In psychiatry, paraphrenia (paranoid form of schizophrenia) it is a mental disease that completely cuts people off from reality. The patient creates a fictional world built around bizarre interpretations, vague theories and delusions.
The numerous theories advocated by sects consist of elements often borrowed from myth and fictional literature. They testify to the guru's mania for greatness and his ability to connect the world of imagination with various sources. First of all, the guru tries to renew the thought, reaching for elements of esotericism, sorcery, as well as to the latest currents of thought. Compilation of it, strange and occult, we can find masters from all over the world – their forbidden cities (Agartalę, Atlantydę, Tibet etc.), extraterrestrials and their messages (UFO, drawings from the Cordillera in the Andes, megality), lost words and secrets (pharaohs, templariuszy, alchemików), communication with the world of the dead and reincarnation (from Beelzebub to Saint Michael the Archangel). These themes can be found in many initiation communities, in which there is no coercion and whose animators are generally sane. In such a case, these motives only serve to support the development of adepts and the maturation of "initiatory" searches. They should be read as symbolic values and not taken literally.
It is different with the guru. Maharishi recommends levitation to reduce crime. This is how he speaks to his disciples who belong to the Transcendental Meditation:
Maharshi spoke to the first Purvsha in Boppard. He proposed, to increase the consistency of the timing of our flights in this way, to make the most of 5000 the German Sidha practiced their flight program at the same time.
In turn, Rael. immediately after, as he was received with great pomp by little green men, he returned to Earth with the following message:
We have the worst news: your Earth is doomed, she will destroy herself and no one will be able to intervene, nor to disturb, nor to help her kill herself.
By Jehovah's command, a man of God came from Judah to Bethel and spoke: «The altar will break […] thanks to the destroyer-. One of the creators will destroy the altar and burn the hand of one of the people, who did not respect the creators. The Creators cannot eat outdoors because of their suits, but they can use different offerings if necessary, to get the essential thing out of them with the help of a flexible pipe.
Scientologists, referring to the doctrine revealed "during the passage of the Wall of Fire", they blithely mix various texts and create a "historical narrative" about their sect. We find the same kind of cosmic vision in Harry Palmer's teaching, dissident of Scientology, whose science is just as ridiculous. Oto fragment jego Course of magi.ci.ens of auatar materials (A Course for Mages of Complete Transformation)91:
25000 years ago […] the beings of the galactic confederation were able to concentrate their thoughts effortlessly and with great precision. […] In a confederation, wisdom was measured by the amount of knowledge, that the creature had. Each generation expanded the scope of this knowledge. In the end it was calculated, that its scope will become that great, that a member of a confederation could not live long enough, to learn it all. It was then that the confederation used a technique called indoctrination by agitation. The process was similar to visiting the cinema, however, instead of ice cream, a highly sensitizing drug was administered and the room was filled with a synthetic plasma of mental energy at a high level of vibration. The images were scrolling on the screen at hundreds of times normal speed. In this way, the data was planted in the mind of the viewer.
A little later, there were riots in the confederation, films became textbooks for military education and political indoctrination. […]
Galaxia was in the expansion phase and the application of new forms of gravity. The constancy of collective consciousness in the central worlds began to be disturbing. There was an error in evaluation, which led to the contraction of the confederation of the central worlds. It was a snake in the garden. The Snake represents beliefs instilled by agitation coiled in spirit and ready to strike. The Garden of Paradise is the collective consciousness of the central worlds before the perturbations, t…]
The outer rim of the Milky Way began to slow down, and events caused a violent gravitational disturbance.
Many civilizations fell into oblivion… But Karsak Trytona inherited the knowledge and culture of the confederation and was able to pass on scientific and technical knowledge. Civilization, in which the collective consciousness has broken free from the chains of beliefs, it has evolved into a radiant age. Same. Her name: Comrade Estro.
Triton's Karsak has become a great gray rock, most of the population starved to death. However, the glimmer of hope survived: Comrade Estro.
The growing circle of companions of test pilots assumed responsibility, which fate had entrusted to them. They have vowed to bring wisdom to the middle worlds. […] They used their time from start to finish. […] This is their mission: help all civilization, which has reached the end of its technical maturity, pass unhindered to the age of light, before it destroys itself.
I remind you, that Earth is a hotbed of life, and that its photosynthetic process is still intact. Welcome to the Magicians' courses!
Numerous dissertations were written, in which there are stories straight from science fiction and elements of culture that are easy to identify (loss of paradise, apocalypse, knowledge without awareness, etc.) These threads can be multiplied endlessly and prove the guru's extreme ability to generate nonsense., and especially their ability to respond to the desires of their "subjects".
