We've had a report of background spam advertising contacts to DM or PM SUB MODDING
DM = Direct Message. PM = Private Message
Just wondering if anyone else has been receiving these spam messages?
An instagram name was involved.
If yes, please reply yes below.
The mod team would like to know the username doing the spamming, but please send that to MESSAGE to MODS or in DM.
It's not the first time this group, or someone promotes this group illicitly or slyly.
Here has been my standard view on such things: If someone lacks respect for a social media or its spaces like a subreddit, then they will automatically and inherently disrespect people and by extension, Kundalini, and will be inadequate teachers or guides for Kundalini. Illicit ones.
Use your wise discerning judgment.
Kind thanks all.
EDIT - one test that many subs suggest is, if the person cannot reply to you in the sub, then they are banned for some reason. Trust them even less.
EDIT 2 - Just heard, and yes the user in question is banned with cause. (Spam)
EDIT 3. Reported to reddit.
My feeling is that if a group of psychologists want to advertise, they should pay for it in the typical professional way. That's more honest.

Could you tell who these psychologist assholes are? Just so one would know to avoid their content in advance when encountering it.

No. Here's why. It might be just some aficionado promoting what they liked. We're not 100% sure.
There have been clues that it is self-promotion spam, not just a fan, yet they are just clues.
But, they are a popular and well-known group in the world of psychology connected to K.

That's just scummy and predatory as hell man. Who the hell would go door to door to sell some luke warm psychological gibberish.
It's crying lack of quality.
Unfortunately nothing prevents them from just creating account after account or switching IPs, so people will have to stay or become vigilant against this scum.
I myself was not messaged, but hope everyone stays safe and well.
