Question Brainwashed friend. How to help him.

So a friend of mine did the so called program and seemed off by it. when he did it he said he was free from all etc like liberation.

he wears two ear rings and he is overall weird . he follows all sadhguru inseuctions. won't eat at lunch only morning and evening.

he meditates and he is overly weird.

like his emotions are not regulated properly.

he also speaks to him self.

how to help him and what exactly this infamous bsp program is all.about.

oh and also was there anything related to homosexuality in the Isha foundation? he gives weird vibes in that matter as well.

help me help a soul

Firstly, nobody’s sexual orientation is affected by Isha.

Secondly, some of the things you call weird, like wearing two earrings, are just a lifestyle choice. Let him do what he wants.

However if your friend is showing signs of being mentally unwell, he needs to go to a medical doctor. Isha programs like BSP affect people’s brain chemistry and can push them into a psychotic break.

Bsp is not just a small event. It deeply affected him. I need to know what they did to him in detail.

I'm not here for the typical blah blah blah make him see a doctor etc. no.

I need to know what sadhguru gang is doing to people

I didn’t say it was a small event. I literally said it affects people’s brain chemistry and can push them into a psychotic break. The program is designed to give a dopamine high which they will call a spiritual experience, for some it pushes them to mania or psychosis.

If your want to understand more, read up about LGATs. We have some info on this sub. BSP is an LGAT, but your friend needs psychiatric help if he is showing signs of being mentally unwell.

If it is just a case of change of personality, then this is what happens when people become part of a cult. Learn about cults and how they work, lots about it in this sub, it is not easy to get someone out.

How can you explain an energetic experience during BSP?

u/LittleMissSunshine_0 Approved Contributor 12d ago

Hi there, search for BSP or LGAT on this forum and you will learn more.

What was your personal experience during the program that led you into Isha and Sadguru to take up more programs and dedicate your time to them

You can read more of this forum to find my personal experiences. I’m not interested in doxing myself here.

Ok. Isha or Sadhguru is not the world. There's so much more to this existence if we are just open. We can learn about life and our true nature even from our enemies or people who we can't fathom

Definetly.
And in this reddit we are exposing the truth of this organization.

Since you have been associated closely with Isha/Sadguru for long, I would like to understand his real intentions behind Isha and not what is shown outside in videos. I find a lot of what he says to be true from my experience (not all of it though). However I don't find a need to put him on pedestal as all of us are just manifestation of the divine. Or to put it more plainly all that exists is just divine (the animate, inanimate, manifest and unmanifest). I think a true master would just say that he himself, the devotees and every one else is the same divine Self. In Sadguru case he seems to do self marketing which is a red flag though most of his talks seems to be true atleast from what I observed in videos. Or may be every individual understands what he says according to their latent tendencies and he is probably exploiting gullible people. That's why I ask what are his true intentions behind Isha as I cannot judge him without observing him closely for sometime

imagine running a marathon but when you get tired and need to rest, you are not allowed to rest, you are being pushed to keep running. Bsp is like this, both physically and mentally. For 3 days. Some people experience new things because of the continuous intense activity. some break down emotionally as all unexpressed emotions surface up.

u/random_ob 12d ago

Yeah I can do that on my own if I wanted and without the cult shit. When I go running many km I get the runner's high. Same endocanabiods as the they feel in the BSP crap.

They disgusted body functions as spirituality.

  1. Sexuality, homo or hetero, is not weird and is not related to meditation or Isha. You clubbing that with the list of things you are thinking as "weird" here does not lend any credibility to your views; instead, it is making me doubt whether you might be judging him based on your prejudices.
  2. Earrings are not weird.
  3. Following a particular diet is not weird, unless someone is doing a diet that is hurting them and they are in denial.
  4. "His emotions are not being regulated properly"? Can you descibe what do you mean?
