Have you lived in a cult?
I don't mean a "cult of personality". I mean a fully fledged cult, where they attempt to brainwash you, overpower you, kill your spirit?
Until last Thursday, I did.
In the cover image, you see the words we weren't allowed to use. This is called "work language" in the Linbu Society. By Swedish cult experts considered one of the five most dangerous cults in existence.
By the way ... thanks to Lonnee Rey???? for inspiring me to write this article! Do check out her book on Dumb*ssery - it helped facilitate my separation from the sect!
Linbu claims to be an esoteric community where the secrets of an "evolutionary psychology" is shared. Having been a therapist for a few decades, this ignited my curiosity, so I joined. As a monk, priest and healer, I have walked a long and winded spiritual path.
I went into the cult, fully aware of their reputation. They are all over the net, if you know how to search. I knew about the alleged suicide, the court cases, the allegations of treating people as slaves...
In a week or so, there will be an article about them in a Swedish newspaper called G?teborgs-Posten . If there is one thing cults can't stand, it is the piercing eyes of the Fourth Estate.
I will share a translation of the article when it appears. Anders has done a bang-up job so far, so I look forward to reading it myself :) .
If anybody tells you that you are nothing but a machine, that you have no free will, that you must surrender to the will of a man considering himself a God ... please.

Run. Scream. Hide.
Don't do what I did. Don't join.
What you most probably will find, is that they are only after your money, or having you as a slave. Or both, as is the case when it comes to Linbu.
You are more than a machine!
This is my latest song - I shared it with them, but they didn't catch the hint.
Light and Love,
H?kon

1 年Coming home to Norway has been an interesting exercise. We are said to have a great welfare system. And... if I had been an addict in recovery, I would have gotten help. If I had been an immigrant, the system would've been very generous. But I am but a man who has spent his life fixing the faults parents have made, by abusing, neglecting and hurting their children. So, I live in my car with my best friend besides Jesus. My #trollheads_nessi ??.
