Last week's
about a lawsuit against the Dahn Yoga organization, a
group that SFR
, generated a goodly number of comments on our website. It looks like an
campaign, judging by the pseudonyms and the striking similarity of the comments.
Many not only blame the messenger (that would be SFR), but also the woman who alleges she was sexually assaulted by Dahn Yoga founder Ilchi Lee, whom a follower describes as "the most giving considerate and hard working person I have ever met."
It's not all a love-fest, though. This comment, by a "Dahn Instructor," suggests that Lee's accuser just wants attention:
For the record, the reason newspapers don't wait to report until "AFTER the trial" is because hundreds of years of legal practice in countries around the world has led to the expectation that trials will be public events. The reason people got so upset about Guantanamo Bay was that the military commissions there were closed to the public and thus, prone to abuse.
This is Civics 101, folks, which must not be included in
courses.
Others worry about the harm to Ilchi Lee's reputation:
More irresponsible would be to swallow Dahn Yoga's sales pitch as a kind of miracle cure—as one commenter writes, "so much cheaper then paying at hospital!"
In any event, the response was enough to warrant a reply. And, it seemed worthwhile to post a copy of the complaint, so anyone who's curious can read exactly what's been alleged against Dahn.
