The Power of Cults: Recovery from Religion podcast
I stumbled upon this podcast the other day. When I was 33 and entering a cult, there was little public awareness re cults or religious abuse, and when I was 38 and exiting, there still was little circulating on the subject. There were a few books re cults or religious abuse, but you had to search for them. That’s now changed. There’s now a lot of information circulating re cults, and the public is more aware. I’ve listened to several episodes on this podcast, all personal interviews with people who had experiences similar to mine. This episode, The Power of Cults, Podcast #15, is an interview with Dr. Janja Lalich whose work I’ve long admired, and who is an excellent resource for explaining the phenomena of cults, and how intelligent people get swept up by them and don’t leave.
TEDx talk: I grew up in a cult. It was heaven and hell.
OUTSTANDING, POIGNANT, POWERFUL, UPBEAT! What a light! Lilia Tarawa intricately and eloquently describes how heaven and hell can be entwined within the cult environment.
