"He (Krishnamurti) said he did not want to belong to any organization of a spiritual kind, because such an organization becomes a weakness, a bondage, and cripples the individual. He said that he did not want any followers or disciples, because the moment you follow someone you cease to follow Truth. He said that no one holds the key to Truth, that key is your own self, and in the purification and incorruptibility of that self alone."---Asit Chandmal (one Thousand Suns)

"When a group of people share a belief, they naturally bond with each other.  Any new recruit is warmly welcomed.  He strengthens the group and renews their confidence in the shared convictions."-----Secret, Don't Tell: The Encyclopedia of Hypnotism by Carla Emery p.239
