Rick Alan Ross is a private consultant, lecturer, and cult intervention specialist. He began his work as an anti-cult activist and community organizer in 1982.
Ross first became concerned about controversial groups and movements in response to a radical religious group that had covertly targeted his grandmother’s nursing home. Since that time he has raised awareness about cults and facilitated more than five hundred interventions to rescue people from cultic situations.
Ross is one of the leading experts on cults in the world today.
He has consulted with the FBI, the BATF, and various other law enforcement agencies, as well as the governments of Israel and China, on the subject of cults.
Ross has been qualified, accepted and testified as an expert court witness in eleven different states within the United States including US Federal court. He has worked as an expert analyst for CBS News, CBC of Canada, as well as Nippon and Asahi in Japan.
Ross has lectured at more than 30 universities and colleges including the University of Chicago, Dickinson College, Carnegie Mellon, Baylor, Wuhan University of China, Assumption University of Thailand and the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. He has also been published within peer-reviewed academic journals on the topic of cults.
Regarding his cult intervention work Ross states that historically about 75 percent of the people that he conducts an intervention with decide to leave the group by the end of such an effort. He has done interventions across the United States and around the world. Ross did two successful interventions with the notorious Branch Davidians led by self-styled messiah David Koresh.
Ross has appeared in numerous documentaries and has been interviewed and quoted in media all over the world.

The TM technique actually is beneficial. Just don't get further involved in the advanced programme or Yogic flying crap. Use the meditation technique for your wellbeing will do.
The semantics of hopping around like a frog is not the point. If he ruins lifes, then *that's* the problem.
So the TM leaders have anxiety attacks when asked about money issues! May be easier to talk about meditation & consciousness when others are paying the bills!
This is no different than the "mega church" pastors. We're all so gullible and sheep like.
EXACTLY..☀
He says he doesn't meet new people because they waste his time... Yet he takes the extra time to set up a video conference with people in the same house as him.
I do like the practice of mantra meditation. But... When someone makes sensational claims and then gets angry and stops the interview because he is asked about those claims, that is a pretty big red flag that something ain't right.
Whenever big egos get involved, something as simple and good as meditation is tainted. Just like what the Church did to Jesus' teachings.....You may not like your driving teacher, but you still like driving..
so what are you saying?
"New people waste my time"
Translation: "I only associate with loyal customers who pay me"
I went to an introductory session on TM tonight, the man running it spoke for about an hour, we watched a video of people who practise TM, they all spoke very highly of it's many benefits, i got the impression i was being sold a product, then right at the end he mentioned the course fees, it was way more than i could afford, so i left, i guess i had a lucky escape, judging by this video
They let me set up a payment plan. I feel foolish now.
Hahhaah
My friend if some Guru, monk ( as the person belongs to my religion ) or whatever you call him, ask for money, you can consider him fraud directly. As in religion, meditation is free. It doesn't require money to get relief from stress. Never go for them, they're just looting money.
If you go to the university or private k-12 school, you can learn for free.. it's still a scam though.
Same! I attended an Introduction session yesterday. I always always listen to my Intuition and yesterday I had an uneasy feeling that I couldn't brush off. I never ignore my feelings and I know through those feelings the Universe is trying to tell me something... So today I've decided I won't be enrolling myself into the TM classes.
60 minutes should do a segment on all these cults. It would be great to watch them compare them.
Real gurus don’t charge for a mantra!
Just the name "Maharishi" is a glaring example of self-aggrandizement. Any wise man who claims to be wise ipso facto not at all wise. This is basic folks! What a great idea. Just call yourself great seer, wear a robe and sit on a deerskin.
What does "maharihi" mean? Smart?
In india, its common for any conman with a big beard and a relaxation or concentration technique to declare they are maharishis, swamis, sadgurus etc etc. Women also do it. India is a crazy place
My guru lived in the
slums of Bombay and
used a public toilet
until he passed away
in 1981
Exactly
Thanks for sharing this document for the good of humanity. His disciple sri sri ravi shankar is still ripping people off with the art of living sect!!!! My sister is still in.......
I went to the university, learned TM, Suffered greatly health wise, suffered socially, left the cult, 2 years out and I'm still not doing okay. It sucks.
Just hoping to enroll to this uni.. I'd love to hear your story if you like.
Omg so glad you are being honest. Sometimes it feels like no one believes me
Same here. Could you expound on your experience. Saving someone from going through an experience similar to yours could be cathartic:)
They hop like frogs and they call it flying Newton would go bonkers seeing this
A real yogi will never ask money for mantras. There are no secret mantras or personal mantras.
"My concern is that for some folks TM has been a nightmare the organization simply ignores. [Imagine taking out a $3000 loan to pay for a TM course and then discovering that doing TM gave you intense headaches and the checking made things worse ... and you still owed the bank $3000.]
Mahesh wanted money and used, or do I mean sacrificed, people to get it. Ostensibly, he needed a lot of money to sustain his wonderful organization that is/was helping so many (well, that's what he claimed).
We have long noted that the organization that teaches TM is mostly on its own to be self-sustaining (happily government funding has been generous in curious ways) while the Shrivastava family (Mahesh's relatives) seems to have the money.
What has also been noted is that it is unclear what they do with that money."
This comment belongs to an ex teacher of TM.
Hi Paul, sorry you have had a bad experience. I do think the price is too high. I paid $75 to learn TM in 1977. and $$200 for advanced technique. Then $3000 for the sidhis. CIC 3...........nothing but good has ever come out of my experiences using TM and being at MIU for quite a while.
Everyone's experiences are different.
I raised the issue that I wasn't transcending during meditation; my teacher assured me that I was! I've since always viewed it as a money making racket
@kenan mass Same here too.
I thought the fact that you had to have a secret mantra only their instructor can give you was sus af, but now I see TM is batshit crazy.
meditation shouldnt cost a thing
Rivver Bonner and it doesn’t
Exactly.
Thank God for internet. Everything is getting exposed.
Maharishi was very busy with people who paid one million euros for a day with Maharishi.
The Guru wasn't immortal after all.
Did TM back in the day. You can definitely meditate by focusing on a sound based mantra. MMY was a master of incomprehensible circular nonsense and the technique seemed to be to lull people into a stupefied state where they just got tired of trying to understand what he was saying and either signed up for the program or walked out the door. Preying on the vulnerable and desperate I would have described it.
You can learn to meditate with other traditions without being taken to the cleaners and nobody tries to create false mystery. TM might work for some people but if you haven't tried it, don't bother and move on to Zen, Vipassana or whatever tickles your fancy.
is it any better than any other mantra based meditation?
When TM first came out to the world in the 1960’s the promise was if you practiced TM for 7 years you would attain Cosmic Consciousness. Anyone or anybody, the only requirement would be you must practice twice a day for 7 years. That should have been a red flag right there. Of course, it never happened and even loyal TM instructors who were with the movement over 20 years never attained it. I heard this from former TM instructors who had left the movement on the radio say as much. Another problem is; not everyone is cut out for TM. It happens to be a very powerful technique when performed correctly/religiously and if you’re not completely mentally stable you will not be able to control the attained results. When all the celebrities flocked to the Maharishi back in the sixties he was accused of sexual assault on one of the actresses and the Beatles, specifically confronted him about it. I heard John Lennon recall the incident in an interview and they promptly left the movement.
A very revealing interview which shows Mahesh as being other than what he claims to be. The Beetles had propelled him into fame and fortune, an obvious fact that caused him annoyance if not a deflated ego.
This channel should look into Sadhguru, he is a newer version of OSHO essentially.
i guess you mean Osho was newer version of MMY, and Sadhguru is a newer version of Osho
Sad guru is the latest money and power hungry elitist uncle claiming to be a great teacher.
That's the problem with all the gurus. It's unbelievable that people still believe that much in gurus and what they say. It's interesting what sadgurus says but he definitely is not my guru. I got the teachings of Buddha and I am my own teacher.
Have been doing TM for 44 years, TM Sidhis for 41 years. Quite happy with the results -- a happy and downright magical life.
Sam Farling, same here.
@@Chrisoula17 Is it necessary for the TM Foundation to own hotels & so much real estate?
Also, the effect dissipates as time passes.
Me too Sam. Been doing TM for 42 year and the Sidhis for 40 years.
Wow. that is a long time. I was in CIC-3 course. Amherst. Awesome. I was 18!! '
Hahaha. And you are flying now right and brought us world peace? Poor idiots.
Comoane B who is the idiot here you think..
OMG this is an eye opener! I attended an Introduction session yesterday. I always always listen to my Intuition and yesterday I had an uneasy feeling that I couldn't brush off. I never ignore my feelings and I know through those feelings the Universe is trying to tell me something... So today I've decided I won't be enrolling myself into the TM classes.
Its common sense, not universe telling you something.
Please listen to your inner voice. It never lies to you.
Doctor Strange can answer this
There are a lot of fake reviews glorifying TM. TM might actually be a good technique. But it's not magical in any way to require paying $1000 up front to learn. You can also feel awesome doing 30 minutes per day of full body gym workout, plus you will have a better body than people who do TM. But I guess most people are lazy, they want the bliss without the pain. Go ahead and pay $1000 sucker.
TM is the Scientology of Meditation.
Everything can become a scam if you make it into a THING to sell. Yes... Even sitting.
Maharishi can fly high above the clouds . In his private jet I mean .
The Beatles were involved with this clown for 5 minutes before they all bailed; George following through the most with eastern philosophy and becoming a lifelong Hare Krishna devotee. He made the correct decision. Haribol.
watch DAVID WANTS TO FLY
fab expose
good luck findin it
13 billion dollars tm is worth now
uber powerful
this is the funniest vidio I have even seen. The interviewer is very funny and cunning. I even laugh at his way of asking his question such as ""does he fly?" "has anyone seen anyone fly?" hahhaahahahhahahahahah............
agreed, his manner and attitude were perfect
Did the beatles hop around like frogs?
Maharishi came out with the TM flying technique years after the Beatles left.
I'm sure the beatles though highly of maharishi, the fact he doesn't seem to think much about them is suprising and sad
Damn it, David Lynch...you had me excited thinking TM was some amazing, life changing thing and I needed to research it. Seems to be bunk. Ah well.
T-Top Deluxe yeah bro. These people have to make a living. It’s bullshit. TM is basically sit down and repeat a mantra 20 mins twice a day. I’ll send you an invoice for $1500 😁
Yeah guys, David Leach brought me here also (and some videos on brain scans that sounded convincing). A shame. I’ll stick to a bit of mindfulness.
TM fucked my mind up for a month and I know people also got mentally sick from it..
It starts to become an addiction you can't stop doing it because it starts to become like a drug ask any person who has done TM for years they will always tell you that they never miss a day or they hardly miss a day on top of that I've heard some people say that they feel off if they don't meditate and sometimes they even feel on edge not all meditations do this but TM seems to be the only one I've heard these experiences about when I stopped doing TM I felt horrible I felt nausea disassociation anxiety and paranoid thoughts
This hopping looks ridiculous!😅
When was this program filmed?
Looks like 1990-s?
All cults seem to follow the same pattern: At the highest level, you are allegedly your own god. Great video. Thank you.
They don’t fly or levitate, they HOP in a seated Lotus position! Not impressed! He’s just a scam artist
What most folks don't know about the maharishi is he's a big real estate investor. According to the United Kingdom's Guardian newspaper, the maharishi's combined real-estate and business holdings total out at $3.6 billion. These days, the maharishi presides over a corporate empire Indian sources have estimated to be worth more than $5 billion -- a sort of Wal-Mart of the spirit, encompassing extensive land holdings in India, hotels in Europe, and publishing houses in the United States.
Master status is death and being a ghost perhaps it can be televised someone get Zak Bagans....
He was a money-hungry con artist.
Exactly
These things use people , it’s about mind control
OMG they look like frogs!😆 hopping that's the most ridiculous thing ive ever see. How does that achieve enlightenment. Absurd
Kathryn Erskine it looks like they need a cushion! Owww!!!😂😂😂
Master state is transcending space and time.
The interviewer is great
Right up there with Scientology.
Don't give money succerz
thank u for calling a spade a spade
No one can levitate
Ha ha immortal ? Maharishi is dead.
maharishi was bad person. disrespectful and bad mannered. he proved everything about himself by behaving this way.
Anyone into Ego will agree with her I am sure! Poor saps!
I saw this guy at the Edelsteins I think on Dick Cavett. I suspect now they wanted me there to see them laugh at him, not sure.
My tm can get maharishi all the pretty girls he wamts
Stone (the reporter) was too negative, but overall it was a good exposé.
Delectable old con man.
another fool is on rise...you well keep your eyes on SADH GURU ..who claims life has no meaning....has his own celebrity show.
Sag guru is actually quite good
This is Kālī Yuga time. Bad teachers scam artist
look at 2:39 exactly ... she is high on herself ... that is sick!
Robin is high on himself!
And o. c. Maharishi knows who
is in front of him and reacts accordingly
And what is wrong with being rich after liberating so many people.???
It shows that his motivations are materialistic, and it points to scamming people out of their money.
He liberated many people from their money, and nothing else.
