Naropa denies blame for alumna's suicide

The tragic story of Sharon Stern was printed in the Daily Camera recently, which includes a response from the President of Naropa University, Mr. Lief, who does not seem to have his facts correct according to Mr. Stern (on behalf of the Sharoni Stern Estate). Rather, in Mr. Stern’s opinion, Mr. Lief seems to be giving generic responses that fall short of the truth when compared to the hard evidence.

For those who do not know, Naropa University is where Sharon Stern first met the wicked Katsura Kan, who was actually one of her teachers there, and who as the evidence shows took advantage of his position to manipulate and brainwash her (and other students) so that he could continually exploit her for years, both during her time there and afterward.

Mr. Stern will be replying in great detail to the Daily Camera article tomorrow. In the meantime, you can read it by clicking HERE.

It's Time to Report Cults to the IRS

If you’ve ever left a cult, you quickly realize that most people don’t understand what you’ve gone through unless they’ve been through it themselves. Getting law enforcement officials to understand the harassment you’ve likely experienced seems almost impossible.

However, there is something you can do. It’s called the IRS Complaint Form 13909. What this form does is allow you to tell the IRS about the abuses of tax-exempt organizations without worry about being subject to retaliation.

Most cults have IRS tax-exempt status. Unfortunately, the IRS is unaware how these organizations can inflict deep psychological wounds on unsuspecting victims. The IRS also doesn’t know how many of these cults use threats to intimidate and control people through fear. This is one the reasons many of these abuses go unreported.

However, the IRS Complaint Form was developed with that thought in mind. It allows a person to report the abuses without becoming public record, thusly shielding the identity of the person filing the report.

These reports are kept by the IRS and the supposition is that if the IRS gets enough of these reports about a particular organization, their tax-exempt status might be in jeopardy.

Line 5 has a box that you can check if you are concerned that you might face retaliation if your identity is disclosed. The form is self-explanatory and should be used to report abusive practices to the IRS. You can download the form on Scribd.com at the link below:

The Power of Denial

Last month we discovered that Katsura Kan is conducting a student workshop in NYC. Upon hearing this news, we immediately sent the theatre that is hosting the workshop information and evidence about Kan's past manipulation and exploitation of his students. Their response was to threaten our organization with a lawsuit for libel, defamation, and harassment, opting to protect this evil sociopath rather than side with the facts and evidence to protect susceptible students from potential harm.

We also contacted the City of New York's Department of Cultural Affairs and the Department of Education to inform them of Katsura's workshop, both of whom were open to receiving and reviewing our information, and we look forward to hearing back from them.

This is what we are dealing with so often, in one simple word: denial; a denial which is causing so much needless suffering and damage to people's lives.

If they want to sue our organization that is of course their prerogative, but we are approved to bring awareness and to reveal the facts so that no other kids will be hurt by this predator and those like him. Moreover, we will continue to do so for as long as it takes to stop these wicked monsters from having their way.

Word of Faith Fellowship update... Word of Faith Fellowship update:

The WOFF church has lost some important funding from Brevard Jewish Community and Friends, as stated in an open letter to them,

“We have recently learned that several leaders within the Word of Faith church have been indicted on some very serious and very disturbing charges,” the letter said. “While we believe that everyone is innocent until proven guilty, we have also learned that there is a history of similar accusations involving this church. The abuse and persecution of anyone based on race, sexual orientation or religion is not acceptable to us.”
