  New religious movement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A new religious movement (or NRM) is a religious faith, or an ethical, spiritual or philosophical movement of recent origin that is not part of an established traditional denomination, church, or religious body.
NRMs are very diverse both in their beliefs, practices, the way they are organized, and the degree of acceptance by society.
The Cargo Cults are interpreted as indigenous NRMs that have arisen in response to colonial and post-colonial cultural changes, and with the influx of modernisation and capitalist consumerism.

 Religious Movements in the United States (Miller)
Typically, NRMs are accused of such wayward activities as brainwashing and mind control of their members, accumulation of great amounts of money (and sometimes property), and destruction of family life.
It is certainly the case that some converts to NRMs, zealous in their newfound convictions, choose to emphasize their relations with their new compatriots and not to spend a lot of time with their birth families.
Deprogramming typically involved the forcible abduction of the NRM member, who was taken to a distant facility and subjected to intense psychological and sometimes physical pressure in an effort to “save” the errant family member.

 ClickerSolutions Training Articles -- NRMs
NRMs are intended to be a verbal cue for extinction, not a punisher, so people attempt to say them in the most neutral tone of voice possible.
In a training session, the trainer would either click or use the NRM after each rep to let the dog know whether his behavior was correct or not.
The biggest problem is that NRMs may not be as neutral as we want them to be.

The regional NRM plans that these groups develop are considered by the state/territory and Australian Governments according to a set of agreed national criteria.
Whilst most councils are aware of the regional NRM processes and have attended briefing sessions, it is evident that greater work needs to be undertaken to effectively engage local government in the development of regional plans (and the subsequent investment strategies).
For example, councils in the South NRM region of Tasmania all believed their local plans were compatible or mostly compatible with the regional plans.
