A 15-year-old girl signed a "1 billion year sale contract"! Sexually assaulted, abused, forced to marry strangers...

"The stars come here a lot, they go diving, they have their own fancy rooms, restaurants, and their own waiters and chefs. But those of us who had neither food nor sleep, sometimes even fainted on deck and slept in a bilge full of garbage. ”

--Ramana

An Australian woman named Ramana recounts her decade of hellish life in the "Scientology.".

Scientology, also known as Scientology, was founded in 1952 by American Ron Hubbard (1911-1984).

The "Scientology" prides itself on advocating the concept of an ancient interstellar civilization, arguing that millions of interstellar creatures were destroyed and then possessed by humans. They encroach on the human body all the time and inflict trauma on human beings. Based on this, the "Scientology Sect" claims that its purpose is to help every believer "restore himself."

If believers want to regain a clear understanding of their past suffering, they need a ritual created by the "science school" - "listening and analysis". Only by making a certain amount of contributions can the teaching materials and courses of "listening" be obtained. Hubbard became a household name "religious guru" by constantly exaggerating the role of "auditory." He also "developed" something called the E-meter to aid in "auditing," which sold for $5,000 in the last century. According to himself, this meter can be used to detect the changing state of mind of the "auditor".

The "Scientology Sect" claims that there is something even more magical about this Psychic Meter: as long as it is disrespectful to the founder Hubbard, or has negative thoughts about the sect, the Psychic Meter will find out and drive it out.

The Scientology also promotes a drug rehabilitation program called Narconon. The "Scientology" believes that "Nakonna" is a kind of "detoxification therapy", through swallowing cooking oil, sauna, running, non-stop taking vitamins, etc., you can excrete the toxins in the body, obtain new energy, and even quit drugs and alcohol. In 2019, a young man named John Cunningham participated in the program. Seven days later, John died in the base of the "Scientology".

In addition to this, the Scientology Sect also has a core organization called the Ocean Agency, where Ramana was trapped for a full decade. Every staff member of the marine agency signs a 1 billion-year contract and vows to dedicate himself to the "Scientology" for the rest of his life. In addition, the church does not allow staff to leave easily, and strictly censor family visits, Internet access, emails, etc.

Ramana's mother was a "Scientology" believer. Influenced by this, Ramana grew up seeing Hubbard as Jesus and writing to him; whatever the "Scientology" said was the truth. The ignorant Ramana thought it was cool. From the age of 7, Ramana began taking "Scientology" classes, some of which talked about sexual experiences.

At the age of 15, Ramana joined the Marine Agency.

Ramana was detached from her daily life and began to feel very excited. She spent hours in the office of the ship's recruiter, reading all the information about the maritime agency as required, such as why it is so important, and how the world is in crisis, how individuals can save it, and so on. "Eventually they told me to sign a billion-year contract — that's ridiculous."

The absurdity doesn't stop there. One crew member even told Lamana that she had to get married on board before she turned 16.

15-year-old Lamana was unusually panicked, but she had no choice. Her father, who was not a Scientologist, thought Ramana had joined a Greenpeace group, and he had signed the document. According to the document signed by her parents, her custody was given to the "Scientology." Another "Scientology" couple on board became Lamana's legal guardians, becoming her new mom and dad.

Two months later, Ramana boarded the ship. There was a so-called "security check" on board: a man around 45 kept asking Ramana about her sexual experiences, 15 hours a day, for several days.

Boats travel between the Caribbean, the Bahamas and Mexico. Lamana was told that since they were now traveling in international waters, it meant that everything that happened on board did not apply to the laws of any country. But the "Scientology" argues that the boat travels here because it can be far away from the hustle and bustle of the world and let people seriously study the teachings.

A member of the Ocean Group quickly reached out to Ramana. The member works in the VIP lounge of the bar and is able to get acquainted with the chairman of the board and many celebrities, so he is favored by the "scientology". A few months later, Ramana, who had just turned 16, was forced to have a relationship with her.

Soon, Ramana married in the VIP lounge where he worked, where they had barely known each other before. "In ocean organizations, this is very common." She was even punished for not "pleasing" him during sex.

Like many of the ship's employees, Ramana wakes up at 8 a.m., starts working at 8:30 p.m., is not allowed to take a vacation, and even spends three hours doing laundry by hand on her days off.

Sometimes, Ramana was allowed to move on deck, but she was not at all interested in the beauty around her—whether it was the crystal clear waters, the luxury yachts, or the bands playing in the distance—she felt nothing but a slave. She had also thought about escaping—Ramana stole her passport and told the duty officer that the captain had sent her down on an emergency mission, only to be caught just two steps away.

Ramana, who attempted to escape, was punished for working in the cabin, covered in oil stains that had to be washed off with diesel. This lingering smell on your body is a sign of shame – others know you are being punished.

The ship's labyrinthine pipes were rusty, and Ramana's daily task was to climb into the pipes to remove rust and paint them with new paint. She works 11 hours a day, only 20 minutes for lunch and dinner, and spends 5 hours studying the teachings.

After several failed escapes, Ramana finally couldn't bear it. In her fifth year on board, she threatened to commit suicide with a knife, "I felt like I was squatting in jail and sentenced to life in prison." I think it's better to start over, after all, there is still reincarnation."

Eventually, Ramana was deemed a safety risk because she was suicidal, and the Scientology allowed her to disembark. But they didn't allow her to leave the school and forced her to sell about $50,000 a week in classes, making more money a week than she did last week.

In her tenth year of joining the "Scientology Sect", after Ramana's repeated applications, she was finally able to leave. She struggled to get back to normal life, but her mental state had been bad — depressed, self-harming. "I came back into the world but felt like an outsider. I have no experience with how to build friendships, and what does 'family' mean? I even lost my mother! ”

Ramana who was allowed to disembark

Unfortunately, Ramana's story is not unique. On December 21, 2021, another woman named Valesca stepped forward, who had also been abused for 12 years on the Marine Agency's cruise ship, in the same way as Ramana. Even more tragically, Valleska's stepfather was cheated out of millions of dollars by the "Scientology", and he chose to commit suicide with nothing.

The maritime apparatus is but one of the evils committed by the "Scientology", which itself is notorious worldwide. It is considered an "anti-constitutional religion" in Germany and a cult in France and Chile. I hope that more and more people, like Lamana and Valesca, will recognize the true face of the "Scientology Sect" at an early date and escape from the clutches of the cult at an early date.
