Knowledge is not power I guess?

So I dont know who posted these to the MPA website, but she is clearly discounting that knowledge is of any importance to children's development. If this website ever decides to take this stuff down, ill just be glad i got all this info now. Ironically, as she angrily seems to attack parents for wanting their kids to learn, she states that love is a better answer than knowledge. I guess my question is where is, or was, the love?

Miri Piri Academy - the new living hell.

I was part of 3HO or the “healthy, happy, holy organization” until I was 19. It was considered a sect of Sikhism but in reality it was a dangerous cult. I was brought up into their values and perceptions and thinking from birth. Something in the back of my mind even as a very young child told me something was wrong. My mother always made me put on a turban for school and I’d ask every day when I could take it off.

I had a farewell party with my friends, my mom took me to the zoo the day before I left and we bo...

We cannot let this get swept under the rug again. These children deserve better. I deserved better. We all did. This school cannot be allowed to continue, I will sacrifice everything I have left in me that was not destroyed by this school to make sure that happens.  Now, since I am also an artist I was very moved by some of the artwork some of the students have done over time. They tend to only post the winners. But some of these artworks are somewhat disturbing. They are things I would have drawn if I was feeling traumatized or in pain. Yes, I know there is not evidence to suggest that is actually the case, but it broke my hea...

What were they thinking?

Recently I decided to search the MPA website and looked back in their archives. I found some rather disturbing things. Yogi Bhajan, the leader of 3HO, who has now been accused of countless acts of sexual abuse to adults and children alike, gave the school some rules. Well...he gave everyone rules, it was a cult after all. Anyways, these are some of the things people seemed to think were ok because this cult leader told them to.
