Rosenn's in law, artist Manuel Colunga Hernandez, wrote asking this thread be removed. I've asked he or she or anyone else Rosenn wishes make a statement explaining their position.
There was also a threat to sue. That's yet another over reaction like we've seen so often before, people who misread what was said about them and demand no one even be allowed to ask questions. Plus you'd think people would realize by now, it's never worked.
Really, all this has done is draw attention, where no one had even responded to the initial request before.
Here was my response.
------------------
Your in law is listed under Research Needed. Thus far all there is at the listing is the initial request for more information.
Looking at the listing, she apparently studied under a "teacher" widely considered a fraud who exploits and makes false claims about Native cultures, Sandra Ingerman. The problems with that approach are discussed here:
http://web.archive.org/web/20030817075852/http://users.pandora.be/gohiyuhi/nafps/articles/art01.htm Your in law's ridiculous claims of being an expert in a wide variety of traditions is also suspect. One cannot possibly know disconnected bits and pieces of "Peruvian shamanism" (which doesn't exist), curanderismo, Tibetan traditions, Voodoo, and somehow be qualified by that to practice "Jewish shamanism."
We will certainly investigate further. Any statements you, she, or others wish to make we will gladly include.
