And he was based in Romania at the time and we were talking online and he started to talk about his spiritual master or his spiritual guide.

And then he sent me links and gave me his name, which is Gregorian Bivalaru.

And it immediately raised red flags for me because he said he's in hiding.

He's wanted by Interpol.

But, you know, look what happened to Jesus.

So certainly not initially.

That was something that came into my awareness later on.

And it didn't all happen at once.

It was more of an inkling or a suspicion.

And then it just became more and more clear as time went on.

But my initial suspicions...

When I did some reading up on him online, I sort of wondered about it.

And then I spoke to a friend who had nothing to do with the school.

She was completely external of the school, studying psychology, really valued her opinion.

And I said, does this look strange, suspicious to you?

What do you think?

And she looked it up and she goes, oh, it kind of looks like a human rights issue.

It looks like he was persecuted.

It all kind of, you know, seems okay to me.

And I was like, yeah, good.
