I would think any sane person would not want a google hit of being associated with Prem Rawat. That's the worst part. But I agree too, the comments on aging and misery minstrel are not needed and I can see why she felt it was offensive.  I don't want to be LIKE this damn cult and be shaming her in any way at all for struggling with anxiety and depression. I truly think it's admirable that she wrote a book about it.  Our former cult leader has a real history of stigmatizing mental illness and recall that having a history of emotional problems was a contraindication to receiving knowledge?

It isn't just our cult where one function of the cult is the built in networking and marketing the group provides. For people that the network supports their business; it would be a downside to publicly criticizing the cult. That shouldn't keep people from calling out the sorts of horrible things we know about, but it may be a factor for some.

I feel we don't know Kim or what she feels about the cult now. That premies follow her music doesn't mean much. I feel like she is very possibly a sincere exploited person like most of us were. I am interested what she knows that she got a "payout" from the minions. 

I am the same person who was dead wrong on Marolyn too so there is that. But I think I would rather give people the benefit of the doubt. I don't see a lot about Kim that makes me think she isn't just one of the sincere and exploited former followers of Prem Rawat.
