Hi all,
I am curious to know whether any of you have had the misfortune of participating, or being coerced to participate, in Landmark Education courses - the so-called "Curriculum for Living"? :bugeye:
I would fervently encourage people to do serious research on Landmark before being sucked in by its very effective, but highly misleading & dangerous advertising.
Landmark is an offshoot of Scientology or, more accurately, "EST" which was pioneered by the rogue-like Werner Erhard. It uses well-tested psychological techniques that take advantage of all human weaknesses in human personalities.
Luckily, I came to my senses on the day I was due to do my Landmark Forum. I was manipulated by my former employer and his mind controlling techniques to participate in the forum. He had been roped in by this exploitative cult 5 years ago and is still an active and highly involved (brainwashed) volunteer at Landmark. He used his position as my employer to 'recruit' me into Landmark. He has done this with all of his employees. Some have participated and rejected it, while others have become emotionally dependant on Landmark for their very identity and sense of self-worth.
Prior to doing the LM Forum, I conducted some research on the Internet and confirmed my suspicions. Landmark Education and all who support and promote it are essentially the "scum of the earth". People become emeshed in LM and its deplorable philosophies - often at the expense of friendships and relationships. At the extreme degree, it costs some participants their mental health. There are numerous accounts of participants subsequently suffering Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. See the criticisms of LM for yourself by checking out the following sites:

http://www.landmark-is-dangerous.com
http://homepage.mac.com/jk8/landmark/
Numerous other anti-LM sites can be found by doing a google search.
If you're feeling partial to this Landmark crap, perhaps you're interested in visiting their website: http://www.landmarkeducation.com
We really need to question the ethics and morality of individuals who can condone the manipulative thought reform employed by Landmark. My employer had no ethics whatsoever. For instance, I (and the other staff) had to 'fight' him to receive my wage! Among other things Landmark is supposedly about 'integrity' and 'authenticity'. Not paying employees is simply a cardinal sin. Yet this animal of an employer could sink thousands into perpertuating Landmark Education. LM courses begin at AUS$475 and go up to the $1000's.
If there is indeed a Hell, its fires await parasites from Landmark Education who benefit from others' misery.
