    Funny you should mention the Landmark Forum.

    My sister went to a 3 day session - inviting me on the last session date. This is common practice at Landmark Forums. An attendee registers for a 3 day session, then on the 2nd day, the moderators ask the attendents to invite someone they know who may benefit from the program. My sister invited me. I attended her 3rd day and, subsequently, signed up for a 3 day session of my own.

    I went to the session. But, I found myself not impressed. I can't say if it resembles
    the Church of Scientology in it's methods since I've never been to a CoS meeting. But, I decided against attending the 2nd and 3rd days.

    After not attending the 2nd session I received a telephone call from the Landmark Forum asking why I hadn't attended on the 2nd day. I told them my reason - which was I didn't feel it addressed anything that was of substantial importance to me. Then, they called my sister who then called me and asked me the same question. I told her the same answer as I told them.

    Soon thereafter, she came to the same conclusion that I did; that the Landmark Forums are no better than other methods of figuring out what it is you want out of life and your interpersonal relationships with others.

    Kind regards,
    Casey
