I've mentioned my Divine Light Mission (aka Elan Vital) cult years
(1981-85) many times, and you can read my own experiences at www.arthurchappell.clara.net/brainwashing.htm
Here however are some
Youtube snippets about their 'Living Messiah (not!) and his followers
that might be of interest to many of you too.

The main meditation
techniques - These are a closely regarded secret in the cult - but here
is some old film of followers cheerfully demonstrating them on camera.

Words of
rambling wisdom from the Master himself - Guru Maharaji - aka - Prem Pal
Rawat Sing speaks - hard to imagine I found him so charismatic at all -
actually just meandering and boring shrill and squeaky.

Of all my observations on the cult, the one that draws the most increduality is
my statement that I, and others, used to queue up literally in our thousands to
kiss our Guru's feet at a ceremony called Darshan - here is some
film footage of a Darshan taking place.
