This is a tough one, but an important message – I have heard from five different practitioners on SOV who have heard from this caller – and it’s a problem, my friends.
Here is a note from Dinah, which echoes what the others have said:
ATTN ENERGY WORK/BODY PRACTITIONERS:
I received a call from a man on my cell phone about a month ago claiming he was a spiritual Guru from Tibet and that he received my number in meditation. He sounds friendly, compelling and sincere. I spoke with him on the phone for longer than I’d like to admit as he seemed interesting and nice. He’s not.
He is specifically seeking women in Reiki/Tantric fields and taking personal information from the internet to contact them. I’ve spoken to other people in Victoria who’ve also received this call, many of the calls leading to sexual references and a forum on the internet of horrible stories about women who went far enough to meet up with him at his “retreat” in Sedona, Arizona or Florida.
He is a sexual predator. Do NOT engage with him. I have since reported it to VicPD – if you feel comfortable reporting it, I encourage you to do so. Perhaps if we all reported these calls, they’d take it more seriously.
If you feel icky or shame for having engaged with him, I see you. If you need support, talk to a trusted loved one or counsellor. Remember, it’s not your shame to hold. You have done nothing wrong.
Please share widely with anyone you know, particularly people in this field. Let’s keep each other safe 💛
