My First Blog Post

Welcome to my sarbsblog!

‘Nothing is as it appears; but everything is, as it is.’

— unknown (to me)

This is the first post on my new blog. I’m just getting this new blog going and I’m pretty excitied. I’ve always been fascinated by religious belief systems and have followed, more than my fair share of them, at various times, starting from an early age. I later, considered myself, spiritual, rather than religious, as I became dismayed with the hypocrisy, lies and abuses, that consistently prevailed, over the religious ideals being expounded, in these groups. As I later explored, cult recovery, mind control, hypnosis and other related topics and with the help of a post-cult counsellor, I finally undid, the curse of fervent religious searching, that had plagued me since childhood. I’m here to share my journey and somewhat, controversial conclusions about thought manipulation, as applied in religious sects and society, more generally. My experiences include, growing up in a extreme sect, yoga and meditation practice, covert narcissist in the family, Christianity and over a decade in the controversial Church of Scientology.
