From One Cult To Another...

Sicut avis ad alia transvolans et passer quolibet vadens sic maledictum frustra prolatum in quempiam superveniet.

Proverbs 26:2 (Internet check). Don't see the relevance of the quotation. But those were interesting times, when a word (verbum) was a thing (res). In the beginning was the Word. A curse was a thing to be feared. Sorry to digress.

--- Quote ---I joined in a morning camp orientation. I introduced myself and got a big welcome. I told the circle of 30 or so newcomers I represented a whole bunch of amazing folks from the Pacific Northwest...

Is this supposed to mean the Ramtha community?
--- Quote ---I remembered sitting in a restaurant in Fremont with my friend Anurag who leads transformational courses. "You can't stop war any more than you could have stopped fire. People stopped using fire when electricity came along. People stopped using vinyl records when CD's came along, The new technology renders war obsolete." To Anurag, The work done at Landmark Education is that technology. I agree with him.

So Landmark Education is supposed to end all war?
And again later:
--- Quote ---That night I slept on a really comfortable air mattress in Pallas's tent. Pallas had done a lot of work "creating possibilities" at Landmark Education, like me, so there was instant rapport. She created the possibility of being dazzling with her appearance and I created the possibility of being carefree in my work before we went to bed...

Very sad, very depressing... Well, someone else brought up the similarity between Amway and the family seminars on another thread, and Amway and Landmark share many similarities...

Am I correct that this woman Vanda is a former student at Hyde and recently received her "diploma" there? If so, this goes to show you how messed up Hyde is. What is the criteria for getting a Hyde Diploma? It certainly is not having character, morals and values.
The more I read the more I realize how f--ked up Hyde is. I cannot understand how any legitimate Educational Consultant could recommend this Cult to any parent! This site has proved to me that Hyde has been flawed since the beginning and although certain things have changed, (no more dog collars) the basis is the same! I think it is great that the word is getting out and I encourage all of you to talk to Gary Eskow who instead of just coming on this board and venting, (nothing wrong with that) is doing something more to change the abuses applied at boarding schools like Hyde.

The criteria for receiving a Hyde diploma are:
1) You must crave Hyde's approval, even, as in Vanda's case, thirty years later.
2) You must allow Hyde to exploit the event for promotional purposes.

Damn! Latin scholars on board. Ursus is a bear not a dog. Bears do eat thier vomit in the fall getting ready for hybernation.
Vanda really worked the crowd well when she got her diploma. She really is a real actor. But this should not devolve into a discussion of personalities.
The statement that:
1) you must crave Hyde's approval
2) you mast submit to being a PR whore
is true, but they do a sniff test before they will give you the vellum. I know one guy, whom I will not name, who really wanted one but was refused. Might have something to do with the fact that he was at an hyde event and was offering to share his percocets. So I am wondering. Did Vanda pass the sniff test? Or did hyde not know. I have a hard time seeing involvment in the Ramtha scene as character indicatator. People have a need to believe, even if that belief is that there is nothing to believe. And belief is powerful. I have seen it work in my life. IMHO Ramtha has a slight fishy odor not unlike the Peoples Temple. Funny, when you are middle aged you can really groove to musak. I knew the earth had shifted the day I was tapping my foot in the cereal aisle of Star Market to Jimi Hendrix "stone free to do what I please" As long as I get my oat bran. I was putting on my ski boots and the GD song "Estimated Prophet" came on over the lodge musak. That was the same day that this stuff about Ramtha appeared on this thread. Those of you that did not worship in the cult of Jerry may not be familiar with that song. here is a link: http://arts.ucsc.edu/Gdead/AGDL/estimate.html I subscribe to the Jugnian notion of interconnection. The collective was giving me clues on what to make of it.
So was If God is you why do you need a housewife guru to channel a caveman shaman? Given a choice I would rather hang with the percocet guy. At least it is clear where he is coming from.
