[00:01] self-improvement and spiritual development. Did you know that by signing up for a harmless yoga and meditation class, you can end up in a sect? In unconventional practices and religions, which often hide destructive

[00:14] cults capable of destroying lives. I think you've heard of sects, but you've hardly seen them from the inside. So today I'll show you how people are drawn into cults, how spiritual leaders manipulate people, and what long-term destructive

[00:27] effects on the psyche can lead to. Today, my team and you infiltrated one spiritual teachers, interviewed an expert, and went to that very free yoga. What came of it, you'll find out right now. I wish you a pleasant

[00:47] some are being exposed, thousands of others are emerging. Evil nicknames are right now digging through your personal data, and in theory, they are capable of obtaining absolutely everything from your delivery preferences. And at the moment when You Watch this video, unknown people can

[01:01] using a duplicate card. The same applies to digital assets, such as banal passwords. Your old and long been published on shadow forums and the darknet. For example, I

[01:14] easily found mine on specific resources and became interested in this topic again after a new video from Morpheus. If you want to learn how to avoid becoming a victim of scammers or just like cool investigations, his channel is for you. In addition to material on

[01:26] immerse yourself in Kidnapping in real life, virtual passion, social information, atmospheric visuals, and an explanation of complex criminal chains in simple language. I recommend subscribing to stay informed not only about the

[01:40] feel safe in everyday life. Pause the video, After the end of my new experiment, let's continue. Let's start with the theory. Google defines a sect as a religious or other group. Sects that have separated from the

[01:54] mainstream can be Based on both traditional beliefs and those invented by themselves. If strange new ideas are immediately noticeable, use familiar traditional concepts, for example, Christianity. Who

[02:07] will tear away Faith in oneself and Trust in relatives? I have been counseling those my experience, I have never had a single case where a cult did not begin to discredit loved ones. That all your problems are because your

[02:19] parents do not love you, because your brothers and sisters despise you, they are using you. If exclusivity slips into the rhetoric, discrediting a person's past, discrediting his loved ones. Inclusiveness is imposed. Only we,

[02:32] only with us, without us, you will be lost, without us, certain death awaits you. This is the kind of rhetoric that sounds with a very high probability. A person has encountered a cult. not appear immediately. They can influence people for months or years, creating psychological

[02:44] dependence. Manipulation is sometimes difficult to recognize in the early stages. is based on reliable sources. And other points of view are misconceptions such as We will see techniques both in the stories of subscribers and from our own example. Well,

[02:57] more detailed signs must already have knowledge in this topic, to understand religious issues. Well, for example, all sects, in fact, I don’t know of such exceptions, criticize traditional religious movements directly in Russia, usually it’s the

[03:09] like to preach all religions. They lead to One God, if such an idea. Listen, this is a psychological, there are ideological. Why do people create such organizations? simply profit from gullible parishioners. However, as it seemed, sects are more often

[03:24] founded by people who sincerely believe in what they preach. And this is Faith, their main motive. Faith is the strongest motive. If a person sincerely believes in certain things, then he will preach it and will be ready to die

[03:36] for it. I would even say that most sects are created precisely like this, they are simply sects that become large, Firstly, one person is unlikely to create such a sect, he will begin

[03:48] to invite other people. If he himself is a sincere believer, then people will appear nearby who not so much believers as they have some other goals. Stobi money turns out that Even those sects that weren't created for profit

[04:01] sooner or later they begin to abuse their power over gullible people. Well, let's get straight to practice. As it turns out, people get into sects in different ways. You can run into a recruiter in a taxi. Do you want a joke? The taxi driver just handed out

[04:15] this book to everyone. It's the same book. You can also encounter sect adherents among your colleagues at work. For example, one of my subscribers, after getting a job at a large company, discovered that the company's executives were Scientologists. They

[04:27] St. Petersburg, performed strange rituals by throwing in five-thousand-ruble bills supposedly to improve work processes. In addition, they accused employees of making In addition, they accused employees of making

[04:41] who attract new people to the sect by offering to take a free test. After taking a psychological test, you will see high rates of told you need urgent help from an organization. In small towns, there

[04:54] may also be strange churches with a recruiter. A girl, a friend, became a victim of a sect. I bumped into one of them. The sectarians lured teenagers with pleasant made them psychologically dependent on the organization, convincing them that

[05:07] listened to anywhere else. As a result, the teenagers preparation process, they sent me absolutely terrible stories about how loans for the sect and ended up in debt. However, money is not the worst

[05:21] destructive impact on the psyche. The most severe consequences are solo. Thank God, I did not have a sectarian whom I would lead. I believe that mildly unpleasant. Such things happen. Well, now that we have a more

[05:35] complete picture, it's time to go to the sects and see everything from the first Sunday meeting. There were signs on the Hare Krishna church building: a vegetarian cafe

[05:47] maps could tell that a religious organization was located here. The agent said that he was there for the first time, after which he was led into an office along with the second was here only for the third time. The teacher introduced himself by his spiritual name and began a

[06:01] pseudo-historical lecture with elements of esotericism without asking the agent any questions. According to physical sources, almost every planet in our universe is inhabited by a civilization. What we see through a telescope is what we see

[06:13] externally, an outline at our level. Yes, I understand what you're talking about. Yes, because, let's say, even if we now descend back to earth and begin to communicate between extrasensory perception of the world. Sensory perception is what you see.

[06:26] You can touch, feel, and feel with your own eyes. And there is exor sensory perception, when a person can see an aura. Yes, the entities took away, let's say the horse became a horse, they lit a fire, he placed it with this fire. They read mantras. And at that moment, what happened was the

[06:39] horse became young, the code was already completely young. The horse then arranged in the organization. He led him to the lower floor where a meeting of Krishnaites was taking place. The participants of the meeting took turns giving speeches about how participation in the

[06:53] lives. A particularly vivid story was that of a young man who stated that before joining the organization he suffered from depression and social constraint. business, and he feels happy. We saw another alarming thing that

[07:06] the Expert warned us about. The Guru spoke with delight about how some students are ready to serve him. He included their voice messages, cited them as an example shed light on those who so strongly want to please their Guru. Of course, I listen to the

[07:19] Guru. I want to understand what he wants. How can I satisfy the teacher's mood so that he is pleased with mine? If my l is pleased with me, Krishna will bestow his mercy on me, and I will therefore need to listen carefully. Now there is a short excerpt, literally for a

[07:33] minute. They are some of my students, directly saying, "How can we serve you?" What can he do for you so that he can tell you the

[07:52] such statements sound quite frightening. Here is another interesting instruction about the fact that it is advisable not to use critical thinking. Article with Maya Vera. Here is But I stand with enthusiasm and sing Ho Krish. And then I see people walking and someone, you know, is

[08:05] handsome. No, myself, a sect, and my mind, you know, is enough. Someone is talking everywhere, my hear? Do you hear? Someone is talking there, something else is saying, and then my mind is all there,

[08:17] listen, alive, he says, what are you doing here? Why are you doing this? And you know, it's good to invest Faith in the image. You need to invest Faith to start the process. You need to invest Faith, you need to post yours on ru, and by

[08:32] some luck I managed it. By luck, by the grace of such a person, I told my mind, Yes, don't be silent, this is the best thing I can do. What can you do? All this time, Dmitry was agent what he thought about what was happening. Doesn't it seem to him that this looks like a

[08:46] sectarianism? The agent had a well- founded suspicion that Dmitry man from the organization who must find out if the agent has any unnecessary doubts about what is happening, but we did not fall for these provocations, pretending that

[08:58] Dmitry invited the agent to a so -called spiritual food, which is first offered to Krishna and then returned to believers. How consecrated, simply put, vegetarian food, by the way, he really liked it after the

[09:11] continue the conversation in a cafe separately from the other participants of the meeting. There, he was hiding behind a vegan cafe and continued to find out if the agent had any inquired about the Agent's religious views and the purpose of his coming to the organization.

[09:26] the organization and its motives, for example, he said that a donation is a Dmitry did not say much about himself, only mentioned that he had visited many Muslim family. After dinner, a service began, the essence of which is to sing a mantra and

[09:40] mandatory. Everyone could participate at their own discretion. After the service, people began to gradually disperse. The agent took Dmitry's contacts following weekend. We were convinced that we were fully observing signs of a cult in

[09:53] this organization and decided to continue infiltrating contact Dmitry, but he wrote that he would not be able to come on the appointed day, and then completely stopped contacting us. The agent's second visit to Moscow

[10:08] attended by the leaders of all the Krishna cells in Moscow and their devotees. At who introduced himself as Yuri. The agent inquired about the possibility of working in the temple as a service. But it turned out that this required an appointment in advance. A

[10:22] giving gifts to the deities, singing and dancing because of the loud music. Conversation with Yuri was difficult, but he answered questions. questions. Actors and without going into

[10:42] time alone, they say that it is impossible, they can do very Exalted souls Who, roughly speaking, have a taste for Glu left over from past lives? They are on a

[10:54] high level [music] minimal minimal attachment to this world and vice versa. They are generally like, well, how are these some kind of monks? The conversation was interrupted by the speaker with his report

[11:08] organization's activities over a certain period of time. The report showed how many people managed to attract recently. So, we have a total of seven sectors, 55 groups of all total of seven sectors, 55 groups of all levels, 454 participants.

[11:27] donations for all our projects. Why the hell are we preaching about caring for hell are we preaching about caring for cows? Since 2001, we have been centrally collecting donations for the construction of the community center on Nagornaya and during this

[11:39] time, little by little, but steadily, we have already collected more than one and a half steadily, we have already collected more than one and a half million Imagine that there will be a flow of time, everyone is progressing, everyone is listening. Yes, everyone is in the parish anyway, there is a

[11:56] separate project headed by Ki Mar Garu Rabu, which is collecting new contacts and distributions throughout the community. Some want to join the group, some want to distribute books right away, some are interested in

[12:11] coming to the temple and serving there, and since the beginning of this year we have collected $889 in contacts from various sources. Some came to the temple for the first time, some went to Kharin on the street, we asked where I could be placed somewhere, some

[12:26] distributed books, and began to practice regularly. 144 It would seem that this is such an insignificant amount. But in fact, if you do not help

[12:42] amount. But in fact, if you do not help new harmful people find themselves somewhere, they get lost and remain. Maybe after the report, everyone was invited to a festive dinner, but nothing remarkable happened. The agent took the contact, we

[12:54] happened. The agent took the contact, we agreed to meet on the meeting in a temple that was not listed on the maps. The building resembled a huge arrived, Yuri greeted him warmly, gave him a short tour, showed him the main

[13:10] room where services are held. During the conversation, the guard asked Yuri a question about why some people consider the organization a cult. and people leave it, the organization a cult. and people leave it, people in ignorance are considered to smoke and

[13:22] drink in general is normal If you don't smoke, don't be a fool, you have some kind of country, you understand, there's such a bunch of all sorts of things now Look closely in this VM at these attachments [music]

[13:39] remember, perhaps the conversation was interrupted by two newcomers who were brought to Yuri on a tour, they began to ask questions about the temple, talk about what brought them here, the philosophical knowledge became Lika and therefore

[13:53] Pulled the temple here was on the mantra Lila daman through Preda devotees on the Internet Manta meditations and someone there Manta meditations meditations on the Internet found out Well, in general, I

[14:09] and from there Everything went and it's noteworthy that the representative of the organization decided to warn us about other Krishnaites. I want to warn you right away not to be enchanted by either India or because she has many good

[14:25] qualities, but when we are enchanted, there is such a thing when we There's evaluate it. It's clear that we're comparing, but it just happens that some Holy person, he's basically a Holy person right now, at this very moment,

[14:40] for example, he's dancing on a movie, he's serving in a temple, he's dancing, but he can leave the temple and they can, you know, have material desires. We have a lot of our psyche, so they can take advantage of your trust. I'm not talking about

[14:52] taking advantage of your trust now, but about the fact that a person in a material body is characterized by non-spiritual, how can we say spiritual, non- spiritual desires, non-spiritual needs. After a short educational program, the newcomers said goodbye and got ready to

[15:06] saw them off and handed them gift bags. How nice, later he gave one to incense, and a book with a biography of the founder of icons. After dinner, the program included a lecture, an evening service, nothing remarkable happened.

[15:21] We finished our visits to the Krishnaites and went to that very yoga that I briefly mentioned at the beginning of the video. The sects that are born from ancient times. Practitioners are numerous, so it was from the infamous Ashram. Shambhala and the Imram Kriya sect have

[15:34] violence. But these are far from isolated examples. Our case is that of a Sahaja Yoga herself as a goddess in the truest sense of the word and has long shared treating various serious illnesses through chakra development. First, I

[15:49] looked at the Sahaja Yoga website and found a list of places where they hold classes, as well as numbers turned out to be outdated. One number actually led to a construction company. Finally, I was able to get through to one of the numbers. The operator explained

[16:01] how to access the Telegram channel on yoga. There were no posts about religion or recorded in the comments. Our agent arrived at the studio. The classes were taught by a man, and the entire group of students consisted of middle-aged women. The teacher began with a lecture

[16:14] on chakra flows, the blockage of which leads to personality imbalance. He suggested repeating simple movements, after which he asked about the participants' sensations. Several women said that they felt warmth in their hands

[16:26] interpreted this as a sign of blocked energy flows. Then he to cleanse them and again share impressions. This time, people noticed that the warmth had given way to coolness, which indicated the release of the chakras.

[16:39] improve both physical and psychological states. When the Agent knowledge, he was assured that all this was scientific, but naturally, no evidence was provided. This is closer to science. This is the physics of the subtle body. This is, so to speak, a subtle form of

[16:54] science that has not yet been studied because it is your energy for you to Side at home meditate. You don’t need anyone, and she just wanted to share this and the stories. just wanted to share this and the stories. This is based on the experience of people who

[17:08] practice. Yes, in the field, you can say yes, she said how to do it, showed she said how to do it, showed then they began to practice. Beta experience among themselves. It turns out that they don’t even offer us beliefs, but simply lie about the scientific nature of this

[17:23] knowledge. The energy center answers, the bakery, the liquid, and so on. And the process of control. That

[17:35] is, I practice in this center, I cleanse, you are establishing with congratulations, sell Vith. You have a lot of research, but now, as now, about the healing effect of yoga, he to promise a cure directly. It would already be illegal, it turns out best here,

[17:52] one thing will say another, you will say Great, something seems crazy, my personal experience, here I just did this, what happened to me, what Well, it changed in me, if something happened, it’s in the direction of roo If I have already dealt with one, I felt it, then

[18:08] great. This suits me, I’m not interested in further development in the government, our visits, we saw with our own eyes what makes sects so attractive A person esoteric ideas and stories about ancient and advanced civilizations

[18:22] sources and the evidence base probably may not see any catch at all, at least at first I understand why people come to the same thing and then alone there is not provided such a platform for socialization and the only thing that immediately causes

[18:36] concern is all these Gurus spiritual teachers who have a lot of power in the organization and it is not clear how they will manage this yoga, it made a much more terrible impression on me people gathered, listen to a conditional Guru, suggest something to themselves that

[18:52] they feel something there and no one has any questions at all There are no doubts How can you brainwash in such a way that it is impossible to even imagine it positive experience But here are some real examples of what

[19:05] participation in such organizations can lead to It so happened that immediately after we news appeared about a Yoga Master who founded his sect in Pyatigorsk Sobchak published a report about the victims of this sect they Hare

[19:19] accountable for crimes against minors due to violent 2008. As a result of the legal proceedings, the organization where we conducted the experiment, ISKCON, was forced to pay $95 million in

[19:33] compensation to the victims. But are all sects like this? What about those that don't God without spending their money, without arguing with relatives and without disturbing others? Is it life brighter and more interesting this way without receiving any harm, or will it definitely

[19:47] end badly? I'll ask a rhetorical question. Drugs make addicts happy, but is this a reason to distribute drugs and not fight drug addiction? Psychology claims there are dependent forms of behavior. Seth

[20:00] refers to a form of behavioral addiction. There are chemical addictions, such as alcoholism and drug addiction. There are behavioral forms of addiction, such as gambling addiction, sex addicts, workaholics, and shopaholics. Sectarians are the very form of

[20:13] existence as such. If a person is in a sect, then This is the maintenance of consequences that it has on the human psyche. The main question is what to do if your loved one is a convinced sectarian. Can you help him

[20:27] refuses to be in the sect and asks for this help? Of course, you can. I do this in particular. First, the degree of involvement is determined, the reason why a person looks at the family system is determined, how

[20:41] constructive or destructive it is. I teach loved ones the logic of the work, introduce them to the topic in general, this helps. Some elements I called practice. When a former sectarian turns to me, firstly, he turns to this, this is his free will, which means

[20:54] he already has it. The motivation is already there, then this is psychocorrection. I work as a psychologist. I help to eliminate the addiction there, help him cope, raise his self-esteem, understand the reasons, find meaning in this experience

[21:06] that he received, that is, help a person find inner peace. Thus, are still a relevant threat, so as not to become their victim. You should not look for a solution to organizations and succumb to promises of rapid spiritual growth. The main thing to remember is

[21:20] that Goodwill can only be manipulation. If you or a loved one has already qualified specialist in time to get rid of psychological traumatic experience. Write in the comments whether you or

[21:33] maybe your relatives, acquaintances, friends, or colleagues have encountered destructive cults. It will be very interesting to read your stories about this difficult and interesting area. I will also be grateful if you Share this video with your
