Clarification of the Videos
“…everyone plays dumb to maintain a whitewashed narrative — at your expense …(and) is lying about the same thing…” – former member of SAT explaining the systemic dynamic of deception in the non-dual community and their willing complicity in covering for the lies and existential harm at the hands of my former teachers.
What were the lies?
The lies were in regard to the ‘supposed split’ of the teachings of the brothers Nome and Russell Smith and their formative connection with Candace O’Denver’s Great Freedom/Balanced View…AND the fact that all the currently acting non-dual teachers knew about what happened.
The supposed split between Nome and Russell Smith was a complete ruse.
The story in the drop-down pages of this section…under this tab…is one of abject manipulation and systemic complicity in the non-dual community and many who consider themselves ‘awake’ but who do not necessarily share the values of denial found in non-duality. It involves the corruption of collusion for purposes of control over autonomous lives. https://integrityintruth.com/clarification-of-videos/the-dogma-of-patriarchal-control/
In February of 2019 I released the first in a series of videos partially describing the extent of lies I had been forced to hold, under threat, for certain spiritual teachers: Nome, Russell Smith and Candace O’Denver (aka Ziji Rinpoche and numerous other aliases)…aided by Adyashanti/Mukti, Gangaji and numerous other currently acting teachers in the non-dual space.
As the threat had been existential (my life was threatened) and highly controlling, the original videos (#’s 1-8) were produced without naming names. This was the very beginning of a process attempting to describe a highly complex situation without-naming-names. The story would be confusing for anyone not familiar with these teachers. Because of that the videos now appear at the end of this tab and I have begun telling the story using words, naming-names and supplying photos to support a narrative that involves siddis (occult powers) which are nigh impossible to prove.
Unless one was familiar with the teachers involved and of what occurred at their hands, those videos would be impossible to understand.
Yet many in the non-dual community absolutely know of what had occurred.
It was/is to the non-dual community that those videos are directed.
In many cases trauma takes considerable time to unwind…especially where there has been extensive control and deep threat. Healing follows no particular timeline and is, most definitely, not a one-shot deal.
No amount of psychotherapeutic tools and strategies can substitute for actual justice and the telling-of-the-truth.
It is no over-statement to say I have been stalked by high-level siddis (occult powers) and other controls for the better part of this past decade. These teachers did not want this story (ever) to ever become public knowledge.
The following written explanations – in the drop-down tab of this section – will provide a bit of explanatory fill-in…as much as I am able on a public platform…with regard to the ‘secrets’ I was forced to hold.

I will be regularly adding to these ‘clarifications’ and, in some cases, using names and photos …especially when it provides clarity around credibility and evidence.
Thank you for your interest in the ever-evolving integrity and honesty of awakening teachings. ❦
