Note: the complete absence of: frills, advertising of “circuit speakers” (from the US or anywhere else for that matter), gimmicks, “come ons”, promises of “instant ecstasy” (fourth dimensional or otherwise!), sponsorship (temporary or otherwise) and the fact that admission is actually FREE ie. this event is self supporting through the voluntary contributions of its members in accordance with Tradition 7.
Now compare and contrast the above with your average cult promotion!
Quote: "Frothy emotional appeal seldom suffices. The message which can interest and hold these alcoholic people must have depth and weight. In nearly all cases, their ideals must be grounded in a power greater than themselves, if they are to re-create their lives."
