Funny enough dr. thomas, I cannot seem to find it now, nor can I find Hansard's blog when I google his name. By what means are you finding it? He has linked more than enough other sites to his own since giving birth to the blog, so I've no doubt he will still be enjoying many visitors.

Thank you Pema for starting this thread and for all your work. You have been amazing! I agree that those who encourage Christopher Hansard are only making things much worse, however I do not want to alienate them either, as he has merely used this in his favour. As we know his defense has always been he is being harassed, therefore that he is the victim and not the other way around. While t

QuotepemaWhat I don't have is women willing to be interviewed in person and to go on record. They could be disguised in the media, but they would have to meet me or other journalists and make a signed statement. No media org will do an item on the basis of internet information alone. There is media interest and both patients as well as witnesses need to know that they may remain anonymous.

For those of you just tuning in, Christopher Hansard is currently and publicly being exposed as a fraud. There is no evidence what so ever of a gNam Chuk family ever having entered, resided or immigrated to New Zealand before, during or after the time of Christopher Hansard's supposed teachings with one Urygen gNam Chuk and/or his family. There are no Tantric Teachings in Dur Bon Medic

Christopher Hansard needs to be made accountable. If he is not, and those in his circle currently continue to protect him, as he has drawn on your sympathies, encouraged your collusion, and made himself the victim, he will in turn continue to harm people.

QuoteElizabeth NewtonGita, I can categorically state that Christopher Hansard's account of his Tibetan medical training in NZ is a complete fabrication.

Hello Thomas and Elizabeth, Thank you for replying. In regards to Hansard's defense, "crazy wisdom" only worked though somewhat weakly, for those from legitimate backgrounds and lineages such as Chögyam Trungpa.

Hello, I certainly hope I can either contribute something new, or at the very least renew the strength of this forum. It concerns me that this particular thread has lapsed recently as Christopher Hansard is happily practicing still in Victoria, he is still entering sexual relations with patients under the guise of a guru, and it was reported on another forum that he is now seeking credibility.
