Clinical psychologist DR MICHELLE HASLAM talks to MARK from Talk Beliefs about her 18 months within the New Kadampa Tradition sect. This Buddhism offshoot promises mindfulness and well being, but in actuality focuses on the mysterious guru at the head of the group, Kelsang Gyatso.
Michelle talks about living among the monks, experiencing 'spiritual bypassing', and eventually leaving after realizing that this form of buddhism - welcomed by so many mental health professionals - was little more than a hypnotic cult...
