  • RITUAL AND THE BITE CULT ANALYSIS OF STEVEN HASSAN

                I would like to say, at the outset, how greatly I appreciate the work of Steven Hassan, a refugee from the Unification Church, who has written quite a number of important books and whose work as an exit counselor has been quite prodigious and helpful to many people. Although…

  • Ritual-Putting The BITE in Cult Organizations

                When I decided to reveal the essential structure of AMORC’s First Temple Degree Initiation, I had already decided that ritual was an essential ingredient in most religious mind control cults.             I also knew that AMORC, unlike most religious cults, especially cultivated the performance of rituals alone in one’s…

  • FINAL MOMENTS

    The High Priestess then tells the Neophytes that they must drop their hands and face the East. [In the sacred instructions for this ritual, it alerts the Conductor that, if any of the candidates (or all of them) don’t know how to face East, he will show them. For instance,…

  • THE LAW OF AMRA

    The flame having been lit, the Conductor now speaks to Master, asking him how shall these Neophytes prove to the Threshold’s Guardian their worthiness of re-entering the holy Temple at the mysterious time of Dawn The Master, no doubt having absolutely no interest in the Conductor’s perspective at all (maybe…

  • THE SUN KING

    In the Concurrence in Master Monograph, Degree 3, No. 3 in the Initiate Section, the famous occultist, Gerard Encausse (1865-1916) propounds his own concept of planetary evolution. He begins by saying that, Life is concentrated in a sun at the center of the system, and the planets receive more of…

  • FAITH AND KNOWING

    It is one thing to say you are a person of faith and believe that your faith will unlock the door to an absolute knowledge of God and His purposes. It is another to say that everything you believe is founded on verifiable logic and experience and say that the…

  • INITIATION: PORTAL TO MADNESS

    In my last blog, we discussed the set-up for the Initiation I carried out in my home sanctum for Temple Degree 3. After meticulously creating conditions for a very powerful hypnotic platform, as described in both the Prisoner of San Jose and AMORC UNMASKED, the candidate is then told: To…

  • RITUAL AND THE SEARCH WITHIN

    There is probably nothing more external than a ritual. Although it may embody some kind of symbolic reality, although it may suggest awakening, the ritual itself is an ever-repeated set of movements, chanting, invocations, perhaps singing in an atmosphere dressed with special costumes, candles, incense, often veiled in deep mystery…

  • RITUAL – SET-UP FOR MIND CONTROL

               Covert mind control is not just a slap-dash process. A person doesn’t just read a book or say a prayer or chant something and suddenly slip into an enhanced state of suggestibility that eventually completely changes his personality and make him a compliant slave of his cult superiors. …

  • STATIONS OF THE TEMPLE

    Now, these happy souls are told to rise by the Conductor who says he will now guide them through the stations of the Temple. On the North is the dismal darkness where superstition and ignorance prevails. Terror reigns in the dismal North and there is a strange sense of evil…
