many are musicians and there is a great live music scene here in austin.

they have become very powerfull here in austin.
cides cthey have infiltrated the government. and also social services.

there have been some murders but mostly it is the suicides. since the 1970's. we have had about 2,000 suicides among the creative communities

the FBI has been involved since 1990 and there is a huge FBI investigation going on around Mahraji and his followers

Many of them are being audited by the IRS and I think the government is going to use RICCO.

I never joined them although there was incredible pressure on me to join. They ruined my life and reputation. But at least i am alive . and they ripped off my work and ideas as revenge. many of them have profitted from my master's thesis "impact of the music entertainment industry on austin, Texas" 1983. I CAME CLOSE TO ENDING up homeless. they ruined my reputation

i don't believe the problem is just the Divine Light Mission. there are many groups here similar to DLM.

either there are thousands of DLM devotees here in austin or there are a lot of groups like DLM.

Mahraji was brought to the university of texas about 1986. I did go but i walked out on him after about 15 minutes. and my then friends who were also devotees were no longer friends.

about 2,000 people attended and they were all ga-ga over him.
