Staring routines turning people into lizards...

This is a great documentary on scientology, but I found it rather odd at about 9.30 into the video.

There is a reconstruction of a 'training exercise' where two participants have to stare at each other for an hour. The woman said that she started hallucinating and seeing her partner shapeshift and grow scales like a lizard.

Any relevance here? Anybody ever tried it?

I have never experienced hallucinations from staring from people. However, I want to thank you for posting this video as it contained some interesting things that go on inside the cult. My intuitions have always steered me away from them and this video just reinforced them.

I've done something similar by staring into a mirror - I turned into a werewolf! :)

I have a copy of this documentary on my hard drive. I too found the 'lizard' comments intriguing! I've never tried the exercise...

Lol! Yeah, there was more to it than that, honest! Does sound a bit weird when put so bluntly! :p

yeah,yeah,yeah.... hehe:D

sounds like something i've experienced, but only while high as a m*therf*cker, hence my assumption...

sounds like a very bizarre experience if there were no alkaloids involved.:confused

when my salvia / henbane concoction turned me into a dog (who could fly) for a night, it all seemed so clear...

haven't done anything like that in years, makes me wonder if natural psychoactives could be more important than i previously thought...?

werewolf, you say?:eek:
