I hope that you are right. Unfortunately it seems to me that as long as there are people out there searching or grasping for help and they have friends or associates that are the "true believers" of SIR, and those type of groups that the new recruits will keep lining up and continue to be taken advantage of. And, the cycle goes on....

The individual who contributed about differences in the prior topic of MDI and Family of Women tries to make a point. When reading his post you can hear how important MDI is to him. He invested so much time and energy in it. I feel bad for him and hope that one day he can see the light... However, to follow his thinking for a bit, let's say that the groups have truly split apart. To use

I wanted to write again because so much time has passed since I originally wrote and I have gained even more perspective and understanding of my experiences and my behaviors. My original post in Oct 2008 was at the start of very healthy therapy for the first time with a LCSW who had clinical experience with ex-cult members. I completed 3 years of it this past March. I am so happy to see how many

I would like to know if anyone has any recent experiences with Family of Women and Justin Sterling? It's been a long time since my last post on this subject and I wonder if anything has changed via organization structure , recruitment mechanisms, mind control techniques, or otherwise. Or, if it worked for Sterling before, why should he rebuild the machine? Comments are welcome!

For further information, please read the post my wife and I added over a year ago in this forum "Large Group Awarnesss training" entitled "FAMILY OF WOMEN" (Justin Sterling's Women's Division). I believe it's now on page 8 or 9 in this section. My wife's points are clear and a first persons account of the F'd up mind games she experienced while wit

I am interested to know if anyone has heard of this group based in Woodburne, New York? My wife and I are concerned as a friend of hers has joined this Ashram and has been living there now for several months. Her friend says that she works there in exchange for housing (living in a trailer). We are concerned that this might not be a healthy lifestyle. Thanks very much.

The following contribution is being written by my wonderful wife. Over a year and a half ago our lives were turned upside down when I discovered what kind of group FOW (Sterling Institute of Relationship) was all about. I learned a lot about the organization through painstaking, detailed research... fast reading! I did not have much time (I felt) as my wife was farther away from me and closer t

It is so remarkable how a group like Knight can begin small and then become a worldwide infamous plague. In that regard, I would be most grateful if this forum could please check out the website of "Rabbi B.". His is a growing Jewish based congregation being unwittingly subjected to new age influences, i.e., his recommendation of "What the Bleep?". His website is ww

Frightening how something could start off small for Knight and morph into a gigantic worldwide phenomena! In that same light, I would love to hear everyone's opinion about this "rabbi' b" website! Please take a look at www.rabbib.com. I am very interested to know what you think... His congregation in this relatively small community is now over 1000 followers! Especi

Thank you for your post and additional interesting blogs. And I agree... if the congregants who are subscribing to the new Ramthaesque teachings of new age spiritual advisor, Rabbi B.

Rabbi Baruch Ha-Levi... (aka. Jason Perelman) a new age rabbi of Congregation Shirat Hayam of Swampscott, Massachussetts is urging his "conservative" congregation to watch "What the Bleep..." for their spiritual enlightnment!

For anyone who has come to be familiar with the website of Rabbi B. (www.rabbib.com) "spiritual leader" of Congregation Shirat Hayam in Massachusetts will notice that it is a venue for not only self promotion, but offers an array of "cure all's" including endorsing his sister Rebecca Rosen. She claims that she is a medium talking to the other side... He promotes his web

Has anyone heard of Congregation Shirat Hayam in Massachusetts? Their Rabbi goes by the name Rabbi B.. Theirs is a shul that claims to be Conservative, but for the past two years truly preaches a complete New Age mantra.

For clarity, I rescind my sentence that the Graduate Theological Seminary of Oxford University (GTA) is un-accredited. Has anyone heard of this school? There are so many sites on the web discussing their legitimacy, or lack there of that I can not be sure. The bottom line is please take a look at his website, whether he did earn an accredited degree or not he is still a dangerous mind contro

Has anyone heard of the growing synagogue in Swampscott, Mass. called Shirat Hayam? It is led by a dangerous figure who goes by the name"Rabbi B."
