What follows is the original Dear Fanatic "interview" first published in the "Valley Isle" newspaper. The Valley Isle was a feature newspaper published on Maui. Rick Reed was the "editor in chief", but CB approved of all of the material. The only thing he wrote was his own interviews. Reed edited the English. Several people swapped roles as reporters (all interv

BTW, on the page with the heading "Surrender to the Church" in the 'Acharya...blah blah" newspaper is a photo of former Hi. Senator Rick Reed. Yep, that's him standing to the right of CB wiping his nose. It was probably taken in 1976 -1977.

Very funny Googster! But don't you mean "war on EROTICISM"! Just a few notes. The talk on education was given in front of an audience of children, who are interviewed, but it is not always clear. Much of how he speaks to the children is appalling. The school, Ponomauloa, was already in operation for a year or more and clearly CB did not even know what KKd (aka Senator Mike G

No comment needed. Self-evident. Interesting insights into the mind of CB though...

The photo where the Self-Indulgent One puts himself on an equal footing (and and even bigger picture) with the previous other guru guys always cracked me up! If the past "acharyas" weren't men of perfection or even divine, at least they were learned and had saintly characteristics so glaringly lacking in CB!

CB would write and edit the articles with a little help from followers who had good English skills, usually college graduates. You’ll see the irony of this when you read CB’s talk on education. He would circle the parts of the fake interviews (he wrote the questions too) that he wanted to stand out. “Everyone Can Know Krishna” This really meant that no one can know God except CB and only

All in good time.... I'm getting stuff piecemeal right now and will post as I have time. Some of this page got cut off, so here it is again and more pages... Those of you that collect these things had better copy quickly before the trolls attack...

What follows are the first of some new found documents that prove much of what has been told on this and other forums about Chris Butler (CB) and his group. There are two types of documents; public, self-promotional materials and private memos to initiated disciples. The dates range from around 1977 to 1989. They will show the discrepancies between the incense-scented smoke screens and the rea
