I too was at a
loss to explain how these individuals, who
attended my seminars at different times, had
come to join together in an orchestrated
effort to discredit me.
Rama begins the "Kidnapping Of Jennifer Jacobs" section of the
"Statement" with:
It wasn't until I encountered Jennifer Jacobs,
a woman who at one time attended some of my
classes, that I understood why I had become
the target...
Anne said, "At *one time* attended *some* of my classes? She was in
the inner circle. She worked for him. She was one of the nineteen
'witches.' He recommended where she should live, and gave her other
personal advice... "
Rama writes:
Jennifer's mind was violated in a variety of
horrible ways. She was kept awake for extended
hours and forced repeatedly to view videos of
Charles Manson... Jennifer was screamed at, ridiculed
and degraded. She was constantly surrounded by
guards and was never allowed to leave the motel...
Jennifer was told that she would not be released
until she gave up her beliefs in the Buddhist
faith... her kidnappers also threatened that
if she went to the police they would kidnap her
again and that her family would have her
committed to a mental institution for the
rest of her life.
Jennifer Jacob's parents maintain that their daughter was not screamed
at, ridiculed, or degraded. Although neither Anne nor I knew what had
actually taken place with Jennifer, Anne recalled too well some of
Rama's methods: "Our minds [during nightmare weekend in Seattle] were
violated in a variety of horrible ways. Rama kept us awake all night.
We did not see Charles Manson videos. We got to see Rama strangling
his puppy instead. Rama repeatedly berated us. He claimed we were
reincarnated demons and were out to get him. He did not hold us
prisoners, but then again, I would not advise running off into the
night on five hits of acid. Rama said we could 'come clean' if we,
like Barbara, confessed that we were trying to destroy his mission. He
threatened that he would send us to hell for thousands of lifetimes... "
Rama claims:
Cult Awareness Network and persons associated with
it are participating in the very practices that
they purport to be dead set against.
