I pay attention to omens. Last week, when I awoke, I looked out of my window to see a huge heron land on the very top of the tallest tree that's visible out of my window. I was literally rubbing my eyes, because I've never seen a heron in real life before - in my small English town, I tend to see pigeons and blackbirds and other small birds, but this was majestic. Later that day, I went

Does Moo reportedly commanding a heron be shot - a mother heron - because the bird is feeding on expensive koi fish in a decorative pond - does that sound like a lesson in love? Discussions of the heron situation can be read here:

Namaste Everybody, I saw a video posted by his holiness about injustice being done to George Floyd. He speaks of compassion and caring for the world, and I cannot help think about those who committed suicide and the countless who have been hurt. He said, "I don't see anyone different from me". Did he see the heron which he caused to be shot down any different from him? Su

That's good to know, Trav. I'm glad they (and you) could confirm the forced hair-cutting, the failed exorcisms, women reduced to tears by Moo's comments, the heron being shot dead and the series of relationships Moo has had with his female devotees, none of which has apparently been kept secret form anyone at any time. Lets hope we hear more form Moo's team about these

Well, Traveler99, I do find it interesting how this "Bob" person has gone from someone who might not mind his real name being used to being someone who needs "protection".

Traveler99, thanks again for your very informative analysis or the Moo organization, via your friend and her inner circle contacts "Bob" and "Kathy". It seems like these good people realize they are in a questionable organization, but that they feel it is no worse than any other fraudulent spiritual group, so they stay in the group anyway, just for kicks?

Hello All. I hope everyone is doing very well. I haven’t been on here for a while but felt to read some yesterday. I could rehash what I have already said. The heron was shot, the babies died. The woman he slept with was not the one that’s a lesbian. People see what they want to when they love Moo. Etc, etc. but I have come to find it a waste of time.

This “Open Letter” was written in good Faith. Mooji deserves to Respond, And it could well be weakness on the part of his inner circle that has prevented him from ding so up until now.
