Letter to AMORC French Grand Master Serge Toussaint, AMORC English Grand Master Julie Scott, AMORC Spanish Grand Master Jose Luis Aguilar Moreno, AMORC Dutch Grand Master Nicholas Bakker, EGL Board Vice President Lonnie Edwards

I was interested to see you are writing a blog actively promoting the cult AMORC.  So I have concluded that, unlike Christian Bernard, you are not hiding since the publication of my two books, The Prisoner of  San Jose and AMORC Unmasked. To me, this evidences a kind of courage, perhaps based on your profound conviction that AMORC is the true and best way to develop Cosmic Consciousness and reach the apex of divine awareness.  For this reason, perhaps, you are willing to meet me half-way and address my questions and observations about AMORC, developed after 24 years of membership.

CREATE MULTIPLE TRIGGERS
TO INVOKE THE CULT PERSONALITY

Envelope them in exercises, ritual and special practices so that they walk, eat and sleep in specifically branded ways, reflecting Rosicrucian practices and traditions. By doing this, you will create multiple triggers to invoke the cult personality whenever doubt arises.

CLEARLY SHAPE THE NEW PERSONALITY

In light of the organization’s goals, shape the various techniques of mind control to fit its needs. If the organization needs workers, shape them to work hard and long hours; if it needs money, shape them to give everything they have to the organization, and ask everyone else to give everything they have.If it just needs membership fees, make sure that not paying these membership fees can have tremendously bad consequences, at least mentally, for the deficient member.

VENERATED IMPERATOR OF AMORC-The Cult of H. Spencer lewis

A cult creates a “new man,” not in the image of God, as would be the goal of true mysticism- but in the shapes of its ulterior designs- which is to mold the personality of the member so it would become a perfect tool of the cult’s leaders. Yet, there is a human being whose real self is buried beneath the rubble of Mind Control. Here’s how I describe this phenomenon in The Prisoner of San Jose-
The cult personality if formed to direct extreme loyalty and attachment to the organization, dedication to its practices and overwhelming certainty about its beliefs. So, sometimes I would be living in conscious conflict, sometimes in extreme certainty and sometimes there would be moments of unconscious rebellion and occasionally total unconsciousness accompanied by missing time, the most extreme component of the process. 

In my inner self, I longed for freedom. But embedded in my cult personality, was a profound fear of leaving. Fear is the glue that the cult uses to create the sinews and flesh of the cult personality, creating a powerful chasm between the members’ real personality and his newly evolved fear-based traits of personality.

ANALYSIS OF ARTICLE 9 + FOSTER A FEELING OF GROUP SUPERIORITY

Give the member a sense of superiority and isolation from non-members. Label outsiders, enforce separation from outsiders, and make members paranoid about the value of outsiders.

ANALYSIS OF ARTICLE 8+  ISOLATING DOGMA

Create a set of practices and beliefs that can isolate the member from friends and family. Create an aura of secrecy or specialness about the members’ relationship to the cult. Whether you move up in the party echelon, take on special, official duties or get a higher degree- all can serve the same purposes.
In many ways, AMORC creates at the very beginning certain dogmas that creates a sense of uniqueness about AMORC. For one thing, in Mandamus No. 2, the monograph sets out the history of the order, focusing on how, in 1909, Dr. H. Spencer Lewis-

DECLARATION OF REMOTE INDOCTRINATION - ESTABLISH SPECIAL OBLIGATORIES - ANALYSIS OF ARTICLE 6

ESTABLISH SPECIAL OBLIGATORIES

Create busy work so that the student is fatigued to the point of sleep deprivation and therefore more vulnerable to suggestion. This could be reading assignments, special exercises, recruiting duties- as many extra responsibilities or assignments no matter how far away the actual leadership is.

ARTICLE 4 --DEVELOP A SACRED ENVIRONMENT--ANALYSIS

Have the member create an environment suitable for creating the hypnogogic state. Utilize costumes, special furniture, symbols, religious or political paraphernalia related to that environment. Brand that environment. The Nazis were superb at branding their environments. Adolph Hitler had his own personal architect for these buildings but he wound up in jail for most of his life.

ARTICLE 2 -  CREATE A HOLY TEXT

Utilize a text or texts requiring repeated readings and study that creates the claim of unquestioning authority of the organization. These could be religious, political, psychological literature or even commercial texts like a sales or product manual. These texts are holy, not in a conventional sense, but in the sense they are meant to be unusually or even irrationally revered by members. In multi-level selling organizations, there is a phenomenon you could call multi-level fever. And for us, there were the Monographs.

DECLARATION OF REMOTE INDOCTRINATION-ANALYSIS OF ARTICLE I

ARTICLE 1
 GAIN THEIR TRUST

Be logical, interesting and kind enough to gain their trust at the very outset. Increase their trust by pitching ancient, infallible teachings; powerful, invisible Masters; a seemingly verifiable pedigree; a membership that contains some of the most famous people in history, etc. Once members have their trust, they lower their defenses and can be manipulated.
