The most effective recruiters for a guru or hidden agenda group do not know that they and their
sincerity are being pimped by their group.
Pimped to to recruit for their guru or group via their existing relationship networks.
The best recruiters are people you already trust. And the best recruiters
are not pushy - enthusiastic.
They are sincerely enthusiastic.
And this sincerity is attractive and appealing.
But sincerity does not in itself prove anything. It is
like sweet tasting substances.
We are wired to seek out the taste of sweetness.
But...sweetness can mask the taste of poison.
Those you trust who are sincerely, may without their knowledge have had
their sincerity co-opted by indoctrination experts (calling themselves
gurus, teachers, leaders, masters) to serve an agenda of deceit.
These trusted friends, coworkers, a teacher at your children's school, lovers, relatives, even in some
cases, yoga teachers or therapists -- they will be unaware that
their newfound feeling of salvation and transformation has been produced
a set of stimuli deployed by a dishonest group or guru, who are adept at manipulating the neurochemistry of trustful persons.
Persons who feel liberated from their addictions will be unaware that
they have not been freed from their addictions; they have merely
transferred their addiction to a guru or agenda driven group
that, unlike healthy families and participatory democracy, has features
which replicate features of a dysfunctional family in which addiction are fostered and fester. It does not matter if this all can be justified
by ancient tradition or by a human leader claiming to be god or at some
exalted astral-theosophical level of attainment.
Addicts are scared of losing access to their drug dealer. Disciples stab each other in the back and live in fear of losing access to and favor of the guru.
Those persons you trust do not feel exploited, even though
they are being exploited without being aware of it.
You are therefore unlikely to research this leader and group your
sincere, radient friend is involved with.
Even if you do learn alarming information about this group, you
may feel afraid to compromise a valued relationship by taking this
seriously. You may persuade yourself that this is obsolete
information, that it is about a different sect from the one your
friend is in.
You become an enabler for your friend by making these excuses to yourself.
