Summary

This 2018 30th anniversary edition honors the 40th anniversary of the tragedy in Jonestown, Guyana. On November 18th, 1978, over 900 people including a U.S. congressman Leo Ryan died because of Cult Leader Jim Jones. Over 300 were children forced to drink cyanide-laced Kool-Aid by their parents who believed they were doing Godโ€™s will. A vast array of methods exist to deceive, manipulate, and indoctrinate people into closed systems of obedience and dependency. If you are reading this updated book for the first time, please know that you have found a safe, respectful, compassionate place. This book can help you protect or regain your sanity, freedom, and health. It can help you protect others from the use of mind control techniques. In this 30th anniversary volume you will find:


  • Stories of people who fell under the sway of undue influence but who were able to break free.

  • Information on the many sophisticated ways that social media are now used for mind control.

  • Updates on the many types of organizations that use mind control.

  • Information on the neuroscience behind mind control.

  • A look at what legislators, courts, mental health professionals, and ordinary citizens can do to resist mind control and make our world a safer place.

People around the world remain largely unprepared for the realities of mind control. But there is much you can do to stay safe, sane, and whole - and to help the people you care about. If someone you love is already part of a mind control group, help them break free and rebuild their life using the tools from this book. As you read this book, you will learn to develop, use, and trust your critical thinking skills; your intuition; your bodily and emotional awareness; your ability to ask the right questions; and your skill at doing quick, useful research. You will also learn to create a healthy balance of openness and skepticism. The entire process begins and ends with discernment.
