Abstract

[This chapter reveals some of the stories of how and why people came into the Movement. Sociologists ponder the methods in which spiritual groups attract, retain, and replace members. While no solid historical record exists of the ways people entered, this chapter explains some particular stories gleaned from interviews and a 1990s survey of those who were available and could correspond with the authors. Numerous interviews were conducted at Prana, and some members were reinterviewed to update their biographies to 2011 and 2012 information.]
