Hi Crystal and Bluebird,
quote:
The thing is, we have no idea what goes on behind the scenes. I do think there are some people willing to question them. Not many though.
We do know some of what goes on behind the scenes, through the information provided to us by people who have been there.
What we know is that the behind the scenes dynamic makes the Forum look like a picnic on a sunny day.
We know that anyone who dares to ask questions is/was subjected to sometimes hours of "loving" intervention to get them back on track. It has been stated about Peny that she once proudly announced that she didn't mind staying up all night if she had to in the interest of "clearing up" any
issues or problems.
People who have been subjected to these love fests have reported that they were group sessions where one person was the target and everyone else joined in with input as to exactly how and why the subject was wrong.
We have been told that all Con:Sin employees, volunteers, and friends were involved in these sessions, and that most lived in total fear of ever being on the hot seat, and experienced overwhelming relief when it wasn't themself being skewered.
None of this can come as any surprise to anyone who has spent any time in the Forum.
This is mind controlling, destructive, soul eroding, spirtual rape and cult behavior by any sane person's definition.
As Jeremiah has pointed out on another thread today, this behavior goes far beyond any that can simply be written off as "only being human". It has gone on for years, and there is no indication that anything has changed of late.
My question is why has "Lazaris" permitted this? We know that "he" has been asked this in private readings, and has responded with complete silence. Some pal!
If there is anyone who has asked and received an answer, I hope they will speak up and let us know what it was.
On that topic, we also have it on good authority that Peny listened to the private reading tapes as a way of gathering "evidence" to later use against people. We also know that "Lazaris" has used them to misrepresent and humiliate individuals during seminars.
Do you know all those cute stories Lazaris tells about this and that friend of theirs, those little personal anecdotes used to illustrate points? Several people have told us that the were present at seminars where their own private lives and information was used in this way, but that they were not accurately or fairly represented, and that "Lazaris" was deliberately taking the opportunity to embarrass, punish, manipulate, and shame them.
What a guy.
It is stories like these, and the story of Jachzaris using a Magic Time to punish and manipulate one of our dear friends here by lying about her in front of hundreds of people, and attempting to break up her family that serves as full proof to me that it is irrelevent whether or not it was Jach or some entity speaking, whoever it is is a foul and vindictive being with absolutely no conscience or committment to honesty, decency, or human rights.
This is Lazaris we're talking about here, not "just some human".
Sorry, I've gotten off on a tangent.
I think we can be very sure that Jach's second email did not come from any place of caring, compassion, or integrity on his part.
No one at Con:Sin is very practiced in correcting themselves, and not everyone in the world is willing to buy the line that anyone who would question them, their actions, or motives must be in negative-ego.
So, it would appear, that on occasion, even Jach finds himself taking the good "advice" of others besides "Lazaris", however reluctantly. It must be rough.
