The cult does not create the hunger. It finds it. And then it offers, with staggering confidence, a complete answer to every question the seeker has ever asked. To study the cult in earnest is not to study a remote pathology. It is to study what we are — the longing, the loneliness, and the extraordinary lengths the human mind will go to feel, finally, at home. This is a six-part inquiry into the surrendered mind. It begins with the seeker. It ends, perhaps, with you.
