NoMinorChords: It seems that you have come here exclusively to defend Lifespring, which is a company with a sordid history of bad press, complaints and lawsuits. You have posted on MIT Lifespring threads. Now you are posting some spin here. See Lifespring made very serious mistakes. But the Ross Institute has not identified Lifespring as a "cult", so that is a false argument.

Wefe, because of the person my husband became through MKP/NWTA/I-Groups, I now live with PTSD. I would seriously think about what kind of future you want for yourself. I fought for my relationship with my husband. We are still together, and he tells me he is no longer involved in MKP, but I will never trust him the way I did before. A part of me does not believe him, he became a cruel,

Question for Walter1963: What can someone who has been "processed" read and work on so that he or she will eventually find ways to ID and fend off LGAT style sales tricks--and triggers? These triggers are not confined to a particular LGAT. First, many sales techniques, even for non LGAT products, incorporate strategies that are used in LGATs. I recall being pressured to pu

It is so disgusting to see people on here, like the so-called 'free thinker' poster, defending LGATS. It cannot be overstated the deep damage and havoc and destruction that such groups wreak on people's lives. There is absolutely NO defence of such a thing. There is no need for LGATS to be in operation. None whatsoever. There is no need for people to purposefully attempt to

Wefe What your husband is experiencing is typical of what happens in a LGAT. It happened to me when I attended several NLP seminars(NLP is another kind of LGAT). I lost interest in my hobbies, my job, my view towards my close friends changed, I couldn't emotionally relate to people anymore, I had bouts of helplessness. The good news is that generally the person starts reverting

Hi everyone. I am totally new here. My husband just come back from this course (in Germany) and I am totally confused. I can not recognize him. Can somebody help me by advice or information, anything???? Our marriage is falling a part. He lost his heart, and he is behaving totally strange.

I do not wish to debate these issues at length or try to talk people out of MKP if that is truly what they believe is best for them. I just have some strong feelings I need to get off my chest after going to a MeetUp group that left me feeling... "yucky" (Sorry. I do not have the exact word available). I just want to provide my information about a "Mens Group" I joined and

To whom it may concern: Anyone interested in any form of large group awareness training (LGAT) should investigate the history of such training. LGATs generally have a history of bad press, complaints, litigation and in some situations labor violations. For example, such LGATs as Landmark Education, Executive Success Programs (aka NXIVM), EST, Sterling Institute of Relationships, Mankind

Free_Thinker: "It's simply wrong to assume that a LGAT 'downloads the belief system of a single person' into a cure for everyone."

Dear rrmoderator, I guess we've sorted our differences out. On a few final notes, I don't believe in Kauth's 'cosmic truth'. I have my own ideas and I wish/want everyone else to have their's.

Free_Thinker: You say, "I can't help but notice a prejudice against the MKP. Would you be willing/able to look at it unbiased?"

Free_Thinker: Thank you for noting that your experience is subjective. But when someone dies that isn't subjective it's objectively true. And the lawsuit settlement wasn't subjective either, it was a loss for MKP, as they paid and complied with the terms of the settlement, which you admit.
