Here's a good overview article on the DeathRay debacle that highlights the man's ignorance, hubris, lack of training and complete lack of understanding of his own responsibility towards his followers:

Bob Proctor, who has his own New Thought-based business to protect, speaks in JAR's defence:
'Then the deaths at the 2009 sweat lodge turned Ray's fame into notoriety and decimated his self-help business. Ray's lawyers dispute the medical examiner's findings that the victims died of heat stroke; his attorneys maintain that they may have died of some toxics given off by tarps or wood used to heat the stones.
Whatever the cause of death, Proctor, Ray's mentor, cites the Law of Attraction. "He has attracted this; why I don't know. There's a great lesson in it for him, whether he learns it or not," Proctor said. "Since the trial started, I've talked with him by text message, and he's asking himself some very serious questions."The main bulk of the article lays out in detail the number of falsehoods and deceptions Ray perpetrated on his followers regarding his knowledge and training of the hotchpotch of methods he used to work his scam.
I would suggest that the most pressing question Ray is asking himself is:
"How do I get out of this mess and carry on making money with my business intact?"---which would explain the firm of very high-priced lawyers he has employed to come up with bizarre excuses for him and attempt to bamboozle and bore the jury into submission.
Just in case anyone is still in doubt, there is no secret teaching of any kind and no secret masters hidden away, willing and waiting to pass on the key to everything one can desire.
The local library is a far better bet, for those inclined to the aquisition of arcane knowledge.
