Info on Divine Energy Church and Links to 53 Stories on Most Violent Swami

My immense gratitude to you Frank for providing this space. It’s easy for Horsetail to say it’s over, but is Horsetail fighting for their life after serious sexual violence and drug abuse from the man we all placed on a pedestal? Based on comments made previously, I don’t believe so. Shoemaker needs to be exposed again and again and again. We all know what happened last time. Yeah, nothing. Actually, it probably got worse.

The damaging impacts of criminal, toxic, abusive people in leadership positions are often known for years before they are held to account. That can only happen when the sheer volume of complaints about the abusive individual is impossible to silence anymore.

In response to this comment:
If it ever looked and felt like you described no one would ever come there. You also don’t appear to know what happened to your daughter? Am I the only one that is puzzled by this? I want to be sensitive to your daughter. Most people on here do. Help us understand.

This statement is classic DARVO. Attack the victim or the whistle blower. https://www.choosingtherapy.com/darvo/

I visited my daughter various time over the three years of her residence at that horrible place. She was fraudulently recruited, love bombed, groomed, indoctrinated and exploited. The cult members used gaslighting, lies and manipulation to keep the “truth” hidden from me about what went on at the Movement Center. When I called the Movement Center to inquire about my daughter’s condition, Sharon Ward told me she was, “on the spectrum, had an eating disorder” and was anxious. None of which were true. I have been criticized for not knowing what was happening at the Movement Center, that was the objective of the use of gaslighting, lies and manipulation, to hide the truth and to protect J. Michael Shoemaker and the inner circle. Some of the commentors may not be in agreement with my descriptions, they also may not agree with what others are telling law enforcement. Lies are being uncovered, the narrative is out there now, and inner circle cult members can no longer control it.

If you want to be sensitive to the victims/survivors, as the commentator stated above, believe them. You can report what you did, before someone else does! If you were indoctrinated and coerced, you can report that too. Now is the time to ask for immunity. Tell law enforcement what you saw, what you experienced that was brutal, harmful, and damaging. If people weren’t harmed and exploited at the Movement Center under the direction of J. Michael Shoemaker, there would be no reason for Frank Parlato to publish his articles and to republish the work of Richard Read.
Through the Richard Read and the Frank Report articles, victims/survivors and witnesses to abuse have put forward their truths. Now, some commentators have questioned these statements and others have asked about injuries that victims of Shoemaker could have based on what has been reported.

Here is a review. This is what victims/survivors of traumatizing, violent cult leaders are dealing with:
Strangulation
Concussions and Traumatic Brain Injury
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome
Post Cult Complex PTSD
Rape Trauma Syndrome
Physical Injuries from Beatings and Abuse

Strangulation: One of the most lethal abuser tactics
https://www.domesticshelters.org/articles/health/strangulation-can-leave-long-lasting-injuries

“Most abusers do not strangle to kill. They strangle to show they can kill,” says Gael Strack and Casey Gwinn in the American Bar Association’s Criminal Justice. However, it is important to realize, “When a victim is strangled, she is on the edge of homicide.”

Concussions and Traumatic Brain Injury:

Complex Regional Pain Syndrome
Swami Chetanananda’s understanding of the Breath of Life has been further influenced by his study of a range of energetic healing systems and modalities. For eighteen years, Swamiji studied with Dr. Rollin Becker, a gifted cranial osteopath. Taken from http://chetanananda.org/about/

Shoemaker claims in his bio that he is a healer and uses his energetic healing knowledge to heal his students’ bodies. Such brutal physical adjustments that Shoemaker calls healing are violent physical assaults that cause injuries to soft tissues and joints.

Post cult Complex PTSD
There are three distinct symptoms of Complex PTSD: hyperarousal, intrusion, and constriction. Each of these symptoms incorporates symptoms that are both psychologic (relating to the mind or mental phenomena) and somatoform (physical symptoms without physical cause).
