When you get in to yoga class, you find yourself in a trap. More than 20 people experienced the Dahn Yoga and had the same grievance regarding manipulative brain washing of the participants. The aggrieved participants are suing Dahn Yoga which is alleged to target immature college students. It comprises a network of 12 centers in Chicago, Illinois. This cult is alleged to make huge money by misleading and overpowering the wills of raw minds.
Emily Shipley, a Dahn Yoga student, is of the view that the yoga experience was initially good but afterwards one gets trapped. The cult is blamed to use deceptive techniques by taking over member’s will and uses the aspired values of “humanitarianism”, “peace”, “individual healing”, and “thought purification” as a tool and self-mortifying exercises of sleeplessness and exhaustive physical exertion. They drive the participants towards bizarre physical and mental exercises which actually have no sense but the zealous participants take it as something really purifying their souls. They are the victims of psychological take-over which leaves the members confused with mental and physical fatigue.
The “money training” is another tool to psychologically exhort money by winning over the wills of the participants. Shipley, a member, was encouraged to give money to group and she gave away $47,000 from different personal resources as part of the training. The 24 ex-members have brought law suit against Lee, the leader of yoga organization, on the charges of fraud, exhorting, sexual harassment by winning over minds. The other people supported his acts just because their minds and wills were won-over.
