This is a story I heard from someone. ... Let's just say that's how it is.

That person said that they once attended a seminar by a spiritual group that claimed to be very traditional. It cost a considerable amount, several hundred thousand yen for a few days, but the content was terrible. They looked down on ordinary jobs and claimed that their spiritual work was the best, and they made rude remarks about others, which was shocking. They said they didn't gain much from it.

At the venue, they told people who were simply attending the seminar, "We are the masters, and you are the disciples," which made the participants feel confused. It's usually the disciple who chooses the master, but at that venue, the instructors told the seminar participants, "You are now disciples of our instructors," which felt very strange. The instructors' rude behavior was also very disappointing. They said it was like a "black company" training program.

That person emailed one of the instructors, who was also promoting the seminar, about this issue. The instructor replied, "I don't know. Please contact the headquarters." This response confused them, and they couldn't think clearly at first. After a while, they calmed down and thought about it, and they understood that the instructor was trying to avoid taking responsibility for the seminar they had recommended. They realized that this behavior was different from common sense. In general society, if you recommend something to someone, there is usually a certain level of responsibility involved. However, it seemed that this instructor did not have such common sense. They were very puzzled by this. At first, they were told, "I am not involved in that," which they found strange. They had recommended the seminar, but the instructor said they didn't know anything about it. It's unclear whether they received a commission for recommending the seminar, but regardless of whether they did or not, ignoring the content of the seminar they recommended is very different from common sense, and they had doubts about the attitude of the instructors at that group.

It's not possible to recommend something and then avoid responsibility for its content, or to simply say, "Please contact them," in general society. That person thought that perhaps the instructor had forgotten such common sense after being in that narrow society for so many years. There is a certain level of responsibility involved in recommending something to others. It can sometimes lead to big problems for the other person. That's what they said. This also seems to have a "black company" feel to it.

Therefore, before even delving into the content of the seminar, he had absolutely no rapport with the instructor who had recommended the seminar.

He pursued this point as well, and furthermore, pointed out various inconsistencies. However, the instructor did not provide proper answers and instead repeated irrelevant things, ultimately saying, "I thought you had more potential. I was mistaken. You are running away. If you don't take the next seminar (500,000 yen for 2 days), you won't understand anything."

If we're talking about "running away," it's the instructor who "runs away" by recommending the seminar but then shirking responsibility for the content of the seminar and shifting the responsibility to the organization. However, for some reason, while maintaining such a safe position, the instructor repeatedly berated him, the victim, with the word "don't run away." This is an absurd attitude. It's illogical in general society for someone to recommend something and then claim no responsibility.

Moreover, he felt that the content of this seminar was also not very good and that he didn't gain much from it. Therefore, he thought it was a very poor value, and even a malicious seminar, and then he was pressured to take an even more expensive seminar while being told to "don't run away." How aggressive is this sales pressure?

It seems that he was also pressured about various things regarding the previous seminar, which cost tens of thousands of yen, and because he carelessly took it, he became a promising customer for the next, even more expensive seminar, and was further pressured, eventually becoming a victim. He didn't feel any spiritual depth in the instructor's sales skills, audacity, and condescending attitude. He seemed to be just a hysterical old lady.

In the end, the conversation strayed from the content of the seminar, and for example, when talking about men and women, she would make arbitrary assumptions and scold him, and even when he pointed out her misunderstandings, she would not correct them or apologize, and simply ignore them. In the end, she repeatedly scolded him with the words "you are always running away," showed no sign of apologizing, and finally, she spat out the words "I'm not going to deal with you anymore" and disappeared.

It is common for beginners in spirituality to use ego to affirm themselves, but he felt that she was exactly that kind of person. She twisted and turned arguments to protect her ego and self-affirmation, repeatedly using sophistry to deny the other person and protect herself, and if the other person didn't agree, she would end by spitting out a harsh word and running away.

The instructor said, "Don't run away. Please take the next seminar (2 days, 500,000 yen). If you don't, you won't grow at all, and you'll end up without knowing the truth. You'll be a failure." What he said ultimately led to expensive seminars, which reveals the shallowness of his words. In the previous seminar, he said similar things, but there wasn't much to gain.

When that person replied that they wouldn't take any more seminars and had doubts, the instructor threatened them by saying, "If this world continues as it is, there will be war, poverty, and most people will die." Then, he said that if they took the 2-day, 500,000 yen seminar, the Earth would be saved. The person thought that if the Earth could be saved by something like that, it wouldn't be so difficult. Even if he were to offer a solution, it was too simplistic. The seminars don't end there; you have to continue taking seminars with significantly higher amounts. This is a cult. It's terrifying.

Incidentally, ideologically, this organization considers everyone involved in the capitalist society to be slaves, and the people who specialize in working for the organization are considered to be the upper class. They use the metaphor of "jobs in the lower realm" to refer to regular jobs. I personally think that such a sense of superiority is hopeless, but that person seems to be quite serious.

Hearing this story, I was disappointed that such a cult spiritual organization still exists. It might cause trouble like the next Aum Shinrikyo someday.

The instructor said to that person, "Even if you deny it, some people will come back. It's probably because they realize the power that was given to them through a ritual."

This is a very important statement that must be analyzed calmly and carefully. One's true nature is revealed in such casual remarks. The essence of this statement is that "people who seek power will be drawn to the organization." The fact that someone who initially left returns because of "power" gives us a glimpse into the kind of people who are involved.

The reason for returning is that they seek power, which sounds like a black magician selling their soul to the devil in exchange for power. As the saying goes, "those who seek power will be drowned in it." So, there are people who return seeking power, and they sell their souls to the devil in the process. Even if they have problems with the organization, they may tolerate those problems because they want power. By confirming the reason for returning, one of the motivations that keeps those people going has become clear. This serves as a cautionary tale, "do not be drowned in power." It's a lesson.

In yoga, it is often said that a true yogi (a person who practices yoga) aims for higher realms by relinquishing power. Therefore, in yoga, one does not seek or display abilities, even if they possess them. Such a humble attitude is respected among yogis. According to scriptures, yogis, upon reaching a certain stage, are tempted by gods with abilities and other temptations. It is said that those who reject these temptations and renounce abilities and status ultimately attain samadhi (a state of meditative absorption) or moksha (liberation).

Cult groups that seek power may have some understanding of practice, but they seem to get stuck when they are captivated by power. Without proper scriptures or a guru, it is easy to be tempted by power and stray from the path. It is fortunate to encounter a guru or scriptures that teach the correct path, but what is most important is for the individual to have the discernment to recognize what is correct.

In that cult group, abilities and techniques seem to directly indicate a person's rank. This is likely because the underlying ideology is that power is justice (and sometimes, a violent one).

What may be difficult to understand is that prayer is more important than power. However, when I say this, members of cult groups who are boosting their self-esteem based on their abilities may dismiss it. Here, "prayer" essentially means connecting with higher dimensions. Connecting with higher dimensions allows one to gain far greater power than using lower-dimensional powers through techniques. This is automatic and requires no effort. It is ironic that relinquishing power leads to greater power. Ultimately, relinquishment guides growth. Seeking power only leads to discussions within the physical dimension or a similar level. Even if one gains power, they rarely use it because they have already relinquished it. It's like having a sword or a gun but not using it.

While various organizations may have some divine will, humans often turn spirituality into a business and create expensive seminars. This pattern of skillful people exploiting spirituality for profit seems to have remained unchanged since the New Age era. That organization claims to specifically reject New Age, but it is common for similar groups to criticize each other because their structures are the same.

For over 30 years, it has been a common story that spiritual groups or individuals have bad relationships with each other. Even in communities related to the universe, there are factions, and they often speak ill of each other. However, I think they are similar in many ways. If they are engaging in such gossip (although they may not explicitly call it gossip, but rather try to cover it up with clever excuses), their activities will not expand.

I personally knew a certain universe-related group for over 30 years. I checked on them out of curiosity, thinking I hadn't heard from them in a while, and found out that the group's representative had passed away a few years ago, and the group's activities had stopped. I had been receiving and reading their magazine since high school, but what started as a pursuit of spiritual evolution eventually turned into instigating fear of a major disaster. They initially said it would happen around the year 2000, but nothing happened, so it was postponed. Then, they said it would happen in 2012, but that also passed, and they continued to instigate the idea that it was coming soon until recently. In the end, the representative passed away, and the group's activities ended.

This is not limited to that group. There are many cults that instigate major disasters to drive people's actions, but ultimately, nothing happens, and they are self-satisfying. The members themselves perform rituals and claim to have "done what was necessary," but they seem to be indulging in self-satisfaction. In reality, it is questionable, but they seem to be very satisfied with having "contacted" the Japanese gods, and they often talk about performing rituals. When I try to say something, they often dismiss me by saying, "You wouldn't understand." I think most of these things are likely due to imagination. True rituals are not something that happens often, and gods who explicitly give instructions through "words" are not that high of a god. Often, they are being made to perform rituals to increase the power of a mediocre spirit entity. I think there are many people who are swayed and fall into a state of being manipulated by entities claiming to be Japanese gods.

Now, according to the person I spoke with, whether it is true or not, the group (mentioned earlier) has claimed to have "saved the world" many times in the past. That person also heard such stories. This is similar to the group I have known for over 30 years. These kinds of stories are usually dubious, and are often just things like "I feel like it," or "I think my prayers were answered," or something to that extent. Moreover, the group (mentioned earlier) tends to overestimate its achievements, and they say that you can achieve significant growth by attending their seminars for a few days. However, these numerical values are vague, and that person said that it seems like people who are not very intelligent are attracted to the appearance of it.

Major disasters are not impossible. However, you should not use them to incite fear. If you incite fear, it is simply a cult. Also, the situation where people from space might help is not impossible, but claiming that as the achievement of a specific group is a gross misunderstanding.

The laws of the universe. All planets have free will, and people from other stars in the universe basically cannot interfere. Only when the people of that planet clearly express their will can other civilizations in the universe interact with that planet. While there are exceptional cases where intervention is possible, such as the destruction of a civilization, this law is generally followed. I have some knowledge of cases where Earth was saved, and in those cases, it was because the people of Earth clearly expressed their intentions, and in response, people from space helped. Therefore, the role of the people of Earth is to express their intentions, while the actual action is taken by people from space. Therefore, it is arrogant for a specific group to think that "we saved the Earth" (as if they were humans). The people of Earth simply expressed their (clear) intentions. This is because there is a law of the universe that people from space cannot act without the expression of will from the Earth side. Whether that group's pattern is the same or not, I don't know the details of that time, and there is a possibility that their wishes really reached people from space, but there are also many possibilities that it was simply a misunderstanding, just imagination. There are many groups that are deluded into thinking they saved the Earth. Even so, the basic pattern for people from space to help is as described above. Therefore, from the perspective of people from space, they may contact people on Earth who are relatively "randomly" there, or who are noticeable, regardless of who they are or where they are from. However, for the uncultured people of Earth to think, "I am chosen, we are the saviors of Earth," is a misunderstanding. Moreover, the possibility that such a thing does not exist at all and is a misunderstanding is higher. Even if it does exist, it is simply because they happened to be there, or happened to catch their eye, and they just happened to be chosen for that role. To what extent they misinterpret this and think "we saved the Earth" is similar to some strange religion. Well, I don't know about that specific group, but generally, this is the case. If the people involved truly believe that they saved the Earth, I would be skeptical. However, if they think that in a place where it doesn't bother anyone, then they can think whatever they want. Basically, the power of humans on Earth is very small, and it is thanks to the help of people from space. This is because the help from space is possible through the prayers of the people of Earth. At that time, the role of the people of Earth is like a grain of sand. However, if there are no prayers, people from space cannot help, so it is somewhat important, but the actual work is done by people from space.

There are pure extraterrestrials operating independently of any spiritual groups or cults. Therefore, cults are ultimately just cults. Sometimes, even if the extraterrestrials are dealing with ignorant Earthlings, they may try their best to make contact. However, even if such things happen, cults should not misunderstand them. In reality, they misunderstand, and that's why they are cults. It's best to avoid such cults.

Even if it's a cult, its essence may be genuine. In such cases, instead of looking at the appearance of the cult organization, you should look at its origin or fundamental principles. If you can understand it, it's better to know only the essence and avoid dealing with people. However, it's foolish to get involved in the internal affairs of the organization.

Especially, for some reason, these types of cult organizations always have hysterical old women. Even if you try to talk to them directly, you can't have a calm conversation, and they try to persuade you with emotions and hysteria, making it impossible to communicate. Moreover, it's common for them to make arbitrary judgments without understanding and laugh and look down on others. They often accuse you of "running away" because they can't communicate, and they may try to persuade you with hysteria or the atmosphere of the moment, and then casually say, "People are quiet when you talk to them directly." They also strongly recommend that you take expensive seminars. However, they do not take responsibility for the effects of the seminars. If there are effects, they claim it's the achievement of the cult organization, and if there are no effects, they justify it by saying, "It's just that you haven't realized it." They have a perfect strategy that always wins, and they stand at the top of the hierarchy of old women, appearing impressive from the outside. Participants who are not very intelligent or lack judgment may think, "Maybe," and continue to take expensive seminars until their wallets are empty. Then, they come to their senses, despair, and think, "What was I doing?" Cult organizations that promote seminars by inciting the destruction of the world are like that. Ultimately, you shouldn't deal with fake teachers who provoke you by saying, "You ran away."

Although there may be cases where there are actual effects even if you don't feel them, that is rare. Basically, if you don't feel the effects, there are no effects. Even if they insist that there are effects, if you are convinced by that, it's just a placebo effect. Having effects means that there is a certain amount of energy. Not having effects means that the energy being given is weak. If the aura of the subject is stronger, they may not feel anything even if a weak aura is given from the outside. Therefore, there are two possibilities.

・If the aura being given is weak. (If the aura given is weak, but the subject perceives it, it means the subject has high sensitivity.)
・If the subject's aura is stronger than the aura being given. This means the aura being given is weaker than the subject's aura.
・If the subject is dull and cannot perceive it (this can also be due to the subject's mental state).

The interpretation that the subject is dull and cannot perceive it can sometimes be an excuse for the giver to feel self-satisfied. It is obvious that a weak aura will not be effective. However, there are some spiritual schools that insist that "even if it is not felt, it is effective." They then make the incorrect judgment that "the reason why it cannot be felt is because the subject has not grown spiritually." In reality, there are also many cases where the subject's aura is stronger and the effect is not produced, but these schools seem to pay no attention to that. Another characteristic of such spiritual schools is that they are not able to objectively observe the subject's condition.

If I were to say it, I think that in many cases, the reason why something cannot be felt is because the subject's aura is strong. Because the subject's aura is strong, even if an aura is given (in the name of healing or initiation), the given aura is (relatively) weak, so nothing is felt. However, arrogant healers and assertive spiritual theorists arbitrarily judge that "it is just that (the subject) is not feeling it, but it is effective." In reality, it is necessary to confirm the strength of the aura being given, the strength of the subject's aura, and the subject's sensitivity, in order to determine "what it actually means when the effect is felt." However, arrogant spiritual schools tend to dismiss it by saying, "Even if the effect is not felt, the effect is absolute. It is because the person's spiritual growth is not enough." It is not such a simple story.

Also, there is a story about the attributes and compatibility of auras. There are some combinations of auras that are difficult to feel, and some that are easy to feel. Whether the aura is an upward or downward type, or whether it is a fire, water, earth, or wind attribute, the strength of each attribute is related to the degree of chakra activation. In addition to the combination of the strength of the attributes, the state of the aura, whether it is relatively "tense" (conflict) or "calm" (harmony), also changes. It seems that in cases with relatively strong "tense" vibrations, the subject is more likely to feel it, so there are cases where the healer's vibrations are bad, and the subject feels it. It is not something that can be simply judged as superior or inferior in spirituality based on whether or not it can be felt. It depends on the person's condition on that day, and it is also affected by other auras that the person has been exposed to. Even just smelling cigarette smoke can partially damage the aura, so it is not something that can be easily judged about a person based solely on the state of their aura.

When you don't feel much effect, if you honestly say so, some healers may start to get irritated, or even lash out, saying things like, "You haven't grown," or even scolding you. Some healers have a strong ego, and they believe that what they are doing is definitely effective. To deny that is to deny their (inflated) ego, and they may react strongly, becoming hysterical, raising their voice, or lashing out.

If you think about it honestly, when a subject doesn't feel an effect, it's often because the subject's aura is (relatively) stronger than the healer's, and the healer hasn't been able to provide an aura that is (relatively) strong enough to have an impact. However, it's unclear how this can be interpreted as "even if you don't feel anything, it's effective. The reason you don't feel anything is because your spiritual growth is immature (tsk)." It's probably because healers have a strong ego, and they want to boost their self-esteem and protect their ego. They can't accept reality, so they distort their perception and interpret it in a way that protects their ego. If you think about it honestly, you should come to the humble conclusion that "Ah, the subject's aura is relatively stronger than mine, and I couldn't provide enough energy to have an impact. I'm still immature. I need to work harder." However, some people in certain cult-like groups don't think that way. They arrogantly interpret it as "Our treatments are definitely effective. Because they are definitely effective, it doesn't matter if you don't feel anything. It's the subject's problem." Furthermore, this can escalate into a win-lose situation between the subject and the healer, creating a hierarchical "mounting" effect. They conveniently interpret it as "The reason you don't feel anything is because your spiritual level is immature, so I, as a healer, am superior." And that is reflected in their words and actions. People in these cult-like groups often use the word "beginner" when talking to subjects. However, as they often say, "Other people are your mirror," and spiritual beginners tend to perceive everyone around them as inferior. Even though they are only seeing their own reflection in others, they look down on them as being inferior. This is a common pitfall for spiritual beginners, so healers and other cult members often use the word "beginner" when talking to subjects. However, in reality, there are many cases where the subject's aura is stronger, or the subject is more spiritually advanced. Even so, it seems that this is not well understood by members of the cult. That may be the reason why it is a cult. It not only creates a "mounting" effect, but also creates a hierarchy within the cult. It is a foolish hierarchy where beginners control other beginners. Cult members often say, "Evil organizations create hierarchies through fear, while good organizations create hierarchies through command systems." However, at the same time, they also have an ideology that "being involved in a cult is good, but leaving a cult is evil." So, they claim to be good, and they claim that they are "not forcing anyone, not using fear," but they instill a sense of fear and evil about leaving the cult, indirectly surrounding people and preventing them from leaving. The fact that they are putting a spiritual curse on people suggests that they are actually evil, even if they claim to be good.

In the first place, spiritual growth should be about one's own growth, but there's no point in associating with people who treat it as a matter of winning or losing. It's right to escape from people you don't need to associate with. When someone tries to provoke you, it means they still have ego, and it's an expression of wanting to increase their influence. It's foolish to be incorporated into such an ego-driven hierarchy. They will say "it's not ego" with their mouths, but it's important to see if their words and reality match. It takes considerable life experience to determine whether someone is truly right, even if their words are correct.

Sometimes, escaping from such a hierarchy and walking on one's own feet can be a lesson. That is also a trial of walking one's own life with one's own feet. People who depend on organizations may be confronted with such a lesson, or they may end up living a life of slavery without even realizing that they are dependent. Members of cult organizations feel a sense of purpose in manipulating others, but they also deceive themselves and others about it. They try to cover it up by saying things like "it's for world peace," but deep down, they are driven by the desire to enjoy the pleasure of manipulating others, and they are often in a fairly immature state.

By the way, a certain organization's representative publicly stated, "People in the world will be divided into those who survive and those who disappear. That person, ○○, is in the disappearing group." In the end, nothing happened, such as the predicted disasters, and about 30 years have passed. During that time, they continued to stir up fear of disasters, and finally, they passed away a few years ago. They passed away before the predicted disasters occurred. The fate of a cult leader is ultimately like that. They stir up fear, but in reality, nothing happens, or they suddenly change their position and say, "I saved you." Because they change their claims arbitrarily, I don't think it's meaningful to associate with cult organizations.

About 30 years ago, a certain organization, even though nothing happened after being stirred up for decades, calmly said, "That was a lie to make everyone grow." Then, they changed their attitude, and then, I saw them start stirring up the destruction of the world again. I was speechless. Cults are characterized by arbitrarily interpreting words and not taking responsibility for them. Therefore, you shouldn't seriously deal with cults. It's a waste of time. Cults have the characteristic of using effective words to move others. Manipulating others is the purpose of cults, and they deceive themselves so that they don't realize it. They cover up their ego by using other words and logic, claiming that it's for world peace or something. In this way, the ego of cult members is protected. It's a perfect game where the ego is absolutely protected.

In reality, the idea of the world's destruction is not entirely absent. However, such stories always exist. They have been around not just for 30 years, but even longer. But if a better timeline exists, a better parallel world, then the current world might already be hell for them. Or, from the perspective of a worse timeline's parallel world, the current world might be heaven. Therefore, such destructive and inciting rhetoric is not essential. We should continue to practice training that allows us to maintain a calm mind at any time. If spiritual training is essential, then inciting a major disaster is not essential.

Currently, China and other evil forces are indeed encroaching on Japan. If Japan is dominated by China, it may become a place where freedom of speech is suppressed, like in M○○○ or C○○○, and torture may become commonplace. In such a situation, a spiteful person from a certain country might say, "Oh, you said you have a calm mind? Let's see how much of that is true," and target spiritual people, indulging in base pleasures and torture. This is what happened in Tibet. There is a risk that such a situation could be replicated in Japan.

However, the solution is not to engage in cult activities that incite the world's destruction and chaos. Instead, it is a perfectly normal response: to strengthen the military and protect the country. This may include magical countermeasures, but cults imitating such techniques are often ineffective and are simply used as a source of power for strange and incomplete spiritual entities. When I hear from people who participate in such rituals in cult organizations, they often say things like, "I feel like I'm doing it, but I just want to believe that I'm doing it, it's more of a wish," so it doesn't seem like any real magic is being performed. Things like creating barriers are not something that can be done easily, and it certainly won't happen after attending a few days of expensive seminars at a cult organization. At least, there might be some possibility for people who are born with such abilities. However, it is best to entrust such tasks to people who were born with that purpose or to a lineage that has traditionally performed such duties. It is dangerous to join a cult organization without understanding and feeling like you have accomplished something. Such vague feelings and sensations are often just imagination and wishful thinking.

Originally, if someone has the ability to perform rituals, the specific incantations or gestures are inherently unnecessary; the intention itself is sufficient. It is accomplished in that instant. It is performed not only by the individual but also with the accompanying spirit group, and while that person serves as a medium between the spiritual and physical realms, the spirit group is actually the one performing the ritual. It is regrettable that members of cult groups misunderstand this and believe they are performing the rituals themselves. Even so, they move as if they are doing something, which allows the spirit group to influence the physical world, so they are somewhat useful. However, the reality is that they are constantly searching for better mediums. Therefore, even if someone initially appears to have the ability, it may disappear, and the main cause of this is often arrogance. When a person becomes conceited and misunderstands things, they lose their ability, which is natural because it was not originally their own ability, but rather they were acting as a medium. There is also a certain amount of the individual's own power, which is necessary and cannot be lost. However, those who can use their own abilities do not make such misunderstandings; they are aware of it.

The person leading the group is often misunderstood as a "god spirit," but they can sometimes be terrifying beings like demons or semi-divine entities. Because a spirit can take any form, the appearance can be deceptive, but everything is revealed by looking at the vibrations. There are often entities that resemble demons who talk about God. In reality, there is not much difference between God and demons in the lower realms, but angels act for the sake of humans, while demons work for their own benefit. Furthermore, there are cases where demons behave like angels, disguising themselves as angelic or divine rituals in order to increase their own energy and have humans perform those rituals. To discern such situations, one needs a certain amount of experience, or perhaps someone born as a native might be able to see through it. Becoming a leader is relatively a human affair and is not necessarily a supremely noble being.

As has been passed down from ancient times, the saying that a being that has grown only halfway becomes a leader, and that when it grows further, it no longer becomes a leader, is a correct saying.

A simple way to tell is to avoid getting involved if you feel something is off. "Feeling something is off" may be difficult to understand, but basically, if you feel "discomfort," you should avoid getting involved. Although there may be times when you temporarily get involved to learn about the teachings behind it, I don't think it is necessary to actively get involved.

In any case, involvement with spiritual groups and expensive seminars are completely unrelated, and the fact that money is taken is due to human convenience; therefore, it is provided free of charge to those who truly need it. In the first place, seminars are unnecessary; spiritually, it is passed down. It descends. Literally, even without anything, you can connect and knowledge and power will descend, so expensive seminars are not necessary. Since humans need money to live, it is not a problem if a small amount of money is taken, but 500,000 yen for two days seems like a scam. Even so, people attend because of the skillful marketing that promotes it as if there is something amazing, and the skillful method of instilling a sense of mission by inciting the fear of the world's destruction attracts honest and naive people. In a sense, it is like the culmination of New Age's law of attraction and the art of manipulating others. The method of using good intentions to get people to attend expensive seminars is, in a way, something that I am impressed by (sarcastically).

The aliens or spiritual entities pretending to be aliens, who are somewhat involved behind the scenes, are actually indifferent to this, and do not understand human clever tricks and desires. They live in a place without desires. This is because higher beings are not interested in human's low-level cunning and desires, so they do not seem to understand it very well. From the perspective of humans, we worry whether aliens or higher beings are concerned about such a situation, but when I asked the higher beings about it, I received such an answer. Therefore, cult groups are turning the sincere intentions of aliens and higher beings into a money-making scheme. The pure intentions and actions of higher beings are being exploited by ignorant and greedy people, which prevents them from spreading and leads to misunderstandings. There is no money in the higher world or universe, and higher beings do not intend to have such expensive seminars, and they seem to hope that anyone who is interested can receive it widely for free. However, cult groups are enclosing and commercializing these activities, which prevents them from spreading widely and distorts the content. Cult groups naturally want to spread their message, and they naturally have some pure intentions, but in addition to that, half of it is for making money, and as a result, the pure intentions of higher beings are misunderstood. Higher beings are indifferent to such nuances, and because higher beings do not understand the details of the earth, the story becomes distorted.

It would be ideal if people could attend seminars and only receive the core teachings, filtering out anything else. However, often, cult organizations teach their own interpretations, making it difficult to reach the original teachings. It becomes difficult to distinguish what the original teachings were.

When the original teachings are distorted and human interpretations become established as dogma, the organization no longer reflects the intentions of the higher power. If the activities of the supporting earthly organization are unsuccessful, and the organization becomes a cult, it eventually takes time, but people begin to realize that something is strange about the higher power. In addition, it is said that the higher power sometimes separates a portion of its essence to reincarnate as "eyes" and "ears" to observe what is actually happening. These individuals, who serve as "eyes" and "ears," are visited by a portion of the higher power's essence to observe the cult organization. They then objectively or subjectively make judgments and provide feedback to the parent spirit group, which can be considered the "soul" of the higher power, through telepathy. This allows the higher power to observe the details of the situation that might not be apparent from their perspective.

As a result, if a cult organization is deemed to be beyond redemption, the higher power withdraws its support and seeks a new medium. In this way, the cult organization loses its support and only the superficial aspects remain. Then, a new organization receives support from the higher power and becomes revitalized. This cycle of cult formation and revitalization has been repeated throughout history. Recently, many organizations have become cults, pursuing the interests of the organization under the guise of benefiting society, losing sight of the essence, and losing the protection of the divine. And recently, new developments have emerged.

Initially, there is a "fluctuation" between the cult organization and the higher power, making the protection of the higher power or the spiritual group uncertain. The connection weakens, and after a period of instability, where the connection is sometimes established and sometimes lost, the organization completely loses the protection of the spiritual group. Only the cult group remains, having lost the protection of the spiritual group. The dogma remains, but the protection is lost. Only the "form" of humanity and the dogma remain.

It seems that organizations tend to create hierarchies of ego, leading to cult formation and the loss of support from the higher power and the spiritual group. It seems that personal connections that spread by chance, or spiritual lineages that are not based on such principles, even within organizations, do not connect. If the organizational hierarchy becomes the main focus, it becomes a superficial cult organization.

Thus, after many failures, the lesson learned is that forming a group may not be a good idea, and there is a tendency to fail. Even with Buddha, it seems that it started as a personal relationship between Buddha and his disciples, rather than a group. The same was true for Christ. Buddha and Christ did not create religions. While a group is necessary as a foundation for activities while the guru is present, it seems that it is quite difficult for a group to continue as a sect. There are religions that prohibit disciples from creating a religion and limit it to one generation, but those may be gurus who understand the essence quite well.

The key is the individual, not the group. Individuals should learn the essence and, without relying on the group, even if they learn in a group, they should not become enslaved, and the attitude of walking on their own strength is what will create a new spiritual trend.

(As a final note, there are some groups that, in order to obtain high tuition fees, persuade people by saying "for the sake of one's own spiritual growth," and then sell the applicants to night establishments (probably with kickbacks). It is terrible. Not only does it become a cult, but there are also people in the spiritual industry who are exploiting the students. We must be careful.)
