I Married a Yoga Guru Con Man
I Married a Yoga Guru Con Man
Harvard graduate Joelle Tamraz, was young, enthusiastic and a perfect target for a fake yoga guru. Seeking enlightenment, purpose and peace, she came across a man who swept her off her feet and used spiritual manipulation to eventually exploit her and her family out of thousands of dollars. He told wild stories of channelling and inhabiting…

Once i was interested in yoga and i beleive that spirituality is more important than religion..i practiced for 4 years, went to Rishakesh, India for the yogi festival held every year in march where all gurus like Mojdi and other famous gurus re coming with their followers and music bands to preach their teachings sanscara i think..i used to like one Portuguese guru, he used to be calm and more likable for me so i used to go to his morning lessons , and one day i was seating there among all those 'awaking ' people and realised that i dont need to go so far to find my inner strength, i can do it seating on whenever i am even in my village in Kazakhstan! It was clear for me , so since i came back i stoped to goignt o yoga classes..now i realise i have to go into my islam teachings ..
There is a big difference between a really old person who is working part time in a museum to educate people about what their culture past and present is like while he is being a faithful married man and a cult leader who is leaving their dead work rotten fruits behind them wherever they go. So called artificial 'intelligence' wouldn't be able to tell the difference. We can if we take as much time needed to do so. We need to believe someone is controlling the first time they have acted controlling towards us or ended up in a rage fit right in front of us regardless if during their rage they only destroyed something they owned at the time instead of selling it or giving it away.
Very similar to many New Age to Jesus testimonies. It was not energy. He was / is working for Satan and the demonic Kingdom. Praise God for saving you out of this.
Malignant narcissists use charm to disarm. Trusting the untrustworthy & doubting your own reality is the most dangerous part of being involved with them; gaslightling 101.
I'm sorry to be blunt. I get that westerners in general are attracted to eastern philosophies of spirituality, and in some cases these things can help you mentally like to improve focus and slow down from the busy overwhelming lifestyle. But there are none that can give you something supernatural or cosmic or whatever the heck kinda buzzwordy enlightenment thing that you hope to achieve through following them. If you wanna learn this stuff you can but just know that you're gonna be reading some words written in an old language and that's just about it. And especially be aware of people who say that they have achieved this enlightenment because the chances are you're gonna get scammed or worse. Most native people who are educated know that these things are absolute shams which is kind of why they target westerners who has no idea about them. š
So AI keeps putting this vid on my browser. This woman has no right and looks like a dam fool to speak about her abusive husband if she signed a contract showing her agreement to a lawful marriage with the man. Dear AI please stop putting this stupid ladyās absurd BS on my browser. Iām not into playing any victimization role for any man I have signed a lawful marriage agreement with. Marriage is a real loving thing or I don't contract it. And I would actually deserve the abuse I suffered if I were stupid enough to speak on YT for anyone to see how stupid I was for marrying the joker and then complaining about after 18 years of marriage- Jesus Christ what a dumb ass I would have to be.
But I will say this much, any man I have not had a lawful marriage agreement wherein a duly signed marriage contract exists in law, by law has to stay tf away from any inheritance or dowry I may have too btw, and that includes any of the 50 commercial States I ever had any marriage license thru btw too- I sure af never married any God forsaken State… according to the laws of contract anyway.
Great video @ thank you for the awareness ā¤
Unfortunately every Guru after Yeshua/Jesus Christ is dangerous
Thank you @joelle for sharing your incredible life story. OMG this "fake" guy had it all planned out! Thank you @Shelise for being an amicable host. I am a new subscriber. Love from Singapore / Goa, India. PS:: Give credit to YouTube for recommending your channel.
Levitation?š®
You can say all you want about how wrong and manipulative he was but how much ownership do you have in all this? You knew he was convicted of molesting young girls and yet you consulted a lawyer on behalf of this pedophile. Was your intentions to possibly bring him back to the US? I can't even finish this video … gullible! 18 years …come on.

I've made countless mistakes getting too attached with western men and no cult was needed for me to feel used, vexed of spirit, lied to, manipulated and whatever else she feels. But her story may help thin out false seekers for real masters who can do much benefit for a true seeker of god-realization. Isn't that what every seeker of eastern practice is looking for? Vedanta, Moksha, Mukta?
Interesting
Shelise, you are just such an awesome host, such a warm person, I love your content so much!
It is so sad that predators ,who disguised as spiritual teachers has harmed and still harming so many souls. What surprises me is so many of these victims are well educated, mature men und women and this shows that these victims need to realize also their responsibilities and lacking common senses and analytical thinking into action.
The power of brainwashing
She did'nt meet a Guru, she met the typical tantrist. Such, can hardly control their own acts at the astral level – as they're identifying with the body-mind – , much less teach/assist anyone in realizing their true nature, the eternal, divine Atma. A true Guru, will have certain, positive traits – not a bunch of physical desires
Is it the health nut guy
Another out of wedlock shit show with a social security number for drug money
most gurus are scammers by day
A con guru will give you the same vibes as Harvey Weinstein, bill gates, bill Clinton etc.
"Hopping Lover" ha ha ha lol !!
Thank you for sharing your experience, we need to raise more awareness about these fake yogees.
Only do meditation online…. Never never meet up in person…
Yoga is a cult. I was luck to have a Christian Indian Physio therapist who told to stay away from Yoga. So grateful.
Thank you for sharing let those who have ears hear.
DONT USE THE TERM YOGA AND GURU SO RANDOMLY. THERE ARE SO MANY CHURCH PASTORS, FATHERS, IMAMS AND MEN IN CLERGY WHO ARE PEDOPHILES. AND RAPISTS. THESE ARE FAKE TEACHERS. NOT YOGIS OR GURUS. THESE TERMS ARE SACRED . AND IT IS NOT B&w. there are real teachers who get smeared by campaigns. so separating the correct from wrong is important instead of going by hearsay. if the person was really fake then THERE ARE NOT TO BE CALLED GURUS OR YOGIS. YOGA IS AN ANCIENT SYSTEM. JUST LIKE QUACK DOCTORS THERE COULD BE QUACK TEACHERS. YOU DONT STOP USING MEDICAL SERIVCE DO YOU?
A true yogi will only teach and give to the world and not ask for money. So if any guru asks for money then you know he is attacked to desires and not a true yogi. So thatās a big clue. There are very few true gurus and those good once have written there experience for no gains for themselves and only for humanity and left it for the well being of humanity.
"A cocoon of madness"
The man sounds like a nutcase, a real nutter.
This guy is 1000% NPD case and there are a few in the spiritual community!!! And everythin she says is classic grandiose NPD manipulation. The magical thinking in ourselves is a pre-desposition for the whole manipulation game. Most of them feel destroyed after and stuck in it for many many years like this lady for 20 years, the younger u r. The easier coz the knowledge n experience is so little and they very well are aware of it !!!! If u meet an NPD, please run. There is no changing them no matter who u become. They're slave to their patterns unfortunately.
why do people follow other people? trust no one
THE GURUS DONT HOLD THE POWER; YOU GIVE THEM THE POWER
Such an important subject. Thank you so much for sharing your story
You don't learn yoga powers the way she says (flying, getting small, large etc.) in a 2 weeks course and then they give you a badge! That's just ridiculous. Even the most skilled yoginis and sadhus get their powers after many, many years of practice and meditation and is not something they share with New Age obsessed Westerners. She was unfortunately one of the many victims of this kind of malignant narcisists, like all this kink of fake gurus are. Anyway, these con artists, these fake gurus (Sad Guru is one of them) are thriving because of the naive Westerners ready to part with their money and their lives.
I thought wow 1h 36 minutes Iām never finishing this. But I did and Iām so glad I did . Thank you so much for sharing this story
