Why GNM Can Come Across as "A Little Bit Culty"

The Real “Cult” of Medicine

One of the hardest things about living in alignment with the knowledge of GNM/GHK is that it challenges the fundamental worldview that most people have about health and disease. It’s such a radical shift that it can feel isolating—especially when the majority of society operates under a completely different paradigm. This is why GNM communities are so important, and why they can sometimes come across as “a little bit culty”.

But the real problem, as I see it is that we are already living within a cult. A global one. And just like a fish doesn’t realize it’s swimming in water, most people don’t recognize the fear-based medical system as anything unusual. It is simply “how things are.” Anything that challenges that paradigm is seen as a threat, ridiculed, or suppressed.

And it’s not just medicine. These fear-based systems are all-pervasive, having infiltrated nearly every aspect of society—religion, government, education, the financial system. They all operate with the same modus operandi: You are broken. You are powerless. You are a victim. And the only solution? To hand over your trust, autonomy, and sovereignty to an external saviour—whether that’s a doctor, a priest, a politician, or a bank. This disempowering belief system keeps people trapped in cycles of dependency, never realizing that the power to heal, to create, and to change their reality has always been within them.

The Fear-Based Paradigm of Medicine

Modern medicine, including many alternative healing modalities, is built on the assumption that we are faulty, broken, and in need of something external to save us—whether that be pharmaceuticals, surgeries, or even holistic treatments. The unspoken belief underlying all of it is that we are powerless over our own health.

GNM turns that completely on its head. It shows that healing is an intrinsic biological process and that symptoms are meaningful adaptations rather than random malfunctions. This is a profound shift, and one that people either embrace—or reject outright because it doesn’t fit into their existing framework of reality.

But that expectation—that something outside of us must be the answer—is the exact mindset that embracing the knowledge of the Five Biological Laws dissolves, freeing us from fear in the process.

The “Culty” Label and Systems of Control

Non-conformist ideas have always been labelled as dangerous. Throughout history, people who have challenged the dominant paradigm—whether in science, medicine, or politics—have been called heretics, conspiracy theorists, or cult members. This is how the system maintains itself: by making sure that alternative ideas are discredited before they gain traction.

Dr. Hamer himself was no exception. His work was not only rejected but actively suppressed. He was jailed, his medical license was revoked, and his theories were deliberately distorted. This alone should make people question why there was such an effort to silence him.

Addressing the Controversy Around Dr. Hamer

One of the most common criticisms of Dr. Hamer is that he made antisemitic statements, particularly in claiming that Jewish leaders in medicine and media orchestrated his downfall. This is a complex and sensitive issue that shouldn’t be ignored. To fully understand why Dr. Hamer made these claims, one must also be versed in the workings of the global power structures that shape medicine, media, and societal narratives. When viewed through the mainstream lens, his statements may seem inflammatory or prejudiced, but when examined in the context of the larger system of control—what some researchers, like David Whitehead in his series The Cult of the Medics, have explored—it’s easier to see why he believed he was being deliberately targeted. His conclusions weren’t based on blind hatred, but rather on his own lived experience of being systematically discredited, jailed, and having his work distorted or suppressed.

It’s also worth considering the era Dr. Hamer was from. Older generations often used language that, by today’s standards, can come across as offensive or prejudiced—even when the intent was not one of racial hatred, but rather frustration with specific individuals or institutions. Many of us have parents or grandparents who say things that sound outdated or even racist, not necessarily out of malice, but because that was simply how people of their time spoke. Additionally, there is always the factor of translation—German and English have different linguistic structures, and some nuances in meaning can be lost or altered in translation, making statements seem harsher or more absolute than originally intended.

However, these factors don’t change the fact that his comments alienated many and have been used to discredit his entire body of work.

Don't Throw The baby Out With The Bathwater

The real question, though, is whether Dr. Hamer’s discoveries about the biological nature of symptoms hold value. In GNM, there is no 'disease' in the conventional sense—only meaningful biological programs, adaptations that the body initiates in response to an unexpected, isolating, and acute conflict shock. What we typically perceive as 'illness' is often the healing phase—the body's natural process of repairing after it has successfully navigated the adaptation needed to survive the original conflict. This concept is difficult to grasp for those who view health through the mainstream paradigm of disease, where symptoms are seen as malfunctions rather than purposeful processes. But if we shift our perspective, we can begin to see symptoms not as something to be feared and suppressed, but as vital clues to how our psyche, brain and corresponding organs are operating.

If we were to dismiss every scientific breakthrough based on the personal views of its originator, much of modern medicine, philosophy, and science would have to be erased. Instead of focusing on Hamer’s personal opinions, the more important discussion should be: Is GNM valid? Does it help people understand their health in a new and meaningful way?

Reclaiming Health from the True Cult

At the end of the day, the question isn’t whether GNM is 'culty.' The real question is: Which paradigm do you want to live in? One that keeps you in fear, trapped in a victim mindset, reliant on outside authorities to save you? Or one that empowers you to understand and trust your body—one that helps you break generational patterns and consciously grow in mind, body, and spirit?

The irony is that the conventional medical system—the one that dismisses GNM as pseudoscience—is itself the true cult. It demands blind faith in doctors, pharmaceuticals, and endless harmful and in most cases unnecessary interventions. It punishes those who question it. And it keeps people trapped in fear.

GNM, on the other hand, offers freedom. It asks you to observe, to question, and to trust in the body’s ability to heal. And that’s why, I believe, it will always be seen as a threat.
