Finding Comfort and Purpose in Cults and Religion

People in cults and religious groups find comfort and purpose by getting locked into a shared frequency of thinking, similar to the feeling at concerts. Cult leaders create an altered state of consciousness akin to hypnotism, making followers feel belonging and purpose. Despite different beliefs in various religions, the common factor is that belief aids in happiness, providing individuals with a sense of purpose and preventing feelings of being lost. The sense of community and shared frequency in cults and religion offers comfort and positivity, even though it may involve believing in what seems like 'stupid shit.' Understanding how cults achieve this sense of community and belonging is intriguing, as it reveals the power of group cohesion in shaping beliefs and emotions.
