HBOMax Recommendation | Breath Of Fire… Story of Cult Kundalini Yoga Instructor Guru Jagat!

[@kimchi9560]

I tried to start a cult of Brutal Honesty but no one wanted to join. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@viviand9493]

🤣That scares people the most! 💚

I'm always down for a documentary about cults. I had a great aunt who died at Jonestown.

[@MafGeek]

Oh my. 💜

[@Jennifer83881]

Sorry to hear about your great aunt. There are so many spin off cults from ✝️⛪️. 😔

[@brianchapman8531]

@Jennifer83881 Thank you, but that all happened 5 years before I was born. Just last year, my aunt stumbled across a letter of hers that the great aunt had sent from Guyana saying how well they were doing. It's all so interesting to me. I can't fathom how people get duped into these things.

[@angelawilliams9088]

So sorry for your loss 😢

[@cassandraodle4794]

OMG! I was a kid in Guyana when that went down. I remember feeling so frightened.

[@AnnMarieBurke-bj8dj]

Cults are ripe pickings for extremely vulnerable people who are desperate!

[@viviand9493]

Lonely too. I watched this and it was so interesting. I almost didn't 'cause I love yoga but I pushed passed my bias. T's right, riveting!

[@AuntieMamies]

That's what makes it so heinous too. They have to prey on people that are desperate with no intentions of helping them

[@cherokee1298]

Exactly

[@justagirlsd3000]

@Tabitha I’m from Los Angeles and in high school 1974-78. I had a friend whose parents were in a cult. She didn’t live with them. She lived in a house with a whole bunch of people who weren’t family. They remodeled the attic to a prayer room where sermons were held. It was weird and creepy. I wish I had kept track of her.

[@MSLILLY4533]

Tabitha we witnessing a cult in real-time 😂😂...Side note Tabitha you need to do a movie review channel.

[@cherokee1298]

I say this all the time.

[@Jennifer83881]

May I suggest some reading: "How to be Antiracist" by Ibram X Kendi "How to Stand Up to a Dictator" by Maria Ressa "How to Win an Information War" by Peter Pomerantsev I am listening to the audio book for the middle one now. I have already finished the 1st & last ones. I listen while I go about my day. Happy Thanksgiving for those in the States.

[@Ropeorsnake]

thanks for book recommendations 📚🫶🏼

[@mcsmith732]

I like "On Tyranny" by Timothy Snyder. An oldie but goodie is "Escape From Freedom" by Erich Fromm. Then there's "Origins of Totalitarianism" by Hannah Arendt.

[@Jennifer83881]

@mcsmith732 Thank you so much for these suggestions. I have them all reserved from my local library, just today. I plan to listen to "On Tyranny " right after I finish "How to Stand Up to a Dictator". Thank you for sharing these book recommendations. I hope you have a lovely holiday season.

[@silvergoddess3362]

Great suggestion, that you . I am a yogi and am very vigilant of these cults . Yoga is such a beautiful teaching and people like this corrupt it.

[@Ropeorsnake]

right, spiritually isn’t possible if there’s abuse

[@kerplunk9434]

Real spirituality comes from within. Nothing is outside us. We are creators.

[@AuntieMamies]

The "skinny white woman". Every cult leader has one. She's supposed to sand down the rough edges of the leader and make them more appealing to the world. I learn about all this from Knitting Cult Lady. If you're interested in cults her channel is really great

[@tonyafrica7085]

Hey 👋 Tabitha hope all is well sister; happy holiday and thanks for sharing!!!

[@bAnt2601]

I believe this is a true American story

[@ellasabe6377]

I love watching cult documentaries. They're very educational in deconstructing what kind of people fall into these situations and HOW. It also makes it easy to compare and contrast to current extremist political movements and how the followers of said movements end up mixed into the same bag of tricks.

[@---Dana----]

Human beings are not what we tell ourselves. We are easily manipulated and can turn on a dime.

[@MargaretMannone]

I'm too much of a rebel -they'd kick me out!

[@latreasabanks494]

My mouth way to flip to be bossed.

[@mzephyr]

Ooooo… I’m going to check this out. Will report back in after watching. Thanks Tabatha for the recommendation! 👏🏼

[@roses4me451]

I saw the documentary on Yogi Bhajan. They paid big money to come to his "hot yoga" classes. You wouldn't believe your eyes and ears the way he talked to those people. Made millions. They said he was a total "fake".😮

[@bamagrl26]

Happy Thanksgiving sis. Can't wait to watch tonight

[@bees.857]

I watched this when they were dropping an episode per week and I should have just held off bc the waiting drove me INSANE 😂. I've watched several docs/KZbin videos about Katie and this new HBO one is, by far, THE BEST. I love a cult doc too, my favorite is WILD, WILD COUNTRY on netflix!

[@blufaerie]

I’m not cooking, but we are watching it now. It never ceases to amaze me how ppl play on other ppl’s vulnerabilities. And how easily ppl are willing to follow someone (and pay) to attempt to “fix” their lives.

[@CoachSherri]

You recommend very interesting shows. I started watching Cross because of your recommendation. I’m going to start watching this series too. Thanks for putting us on.

[@tasha8102]

Thanks…I have been eyeing this documentary for a couple of weeks now. That will be my show to watch tomorrow as my family did Thanksgiving this past Sunday.

[@chefSqueez]

Thanks for the recommendation Tabitha! Urs are always on point! Happy Thanksgiving ❤❤❤

[@Ropeorsnake]

Happy Holiday everyone 💕🫶🏽🤲🏽❤️🧡💛

[@ricebeansrockroll882]

I kept getting this in my recommended and was on the fence about watching, you made me start watching it and... wow. Just... wow.

[@KatelynRichards-p6y]

Khundalani is a state of being not something you can pay for

[@GoodBeets4ME]

you might wanna watch the doc. The teacher from India made up all the lineages attested to this style. All. Made. Up. Ive dont some of the practices over the years, seemed ok. All, Made. Up.

[@kimchi9560]

@@GoodBeets4ME Kundalini is a concept of awakening the chakras. The yoga is BS but the concept is ancient.

[@GoodBeets4ME]

@@kimchi9560 kinda sorta. did you see the documentary?

[@kimchi9560]

@@GoodBeets4ME I didn’t. I studied the chakras for a year.

[@enchantedrockview]

Yet... 😉

[@AsWeGoAlongWithAngelAAPRP]

Been eyeing this one. Familiar with the Kundalini culture. Sometimes you don’t realize you’ve joined a cult until you’re in one.Yogi Bhajan is another shady character. Money and adulation don’t corrupt, they reveal

[@hanagreen1909]

Great review Tabitha! Watch out for the spoilers.😆

[@Woodsprite66]

Great recommendation. Enjoyed my afternoon binging this. Yogi student for the last 30 years and a yoga teacher for 6. Wow

[@leighalaughlin4056]

I know this story thanks!!

[@MafGeek]

And it always comes down to the grift.

[@sweettee8110]

I just finished the first episode. If this was a book, it'd be a page turner.

[@PATMCKEON007]

Thanks for the recommendation Tabitha...Happy Thanksgiving 🎉

[@RPS-ul2is]

Ahh yes Heard of it. Here is another ELRONS HUBBARDS BOOK OF SCIENTOLOGY. Two of many books that brings the gullible and weak minded fully under subjugation. There is another that would make these lesser books look like child’s play….. facts. The CON OF HUMANITY IS REAL. Wonderful share though. 💯🎯👍🏾👍🏾

[@MafGeek]

Me too - most docs/cult docs! Ty for the review.

[@FocusOnWhatYouLove-t6c]

I love docs about cults too. I will definitely watch ty 💜

[@colettewilliams3575]

I saw it. Great documentary!

[@mcsmith732]

I always thought that "The Ant Hill Kids" was the worst cult I ever heard of. Except, of course, for the trump cult.

[@chinweokoye9949]

Saw it. It was great!!

[@sly5346]

Not my kind of viewing, but keep the recommendations coming in. Some of the best shows have come by suggestions.

[@jodyhall8731]

Yes. It's true

[@swone6349]

Is this the Tulsi Gabbard yoga cult ?

How about the cult show on HBO on Nvium??? The Vow? I owned a business and went to a bunch of leadership workshops and had seen people hanging around the top guru and was amazed because I could see how A quest to success can be manipulated.

[@marieharley5330]

Hey there my sister, love your thoughts and the way you talk about it all. Hope you have a great thanksgiving. Just to let you know, sis and I went to Sephora and got the foundation. We found a 35.00 special on sale for $17.00 for the same product you bought. Please let your people know. Thanks for the heads up.

[@Ice-c-o8q]

Hi, Tabitha. I just watched a KZbin video posted 2 wks ago of Donald Trump saying he's going to resolve homelessness by building tent cities and addressing the underlying causes of homelessness. Have you seen it and what do you think of it? I know that some homeless people go to work everyday and sleep in campers or their cars. If you've already done a video on this please direct me to it. Thanks.

[@blackstrongmom73]

Despite watching other cults and now witnessing the current one, I am always confused as to how the mind resist logic intelligence and common sense for someone who does nothing for them. Literally dissed them and they cling to that feeling of whatever for living and thriving.

[@estellabranson1887]

Did you watch the jamican female detective show on HBO?

[@ILuvBLU17]

The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency with Jill Scott? Great show, I hate HBO cancelled the series a few years back.

Don't forget about all the hot mess the ✝️⛪️ tries to cover up. For centuries, in every branch & has been so easily spun into their own cult.

[@angelawilliams9088]

Putin doesn't think trump is smart! He's too busy making fun of him! 😂

[@jenniferdunn2273]

I respectfully disagree with your take on this documentary. While the documentary focuses on Guru Jagat, she did not start this cult. It was started by an Indian man who came here and fleeced American's. He did a vast amount of damage and horrible things. He made it in to a massive money maker before his death. It was then taken over by a white man who used a white woman to grow it more. But it was already massive before she came on board.

[@michaellegabriel7381]

As you said Tabitha, misappropriation of brown culture. However, I want to point out Kundalini yoga is a wonderful ancient practice you can do at a local yoga studio or by yourself online. There are books as well. No cult needed 😊. It can be a great source of self care during the times we are in ❤.

[@bolaadetiba8220]

Sheeesh, come ‘er. Christianity is also a cult. All religions are cults of different degrees!!!

[@eg3186]

I watched this so not surprised by the nefarious practices smh. This behavior is very American smh.
