Description/History:
Christopher Hansard was taught Tibetan Dur Bon Medicine in New Zealand from a man named Urgygen gNam Chuk. His teachings were passed down to him as they had been passed down to Urygen and as they have been passed down through generations.
It is difficult for some to understand these things without "proper documentation". We want "evidence", and our own experiences are seemingly no longer valid. We doubt what we feel, what we see, what we have touched, tasted and smelled. We doubt all of our senses, and in doing so we doubt our very selves. It seems times have changed since the days when even if we could not entirely put our trust in others, we could at least acknowledge and respect their experiences, and still trust and honour our own.
It is difficult for us to understand and accept that without material "proof" our experiences are real. But there is no material evidence, nor tangible traces left behind in an oral tradition, aside from the effect they have on our lives, and aside from the effects they have on our senses. This is what we find ourselves struggling with now.
Some time ago a gentleman by the name of Jeffrey Bowes wrote Christopher Hansard a letter questioning the teachings and the manner in which they were passed down to Christopher. Christopher replied to Mr. Bowes, but his explanation was deemed insufficient and ever since then Mr. Bowes has contacted and repeatedly harassed any who have supported, promoted, or benefited from their acquaintance with Christopher Hansard, both in the past, and present, and he will continue to do so in the future.
Christopher has not always walked alongside those teachings that were passed down to him by Urygen Ngam Chuk. He has faltered from time to time that much is true, but now he is being called upon to answer to things that he has not faltered in. Christopher Hansard is taking the lessons from his own failings and he is making change in his life. Real change and like any of us, he should be afforded the grace to do so.
There are 3 sites that have come to our attention as friends, patients and fellow practitioners that we would very much like to acknowledge and draw everyone's attention to. These are the following: www.culteducation.com, www.durcon.com, and www.isitdurbon.com.
We would like to call on everyone who are and have been friends, and patients, and who have had positive experiences with Christopher Hansard.
People who are trying to relay anything positive are simply being revoked on the Rick Ross site, and while we were trying to just allow, and let some simply go through their pain, and release, they are not relenting, they are not letting up, and we now have to defend ourselves and our experiences in any way we can, and we think we can best do this by bringing light into the situation and giving a voice to those who are being refused.
Due to unrelenting harassment, the sponsors of this petition have good reason to believe that some potential signatories have been made fearful of defending Christopher Hansard, and are being discouraged from coming to his aid, for standing up for what they believe in and for honouring their own experiences. We all have a right to our own experiences and no one has a right to deny us, to make us feel ashamed of, or to belittle what we believe in.

Petition:
We, the undersigned, have good reason to believe that Christopher Hansard’s story of his training is true. We believe, therefore, that he is offering complimentary and alternative medical treatments, courses and workshops based on a true traditional oral teaching and on real skill.
We have found much benefit from our acquaintance with Christopher Hansard and many of us can attest to the claims of him genuinely assisting people with both acute and chronic conditions, including cancer, but he has always maintained that his help is meant to compliment any form of orthodox medical treatment and our own healing experiences.
Christopher Hansard no longer offers training to others in his system and dismissed all apprentices at the end of 2006 as it was his wish and at his patients request that he return to caring for and being responsible for each patient personally.
We believe that Christopher Hansard understands the responsibilities, ethical and boundary issues and duty of care that patients should expect and this is demonstrated by the changes he continues to implement in his daily practice.
We believe that Christopher Hansard should be allowed and encouraged to continue practicing what he was taught in the way of the Dur Bon Teachings as they have benefited many through out the world.
We, therefore, call on all authorities invested with the responsibility for protecting the public to do just that and investigate the accusations being made presently against Christopher Hansard and invite them to assess his suitability to offer and practice Tibetan Dur Bon healing methods in the hopes that as a member of the public he be left to enjoy his right to practice and continue to serve others.
