Re: Peter Hansard and Chris

I wouldn't advocate going after Peter Hansard, or anyone, without just cause, such as pending charges. I wanted to provide some background leads to help a genuine (and I hope fair) enquiry in case it should take place as there appeared to be a lot of confusion (understatement!) about CH's past; there were requests for people who had known him in NZ to tell their story and no one else had apart from "Lorenzetti." That's not surprising as I only came upon the RRforum webpage while looking up something else; decided to investigate; got to the index, saw "Christopher Hansard" and thought "Oh f**k, what's happened now?" And trawled through the whole sorry and bewildering 88 pages. I am completely unequipped to judge the partially- related experiences of people I have never met with someone I knew 25 years ago. But CH has been dogged by these troubles for a very long time and will, I believe, continue to be. Part of his nature. Yes, we all know the maxim "If you see the Buddha on the road, kill him". But that doesn't mean that a "spiritual friend" or "teacher" needs to resort to such "unskilful and unhealthy" (God that repellant New Age language) to prove his feet of clay. CH is simply prone to abuse of power. That is my concern for his future and that of those who may be associated with him.
