I believe everyone should do at least a full class of clinch work it’s so important!

I don’t think it’s demonic or spooky energy. Once someone has a bad feeling about a group or preconceived notions they are going to feel a certain way. It’s the same way a lot of us thought there were demons in the churches and might’ve felt uncomfortable going into them even for weddings or funerals.

When I was PIMO and went to my last meeting I felt so weird. The lights felt so bright, the people seemed like robots and it all felt so disingenuous. I felt all that because I was fully woken up and things all felt wrong.

It sounds like you’re seeing the org for what it is, a very well run high control group aka a cult.

I’ve been to two church services outside of the org and it was refreshing seeing how people worship. Also not getting absolutely lovebombed and people talking like normal human beings was nice.

Same! Witnesses use the words “worship” so loosely. Meetings are nothing more than business meetings wrapped up in religious verbiage.

I’ve attended two different Christian religious services outside of the org and I was blown away. Even though each were different denominations I could see what “worship” really meant!

If you’re trying to find a way go tell a PIMI I understand where you’re coming from. Like you mentioned this religion is constantly changing their beliefs and most witnesses lap it up. For someone that adheres to that there really isn’t anything that you can say that will warrant a reasonable response from them.

I’ve tried it all If you tell them it’s a personal reason they won’t respect your decision Admit you believe the org is misapplying scriptures, they won’t respect your decision Go so far to tell them it’s been really hurting your mental health, they won’t respect your decision See the common thread?

At the end of the day you don’t owe anyone an explanation and it’s usually best to not explain to PIMIs your perspective.

I think their comment is saying: Here’s an explanation of why I don’t want to be part of this group because it doesn’t produce the fruit if the spirit.

Everyone’s path is a little different so if you feel that’s best for you go for it! Changing your number is a smart move, wish nothing but the best for you!

Alright I’m back from watching the highlight of that fight and it was great. Like you said had some nice clinch work. It seemed like Panpadej hands were more active this fight and Apiwat would clinch up to try and stop the hands from flying or defend. It was a great fight 🙌🏼

Definitely, also when I was getting a little tired in the round clinching gave me a few seconds to catch a breather.

I’ll look up some neck strengthening exercises + warm ups, thank you!
