No one owes you anything here and it seems to me, having the ability to read and comprehend, others have already provided enough response to your points.
Richard is skilled and passionate about what he does and unashamedly vocal about it. He's also a kind person who put up with my harassment whilst I was manic and still made time to meet with me a year later. I consider him a friend now, he answers my phone calls and often has an informed perspective. Have you touched hands with him? Sat down and talked with him about his experiences? These separated mediums of communication provide an anonymity buffer. Funny that you brought it up, it's a great example of your agenda. He finds more value in training with Kumar than his past teachers. Who am I to say otherwise about his experience? What I can tell you is that he has skill and cross trains with other arts outside of what he does with Frantzis and that skill is readily evident.
Grey,
Chill out dude and smoke a doobie.
I am half joking with you because you are the one coming on like a full Reddit assault by digging up last names. Yes, think about that you gave us dude's full name while you haven't given up yours.
People know who I am and I even appear in some videos. But I don't use that or my past in each and every post because it doesn't matter.
Richard is a great guy and I have no doubt that BKF is the best teacher he has ever had. Richard is deep and so is BKF.
Saying that I don't think that any one teacher is for everyone on this planet. When I trained there the public weekly class ended after a number of years training there. BKF told us that we were nice people and didn't really want to learn martial arts that we were there for spiritual reasons, the problem is I wasn't. I wasn't there for spiritual instruction, I wasn't there for a guru and I was there to train and although it wasn't the primary goal of those classes it was what I focused on. So when those classes ended and week long meditation retreats became the focus I moved on. It wasn't the teacher for me and it wasn't the school for me. Also I already had a background in zen and Tibetan meditation.
I continued to train with some of his instructors and some instructors who also moved on. The interesting thing is one taught me his modified Wu style but he was completely honest that it was his form from his years of studying other styles. For me it was a great relief to find teachers and people who were completely honest about what they knew or didn't know and were willing to give me their time to train me of course it wasn't free but it was a long way from what I had before and from being told what I wanted to learn.
Sounds to me that Jesse, like me, has questions of his own. So rather then cyber bullying him why not listen to him and or answer his questions? I know three people personally who died of cancer who trained there. If Fred was convinced that this stuff would stop and or reverse his cancer I take issue with that. It's nothing personal, in China too where I ended up it became clear that people there make all kinds of claims and I didn't like it there and I don't like it here. I don't know the whole story but as I mentioned there are some there who seem to believe that this stuff can cure cancer. I don't believe it because there are just too many factors involved to say that moving chi is all you need.
Jesse can stick up for himself but I see no reason to cyber bully someone who doesn't hold your opinion and I believe you should delete his last name. In fact it has nothing to do with Jesse, if someone wants to fully identify themselves that should be there own decision.
