The crisis of the expansion of cults as a universal dilemma is an issue which will make managing of world future busy with it very powerfully.
Cults are consisting of a rainbow of attitudes in political, social and personal issues which are increasing the dimensions of the deviations resulted by it.
The future seditions of Iran and the world are gnostic sectarianisms or it is better to say semi- gnostic. Nobody and no country is safe against cults and semi- gnostic cult playing and the first victims are usually the makers and communities out of which the cult is emerging.
Although cult making has preached more from the western countries towards the eastern ones with the last 300 years, but this trend involves these communities politically, socially and morally. The following are a collection of damages which challenge societies:
1) Superstition and the tendency towards misgiving viewpoints:
To create favorable viewpoints among the disciples and devoted people, the semi-gnostic cults have to make mental topics for their followers through which people commission the head and the cult maker. For this reason, the superstitious viewpoints have tremendously increased and have changed into beliefs with the passage of time.
To explain this issue, various examples have pointed out in history; for example, in Persian literature, the influence of such tendencies towards superstitions is clearly observable. The imaginative explanations about those who pass over winds, clouds, waters and seas by Attar Neyshabouri are examples of this misgiving viewpoint.
Believing in strange and extraordinary creatures that aren’t divine and religious are (necessarily) included in this semantic system.
The disciples’ minds ask what the head, master and the maker of cult asks and nothing else can rescue the person’s mind which has been developed by superstitions from a mass of misgiving imaginations.
He/she has seen everything in flight and believed that those he/she knows are in a place beyond the mind and other people are unable to recognize them. He/she thinks this is the weakness of those who don’t believe in these false beliefs not his/her weakness.
2) Confronting against science:
Most of those who found semi-gnostic and cognitive cults are in lack of sever in lack of scientific and academic educations and also intellectual and logical principles.
Of course, some of these people spend much time studying various scientific works, but what is important is that they don’t achieve scientific viewpoint due to beneficial and special approach paying attention in their studying searches.
These people are searching for strange sciences such as arithmomancy or the science of numbers, astrolabe, sand, the conquered and etc. in ancient waves and now they are studying topics like the psychology of human being, medicine and etc. They are more interested in topics and techniques like legerdemain and what is done by Indian yogis. As a matter of fact, the new generation has set the difficulty of training strange sciences aside and is finding techniques through which magnetic dreams can be reconstructed for disciples to keep mind narcotized and away from the world. Most people are doing such actions due to personal problems caused by job congestion, mental tension densities and the physical ones.
3) Provoking mental crises:
Most cults have been formed for sexual motives and hedonism and there are numerous documents in each corner of history. For this reason, women are involving in the main parts of the followers.
The cult makers are experiencing the method of having relationships with ladies for years because cults are intrinsically formed for the pleasure seeking of the head.
In the Iranian Sufism a lot of cases of sexual pleasure seeking of the cult leader can be pointed out. Kabbalah was first led towards worshipping pleasure, and women, and creation of obscene sexual rituals and people like Osho founded a sexual city in America as one of the newest cults.
Nowadays, Collegiate in America accepts gnostic students and those who are interested in achieving discovery and intuition naked and bare in classes of college
In most cults, it has been continually seen that men who make cults are touching women and are sexually abusing them using various excuses.
4) Confronting against rationality:
The Semi-gnostic cults are intrinsically claiming for taking human being step beyond wisdom and thought of human being. According to the claim by one of the makers of these groups, they are going to take human being sit on steps higher than wisdom called love.
This issue is real; so that, experience has proved that in cult the disciples fall in love with the masters, founders or the head of the cult and then they do what he / she wants.
When he/she asks for death, people will accept to suicide like cults in India, China and Japan to show their personal attachment and infatuation towards the head of the cult.
However, it should be paid attention that the person is not interested in reality. He/she is interested in the person who is claiming for having all divine secrets and all great divine mysteries which nobody knows but him/her.
Referring to history of cultism, we will figure out that intellectuality and learning sciences have been repeatedly and specifically campaigned and most cult makers have been uneducated.
These people have introduced science as a destructive event and have severely prevented their followers to turn to scientific discussions in each field.
Even, one of the conditions for exaltation in cults is setting education or studies aside.
5) Preventing the process of the development of communities:
These semi-spiritual movements prevent communities to develop economically, social, politically and culturally.
Regarding this issue that the most important pillar is development and growth of all communities is its humane foundation, the cults destroy the human forces influencing on human force and changing the humane community into a gathering of indisposed, lazy, misgiving, sinful, motiveless, dependent and mental people.
Countries spend a huge amount of money each year to manage these groups which causes the opportunities for the development of a country to be wasted.
The final strategy to confront against cults is the common international awareness to confront the Satanic thought. That is, the followers of various religions must figure out that the axis and executor of all deviant cults is the Satanic movement which has propelled from the divine court. To confront against this sinful attitude an extensive international approach must be formed.
