We, like many others, are the victims of a widespread campaign going on today that is trying to destroy spirituality. It is headed by the anti-cult movement and has its supporters in the media and within many different areas in society.
We counter this campaign by putting the truth about the lies and misinformation that is used against us.
We expose not only the individual claims made towards us, but also expose the ways that the anti-cult movement works and put it in its historical context, as it is not new.
By exposing all this, we not just clear our own name but bring to light the issues facing all small spiritual groups who find themselves persecuted through the medium of the internet and media.
The internet now provides people with the means to broadcast lies and misinformation to the whole world, and it is our aim, both in this website and in our teaching generally, to spread truth and light amidst darkness and adversity.

Thanks for putting this together! It’s nice to have a voice of reason amidst all of this.
Ditto Jenny, ditto.
The relationship between the Divine and a human being is sacred – it should not be dictated, forbidden or ridiculed by an outsider, and it should be able to be felt, practiced and lived by whoever wishes all around the world.
So thank you everyone for this site – I hope it helps many people understand how religious freedom is so important, and make them realize that we should not take for granted what we think we seem free to do.
Wishing for a more tolerant, peaceful and loving humanity – as Belzebuub says (paraphrased)
Society is made up of individuals. Change starts within oneself.
And Gandhi – Be the change you wish to see in the world.
I hope many will also realize the objectivity found here – in this blog.
