Jewish Control

On Feb. 29, 2020 the Vancouver Shambhala Centre told me to leave and not come back. They are a Tibetan Buddhist organization and I started my Buddhist life with them almost 30 years ago. You can file a complaint with them or ask questions, by contacting

International Care and Conduct Panel

Dan Peterson, Desung Care and Conduct Officer – peterhana.dan@gmail.com

On Feb. 14^th at 1:43 pm Sandy Brooks phoned me using Victor Nicolle’s cell phone. I’ve always been particularly fond of Victor since my earliest days in 1991 so maybe that’s why Sandy asked to use his phone. Sandy said that her and Jan Russell have asked that I not attend the Sunday morning meetings because I have posted some pod casts which are anti-Semitic and some people feel uncomfortable. I think she meant the Jewish man Lawrence. At one of Acharya Susan Chapman’s courses he said that his Jewish family in England was harassed by Nazi’s after WWII, which seems odd since the Germans lost. I think he is the one who complained to Sandy, who is sitting in the photo below, dressed in black.

I said, “OK, I won’t go on the Sunday mornings if that’s what they want”. I explained, “I was objecting to the elite Jews, like the Rothschilds and I was objecting to their conduct, not their race. I’m not against ordinary Jewish people but I’m opposed to the elite”. I said, “I’m acting out the Bodhisattva vow of compassion for the world as the Rothschilds endanger the whole world and I’m following Chogyam Trungpa’s teaching to be genuine and authentic. The Rothschild bankers control almost every country in the world and they control Canada and I’m speaking out against that, out of compassion”. Sandy said that she appreciated how I felt but I make some people uncomfortable going there on Sunday mornings.

I responded, “But I’m pleasant to everyone there. I treat Jews fine when I’m there, like Dr. Ron Greenberg, who was my doctor.” I asked, “What do the Jews have to do with Buddhism?” Sandy said, “You’ve also denied the Holocaust.” I asked, “What does the Holocaust have to do with this?’ She said, “Some members had family who they lost in the war.” She couldn’t justify her position.

On Shambhala Day, Feb. 29, 2020 I went there and Shastri John Fox kicked me out. He said I was told I can’t come back at all but he was wrong. A shastri is a senior teacher who, in their leader, the Sakyong’s view, shastris should exemplify the fruition of the inward journey of meditation practice and embody goodness, basic goodness. John said they even checked with the police. That really hurt, of course, as I’ve gone there over the past 30 years. How would you feel if you were banished from your spiritual community? This is his photo on the left, when he was wired up for a brainwave test for meditators.

I kept this away from the public until I posted this on my Blog on Sept. 2nd. This is much bigger now. This affects all 140 Shambhala centres worldwide because the issue is, Jewish control over Shambhala has betrayed their religion. I am now working with others to “Make Shambhala Buddhist Again”. This is also the first time I am going public with an open higher realm presence to dissolve Jewish control from Shambhala. Both sides are above the law as there are no laws regarding the use of higher realm powers. This engagement is now on but I have compassion for the dark side. I want to encourage them to care about Shambhala members and follow the intentions of their founder and current leader and their Kagyu lineage from Tibet.

This is a matter among Buddhists so I asked a higher authority for advice. Venerable Paññobhāsa Mahathera has been a Buddhist monk for about 30 years and his wise advice and counsel is listened to by thousands of people. He took my side and made the first video about this issue with me, here: Jewish Control Over Buddhism – 27 – Brian Ruhe kicked out of Vancouver Shambhala Centre

Below is the documentation of Shambhala Int’l’s  conflict with me, in ascending order.

Hi Desungs Kristen and Dan,

The reason why I haven’t gone public yet is not because I’m such a nice guy or that I am waffling. It’s because I’m busy with higher priority matters which you can see as the recent videos posted on The Brian Ruhe Show. You people are a nuisance to me. The Jewish world will not care about some tiny Buddhist group that most people never heard of. Therefore, they won’t bother to retaliate against me.

I’m writing today to protect Kristen. Dan Peterson is untouchable. The reason why I know this is because of Dan Peterson’s eye contact when he did the Zoom with me. He’s honest. He’s good. Dan is protected. Kristen showed hesitation, uncertainty and a bit of worry in her eyes. Kristen is the one responsible for replacing the Cythia MacKay contact and she has failed to do so… and time is running out.

Here’s my point: I can’t control the higher realms. There is no self so I’m not even sure that I initiated this karmic process. If fact, looking back since July 24, 2014 I can now see a pattern indicating that Brian Ruhe is an instrument for the higher realms and I will probably never know who they are. I just responded to inspirations that came through me in those present moments. I didn’t have “a plan”.

Even if I am responsible for all that I initiated since 2014, at this time, I deliberately asked the higher realms to do my bidding with regard to pushing out Jewish power from Shambhala. I caused other human beings to chant with me for this aspiration as well. But, once my part is done, I am not in control. Not only that, I am not even aware of the results of the process unless I do a conventional investigation to see what happened, to whom.

This is about Kristen. I care about all beings. I assume that George Washington and Thomas Jefferson didn’t want to kill anybody but King George didn’t cooperate with them. They had to start the American Revolution in order to save more lives, than the ones they took. I’m worried about what’s going to happen to Kristen if she doesn’t get through to Shambhala Int’l and get someone to contact me. Kristen could at least give me a name and email address. A phone number would be super kind of her, too. She’s got to hold her end up or she is in a similar position to Cynthia MacKay. Right after The Brian Ruhe Show Group made the decision to act, and after we did our deva invocation practice, and after I lead the appropriate chants, bing! Cynthia MacKay “is no longer employed by Shambhala”.

I don’t feel good about this nuisance. I’m not happy about doing this. I don’t want Kristen to be disturbed in her life but the point is, I am not in control. It’s not up to me. Back around 2002 or 2003 I met with my teacher, Ajahn Sona and we were talking about my use and my wife’s use, of the higher realms, back then. I was married then, to a Thai shaman, Pia Ruhe, who was the real deal. East Indian women would pay her money to get their husbands back, after they took off and I witnessed her successful accomplishment of this, before my own eyes. Pia taught me a few things and we divorced on good terms. Ajahn Sona told me, “Look Brian, when you use these kinds of spirits it’s like hiring the mafia to protect your business. You give them a 10% cut and you’re happy and it works out fine. Then later, the trouble is gone and you decide you don’t need to hire them anymore. But you find they keep coming back and they want their cut. You’re pressured into keeping up the relationship… and then they’ve got you. You’re not in control anymore.”

I’m not reckless with the higher realms. Even in my first higher realm confrontation involving Dale Trimble at the Vancouver Shambhala Centre in the fall of 1998, I told the then, Pia and Brian Ruhe group of five of us (and Pia was the person they were all coming to see), “Using higher realm powers is like using nuclear weapons. It’s best to practice the utmost restraint.” As a 38 year old junior Buddhist practitioner I was conservative in nature and I’m even more conservative today.

Anyhow, my current plan is that I have to make a few phone calls to Vancouver Shambhala members as part of the revelation of the method, before I can go public to defend Shambhala members from their Jewish overlords. Plus, if Kristen drops the ball there are people at Shambhala Int’l that I must attempt to contact. Then, as far as I am aware, I will be ready for launch date.

After that, I am not in control of what is unleashed upon Shambhala.

Date:	Wed, 5 Aug 2020 18:39:08 -0700
From:	Brian Ruhe <brian@brianruhe.ca>
To:	Cynthia MacKay <cynthiamackay@mac.com>

Hi Cynthia,

Desungs Rev. Kristen Mullen and Dan Peterson have been in touch with you about me and Dan’s statement about that is below, along with some relevant emails. I request that the Vancouver Shambhala Council reverse their policy and allow me to join their sangha. There’s still time to do this.

Too much time has gone by without you communicating with me so we assume that you and your associates have decided to ignore me. That was a mistake on your part. I am now required to try to contact at least one more person in the hierarchy as you shouldn’t bear the responsibility for what happens to the entire mandala nor should you be trusted with the decision to ignore Brian Ruhe and affect the future of the organization. I will try to get a response from someone else but you could help by referring me to someone. I would like the Dorje Loppon Lodro Dorje.

I assume you know the situation so I will continue as though you do. If you want more of a paper trail of what has happened since Feb. 2020, I will send it, if you ask.

The revelation of the method requires that I inform Shambhala int’l of what we will do to it, before we do it. Here’s the plan:

1) On the full moon of Aug. 3 our first higher realm defense was launched against Jewish Control Over Shambhala. The higher realms will be continuously invoked in this effort until Jewish Control Over Shambhala is relinquished. This includes the support and conscious assistance given to us by Shambhala Int’l dralas and devas.

2) I will release at least five new videos explaining Jewish Control Over Shambhala.

3) We will film video/s right in front of the Vancouver Centre.

4) We are striving towards freeing Shambhala members everywhere from another religion taking over Shambhala Buddhism. We are Shambhala supporters and members working to support other Shambhala members from within the Shambhala International organization. We remain loyal always to Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche and to the Sakyong.

5) We will spend money to spread this truth on social media and Buddhist chat groups.

6) I will abort this path of action at any time that my requests are granted.

ki ki so so,

Hi Desungs Kristen and Dan,

I found out that I have got to act on the full moon of Monday Aug. 3^rd. You have that long to get Cynthia MacKay or someone else to respond.

The public will not be aware, on the full moon, of my actions as that is still just higher realm. You still have time to do the right thing. If you don’t respond I will, very shortly after that, release videos explaining Jewish Control Over Shambhala and how we are striving towards freeing Shambhala members everywhere from another religion taking over Shambhala Buddhism. We are Shambhala members working to support other Shambhala members from within the Shambhala International organization. We remain loyal always to Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche and to the Sakyong.

Even after I release my public videos I offer to take them down if the Vancouver Shambhala Centre reverses their policy and allows me to go to their centre.

As always, this is your karma, your choice.

Hi Dan and Kristen,

You wrote that, “Whether the decision to ask you to leave was well founded or not is something the Care and Conduct Panel can not address, and for that reason we have referred this matter to Cynthia MacKay.” I don’t understand that. I thought it was your Panel’s job to decide on that.

But it’s fine if you referred the matter to Cynthia MacKay. Is she going to contact me or are you going to give me her contact info? I would like to discuss this with you, Kristen. Should we use Zoom , Skype or phone or what? I have my own Zoom. My Skype is brianaruhe and my phone 604-738-8475. It seems likely this will go to the next level, which will require a decision by Cynthia MacKay or someone higher.

Thanks Dan. I believe that you have been sincere and genuine.

Dear Brian,

My apologies for the delay getting back to you. So the following is the information that I have:

Cynthia MacKay has contacted some members of the Vancouver, B.C. Shambhala Center.  She has not relayed to me any specific information about how she is proceeding, but I was happy to hear that she has stepped forward here.

The International Care and Conduct Panel has decided that the complaint you made does not describe misconduct that falls within our responsibility to address.  Mr. Fox was acting at the behest of the Vancouver Shambhala Council, so his request for you to leave the Center on Shambhala Day, though upsetting to you, can not be regarded as misconduct on his end. The issue of whether the Vancouver Center can bar someone from their premises is not in question – Centers have the authority to determine that, and in fact occasionally this does occur. Whether the decision to ask you to leave was well founded or not is something the Care and Conduct Panel can not address, and for that reason we have referred this matter to Cynthia MacKay.

I have taken the liberty of including Kristen Mullen on this e-mail.  She is the Regional Desung Commander for the Garuda Region, which extends from Alaska to Southern California, and includes Vancouver, B.C.  She has agreed to be available to you if you would like as a representative from Shambhala to discuss this matter.

The Care and Conduct Panel is closing this case. If you have concerns about this decision on our end you may appeal this, as described in the policy.

Respectfully,
Dan Peterson, Desung Care and Conduct Officer

for the International Care and Conduct Panel

Dear Dan,

Thank you kindly for getting back to me soon. This is the written statement you asked for, with it also attached so it’s easier to read than an email.

Since I left the Vancouver Shambhala Centre to work at Karme-Choling in 1992 I haven’t gone there regularly until Nov. 13th, 2019. Prior to that I went there a few times a year, such as on April 4^th. Last November I continually went there once or more a week. It wasn’t an issue when it was so infrequent before. I was controversial since 1998 when I published my book, Freeing the Buddha, and I switched to Theravada Buddhism and I criticized the authenticity of the Mahayana. In 2019 Ven. Pannobhasa convinced me that I was wrong because the Pali suttas are also largely later writings so I went to the Shambhala Centre and personally apologized to many members plus I made a public apology in a video. They were fine about that but I didn’t realize that that was not their problem with me.

Sandy Brooks’ phone call

On Feb. 14^th at 1:43 pm Sandy Brooks phoned me using Victor Nicolle’s cell phone. I’ve always been particularly fond of Victor since my earliest days in 1991 so maybe that’s why Sandy asked to use his phone. Sandy said that her and Jan Russell have asked that I not attend the Sunday morning meetings because I have posted some pod casts which are antisemitic and some people feel uncomfortable. I think she meant the Jewish man Lawrence. At one of Acharya Susan Chapman’s courses he said that his Jewish family in England was harassed by Nazi’s after WWII, which seems odd since the Germans lost. I think he is the one who complained to Sandy.

I said, “OK, I won’t go on the Sunday mornings if that’s what they want”. I explained, “I was objecting to the elite Jews, like the Rothschilds and I was objecting to their conduct, not their race. I’m not against ordinary Jewish people but I’m opposed to the elite”. I said, “I’m acting out the Bodhisattva vow of compassion for the world as the Rothschilds endanger the whole world and I’m following Chogyam Trungpa’s teaching to be genuine and authentic. The Rothschild bankers control almost every country in the world and they control Canada and I’m speaking out against that, out of compassion”. Sandy said that she appreciated how I felt but I make some people uncomfortable going there on Sunday mornings.

I responded, “But I’m pleasant to everyone there. I treat Jews fine when I’m there, like Dr. Ron Greenberg, who was my doctor.” I asked, “What do the Jews have to do with Buddhism?” Sandy said, “You’ve also denied the Holocaust.” I asked, “What does the Holocaust have to do with this?’ She said, “Some members had family who they lost in the war.” She couldn’t justify her position. I said, “Well sometimes a member might get drunk at a party but they can still come back, right?’ Sandy said, “If someone gets drunk they can just send them home in a cab but your views are offensive to some people so Jan and I request that you don’t come to the Sunday mornings”. I replied, “Well, Jan’s husband Bob is very friendly to me. He likes having me there. And I brought Jan there 20 years ago. She wouldn’t even be there if it wasn’t for me”. Bob is part Jewish.

Sandy Brooks responded, “Well, that’s neither here nor there”. But the Buddha taught that three people should be remembered, the one who introduced you to the path, the one who established you on the path and the one who led you to a deeper insight. I have taught Buddhism to 15,000 people in adult ed. courses for 20 years and I introduced Jan and Bob to the centre from my course in 1999. They have been stalwart volunteers and I feel some betrayal by Jan, not Bob. I have always spoken well of the Shambhala Centre. Even though I am a Theravada Buddhist, I brought many people there.

The Shambhala Centre should be a place for peace and meditation. I leave politics and history outside the door when I’m there. So should others. I am low key. What if a white liberal person said they felt uncomfortable with another person there who had a blog supporting the Conservative Party? Would they ask a conservative to not appear on Sunday mornings? Where do you draw the line? What matters is my conduct. Both in person and online I am respectful of Shambhala and it’s principles.

I felt disturbed by this and as soon as I heard Sandy’s voice on the phone at my home I assumed she was going to say something like that or that I couldn’t even come to the Shambhala Centre at all. In fact, I was relieved that she said just the Sunday mornings. I continue to be bothered and offended by this and I am strategizing my response. I feel a tiny clique want me to go away but the vast majority of members like me or don’t know me. Geoff Banoff was fine with me going to his many open houses which was the second to last time I was there.

An hour after Sandy’s phone call I invoked the higher realms and determined to forge on. As the Buddha said, “As the elephant endures the shafts of battle, I will endure harsh words”. The law of karma supports me and it will turn against the Shambhala members who act against me. This happened in 1998 when they tried to get me fired from my Buddhist teaching jobs. Dale Trimble met with me. They lost. I won. And they remember it. That is another story. Some of them might realize who they are dealing with. Most don’t.

Shambhala Day Feb. 29^Th, 2020

About 10:00 am I went to the Vancouver Shambhala Centre with some ham & cheese as well as egg wraps for their pot luck lunch. I was hesitant about going that morning because I knew only a minority of members there objected to my presence. I didn’t want that to stop me so decided to go. It was Shambhala’s New Year Day, the biggest Day of the year. I made eye contact with Kate Abato and said Hi. Ginny Evans and I looked at each other with a smile and shared greetings. I haven’t talked to Ginny in years. She’s an old friend and teacher who turned against me because of our Theravada/Mahayana differences. I had a pleasant greeting with Dale Trimble. I said, “Hey Dale, I haven’t seen you in years! Your looking very well”. “So are you,” he said. Dale was the one who was elected to meet with me in the fall of 1998.

I was a bit surprised there were only about 15 people there. As I walked towards the shrine room were everyone sits I could see John Fox’s eyes glued to me. I entered the room and gave the customary bow, then decided to deliberately sit beside John. I saw Bob Russell at the back. His wife Jan Russell was sitting by the window. I didn’t make eye contact with them but Jan and Sandy Brooks asked me not to go to the Sunday morning meetings. I walked to the end of the cushions and sat beside John which was conspicuous as there were mostly empty cushions everywhere. I sat and watched the computer screen as we were all expecting to watch the Shambhala Day address from the head office in Halifax.

I began to meditate and wait. Then, John leaned over to me and whispered, “Do you realize there are some people here who are uncomfortable with you being here?” I whispered back, “Yeah, some of them. I know”. John continued, “Could we talk about it outside?” I said, “Sure”. John was the one that the Shambhala Centre sent to deal with me when there were concerns in the past and I like John and wanted to talk with him. He is the one I preferred to meet with in a situation like this. So, I walked out of the shrine room and what I was planning at that moment was to lead John into the smaller meditation room because I wanted to engage him in a longer conversation and I assumed he might not want to talk for as long as I wanted. I took control of the situation. I asked John if he wanted to sit on a cushion and he said he would sit in a chair. I took a chair and sat with an empty chair between us.

John Fox explained that some people felt uncomfortable with me being there and he referred to Sandy Brooks’ phone call to me on Feb. 14^th. I said, “When Sandy called me she said that she and Jan Russell didn’t want me to come on Sunday mornings because there was someone who felt offended by me so I agreed not to come on Sunday mornings.” John said, “That’s not true. And we’ve talked to others and to the police”. So, I realized that John was misinformed. What I said was true and what John said was not true. John believed that Sandy Books phoned me and told me not to come to the Shambhala Centre at all. Sandy Brooks knows for sure that this is not true. There was no ambiguity in her words nor mine.

So John Fox continued on saying that I shouldn’t be there. I said, “Well, they can use Chogyam Trungpa’s teachings to deal with their projections about me. I talked with a Buddhist monk in Australia about this and he said, “They’re afraid of you at the Shambhala Centre, Brian” so I understood that the Shambhala Centre doesn’t want to be publicly associated with me. I agree to that. I wrote to Geoff that I won’t discuss my comings and going here on my Internet talk show. As far as the public is concerned I’m a Theravada Buddhist and they don’t know that I come here. It’s best to keep this private. I agreed to not come on Sunday mornings but I was just at Geoff’s talk last Wednesday and that was no problem”. John asked me to go and I said, “So you mean you don’t want me to come back at all.” He nodded and I said, “Well, I have been coming here over the past 29 years so that’s a long relationship. And this is my home centre where it all started for me.” John said, “Brian, I don’t want to get into a long discussion”.

I planned for this moment and I said, “I anticipated this meeting now so I’m going to tell you what will happen. I would like to talk with two members of the Shambhala Centre. I’ll go but I would like to talk with them within three days”. John looked like he just wanted to get rid of me. His body language was that he started getting up to open the door. So, he didn’t give me enough time to say what I planned to say but I said this much. “I work with the dralas and the devas associated with the Vancouver Shambhala Centre and I’m protecting Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche”. John wasn’t stopping to discuss this further. He stood at the door and I continued to hold my seat and I repeated, “Could I talk to someone in the next 72 hours?” John said, “Yes” with an uncooperative look on his face and he avoided eye contact, looking north. I said, “OK. I’ll go”.

I slowly and mindfully walked out of the room and sat down and laced my shoes and put on my yellow jacket and grey hat. John stood solid in front of me, staring north, avoiding eye contact. I kept a calm, straight face throughout and slowly paced out the door with a couple of people in the kitchen watching me leave.

I was there from 10:00 am to 10:20 am

This did bother me for a few days but it passed. I say the most controversial things online so I accept that some people are not going to want to have me around. I have brought this upon myself. Regardless of whether or not I am right or wrong, some people are afraid of being associated with me because they feel it could damage their reputation. This I have to accept. The extent to which the members are innocently fearful of their association with Brian Ruhe, they are forgiven and they don’t have any negative karma in keeping me away. The extent to which there is an int’l Jewish conspiracy to keep me away is their negative karma and the Vancouver Shambhala Centre dralas and devas are unhappy about that. Those devas will do what they want to do about it and I may or may not know about what they do, in the future.

John didn’t call me on time so four days later I sent him the email below.

This is the fifth, as promised, video I released about Shambhala:

Hi John,

When we last met on Feb. 29^th you said that you or someone else from Shambhala would call me within three days. It has been four days now. Perhaps you didn’t have my phone number. It is 778-232-2282. I think a few days is good as we have both had time to relax about it and have a balanced view. I continue to care about Shambhala and I go along with the rules. So please give me a call anytime.

Hi John,

I still haven’t heard from you as you promised. You had misinformation about what Sandy Brooks said to me so I am giving you my record and notes of my conversations with her and you, below so you can get back to me, thanks. I think that this is something we can settle to my satisfaction privately with the Vancouver Shambhala Centre (VSC) without contacting Halifax. I don’t intend to go public and inform the 2,000 people who listen to me everyday on the Internet…

I wrote to him again on May 17^th. Still no answer. You can have that email too, if you want. After employing the Buddhist tradition of asking three times, I wrote to you.

So, that is my written statement. My understanding is that there was misconduct by Shastri John Fox mainly but also by Sandy Brooks and Jan Russell. My understanding of the harm that they caused is that they banished me, after 29 years, from the Vancouver Shambhala Centre for a minor reason that is not about Shambhala Buddhism.

I await your response.

Thank you kindly,

Brian
