innocent victims. They've created and sustain the collective feedback loop together. They're all in it together.“ Is to me pure ignorance and again blame it on the
