Eckankar is very much Scientology in Drag

Not the same thing obviously, and of course Eckankar has integrated many
other ideas, concepts, philosophies, psychology and myths over and above,
and often diametrically opposed to the Scientology aspects Twitchell
"lifted" from Hubbard.

It doesn't matter how much or how little specific "plagiarisms" have been
discovered - for the WELL Twitchell drew from and used is far greater than
anyone will ever find by searching for verbatim coping from known texts.

If a transcript arrives I will copy/paste many of the keywords and concepts
this chap uses in explaining what Scientology is and what he believes.

The similarities to Eckankar teachings and beliefs will blow many away
who have the courage to look into such matters. And then realise a little
more truth about Twitchell and what ECKANKAR really is - vs the PR.

Cheers

Get to know your local Scientologist

A man steeped in The Church of Scientology tells Susan Murphy
what he believes and why it feeds him spiritually.

This is a very good short 30 minute interview that is really well done.

ABC public radio - in audio/download - no transcript yet
http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/earshot/get-to-know-your-local-scientologist/6994264


Get to know your local Scientologist

Come inside the usually tightly closed world of Scientology. Susan Murphy has gained friendly, candid access to the mind and world view of a devotee, fifty-something Polish-Australian Henry Bartnik.

You've probably heard the talk, read the scandals, enjoyed the celebrity gossip, perhaps seen the powerful recent documentary, Going Clear. Among contemporary religious cults in Australia, Scientology has made the largest claims and been the most ferociously aggressive in its own defence.

The media has been exposing and baiting Scientologists ever since the Church emerged in the 1950s from the writings and efforts of science fiction writer L Ron Hubbard. He was famous for declaring, more than once, 'If you want to get rich, start a religion'.

But in this program take a startling, close-up look at the world as seen through the eyes of an ordinary man who's immersed himself in Scientology for more than 35 years. Then make up your own mind, about the first truly intergalactic religion on Earth.

OCCAM'S NIGHTMARE is an exploration of the world of conspiracy theories,
alternative science, pop culture, and how they all tie together. Mapping the
history of speculative and dubious ideas--from Nazi Germany, to H.G. Wells, to
the mystery of who really killed Kennedy--CRACKED writer and Three Minute
Philosophy creator S Peter Davis traces a genealogy of wacky hypotheses right
back to where they all began - and where they all went wrong.

For those mature enough .... more lessons from the master:

Three Minute Philosophy - Immanuel Kant

At least View this one on "Kant" and the 2nd Maxim to understand why it
is that Twitchell hated "Kant" so much~!!!

See? Knowledge is power after all. ;-)

OK more intriguing insights into Philosophy

More wisdom from the master ....

A clear sign of spiritual and intellectual mastery of life is
one's own sense of humour~!!!

eg IRONY - American's as a rule do NOT get Irony. That's a known fact!

Because it is '%100' (sic) TRUE~!!!


Oh I don't only like S Peter Davis - I love him!

and not only because he was born and grew up in my home city, or that when
he was doing these vids he was living in the suburb I lived in when I first
left home as a teen.

RE: Eckankar is very much Scientology in Drag
and keywords in the interview with Henry.

WHAT THE WORLD LOOKS LIKE THROUGH THE EYES OF A SCIENTOLOGIST vs an ECKist

Plus a look at the Semantics, Trademarks, Lingo, and Doctrine in action

LEFT words= Scientology (single word/phrase means the the same word in Eckankar)
RIGHT words = Eckankar terminology for the same thing on the Left

exciting first experience - totally new different
"it works doesn't it?"
"do the command" = do the Spiritual Exercise technique
spiritual nature
The Bridge = The Path
The Tech = The Teachings of ECK
totally Present
Facsimiles
reactive mind
reactive mind = unconscious mind
past experiences (this life and prior lives)
unseen influences = awareness of
Free
React aka Effect vs Be Cause!
Clear = 5th Initiate
thetan/soul = spiritual part = i am soul = real you
Goal of Clearing the Planet aka The Master's Great Mission
world reservoir of trauma aka world Karma
mocked up aka collective consciousness
erase the first cause aka resolve dissolve detach from effect
postulates
agreements
mock up = imagination
perceive it = imagination
OT Tech = HI Discourses
FACSIMILIES = PT FACSIMILIES- 'SOC' WHEN YOU'RE IN "IT" IT'S REAL
Shared Agreements
past lives / reincarnation / alien lives other galaxies/planets
time track and
viewing time track aka spiritual exercises and
reviewing seeing past lives = causal plane/soul plane "records"
exteriorization aka oobe aka soul travel
other thetans attached to our bodies = astral entities

LRH disinterest in body unimportant in human life/earth/this existence
is less important = don't come back here aka jivan mukti (ashcan of the
universe/worlds)

Game aka Game aka play the game of life
personal survival aka of soul
we are in a trap here
become aware = path of total awareness
Run Down Tech = personal past life awareness
Great Hubbard aka Great Twitchell now continuing research as thetan/soul no body
Focus on the self vs others/family
Love = detached love
Scientology "wedding ceremony"

a Dark Brew from a Paranoid period
Pulp/Science Fiction Author
ALL AMERICAN SALESMANSHIP
Corporate Mindset
Galactic Religion aka all other religion springs from Eckankar
Trapped in GAME refusing to look at any criticism
Alienating proponents from the riches of the world/life
Costing one's Soul in the Goal of saving IT
Shocked by such Negative views of a positive/good thing
Hubbard taught a "right" Understanding of Life
Established an Organization for "proper application" - HUGE JOB
THE Internet impact of
"Not True, I REFUSE to Believe it, I CANNOT Believe it"
The Vast wealth, Real estate holdings money made, the Catholic Church
"organizations will do what THEY need to do - it's the nature of Organizations"
"in all the naysayers you won't hear people that say it doesn't work"
(critics) do not know, have not done it for them self = YOUR FAILURE not ECKANKAR

(ALSO...)
OT Operating Thetan aka 8th Initiate
OT 8 aka eck master 9th initiate aka patti simpson
program = eck teachings/system ala Patti S in 2011 "the program" works
scientology works = eckankar works (but do they? )
Xenu aka Gakko from Venus aka Creation myths aka Mu Atlantis Root Races Aliens
S.O.P. normal human psychology in "groups"

The Incident aka South Park & Xenu OT8 Tech aka David Lane aka Apostates/Detractors
aka Public Criticism aka Exposure of Cover Ups/Secrets & Ignore it
& deny it & minimize the damage using Lawyers and the Law and Religion Status

-----

Then throw in Radhasoami, Hinduism, Buddhism, Kabir, Catholic Saints,
Pythagorus and other "eck masters" who were real people, the Occult,
New Thought, Christian Science, Spiritualists, Remote Viewing, OOBEs,
Fiction Authors, Theosophy, Rosicrucian, Freemasonry, Sufis Islam,
Scientists Physics, PR, Advertising, Grandiose Claims, Bernard, Haanel,
Psychology, Sant Mat, Bhakti Saints, Kriya Yoga, Mytics, Metaphysics,
massive amounts of PLAGIARISM like 90% plus of the "texts" and endless
LYING and then you may end up with a truer Understanding of WHAT is
ECKANKAR, HOW it "seems to work" for many and WHY it does NOT work
for others, ie the MAJORITY who come, then leave .................

Obviously Eckankar is much cheaper than Scientology to join and learn.

Unless one is wealthy and chooses to donate their small to large fortunes
or real estate properties to Eckankar, such the millionairess Helen Fry of
Sedona Arizona. That led to a court case over her Will, and Eckankar lost.

Or the person who donated an aircraft business and Lear Jet being "Dharma
Aircraft Ltd" which became the new Dharma Corporation in 1982.

This was connected with the simultaneous donation of Dharma's real estate
property adjoining Salem Airport on Shalishan St. SALEM Oregon, USA to
Eckankar circa 1977 (?)

See: 1983-06-12 Board Meeting Dharma Aircraft Bank Transfers - KLEMP SPIN
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-M0yAR0UPhPSFJYZDY1RHFZaXM/view?usp=sharing

The sale of the assets of that Dharma Aircraft Ltd property (or others) then
led to the purchase of the "Shalishan property" at GLEN EDEN BEACH Oregon.

This is where Eckankar built from scratch at it's cost a new home office for
Darwin Gross, Staff, and Eckankar Board meetings as well as for Glen Eden
Press (fully owned by ECKANKAR Corp. then but now defunct) to operate out
of legally.

After the kerfuffle over Darwin Gross and him getting the royal boot in Aug
1983, that Glen Eden property, house and buildings were subsequently sold
again for a tidy profit.

SEE Darwin's Glen Eden : Google Maps https://goo.gl/d0h0KX

What it is and looks like today: http://www.salishan.com/

There were many others and these multi-million valued donations are still
pouring into the Eckankar coffers as we speak. Especially now as the older
ECKists from the 1970s and 1980s continue to pass away in greater numbers.

Some old examples are:
Green Valley property in Las Vegas
the Portola property
Half the "Smoke Trail Ranch" of Helen Fry's in Sedona - Plus $100,000s in Cash.

More info:
"Helen Frye joined Eckankar in 1969, was an EK 8th Initiate, became
'involved' with Darwin Gross and in 1979 had a riff with him after she
discovered Twitchell's Plagiarisms!" (by Eliazabeth PTHA is not sure)

It appears that Helen befriended many within Eckankar along with the then
leader Darwin Gross and was on good terms with him initially. Eckankar was
'gifted' 330 acres, about half, of Helen's Sedona property circa 1976.

Eckankar controlled and staffed the ranch running it alongside with Helen
from about 1972 to 1981.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-M0yAR0UPhPM0ZoUkVKUkltbzQ/view?usp=sharing

A well known ex-ECKist Charly Wallace was Helen's bestie and was living on
her property with her when she died. He was also a witness in the court case
over her Deceased Estate, and with David Parker visited Paul's home town of
Paducah and spoke with his ex-wife Camille and many others.

Another 'infamous' ECKist, Douglas Marman also lived on the Eckankar portion
of that property in the 1970s - a dutiful 'volunteer' along with many more.

I think the biggest difference between Scientology and Eckankar today is that
Scientology has an extra one or two ZEROES at the end of it's TOTAL NET ASSETS
figure in it's annual IRS Income/Assets Report to the US Government.

That and the fact that 100% of all Assets and IP of the ECKANKAR "religious"
Corporation/s are wholly and solely legally owned and controlled by Harold
Klemp as an INDIVIDUAL and not by a "Board of Trustees":

FOR THE RECORD:
No one will find any information about this in a book titled THE WHOLE TRUTH
by Doug Marman.

Is there anything else anyone wants to know?

When People like Helen found out about plagiarisms and had a change of attitude do you think they went to Gail asking questions?

Gail was still living at the time, but her and Darwin got divorced in latter 1970s and Darwin soon after looked to put responsibility of LEM onto another; while still remaining part of the organization and drawing a check.

Connect the dots. Gail was selling things and securing a lot of money. Darwin was trying to run things one step removed from LEM. Iow both Darwin and Gail were reaping the benefits of their status and relationship with Eckankar, but from a position LESS LIABLE FOR PLAGIARISMS!

People could argue that it's just coincidence things happened at the times they did, but it is also possible many things were connected.

Did Helen, after learning of plagiarisms, change her attitude?

Did Charly and David turn to asking questions of Gail, Brad Steiger and Paul's relatives, etc.? Iow, were people affected by coming to learn fact from fiction?

Is fact and fiction what comes to divide people one against the other and create schisms within religion; and the forming of new sects? Is it fiction against fiction that causes this?

In the extreme case it could seem that "freedom of religion" amounts to a people believing they were told by God to conquer their neighbors and take their property. IMO that would be the extreme case.

Another case could be a person taking from library books and claiming that some ancient master told him to make out of them a new book; then adding the idea that the new teaching is central and all other religions are spokes coming off of it.

Oooh aaah, so now asking questions is considered as "abuse" by some dills
too?

What comes next then? The application of the Scientology equivalent of "fair
game" where anything and everything false can be said about Etznab because
he is a "suppressive person" according to the crazy values of some internet
nutter?

Will the nutter stoop to using 'law suits' in order to make his life a misery
and cost him a fortune and ruin his reputation and make him waste all his
life savings fighting this ABUSE by a NUTTER?

Time will tell .... but it;s not looking good for someone who does this.
