DNA Test Confirms Karmapa Fathered a Child, Source Says

The impulse to believe the absurd when presented with the unknowable is called religion. Whether this is wise or unwise is the domain of doctrine. Once you understand someone's doctrine, you understand their rationale for believing the absurd. At that point, it may no longer seem absurd. You can get to both sides of this conondrum from here.

Note October 24, 2022: The post will be updated soon with the latest developments. For the time being, see the news in the comment section.

A court-mandated paternity test has proven conclusively that the 17th Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje fathered a child with a woman, according to a source close to the Karmapa. The woman, Vikki Han, alleges that the sex was non-consensual and she has engaged a lawyer for a civil rape case. At the same time she is pursuing child support and alimony in a separate case in the Canadian courts.

A trial date of July 2022 that had been set by the Supreme Court of British Columbia in Canada has been postponed, the source close to the Karmapa says. According to that source, the Karmapa’s lawyers requested that postponement after receiving the results of the paternity test. The Karmapa took the paternity test in London at the end of January of this year, the source says. The test confirmed that the Karmapa was the father of a girl born to Vikki Han on June 19, 2018 in Canada, according to the source. The postponement gives time for the two parties to come to a settlement out of court. Such an out-of court settlement would allow the records of the paternity test to remain sealed.

Vikki Han is one of three women thus far who have publicly alleged that they had secret intimate relationships with the Karmapa and/or were sexually abused or assaulted by him. The other two women are Jane Huang and Wu Hang-Yee. (See links below for their allegations.) The Karmapa has not publicly denied any of the allegations.

A Canadian resident, Han was a disciple of the head of the Karma Kagyu sect of Tibetan Buddhism of which the Karmapa is the supreme head. Han was holding vows of celibacy at the time that she became pregnant. In his online teachings the Karmapa continues to appear dressed as a celibate Buddhist monk, as can be seen on his Youtube channel.

THE IMPREGNATION

In May 2021, news reports of Han’s allegations began to circulate after public documents were filed in the Supreme Court of British Columbia in Canada. In those documents (available here) Han alleged that the Karmapa impregnated her while she was engaged in a retreat at a “monastary”, referring to a women-only retreat house at Karme Ling Retreat Centre in Delhi, New York. Karme Ling is a centre run by Karma Triyana Dharmachakra (KTD), the Karmapa’s North American seat in Woodstock, New York.

Han says she had aspired to become a nun and had taken celibacy vows for the duration of the traditional Karma Kagyu three-year-three-month retreat. She says on October 14, 2017, the Karmapa entered her private meditation cell during that retreat and sexually assaulted her while the two were left alone in her room, the court documents claim. This assault left her pregnant with the Karmapa’s child, Han alleges in the court document. Han abandoned the retreat and her plans to become a nun, it continues.

She subsequently informed the Karmapa, the 2021 court document says. It also references extensive text and audio messages exchanged between her and the Karmapa during her pregnancy and the first year of their daughter’s life. In his communication with Han, the Karmapa appeared to acknowledge that the child was his and expressed his intention to care for her and the child, the court document states.

The Karmapa had $350,000 CAD and $420,000 USD transferred to her throughout 2018 through various third parties, the court documents indicate. Later, in January 2019, shortly after allegations of sexual and secret relationship with two other women emerged in Chinese-language press, the Karmapa recorded an announcement (watch it here) in which he stated that he was physically and mentally unwell. He says he was in “retreat” in an undisclosed location in the company of undisclosed persons. At that time, the Karmapa cut off all contact with Vikki Han, the court documents say.


In 2019, Han subsequently engaged Canadian attorneys to pursue child support, acknowledgment of paternity and a paternity test, according to the same court document. In May 2021, the court found in favour of her application to file additionally for alimony.

THE PATERNITY TEST

According to sources, the Canadian court later mandated a DNA test to ascertain whether or not the child was fathered by the Karmapa, as Vikki Han alleged.

The Karmapa gave his DNA for the paternity test in January of this year in London, according to a source close to the Karmapa. The results of the DNA test confirmed Han’s assertion that the Karmapa is indeed the father of her young daughter, according to that same source.

After the paternity test established the validity of Han’s claim that the Karmapa was the father of her child, the source says that the Karmapa’s lawyers in Canada requested for the court case in Canada to be postponed, allowing time for the parties to come to a settlement out of court. In the event such an out-of-court settlement is reached, the results of the paternity test can remain sealed and would not have to be revealed publicly in court. If a non-disclosure agreement is also signed, none of the information surrounding the alleged sexual assault or intimate relationship between the Karmapa and his disciple will be disclosed to the public.

THE MONEY

The source close to the Karmapa says that the Karmapa has ordered additional monies paid to Vikki Han in the past year. This is on top of the $350,000 CAD and $420,000 USD paid during her pregnancy and the months after the infant’s birth, as alleged in the court document. The more recent payments bring the total paid to Han to around $1,000,000 USD, the inside source says.

However, according to the source close to the Karmapa, Han is seeking in excess of $7 million USD from the Karmapa, as well as her substantial legal fees. The deal under discussion would settle both the civil rape case in New York and the child support and alimony case in British Columbia in Canada, the source says. Should an agreement be reached, the source says that the likely outcome is that the outstanding cases in New York and Canada would both be settled out of court, and no information would be made public.

In the meantime, the inside source says that Han also had her lawyers initiate legal proceedings in New York against Karma Triyana Dharmachakra for its role in Han’s alleged assault and impregnation while attending a three-year [retreat] at its Karme Ling retreat centre. The source says that the New York court had found in favour of Han in those proceedings which are presently in an initial stage.


Extensive documentation of that pending case in New York courts is available publicly online. These documents include a clear description of the rape allegations (documents 1, 3 and 33), proof of the third party payments received by Han (document 13) and the judge’s most recent decision in favour of Han’s petition (document 66). Anyone wishing to read or download those documents can go to this court website, enter “Karma Triyana” as “Party Name’ and then immediately below that line, select “Defendant”, next select “Delaware Supreme Court” as ‘Court(s)’ and then check “All” under ‘Case Status’ and “No” Under ‘Return only Cases with Future Appearances’ and finally click on ‘Find Case(s)’ at bottom.

(Although the court system in British Columbia does not allow public access to documents from cases in family court, the date of new filings in the child support and paternity case in Canada can be monitored here, by entering Dorje for last name and O for first name. The most recent update to the case files was made on May 19, 2022.)

THE OTHER WOMEN

The two women who report having been sexually abused by the Karmapa are Jane Huang of Taiwan and Wu Hang-Yee of Hong Kong. Wu was living as a Buddhist nun in India under the Karmapa’s guidance for much of the time she says she was engaged in a secret sexual relationship with the Karmapa.

(Youtube videos with English-language descriptions of the allegations by Jane Huang and Wu Hang-Yee can be viewed here and here.

More information on their allegations are related here with some of the extensive Chinese-language available on this blog as well). The Karmapa has not denied these allegations.

0:27
today we are going to share our
0:29
experiences about how the kamampa got
0:31
our contacts
0:32
and his first calling and we are sure
0:36
he has done the same trick to many women
0:38
victims
0:43
so since year 2000 there have been a lot
0:46
of
0:46
information about gamapa organ doji
0:51
everywhere from advertisements
0:55
from mass media in china
0:58
and hong kong so i was
1:01
influenced by this information
1:04
even in school textbook it says
1:08
grammable is a bodhisattva very
1:11
compassionate
1:13
and he will lead all sentient beings
1:17
to be free from samsara and attain
1:20
enlightenment
1:21
something like that and
1:24
i was misled to believe that
1:28
he is a buddha and he will
1:32
help all sentient beings to be free from
1:35
suffering
1:36
from samsara and so
1:40
i was so eager to go to india
1:44
and
1:47
i loved my family i loved hong kong
1:51
my job i recited
1:54
and actually i remember
1:58
there was a permanent teacher job offer
2:03
but i declined because i thought
2:07
spiritual journey to enlightenment
2:12
is more important so i left everything
2:16
for india to see garmapan
2:20
and after a couple of
2:23
private audiences with grandmother
2:29
he asked me for my name
2:32
so i he gave me a pen
2:35
and a paper piece of small paper
2:40
um then i wrote my chinese name
2:44
and after that he asked me
2:47
to write down my phone number
2:51
on another paper that he gave me
2:55
then i write
2:58
i wrote that number it's a 10 digits
3:02
indian
3:03
phone number
3:06
actually i shouldn't write that
3:10
number if i realized that
3:16
he was just going to
3:20
play with me manipulate me abuse me
3:23
i didn't know that at that time so i
3:26
gave my phone number and
3:30
the whole thing started
3:38
and the next day after i gave my phone
3:41
number to him
3:43
in the morning at 8 00 am
3:47
it was very early morning he called me
3:50
he made his first phone call to me
3:54
at that time i was in salah college
3:57
i was ready to go to a class
4:01
and then so i
4:04
i said to him i have to go to class
4:09
can you call tomorrow thank you
4:14
then we ended conversation very quickly
4:19
yeah and the next day
4:22
the same time 8 am he called me again
4:28
and he said it's
4:31
better it's the best that you don't
4:35
tell it to others
4:38
then i thought it was
4:42
a maybe a secret uru
4:45
that a guru in vajrayana will use
4:49
to uh for private teaching you know
4:54
so i said
4:57
okay but actually i already told
5:01
to a friend who is from germany
5:06
then he asked me if i have
5:10
internet connection in my computer
5:14
my laptop i said no
5:18
i don't have this kind of connection
5:22
internet connection and then he
5:25
told me to buy an
5:28
internet bar from
5:32
the ramshaw market and
5:35
i followed his instruction
5:40
then i bought the internet bar
5:45
and then he called again
5:48
to me and then he told me to download
5:54
skype i followed him and then
5:57
i downloaded skype
6:01
to my laptop and he
6:06
also told me that his guy
6:09
name is so
6:13
boy.99
6:15
and then i remember this
6:20
and then after that we
6:23
connected so when he made his first
6:27
phone call to me
6:28
i was in this college
6:32
this this college you see this
6:35
this college it is sada college in
6:38
gangara district
6:39
dharamshala india so
6:42
it was around 2011.
6:48
2011 i was insider college
6:52
it's around
6:57
the end of september
7:03
i can't remember the exact date
7:06
that he called me
7:09
for the first time i didn't remember but
7:12
it was around that time
7:20
i met zonzo quintero in 2008 when i went
7:24
to graduate school in the united states
7:26
since then i followed him and viewed him
7:28
as my root group
7:30
which means you listen to his words and
7:32
obey his instructions to get enlightened
7:35
it was not until 2012 did i go to india
7:38
for the first time
7:40
to join those akin to his teachings at
7:41
deer park institute in beer
7:44
and i met the seventeenth kamapa under
7:46
sunset kimchi's
7:47
encouragement and request in fact
7:51
i was never really interested in the
7:53
kama past teachings or his lineage
7:55
because they are so rigid and not modern
7:58
to me
7:58
they are just not speaking to me not if
8:01
to fulfill don't have kids requirement
8:03
and realize the commitment to the guru
8:06
i would never go to the kamapa later in
8:09
october 2014
8:11
when i told my secret relationship to
8:13
zonza kinte
8:14
he soon began instructing me how to
8:17
interact with
8:18
and influence the kamapa i remember in
8:21
total i had three private audiences and
8:24
two public audiences with the kamapa
8:27
and every time it happened during those
8:29
things his pujas or teachings wouldn't
8:31
come up
8:31
always nearby anyway it was the last
8:35
audience in mid-april 2013 that come up
8:38
asked me for my contacts during the
8:41
private audience
8:43
which surprised me big in that audience
8:46
i
8:47
asked him what my next step could be
8:49
because i just quit my job
8:51
and felt uncertain about my future he
8:53
said
8:54
you can work for me i was so stunned and
8:58
found her that wow his holiness asked me
9:02
to help his activities
9:03
i would do my best in fact before this
9:07
john depends had a chinese female
9:08
disciple
9:10
named alex kong kongning from shanghai
9:14
she told me that they come up i had
9:15
asked her to translate the book
9:17
the miraculous 16th kamapa
9:23
this book also at the time i was helping
9:26
kinsey foundation to translate
9:28
communicates
9:29
as a volunteer for a couple of years
9:32
therefore i thought
9:34
it's great if i can help translate books
9:36
for his holiness
9:38
definitely i can do that therefore when
9:41
the commander asked
9:42
me to leave my contacts i gave him my
9:45
email address and mobile phone number
9:46
without hesitation
9:48
i remember i was so nervous that i
9:51
couldn't find a pen and just clutched a
9:53
piece of paper in my hand
9:54
shaking they come up with seemed
9:56
impatient and he handed me a pen
9:59
i jotted down my contacts and then the
10:01
private audiences
10:02
ended anyway it was just a piece of red
10:05
paper didn't look official at all so
10:08
honestly i didn't take it seriously
10:10
because i thought he might just say it
10:12
not really mean it and it would not
10:15
probably
10:16
happen quick maybe take it took
10:20
one or two years however the kamapa
10:23
called me one month later
10:25
at the end of may that year first i got
10:28
a short email
10:29
without any signature just writing i
10:32
am the one you have met at kyoto
10:34
monastery
10:35
the phone number you have left seemed
10:38
wrong
10:39
would you please kindly give me the
10:41
correct one
10:42
i was like who i didn't give any tibetan
10:45
llamas my email i killed a monastery
10:47
because
10:48
what i was thought what i thought was
10:50
those llama
10:51
secretaries or staff very checking
10:55
the email address carefully
10:58
i found it actually named otd
11:01
and suddenly i realized that oh my god
11:03
it's old gentilly gorgeous
11:05
shorthand it's his holiness so i replied
11:08
he
11:08
immediately apologized and wrote my
11:11
mobile phone number again
11:13
and told him how to dial the correct
11:15
country code
11:17
a couple of days later they come up a
11:19
cold at 11
11:20
around midnight that phone call was
11:22
short only lasted for five minutes
11:25
but i clearly remembered our
11:27
conversations
11:28
again when i answered the phone i was
11:31
like
11:31
who would call so late anyway
11:35
i answer i answer it and there came a
11:39
male voice saying it's me
11:42

11:45
realized
11:46
oh man it's his holiness i couldn't help
11:49
shouting your holiness
11:52
in mandarin and i tried to greet him and
11:56
compose
11:56
myself to be prepared to take the job
12:00
he was gonna give me yeah he just
12:02
chatted saying oh this time the phone
12:04
number works
12:05
and i went how have you been your
12:07
holiness he said
12:08
i was okay and you and i was thinking oh
12:12
he must be very busy and have no friends
12:15
and he was a poor guy being detained i
12:18

12:19
talking to him back but i actually
12:22

the monk
12:55
and then they come up and went didn't

frankly
0:21
on my personal experience of being
0:23
sexually abused by the gamabook
0:25
international
0:26
to the public on youtube in the previous
0:30
videos
0:31
you know that i have been deeply
0:33
influenced
0:34
by the advertisements that described
0:37
gamaba
0:38
as a compassionate bodhisattva who can
0:41
lead
0:41
all sentient beings to be free from
0:44
sufferings in samsara
0:46
and i have been defaulting myself to
0:49
believe
0:50
and follow the gamma bar since year 2000
0:54
in 2011
0:57
i left for india to meet gamaba
1:00
and at the end of 2011
1:04
the gamabo made his first skype video
1:07
call to me
1:08
after he got my mobile phone number
1:11
i bought an internet bar to connect to
1:14
the internet
1:15
and his skype account as he told me to
1:18
do so
1:20
in the first skype video call he asked
1:23
how many siblings that i had
1:25
and he asked me if
1:28
i loved my family members my father
1:32
my mother my sister and my
1:35
brothers etc then he told me the number
1:40
of his brothers and sisters i forgot the
1:42
exact
1:43
number of his siblings but there were
1:46
quite a lot of siblings that he had
1:49
then he also asked me if i had a
1:52
boyfriend
1:54
he he said he did not have
1:58
sex before and the only experience
2:01
he had was in the united states of
2:04
america
2:05
that a girl with blonde hair kissed on
2:08
his right cheek
2:10
he told me that then he acted
2:14
in a way that he was not satisfied with
2:16
his
2:17
monk vow of celibacy he fell back
2:21
back on his bed lying down and his
2:24
hands and legs were raised up and
2:27
moving like this then he was like
2:30
rolling his body to the left to the
2:32
right
2:33
to the left to the right back and forth
2:36
in a funny way
2:37
suddenly he stopped doing this from the
2:40
act
2:42
and said it properly and looked at me
2:46
through the skype video um
2:50
and then he looked at the camera and
2:53
asked me can you take off your clothes
2:58
i was shocked at that time
3:02
but based on my faith and respect
3:06
to uh badra yanaguru
3:09
i did not hesitate i just
3:13
followed him i did not refuse
3:16
i followed him and
3:19
unclothed myself then he took off
3:23
all his clothes and
3:26
the gamabo was all naked
3:29
in front of his laptop camera
3:33
and he started masturbating
3:37
masturbating himself he told me to
3:40
use my left hand to touch my female
3:43
organ
3:44
and he asked me to imagine that my hand
3:47
was his hand
3:49
when he was masturbating himself
3:53
he asked me if i felt comfortable
3:57
after the grandmother finished up his
3:59
masturbation
4:00
he ended the skype video call
4:04
when the call was ended i felt quite
4:06
confused
4:08
i asked myself why the gamaba
4:12
masturbated in front of me why the
4:15
kamaba
4:17
masturbated in her in his bedroom
4:20
at guju monastery i didn't know why
4:24
i was also very uneasy
4:28
and worried about him
4:32
i couldn't understand and
4:35
give reasons of what
4:39
he did and why he did that
4:42
i didn't understand at all
4:46
on the next morning i served on the
4:49
internet
4:50
on what the buddha taught concerning the
4:53
behavior of masturbation
4:56
and i found out a buddhist story
4:59
from a book actually it's a
5:02
buddhist scripture which is called
5:05
tamabada
5:08
and sir number
5:12
117 he said
5:14
should the person commit evil let
5:18
him not do it again and again let him
5:21
not
5:21
find pleasure therein for painful
5:25
is the accommodation of evil and
5:29
the story of this verse is about
5:33
a monk who is called sayasaka
5:37
and he had
5:40
a very bad habit of masturbation
5:45
and the buddha the buddha shaka muni
5:48
condemned the conduct
5:52
the misconduct of this monk and
5:55
spoke out vice verse actually
5:59
i wanted to share this verse
6:02
and time about the story to
6:06
the grandmother at that time but i was
6:10
afraid
6:11
i didn't do that i didn't share it with
6:14
the gamava
6:16
since i think i thought he was
6:20
my uh guru
6:23
and he was a vajrayana guru which is
6:26
in a different tradition
6:30
and i also thought it was a religious
6:33
test
6:34
given by a vajrayana guru to
6:37
a disciple so i
6:40
kind of rationalized his misbehavior
6:44
with the doctrines of
6:46
wajrayana so i
6:50
didn't realize that it was a
6:54
sexual harassment at that time i thought
6:57
maybe he was too stressful and
7:01
it was for him to release his pressure
7:06
yes i thought like that later on he has
7:10
kept his secretive relationship with me
7:13
but i still wanted to emulate
7:16
him to be a monastic practitioner to be
7:19
a nun
7:20
therefore in 2012
7:24
i became a nun under a hair cutting
7:28
ceremony that he hosted
7:30
and the gamba cut my hair
7:34
in the mahabodhi temple in bodhiga
7:38
and i became a nun
7:41
but after that the gamaba
7:45
had still masturbated in front of me
7:48
through skype video call
7:50
and he had kept this
7:54
abnormal relationship with me yes
7:58
i had already been a nun like this this
8:01
is
8:02
me the previous me
8:06
um and then in
8:10
2018
8:12
even when i was at nan he told me to go
8:16
to
8:16
america for meeting up and there were
8:18
three times of
8:19
sexual relationships with the gamaba
8:22
two times were taking place in five star
8:26
hotels in manhattan
8:28
which are the mock hotel and baccarat
8:31
hotel
8:32
this bakla hotel is located
8:35
at 28 west
8:39
53rd street new york
8:45
his behaviors towards me were actually
8:48
unethical
8:49
abusive offensive and very manipulative
8:53
but i have tried to rationalize
8:56
his misbehavior from time to time from
8:59
2011 to 2018
9:03
because i was brainwashed in this
9:05
religious field but
9:08
in 2018 i stopped rationalizing his
9:12
misbehavior since
9:14
one of my friends told me he was a big
9:16
cheater
9:17
after i shared my experience with her
9:20
her mind was so clear but my mind was
9:24
not so clear at that time
9:26
she kind of woke me up
9:30
before 2018
9:33
throughout all those years from 2011
9:37
i didn't realize his hidden sex game
9:40
towards women but i know getting mobile
9:44
phone number
9:45
and cyber sex are the first step
9:48
or technique that he used to prey on me
9:51
as one of his female targets
9:56
he was the one who started seducing and
9:59
confusing me to fall into his trap
10:02
i finally realized he was just cheating
10:05
around
10:06
to track women to have sex with him
10:09
and his deception is up initial
10:12
the grandmother is guilty i think he had
10:16
committed a crime also i like to warn
10:20
the
10:20
female public if you are targeted by the
10:24
gamma by he will make
10:26
false promises and track you into an
10:28
emotional trap
10:29
to have sex with him he will not take
10:32
any responsibilities and only use you
10:36
for taking advantages of you
10:39
once you disclose the secretive
10:41
relationship
10:42
to the public he will deny it
10:45
and smear you as something terrible
10:48
and let his people spread
10:52
false information or messages to attack
10:54
you
10:55
or use any other ways to control the
10:58
public
10:59
opinions to cover up the truth
11:02
i would say that gamaba is
11:04
crooked-minded
11:05
self-centered and arbitrary as i
11:09
remembered
11:10
back in 2018 in manhattan
11:13
at the mock hotel he commanded me to
11:17
hide in a wardrobe
11:18
before he came to the room and he
11:21
commanded me to kneel down
11:23
before him after having sex with him
11:28
it made me feel that i was a sex slave
11:32
and i felt i was being humiliated
11:37
i realized that it was only his
11:39
arbitrary behavior that he did
11:42
it based on his personal desire
11:45
rather than reasons i realized
11:48
what he did is not consistent
11:52
with what he taught to the public and of
11:54
course
11:55
not consistent to the buddhist teachings
11:58
he teach people to renounce but
12:01
he is not a renunciate to me
12:05
he is not his holiness he is
12:09
an abuser this is the main reason
12:12
why i loved tibetan buddhism
12:17
i feel that i have the responsibility to
12:19
make it known to the public since
12:21
he is titled as his holiness garmad
12:26
who is a very famous a very famous
12:29
public figure her many female disciples
12:33
followed him and worshiped him
12:37
but i have renounced my home
12:40
my family my well-paid job
12:43
and my permanent teacher job offer
12:46
to follow the kamaba for so many years
12:50
seven to eight years and i have lived
12:53
in india and nepal for around
12:56
six years but he still teach people
12:59
to renounce this word pretending he is a
13:02
holy renunciate
13:04
i could only see hypocrisy in him
13:09
what is outrageous is that after all
13:12
these
13:12
sexual relationships with me he still
13:16
commanded me to be a nun
13:20
i was in a big struggle
13:23
self-doubt and pain inside my heart
13:28
i felt so conflicted in my mind
13:31
i just couldn't take it anymore this has
13:34
to stop
13:36
otherwise if i'm still being a nun
13:38
following the kamaba
13:40
the problem will go on and on
13:43
and on and on and i will be a double
13:46
japanese forever these
13:50
are the books that i had
13:53
at my home you see this
13:56
the heart is normal and
14:00
this one
14:04
and this this is the box i have
14:08
at home and this
14:16
and also this one
14:21
and this one the miraculous
14:24
sxt of karma miracles
14:30
so i will put all these books tomorrow
14:34
into a paper recycling bin
14:40
i would say the biggest mistake i made
14:43
in my life is that
14:44
i have known this person his
14:47
existence has been misleading me
14:51
to make a wrong decision or our wrong
14:54
plan
14:54
in my life if i didn't know
14:57
this person i would have contributed to
15:00
my family and the society in a more
15:03
reasonable and efficient way
15:06
i feel sorry that this person or we
15:09
shall call this person
15:10
little ox is absolutely
15:14
not a bodhisattva nor His Holiness.

4.Karmapa’s Sweet Conspiracy Exposed by WU Hang-yee (# Unmasking Karmapa Video No. 4)



Transcript

hello everyone this is
0:03
unmasking garmabra video number four i'm
0:06
wuhan yi from hong kong
0:08
the second whistleblower who exposed
0:10
karma organ china doj
0:12
sexual misconduct today i'm going to
0:14
continue to share my personal experience
0:17
of being sexually abused
0:19
by the sovereignty of gamapa ogintena
0:22
doji
0:25
in the previous videos i have given out
0:28
an
0:28
analysis on the number one tactic cyber
0:31
sex
0:32
that the gamabo used to prey on victims
0:35
into a secretive relationship so back in
0:39
2011
0:40
after he got my mobile phone number in
0:43
one of the private
0:44
audiences he contacted me and performed
0:47
masturbation in the nerd through skype
0:50
video call
0:51
i was shocked in that very first skype
0:54
video call that he made to me
0:56
but i had still trusted him as my guru
0:59
and a leader
1:00
in my religious belief i did not decline
1:04
receiving his skype video course even
1:06
after the first
1:08
strange skype video call which started
1:10
the elements
1:12
of sexual harassment towards me
1:15
even he has repeated similar online sex
1:18
for
1:18
around 10 times from 2011
1:21
2020 15. i have rationalized
1:25
his misbehavior with the doctrines of
1:28
vajrayana theories
1:30
and so i still continued to worship the
1:33
kamaba as my guru at that time
1:37
until 2018 i gradually realized that he
1:40
is no longer worthy of my trust
1:43
why said i will slowly explain it
1:46
in the upcoming videos afterwards
1:50
in my analysis the gamabo has
1:54
used both soft tactics and
1:57
tough tactics to control people for his
1:59
personal gain
2:00
the soft tactics involved in preparing
2:03
his sexual events towards me include
2:06
flattering silence gift giving
2:09
sweet talk and brainwashing of guru
2:12
worship
2:13
practice whereas the tough tactics he
2:17
used
2:17
are hovering emotional blackmails
2:21
gaslighting blaming threatening
2:24
and dictatorial commands as well as
2:27
cyber bullying
2:29
in today's video of a masking garment
2:32
i'd like to talk about the soft tactics
2:34
he used
2:36
back in 2011 in one of his skype video
2:39
calls
2:40
when i was in my bedroom at sarah
2:42
college in dharamshala
2:44
garamama told me that he thought i had
2:47
great merits
2:48
and a great fortune and he also said
2:51
that
2:51
he and i had a karmic relationship
2:53
coming up from our previous lives
2:56
then i was curious and asked him what
2:59
kind of relationship
3:00
you think was that then he kept a long
3:04
silence looked at me he did not answer
3:07
my question
3:08
and moved on to other topics actually
3:12
now i realize that here he used
3:15
flattering and
3:16
silence as his tactics to calculate me
3:20
in the first stage when he's just got to
3:23
know me
3:24
after that conversation i felt i was
3:28
special because his holiness said that
3:31
he and i had had a karmic connection
3:34
since our past lives i didn't know
3:38
it was his fraudulent statement at that
3:42
time
3:42
and i have fallen deeply into the trap
3:46
that he set up
3:47
right from the beginning to pray on me
3:51
i think i was naive to relate his words
3:54
with my original birth name
3:56
since my family name is wu which is
3:59
exactly the same as the first
4:01
transliterated chinese word of his
4:04
tibetan name
4:05
organ chana doji which is also
4:08
started by the word wu
4:12
you know the sound and the written form
4:15
of the two words are identical
4:17
so i thought maybe it was our destiny to
4:20
have met
4:21
each other in this way based
4:24
on his words i was convinced
4:27
that the karma boy and i had a deep
4:30
karmic connection since our past lives
4:34
now i know it was a perception trap
4:37
but i immaturely believed his words
4:41
at that time as for the complementary
4:45
parts of his words he said
4:49
i was lucky and fortunate and again
4:52
i associated it with my given chinese
4:55
name
4:56
hangi which was given by my father when
4:59
i was born
5:00
my given name carries the lessical
5:02
meaning of lucky person
5:04
or a fortunate person so because of this
5:08
association of
5:09
ideas i was again convinced
5:12
that i was so lucky that my guru wow his
5:16
holiness godmother spent a lot of time
5:19
with me
5:20
on the internet and most importantly i
5:23
thought
5:24
he was going to teach me something about
5:27
vadrayana
5:28
for spiritual development
5:31
or enlightenment in the future
5:36
next tactic gift giving
5:39
this one is very tricky because
5:42
whenever the grammar gave something to
5:44
somebody
5:45
the thing the gift is usually viewed
5:49
as a blessing the first gift he gave me
5:53
is a mala this one
6:01
amala which constitutes a hundred
6:06
and eight counting color beads
6:10
and some gold ornaments and the
6:13
spacer beads are well crafted like an
6:18
antique
6:22
i remember he said when he gave this
6:25
gift to me he said that
6:29
it was what he wore on his neck
6:32
when he was crossing the himalayas from
6:35
tibet to
6:36
india then i thought
6:39
it was a precious gift which was full of
6:42
the blessings of my guru
6:44
and so i thought it was special
6:48
and also he emphasized that the mala is
6:51
the
6:52
only mother that he brought femti back
6:55
to
6:55
india this is what he stressed on
6:58
at that time and so i believed
7:02
it was precious i thought maybe it is a
7:05
pledge of this special relationship
7:08
i will talk about this smaller story in
7:11
another
7:12
video in more details but what i want to
7:15
say here today
7:16
is that he usually give a gift for a
7:18
reason
7:19
the gift is not free in the sense that
7:22
he give it away
7:23
in order to get other things such as
7:25
attention
7:26
sex and exchange of silence
7:31
and next tactic is sweet talk
7:35
in the skype video course in 2011
7:38
the grammar said to me that he missed me
7:42
in the morning
7:43
missed me in the afternoon and missed me
7:46
in the evening when i asked him what
7:50
the relationship between us was
7:53
he told me that i was his girlfriend
7:56
on the morning of the first day of the
7:59
chinese new year in 2012
8:01
i remember in the sky video called he
8:04
held his palms together
8:06
and he was being serious sitting
8:08
straight and he said that
8:10
said to me i hope i will be with you
8:13
forever
8:15
but i was so confused
8:19
and i always remembered uh
8:22
what he said in that skype video call
8:27
and i also remember in around 2016
8:32
he said to me on phone love you forever
8:36
yes this is the sweet talk tactic
8:39
used and usually he sent an
8:43
emoji of teddy bear to me to represent
8:46
us with hug friendly
8:48
this is also i think this is
8:51
this also belongs to the sweet
8:55
type of talk
8:58
in 2018 when i told him i wanted to
9:02
end this painful and
9:05
abnormal relationship he caused me back
9:09
into the toxic relationship through a
9:12
skype voice message saying i will treat
9:15
you well
9:19
yes his original words are in mandarin
9:24
if you know mandarin you can listen to
9:26
it and see if you understand
9:28
the semantic meaning of those words
9:32
and its connotations
9:45
so you see now when i listen to it again
9:49
i feel it's like pulling a pet into his
9:52
cage very softly peacefully and
9:56
easily you know for further
10:00
future abuse this is one of the examples
10:04
of his sweet talk
10:06
but in his voice recording you may
10:09
notice that
10:10
he told me not to talk too much actually
10:13
i wrote a lot to him because he never
10:17
he never talked with me seriously about
10:21
his personal problem
10:23
he has been just brushing me off all the
10:26
time
10:26
so as to continue his abuse game further
10:32
so in the next video i will move on to
10:35
talk about the tough
10:36
tactics that the gama used to control
10:39
people
10:40
it takes me nine years of time to
10:42
conclude
10:43

May 5, 2021

hello everyone this is
0:07
unmasking gala maba video number five
0:10
i'm wuhan you from hong kong
0:12
the second whistleblower who exposed
0:14
gala mobile
0:15
sexual misconduct today i'm going to
0:18
continue to share
0:19
my personal experience of being sexually
0:21
abused
0:22
by the seventieth gamapa organ tena doji
0:29
in the last video i have exposed the
0:31
sweet
0:32
secret techniques that akamaba used to
0:35
trick
0:35
and manipulate me into an apparently
0:38
romantic relationship
0:40
for an actual emotional abuse and an
0:43
easier further sexual abuse
0:47
after all it is all based on his abuse
0:50
of his position of authority
0:56
now before i move on to open up the
0:58
tough tactics that he used to manipulate
1:01
women
1:02
i'd like to talk about one special soft
1:04
tactic that the gamma by used
1:07
this soft tactic is the teaching of guru
1:10
worship practice which is very crucial
1:13
for his sexual abuse towards me because
1:16
it was the tool that
1:18
made his deception and sexual abuse
1:20
easier
1:21
especially when a female victim is pious
1:24
in her religious belief and very devoted
1:27
to him as her guru
1:31
the karma has always given a lot of
1:34
teachings on the topic of faith and
1:36
devotion
1:37
in particular the topics regarding the
1:39
devotion
1:40
and offering to a guru i think he has
1:43
been brainwashing
1:45
his disciples and then i brainwashed
1:48
myself
1:49
with his teachings in this religious
1:51
field that i have long been
1:52
immersed in i regarded the brainwashing
1:56
of the teachings of guru worship
1:57
practice
1:58
as one of the soft tactics that the
2:00
gamapad used
2:01
to control people for his personal gain
2:04
i was deeply influenced by the guru
2:07
devotion
2:07
theories and also in the general
2:10
principles of the guru-worship practice
2:12
in vajrayana lineage
2:14
it is concerned with that the disciples
2:17
have to admire and make the guru happy
2:20
with
2:20
faith and devotion and that the
2:23
disciples
2:24
have to keep the samaya vow
2:27
to keep the master disciple relationship
2:30
as a secret
2:33
in the culture of secrecy the karma can
2:36
almost do everything secretly including
2:38
cyber sex
2:39
back in 2011 during the cyber sex that
2:43
the gamabo initiated
2:44
in one of the sky video calls the
2:47
garmapa asked me to use the laptop
2:49
camera
2:50
to zoom in to my female organ for him to
2:52
take a look at
2:54
i followed his idea just because he was
2:57
my guru
2:58
i found he liked making online sex very
3:01
much
3:02
i knew that was the way i could please
3:05
my guru
3:07
then in 2012 the grandmother started to
3:10
ask me to take private pictures
3:12
and so i sent my pictures to him later
3:15
i found out he liked nude pictures very
3:18
much
3:19
so i took some nude pictures and offered
3:22
it to him
3:23
as an offering to my guru
3:26
since i was a follower of the guru
3:28
devotion theory of the vajrayana lineage
3:31
at that time
3:32
i had been trying my best to please my
3:35
guru with his favorite things
3:38
but when i was in the nunnery busy with
3:40
my preparation
3:42
and memorization for the exams i was
3:45
really tired of his special request for
3:47
sex
3:48
in the skype video call i remember in
3:51
2015
3:52
when i was in my bedroom at trungodara
3:55
abi
3:55
at kathmandu in nepal in one of the sky
3:58
video calls that he made
4:00
to me he asked me to show my breasts
4:03
through the laptop camera
4:05
at that time i was really tired under
4:07
the pressure of my shelter studies
4:09
and so i was reluctant to obey his
4:12
instruction
4:13
and so i honestly expressed my
4:15
unwillingness to the garmaba
4:18
and then he hung up that that skype
4:20
video called very abruptly
4:22
and rudely without ending the call
4:25
nicely that night
4:26
i felt very upset with that i didn't
4:30
realize it was an
4:31
emotional blackmail at that time
4:34
i just thought what i did has been
4:37
making my guru angry
4:39
i was very afraid of losing my guru so
4:42
later
4:43
i promised to come about that i would
4:45
send
4:46
plenty of an abundant of my nude
4:48
pictures to him
4:50
and i remembered i took
4:53
a lot of private photos to him after the
4:56
shadow examination
4:58
then in august 2015 there was a
5:01
conversation on phone and skype
5:04
i asked him why didn't pick up my phone
5:07
calls
5:07
he blamed me and said to me you didn't
5:10
give me
5:12
i was threatened and frightened of
5:14
losing my guru
5:15
and so i surrendered and i said
5:19
i offer you then he told me to turn off
5:22
the light
5:23
and he initiated and conducted
5:27
a phong sex again then i know that
5:31
if i want to contact my guru i have to
5:34
offer him sex and that was that
5:38
no sex no talk in 2017
5:42
he commanded me to go to bodhi gaya for
5:44
gagy munlam
5:46
and i joined the dharma programs over
5:49
there
5:50
and he gave teachings on the four
5:53
section guru yoga practice
5:55
to the public and i got these texts
6:02
this text the fourth section guru yoga
6:06
practice
6:07
the original text is in tibetan
6:10
previously i didn't realize
6:11
it was his tactic to control people
6:15
i practiced the four section guru yoga
6:17
for almost a year since 2017.
6:20
and i could memorize and recite the text
6:23
because
6:23
i read it once or twice or several times
6:26
each day for almost a year
6:29
so the guru yoga practice influenced me
6:31
a lot
6:32
but of course i finally quitted
6:35
practicing it because i found
6:37
my guru was only a cheater an abuser
6:40
and a dictator who commanded me to kneel
6:42
down
6:43
before him even after the sexual offense
6:46
in order to provide more references i'm
6:49
going to quote
6:50
10 lines of this text for section guru
6:53
yoga supplication in english
6:55
you may better understand how i went
6:57
through spiritually
6:59
and what was the source that i relied on
7:02
to rationalize the misbehaviors of the
7:05
karma
7:07
open quilt all knowing one karma by keno
7:12
for the sake of boundless beings i offer
7:15
you
7:16
right now my body speech mind and virtue
7:19
i supplicate the exhorted glorious guru
7:23
bless me to see whatever you do as
7:25
perfect
7:26
bless me to hold whatever you say as
7:29
true
7:30
bless me that our minds may merge as one
7:33
birth after birth life after life bless
7:36
me to never cease performing actions
7:38
that please the exalted glorious guru
7:41
end quote so you see
7:45
this is how i brainwashed myself by
7:47
repeating the guru worships application
7:50
i always repeated these lines in my head
7:54
especially in 2018 when i was
7:57
sexually abused or emotionally abused
8:02
by the gamabo so whatever the kamaba did
8:05
or said
8:05
i accepted them as a blessing
8:08
i think it is the reason why
8:12
the first sexual abuse of the karma
8:15
towards me
8:16
could occur so easily everything
8:19
happened
8:20
when i was at a stage of confusion
8:23
admiration
8:24
reliance to my guru and the mixed
8:27
emotion of being afraid of losing my
8:29
guru
8:30
and the sexual relationship happened
8:32
especially under
8:34
his tough tactics such as hovering
8:37
blaming
8:37
and threatening and he really enjoys so
8:41
much
8:41
when i suffer it's really inhuman
8:45
he doesn't care other people what he
8:47
cares
8:48
is himself he took his time
8:51
to command me to go to america to hide
8:54
in wardrobe
8:55
and hide in his toilet room and he took
8:58
his time to sexually and
9:00
emotionally abuse me i would say
9:04
enough is enough you know i'm really
9:07
sick of him
9:08
trying to make me feel inferior he was
9:12
just
9:12
stepping on human dignity
9:17
actually garmapa is supposed to be a
9:19
person who reincarnated for the past
9:21
900 years as a compassionate bodhisattva
9:24
who saved all the beings but after all
9:27
the previous interactions that i
9:29
experienced with the gamaba
9:31
i realized that i can't trust him
9:34
anymore
9:34
because it is only a toxic master slave
9:38
relationship by the end of the dates
9:40
i can't see the reasons why i have to
9:43
please him
9:44
when he has already been using my trust
9:46
for himself
9:48
for his personal pleasures for his
9:50
satisfaction of sexual desires
9:53
or for his satisfaction of personal
9:55
desires to control
9:57
luck is that now i have quitted
9:59
practicing the guru worship
10:01
finally i realized that gamapa basically
10:04
just
10:05
used his position of authority
10:08
to accomplish the sexual act
10:12
he was just taking advantages of the
10:14
trust that i have long deposited in him
10:17
because he has been the leader in my
10:20
religious belief
10:22
and because there was a relationship of
10:24
superiority
10:25
and inequality to be honest
10:29
i really wish i could have been well
10:32
informed by somebody about the true face
10:35
of the gamabo earlier in 2011
10:38
if i were fully informed at an earlier
10:41
time
10:42
i would have my own plan for my life
10:46
and then i would not mess up my life by
10:49
trusting him
10:50
meeting him emulating him being a nun
10:53
and i will not be deceived
10:56
commended and manipulated for that long
10:59
as if i was his puppet and also
11:02
i would not waste all those years of my
11:04
life
11:05
to listen to this so-called his holiness
11:07
karma ba
11:09
anyway i hope this useful information
11:12
can reach
11:13
someone who needs to be informed
11:16
i don't care how people comment on me
11:19
what i care is the welfare of the future
11:23
female victims in the next video
11:26
i will talk about the tough tactics that
11:29
the gamabo used to control people

Healing Our Sanghas: A safe space to connect and together address the allegations of abuse by the Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje.
Created by a group of Karma Kagyu practitioners in association with Buddhist studies scholars.

NOTICE: THIS WORK MAY BE PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT

YOU ARE REQUIRED TO READ THE COPYRIGHT NOTICE AT THIS LINK BEFORE YOU READ THE FOLLOWING WORK, THAT IS AVAILABLE SOLELY FOR PRIVATE STUDY, SCHOLARSHIP OR RESEARCH PURSUANT TO 17 U.S.C. SECTION 107 AND 108. IN THE EVENT THAT THE LIBRARY DETERMINES THAT UNLAWFUL COPYING OF THIS WORK HAS OCCURRED, THE LIBRARY HAS THE RIGHT TO BLOCK THE I.P. ADDRESS AT WHICH THE UNLAWFUL COPYING APPEARED TO HAVE OCCURRED. THANK YOU FOR RESPECTING THE RIGHTS OF COPYRIGHT OWNERS.


Over a year has passed since news emerged of multiple allegations of sexual abuse against the 17th Karmapa. One woman has come forward to say the Karmapa fathered her child and that the sexual contact was not consensual. Legal proceedings were filed against the Karmapa for child support in Canada and against Karma Triyana Dharmachakra (the Karmapa’s North American headquarters) in New York based on allegations of rape. The Karmapa has not publicly denied or responded to any of the allegations. Buddhist leaders have yet to offer the guidance that our communities need.

This news has had far-reaching and sometimes traumatic effects on our Dharma communities and on our practice. The cloak of silence that has fallen has left most of us to process in private. But the effects of the allegations are not merely private and individual. They are also collective. We believe that the very possibility of creating healthy Dharma communities depends on our finding our voice and speaking into the silence.

We created this site as an opportunity to speak and be heard on a global map. We aspire to offer it as a safe space where we can come together, help one another begin to heal our own pain and our fragmented communities, and respond wisely and compassionately. This site offers an interactive map, an anonymous tool to share your experiences, and a timeline. With these tools, anyone can express—anonymously—their experiences in the wake of the allegations and the silence surrounding them.

Explore the Map

The allegations have had ripple effects across the globe. Here we can find our own voices, bear witness to others' voices and face this trauma together. When reading others’ testimonies, we invite you to bear witness to their experiences with empathy and respect.

Click on the dots to view others' voices. (You can add your own in the “Add Your Voice” section below.) Locations are likely to have more than one testimony. For locations with more than one testimony, please use the arrows at the top of the testimony to move between stories.

A YELLOW CIRCLE will automatically appear to mark the location of a contribution. All contributions are reviewed before publishing on the map. A BLUE BORDER + YELLOW CIRCLE will appear when a contribution has been published.

Add Your Voice

Here is where you can add your voice to the map or just answer some yes-or-no questions. If you have been affected in any way by the allegations against the Karmapa, you are welcome to participate. You do not need to be a practitioner in his lineage.

We want you to feel safe and free to share your experiences and aspirations. All contributions are completely anonymous. We do not collect email addresses, IP addresses, or any other data. You do need to choose a place on the map, but you can locate yourself by city, state or province, or even just a country or continent. To further protect your identity, you can pick where you are now, where you are from, or any place you have been at any point since you were first impacted by the allegations. No one will be able to comment on what you write on this site. We will not censor or edit contributions.

How were you affected?

Please note: Contributions that include rebuttals, harsh speech, or criticism of others’ testimonies will not be published. Since Healing Our Sanghas is not collecting any contact information, we will not be able to reach out to you to ask you to make changes. Instead, text that violates this will simply not be shared on the map. We regret that we are also unable to post responses that address allegations of abuse by other named teachers. We realize there is a real need for a place for survivors to report abuse, but for legal reasons we cannot offer that service here.

For technical issues, email admin@healingoursanghas.org . Unfortunately, we will not be able to provide information or respond to individual comments.

Timeline of Allegations

The timeline contains allegations of abuse and harm, including images of the Karmapa. Contents may be triggering; prioritize your health and take care of your heart.

Escapes: December 28, 1999

He appeals the decision and loses. Media coverage in Mandarin can be found here , here , and here . Huang shares copies of the court decision here .

Legal Action Against KTD: March 23, 2022
The international law firm of McAllister Olivarius, representing Vikki Han, initiates legal action against Karma Triyana Dharmachakra. The filings in New York State are based on the alleged rape by the Karmapa in 2017. (All court documents are public and can be viewed here by entering “Karma Triyana” as “Party Name’, then right below that, selecting “Defendant,” and then choosing as the ‘Court(s)’ “Delaware Supreme Court,” then checking “All” under ‘Case Status’ and “No” Under ‘Return only Cases with Future Appearances’ and then clicking on ‘Find Case(s).’) Documents 1, 3, and 33 detail the rape allegations. Document 13 provides proof of financial payments to Han, and documents 66 and 67 include the judge’s latest decision in favor of Han.

DNA Test Said To Confirm Paternity: July 7, 2022
An unconfirmed report states that a DNA test in January 2022 has proven that the Karmapa fathered Vikki Han’s child. A trial date of July 2022 is postponed, the report says, at the request of the Karmapa’s lawyers. "The postponement gives time for the two parties to come to a settlement out of court. Such an out-of-court settlement would allow the records of the paternity test to remain sealed.”

DNA Test Confirms Karmapa Fathered a Child, Source Says
GUEST POST by VETTED CONTRIBUTOR A court-mandated paternity test has proven conclusively that the 17th Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje fathered a child with a woman, according to a source close to the Karmapa. The woman, Vikki Han, alleges that the sex was non-consensual and she has engaged a lawyer for a civil rape case.

Present Day
The Karmapa has yet to respond publicly to any of these allegations. The multiple lawsuits described above are expected to settle privately out of court, in which case court records would not be made public. To date, virtually no Buddhist communities are addressing the situation openly.

Who We Are
We are a group of practitioners from diverse Karma Kagyu centers and communities, in association with Buddhist studies scholars.

The group of practitioners who initiated this project includes people who have completed the traditional three-year, three-month retreat, and consists of both lay and monastic practitioners. We come from different Karma Kagyu centers and communities, and are all connected to various Karma Kagyu teachers. This project is also associated with Ann Gleig (University of Central Florida) and Amy Langenberg (Eckerd College), scholars who cover Buddhist communities as part of the Religion and Sexual Abuse Project .

The practitioners in our group have decided to remain anonymous. This site and the map are aimed at offering conditions where everyone can be comfortable speaking without fear of reprisals. Some of us have already experienced adverse consequences as a result of raising the topic of the allegations in much smaller arenas. At this point, we want to conserve our emotional energy for our own processing of this situation, which is ongoing, and for conversations where we can make positive contributions rather than simply defend ourselves. For the record, none of us have any ties whatsoever to the Chinese government.

We were motivated to create this site because we all care deeply about how the Dharma is transmitted and about its prospects for the future, and out of concern for the suffering that we observe as a result of the allegations and the silence.
