Guest post: The Academy for Psychic Studies, An Evil Turd That Goes On and On

Over 1200 Pageviews and counting for this post.  I think our Anonymous author hit the Mother Lode!

Here's an idea for a great holiday card
for the Witches of Ellsworth Street.

I am happy to announce we have our second Guest Post from an author named "Anonymous".

I think there is no mistake: this guy hates Bill Duby and the Witches of Ellsworth. That is good. Those people did much to ruin lives, create havoc - even drive people to think of, attempt or carry out suicide. Does anyone else hate them? Oh, nearly everyone who had to deal with them, you say? Oh, nearly everyone they took money from, I hear? Didn't Bill's dog like him? Oh, it bit him and humped his leg?

0 for 3 Bill, Angela, and Robin. Not so good.

While I have had my run-in's with those people, others have had more than that. Humiliation in front of as many of your peers, students, superiors and children as could be assembled was commonplace at the Academy for Psychic Studies. Anyone who believes there are no public floggings in America hasn't had an opportunity to see the Academy for Psychic Studies in action.

In private, more intense humiliation, the utter annihilation of your self-worth, your sense of self and humanity was stripped away in the most degrading, abusive and sometimes violent manner. That treatment was reserved for the spiritual elite of the Academy for Psychic Studies/Spiritual Rights Foundation - which I guess would be everyone, now that I think of it.

Historically, the holidays is the time for SRF to cement their grip on their flock by keeping them busy with classes and special workshops that create a pliant and suggestible state in their victims, allowing for the insertion of any kind of mental image or thought that would keep the congregants away from their natural families and deeper into the dysfunctional drain clog that is the Spiritual Rights Foundation "spiritual family".

This spiritual family seemed like "The Addams Family" to the outside world. Behind closed doors SRF was more like "The Manson Family" .

When the leaders levied humiliating criticism at you and encouraged their followers to join in and dog pile you, you were expected to accept the degradation with aplomb. But, those who dared say a word in their defense got even more attacks, more humiliation and even "special" one-on-one attention consisting of hours of being cursed at, yelled at, threatened with all manner of retaliation: loss of privilege, loss of marriage, loss of children and interrogated with any technique short of waterboarding.

Hell, if they knew about it, they probably would waterboard you. Instead, Bill Duby beat his book "Cosmic Acid" into the heads of his spiritual family, just as Charles Manson forced LSD down the throats of his, uh, whatever family.

The Spiritual Rights Foundation "Holiday Prosperity Workshops" may take place during the holidays but they certainly don't spread any cheer among the faithful. In fact, if you stood under the mistletoe, you would be just as likely to get slapped in the face as kissed on the cheek. Well, that was my experience, at least (but I admit I managed to piss off most of the gals; most of the men, too). I guess that's why the mistletoe kept disappearing...

I'll tell you this much: my last few Christmas Seasons without the Cult of the Spiritual Rights Foundation have been the happiest I have had since my childhood, filled with friends, family and good cheer (and that good cheer will have to be liposuctioned).

I just have one more interesting tidbit before I present our guest post: My wife and I took a little trip to the Napa Valley. We stopped at the Culinary Institute of America (CIA) at Greystone for dinner - and what a dinner! A selection of wonderful amuse-bouche to start, an amazing entree finished with the most fabulous creme brulee I have ever had. While dining, I mentioned that about 15 years ago, I was looking at attending culinary school either at CIA Greystone or at CCA in San Francisco (California Culinary Academy), spoke briefly about the characteristics of each school then added that in the end, I did not attend either.

My wife asked why I didn't go.

I replied, "Because I joined a cult."

We enjoyed the meal anyway and basked in the glory of having the freedom to enjoy our life together as a couple without interference or disruption and did the usual disgusting newlywed stuff that makes other diners say: "eeeeewwwww!"

At any rate, you have my best wishes for a Happy and Healthy New Year!

Our Guest Post from "Anonymous":
=============================================

SPIRITUAL RIGHTS FOUNDATION IS AN EVIL PLACE TO VISIT

FOR THE HOLIDAYS. HELL… ANYTIME!

The holiday season SRF style: Get pressured to take numerous classes to "prosper us"...I mean them (William Duby, Angela Silva and Robin DuMolin).

If you didn't you got verbally abused and treated as a leper by them and the rest of the staff and students, you would notice the spotlight of negativity put upon you by them.

They would often laugh at your expense, when Bill Duby (and later Angela Silva) would go after you in one of his ranting bullshit sessions. The reality was, he didn't teach as much as he channeled energy. This would often last for hours and bore the shit out of me, (you wonder why I wanted to stay out of those classes) and I was so disgusted at the outrageous verbal abuse he bestowed...I mean spewed out on others.

Bill Duby was one of the biggest assholes I ever met in my life. He tried to make up for it by attempting to do something nice occasionally for you. Most of the times it was a gesture of little value, since most of the time he shredded our personalities, likes and dislikes, as a personal vendetta while being in his presence.

We were often told he was talking to your body personality and as spirit, you need to laugh and recognize you aren't the body. Well, when we would do anything to defend, resist, hell, even in a slight teasing manner, he and his big ass ego/ body personality would turn beet red and his eyes would be menacing, and would go after you.

He claims he was cleaning out those challenging spirits from hell that was an affront to him, his family and church members. He often said he wanted no part of being someone's/anyone's guru. Yet, he would tear you down for making mistakes, tell you what he would have done if he was us, diminish any accomplishments that took away from him being in the spotlight!

Bill Duby was a bastard to deal with, because when you tried talking to him in private with others, or one on one, he would always pretend to be compassionate or empathetic, not sympathetic to a problem or situation and turn it into a teaching situation that embarrassed you for asking or even inquiring only later on with more people around to use you as that night's class, or topic of discussion.

When you kept to yourself, he would often project things that were not going on in your head or thinking, and make an example of you to the point where you would feel incredibly worse then when you spoke to him or entering into the Ellsworth street building or set foot on the Blue Sky Ranch in Bethel Island, CA.

He would often bring people in from the rest of the congregation and have them parrot the same thing, as he would often give signals in his gestures that this would be the lead for others to follow and often give permission to insult you.

They would get mad at you, as you would be "invalidating their reading abilities". Often was the case, the woman were made to feel incredibly insecure and emotional, and the men were "plexed" (meaning too wound up with emotion to think straight - ed.) and harboring such unresolved anger situations, that when they festered, it would be brought up yet again for others to slay you in spirit. THIS WAS THE SRF WAY!

I have heard in the last year that others who stood by and watched others leave, have now left themselves. Some of them recognize the abuse and just want to move on with their lives and separate themselves from the madness they experienced and were a part of, while others are venting as a way to not only get out this un-washable feeling of mind fucking that went on, and are trying to dislodge that feeling from the body, much like a build up of constipation in the body.

We have taken some spiritual Metamucil and unloading the crap we took, have gift wrapped it back to them as a continuous tithe and offering. I HAVE MANY TITHES AND OFFERINGS LEFT TO GIVE TO SRF AND THE WITCHES OF ELLSWORTH STREET IN MY BOWELS.

Others, who've recently left are content of going on there merry way in life, NOTHING WRONG! NOTHING TO SEE AND PROCESS. Wait until you start having flashbacks of the worst parts and don't feel the need to process it yet. Like all of us, it will come up and out like the vile we deposited as poison to our souls. Its those uncomfortable feelings and humiliation of your life for the public to see and laugh at your expense, or as your fragile psyche as the punchline of a joke which you were not soliciting, but hammered upon your psyche.

Not everyone has a way of dealing with stress and post-traumatic stress disorder, but heck, take your time to decompress and unload. I left infuriated, your departure may have been different than mine.

Hopefully, you can understand why others all have left in the last few years, and recognize there are those who can't and are trapped, and there are those continually making batches of kool-aid everyday to medicate themselves and others with.

Those who've already left are attempting to scrub the soiled places of their body, mind and soul, which like the scratch under the surface of the skin you can't get to as of yet. This irritation causes more uncomfortable unresolved feelings to resurface.

Here is a wake up call for those who found no fault with SRF and yet left unfulfilled:

First: If it was so blissful there, why aren't you still there?

Secondly.....It will happen.

Until then, if you're still praising the tunes and way of life that you were kept under the thumb of Bill Duby, Angela Silva and Robin DuMolin, we will not validate this thinking, because the first step in getting on with your life post SRF is to see it for what it is .

If this means posting or not posting something on this blog so be it.

Do I hear another mock-up calendar for 2010 being made up for the last few people affiliated with the place by the team of Angela Silva and Robin DuMolin?

Here's a thought: Try reinventing themselves and this place!

Sell off the buildings, pay what you owe to Mike and Joy....

Pay yourself 10% each of the proceeds and then distribute the rest to those who gave of service the longest and downwards from there.

Finally, make a public apology like the Catholic Church and acknowledge your abuses!

Make the Spiritual Rights Foundation like used toilet paper, a thing you flush down after wiping your behind with and think of it as the Supreme Flush of 2010!

TIthe 10% of your final cut to a cult recovery center of your choice. Actually show some humility not to mention humanity.

MOVE OUT OF THE AREA AND DON'T EVER TEACH AGAIN! IF YOU DO, WE WILL FIND YOU AND EXPOSE YOU ONCE AGAIN UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!


==========================================


I would suggest the Witches of Ellsworth atone for their sins by giving that 10% cut to the Wellspring Retreat in Ohio or the Meadow Haven recovery center in Lakeville, MA.

Wait a minute, did I just inform them to tithe? Well, then the Witches of Ellsworth need to pay it to ME! I'll give it to Wellspring AND Meadow Haven. Why not give? You have to give to live. It's tax deductible anyway. I'll give a tax receipt for it.

And the money tithed will open the windows of heaven now and in the afterlife to create future abundant flow and room in your storehouse to receive His blessings.

I also have a bridge for sale.
