Story
In 2011, Catherine joined her daughter, India, at a leadership seminar for a new organization called NXIVM. Her 20-year-old daughter was on the threshold of building a new company, and they both thought this program might help her achieve her dream. But quickly, Catherine saw a sinister side to what appeared to be a self-help organization designed to help its clients become the best versions of themselves. Catherine watched in horror as her daughter fell further and further down the rabbit hole, becoming brainwashed by the organization’s charismatic leader.

Story
Since September 11, 2001, the Western world has been preoccupied with Islam and its role in terrorism. Yet, public debate about the faith is polarized. One camp praises "the religion of peace", while the other claims all Muslims are terrorists. Canadian human rights activist Yasmine Mohammed believes both sides are dangerously wrong. In Unveiled: How Western Liberals Empower Radical Islam, Yasmine speaks her truth as a woman born in the Western world yet raised in a fundamentalist Islamic home. Despite being a first-generation Canadian, she never felt at home in the West.

Publisher's summary
Still Learning is India Oxenberg’s intimate, first-person account of how she was lured into and, seven years later, escaped from the NXIVM cult, DOS.
As the secret sorority within NXIVM's vast Ponzi network, DOS was created by Keith Raniere and his acolytes to serve as a source of "slaves" to Keith and the other “masters”. Despite the fantastical headlines, the focus of Still Learning reflects what many parents and age peers of India’s will recognize as a far more familiar 20-something conundrum - a new adult trying to discover who she is, and in the process second-guessing the advice of parents, concerned siblings, and close friends who prove to be all too right - about a romantic partner, a sharp turn off of a hard-won educational track, or a dangerous group like NXIVM. India’s is a surprisingly relatable “adulting” tale set amidst one of the most alarming news stories of the day, rich with data on warning signs that distinguish exploration from exploitation.
This is much more than a survival story; it's a deeply personal reflection on how to come out (or help a loved one come out) the other side intact, still hopeful, and remarkably adult.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

The book of Enoch was thought to be lost for over 2,000 years until, in 1773, a traveller brought three copies back from Ethiopia. Whether or not this ancient book was actually authored by Enoch, the father of Methuselah and great-grandfather of Noah, is an ongoing debate among historians and theologians. But all recognise the book of Enoch as one of the most important apocalyptic works outside of the Bible.

Rachel Hollis has seen it too often: women not living into their full potential.

In Girl, Stop Apologizing, number-one New York Times best-selling author and founder of a multimillion-dollar media company, Rachel Hollis sounds a wake-up call.

Story
Turning the other cheek does not mean standing by while the enemies of God dismantle Christian civilization and brainwash our children. Decrying the cowardice that masquerades as meekness, Eric Metaxas summons the Church to battle. An attenuated and unbiblical “faith” based on what Bonhoeffer called “cheap grace” has sapped the spiritual vitality of millions of Americans. Paying lip service to an insipid “evangelism,” they shrink from combating the evils of our time. Metaxas refutes the pernicious lie that fighting evil politicizes Christianity.

The Qur'an, believed by Muslims to be the word of God, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad 1,400 years ago. It is the supreme authority in Islam and the living source of all Islamic teaching; it is a sacred text and a book of guidance that sets out the creed, rituals, ethics, and laws of the Islamic religion. It has been one of the most influential books in the history of literature. Recognized as the greatest literary masterpiece in Arabic, it has nevertheless remained difficult to understand in its English translations.

Thich Nhat Hanh acknowledges that because suffering can feel so bad, we try to run away from it or cover it up by consuming. We find something to eat or turn on the television. But unless we’re able to face our suffering, we can’t be present and available to life, and happiness will continue to elude us.

Cults prey on the very attributes that make us human: our desire to belong, to find a deeper meaning in life, to live everyday with divine purpose. Their existence creates a sense that any one of us, at any time, could step off the cliff’s edge and fall into that daunting abyss of manipulation and unhinged dedication to a misplaced cause. Perhaps it’s this mindset that keeps us so utterly obsessed and desperate to learn more, or it’s that the stories are so bizarre and unsettling that we are simply in awe of the mechanics that make these infamous groups tick.

What an Incredible Story!!
I admire India's courage and vulnerability. After watching documentaries and reading about the trial, there were so many questions that now, I feel, have been answered. Amazing story and beautifully written. Thank you for opening up and teeling your story. It's truly remarkable!

Well written and well read
I thought it was so important and so powerful how India describes what it’s like to have to go through deprogramming. Learning that there’s an entire physical side to mental and emotional trauma was really insightful. I can’t imagine what India has gone through, and the courageous acts on behalf of her mother to get her out. I’m so glad this story has a happy ending.

Still Learning
I thought India was brave to tell her story, although I felt that she held back some and censored what she wanted to share about her time in NXIVM. While she was open about her past, she seemed to have selective memory of her time in NXVIM. I found her voice and cadence pleasant to listen to. I am glad I listened to this book but I did get more out of Sarah's story (Scarred).

Wonderful memoir; more than the best Nxivm book
Written beautifully and narrated more than competently, India Oxenberg takes us through her search for insight and self-improvement that goes down a terribly dark road. The expensive classes requiring bringing in recruits is like other pyramid schemes. The courses must be taken and retaken. It utilizes the unethical hypnosis practice of NLP - neuro-linguistic programing. During the several levels of learning and 'EM's' to get you more 'integrated, you lose your own personality and will which is a gateway for its leaders (and not necessarily most of its staff) into an insidious indoctrination into the Nxivm subculture and mind control.
Ms Oxenberg is very forth-coming about her journey into Nxivm and its more secretive 'sorority' DOS. She notes the warning signs she saw and those she did not as well as her levels of compliance and indoctrinated she became. Included also is her recovery and how she got there.
Again, an excellent audiobook. She is a very talented writer, able to give great imagery to Nxivm and her experiences. Highly recommend

Amazing.
Such a moving and honest account of a horrific cult. Yet an inspiring reminder that we can move beyond our mistakes and programming.

Great Listen
I thought that “Still Learning” was a better insight to India. Having watched Seduced and The Vow, this gave the reader a better idea of India and what she went through before Nxism. I also prefer the author reading their books. It makes the listener more connected to the material in their own voice.

Enlightening story on mind control
India does a great job telling her story and giving insight into a dark and scary world.
I hope she will continue to heal and live a beautiful fulfilling life.

Better than watching The Vow
The Vow on HBO is just the tip of the NXIVM iceberg. India is one of the many voices that was missing from Mark and Bonnie’s retelling of escaping NXIVM. Her mother Katherine has spoken A LOT but to finally hear India tell her story, in her own words, was very compelling.
Her story is very well told and was an enjoyable listen, despite the nature of her story. Thanks for sharing India!
