I can briefly share MY cult experience. I did LSD when 15, and these were big powerful trips I had in that 15th year till past 16, so it really was a mindblower for me a kid

This all happened in complex circumstances of me chasing a dream and having to fend for myself more or less in a big city

Up to the LSD I had been absolutely obsessed with cities and the natrual world bored me, but LSD got rid of that which now I see as materialist mindcontrol---making us dead to the natural and totally dependent on the technomatrix city existence (which is leading to 'transhumanism!')

So to cut long story short. My dream doesn't materialize and I return to my hometown. I am though searching, and one day walking through the town centre a Hare Krishna devotee targets me (am 17 now), and sticks a hare Krishna mag in my face. On the cover is a pic of Krishna playing a flute, stood with a legs cross pose. it all looks very trippy, and I am drawn in.

They offer free food on certain nights so I began going, and then one of the devotees began visiting me at home, and eventually I decide to leave home and join their temply in Edinburgh Scotland, in January, the middle of winter!!!

So I gets there, and Edinburgh  IS freezing and it smelt like tea, or that stuff they put in beer.

The temply doesn't have much heating and we have to take COLD showers at 3:30 in the morning!!

I went on this singalong with em through streets there, 'hare krishna, hare krisha, hare hare...'etc and we got stones thrown at us by some youths

My cult job was washing up food dishes in cold water

One day I was doing what we weree supposed to do, chant hare krishna etcetc on these beads so many times. The purpose being to get Krisha as sole centre of consciousness. And I looked at these people pacing up and down doing this and thought 'this is a freakin madhouse!' and I quietly got my stuff together and sneaked out, but this very tall German devotee clocked me (had worked in kitchen with him and we are friendly) and tried to catch me but I escaped and got a ride on the back of a motor bike.

This had all been one week and it is still winter, and so dig. I have thin pants on, and am on bacl of a motor bike and it is freezing. When he stopped for us to stay at a friends for the night. I couldn't feel my legs lol. Like rubber

I carried on though still connected with the cult for a while longer at home and even went to the house that George Harrison had given then in Hertfordshire, because the 'spiritual master' Srila Praphupad was going to stay, and I met and shook Geroge's hand on the stairs of this grand house

I had this sexual fling with his body guard (this is all true) who had a sword and was given right to behead anyone who attacked the guru. This is how I came to meet George because I was close to Praphupad's room.

Glad you enjoyed it.

yes, the hare Krishna cult is all against the physical body. When the devotee used to come visit me and say i offered him a cushion, he'd reject it saying that the body cannot get used to comfort.

They viewed the bod as some hairy animal vessel which was inferior and prone to disease and death. This is why they wanted COLD showers at 3:30 in the freakin cold morning. To punish the body's love for warmth and comfort

They longed for a transcendental heaven on Krishnaloka where they could focus on krishna for ever and ever
