»Tabitha», L. Ron Hubbard and Dianetics is much older than EST... When Werner Erhart got tired and quit; all that was left was a shell of a service/event corporation... Landmark moved in...
In 1991, Scientology was feeling the pinch from not seeming legitimate so they attempted to raise the bar with Landmark and Naranon...
Landmark Education is/was a sophomoric collection of "Generalizations" masquerading as insight and information, drilled into the clients in 5 blitz filled days over a weekend; a sort of marathon "toilet flush" meant to change lives and set up the more well heeled and intellectual potential clients for "T H E" Question: "Have you ever heard of Dianetics???" Run for your life if someone asks you that question (or the other questions:) "have you ever heard of Amway"; or Shackley, or Tupperware, or Rainbow Vacuum cleaners??? Run like "H*ll"...
Naranon is the Sci-Fi version of a 12-Step program without the common sense of Bill W. from "AA"... »Tabitha», I trust your carefulness in matters like this...
I last heard that Landmark had a Wed. and Thur. night "grinding" (sales promotion) sessions leading up to 5 hours Fri. night, 8am to 11pm both Sat. and Sun. followed by 2 more 5 hour nights... The Lack of sleep is intended to breakdown any resistance to new stuff and signing contracts...
Problem is, the information is pitched as being "WOWEE" stuff, that is way toooo juvenile to be of any significance... They even warn against divulging any these secret words and phrases, or they will find you and sue you!!!!
