Beneath its promises of purpose and belonging lies a system of arranged marriages, micromanaged relationships, and blurred lines between spiritual guidance and authoritarian control. Some members found connection and meaning within its walls. Others walked away carrying scars of manipulation, isolation, and trauma.
