This is clearly about mass suicide, is it not?
Whether real of created by Godspeed, the preacher woman speaks of becoming a godlike creature. She has seen a vision of how the ultimate salvation is attained: through penetration through a secret window, through a drug that takes you to the other side. And she tries to convince followers that courage and dedication, the typical flaws of many cult followers, are the only way. Presses on their weak spot. Then minimalizes death by saying that in fact it's just some kind of dream, a dream in death. This is some very disturbing material to me.
"it takes dedication it takes a death"
"but i tell you if you follow the secret window and you die to the ego nature you will penetrate this darkness"
"because when you see the face of god you will die and there will be nothing left of you except the god-man, the god-woman the heavenly man, the heavenly woman the heavenly child there will be prayer on your lips day and night there will be a song of jubilee waiting for your king there will be nothing you will be looking for in this world except for your god this is all a dream a dream in death"
