I did it last month and I got a lot out of it. It's a personal development programt that gives you a new way of thinking about your life and how you relate to the people in it. It teaches you how you let the things that have happened to you in the past shape how you think about yourself and others & how you let that influence decisions about your future. Once you let go of that you have a new sense of freedom for what is possible for you in your life. I found it to be extremely powerful.

FWIW I do not think it's a cult. My boyfriend was raised in one (unification church) and I asked him to attend the last session for his opinion. He does not find it to have the hallmarks of a cult, particularly because the Forum focuses on reconnecting you to the people in your life & strengthening your relationships with those close to you rather than isolating you and making itself the most important thing in your life.

I think Landmark gets the 'cult' label because it chooses to market itself solely by word of mouth and its promises seem too good to be true. Check it out for yourself, I wouldn't listen to people who haven't done it themselves. Like a Yelp review where the author never stepped inside the restaurant.

I took the landmark forum training several years ago. Like anything, you'll get out of it what you put into it. There are parts of the training that are deliberately designed to put you under stress, so some people don't like the experience. Some attendees can take it too seriously which is why sometimes people call it a cult. On balance, I still recommend it.
