You are now being asked to step up and help provide protection to women from our own family who have come forward with stories of serious sexual abuse. I come to you as someone who has always loved him with a pure and open heart.Īs a child of this community and these teachings, I was raised to believe that we are here to protect each other, to protect those that cannot protect themselves. He held my family in his protective shield through so many challenges. He visited my room during my first 40 days of life. In my life, he gave me so much kindness, direction, discipline and love.

You know that Yogi Bhajan was like a grandfather to me. Truth is truth and can be uncovered no matter how much time has passed. More women are now rising up to support truth by sharing their stories. Pamela’s book started this, but this is not about her story alone. I believe most of them would never have shared their stories in order to protect those they loved. Having been raised in this Kundalini Yoga community, many of the women who have come forward are my childhood friends. In the last 2 weeks, I have personally heard from 7 women whose stories of being abused by Yogi Bhajan have been heartbreaking. I am deeply grateful that the organizations who have been stewards of Yogi Bhajan’s teachings have taken the brave step of creating this team and pursuing an independent investigation. I am writing to you as the team tasked with navigating the difficult process of reaching the truth of the sexual allegations that have been made about Yogi Bhajan.
