Case No. 39/2018: Tom B. Clark

NOTIFICATION to Monash University

Dear Monash University, hereby, on February 26, 2018, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee notifies you that Tom B. Clark has been found Responsible for Fraud and Scam, since it has been proven that this individual fraudulently alleged to have graduated from Maitriyana Buddhist University with a PhD in Buddhist Psychology and Mindfulness, even though he was never a student of this school. Even in some web pages Tom B. Clark has stated that he has graduated of this same PhD degree in Buddhist Psychology at Monash University.

Because the International Buddhist Ethics Committee is a solidarity organization protecting and supervising the world's educational system, it is confirmed that Tom B. Clark could be unduly and illegally using the name of your University, by fraudulently claiming to be graduated in this Australian institution.

Although there are few possibilities, in the event that Tom B. Clark is indeed a professional graduate of Monash University, it is requested to cancel any title or certificate that this individual may possesses, since he has committed one of the worst academic frauds that exist.

Case No.  24/2017: Supreme Tribunal of Justice (TSJ) of Venezuela & President Maduro

NOTIFICATION to Peru and Colombia

On February 21, 2018, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee & Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights is communicating with the government of Peru as a result of its prohibition concerning the visit of Venezuelan Dictator Maduro to the country for the eighth Summit of the Americas, declaring him an unwelcome person in Peru, since Dictator Maduro has broken the political dialogue with the Venezuelan opposition and has called elections fraudulently, prohibiting the free participation of the opposition coalition Mesa de la Unidad Democratica (MUD) within the democratic process. Thus, the Peruvian government of Pedro Pablo Kuczynski has withdrawn his invitation to the Venezuelan Dictator Nicolás Maduro.

The International Buddhist Ethics Committee & Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights considers that clearly, in Venezuela, one of the worst humanitarian catastrophes in the world is occurring, even though this is denied by Dictator Maduro, because there is ample evidence that a mass exodus of refugees which is comparable to the exoduses recorded in Syria and Myanmar is happening in Venezuela. According to international data, a tenth of the Venezuelan population would have left the country, being a number that is increasing day by day. In fact, according to international experts in immigration, more than 1 million Venezuelan refugees have fled to Colombia in the last 2 years due to lack of food, medicine, security and democracy in Venezuela. For this reason, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee & Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights requests the Colombian government to grant the civil status of refugees to the one million Venezuelans who are fleeing from a humanitarian catastrophe as serious as that of Syria and Myanmar, ensuring full respect for human rights.

Resolution on International Criminal Court (ICC)

Case 24-2017: Supreme Tribunal of Justice (TSJ) of Venezuela & President Maduro

Resolution on International Criminal Court (ICC)

February, 2018

The International Buddhist Ethics Committee and Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights,

Recalling the principles of Buddhist Law and the International Human Rights Law, such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights adopted by the UN and the Buddhist Convention on Human Rights adopted by the United Buddhist Nations Organization;

Considering that on April 12, 2017 the Supreme Tribunal of Justice (TSJ) of Venezuela was sentenced for the crimes of Violation of the Constitutional Democratic State of Law and Violation of the International Human Rights Law;

Reaffirming the Legal Opinion of May 4, 2017 against President Maduro of Venezuela on charges of Coup d'état and Crimes against humanity;

Aware that in September 2017 the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Zeid Ra'ad al-Hussein, coincided with the Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights and publicly requested to initiate an international legal case against Venezuela for crimes against humanity in the context of police forces' abuses against civilian political demonstrators, including crimes such as arbitrary detentions, excessive use of force and torture;

Deploring the fact that Venezuela is one of the members of UN Human Rights Council, because its presence is an affront against the principles by which the UN was created, so that Venezuela should be expelled as a member, such as was pointed out by former Venezuelan ambassador Diego Arria and also by Hillel Neuer, director of UN Watch;

Taking into consideration that the former Venezuelan ambassador, Diego Arria, has also stated that the International Criminal Court (ICC) should judge Venezuela for crimes against humanity, in addition to considering the murders of civilians as perverse, cruel and criminal acts that are part of a widespread and systematic plan of excessive force against political demonstrations, including the arbitrary detention of opponents, inhumane treatment and torture;

Examining the thousands of arbitrary detentions, many of them children, and the hundreds of extrajudicial killings, within a widespread and systematic use of excessive violence that also includes a tactical and strategic plan of homicides, imprisonment, torture and sexual abuse, according to the Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS), they constitute crimes against humanity;

Concerned enormously by the fact that in the US justice system there are proofs that the Venezuelan government of President Maduro, together with the high officials Tarek El Aissami, Maikel Moreno, Diosdado Cabello, Vladimir Padrino and Néstor Reverol, would be conforming a transnational criminal organization dedicated to drug trafficking;

Repudiating the fact that Pope Francis I has confirmed that he has always spoken loudly and clearly, and that the Vatican has done much for the Venezuelan government;

Noting that President Maduro has been denounced before the International Criminal Court (ICC) by the former Prosecutor general of Venezuela, Luisa Ortega Díaz, accusing him of crimes against humanity for carrying out a social cleansing plan between the years 2015 to 2017, which included crimes of unofficial executions, torture and incarcerations, being a systematic and widespread attack against the civilian population;

Denouncing before international justice that the former prosecutor general of Venezuela, Luisa Ortega Díaz, presented more than 1000 evidentiary elements to the ICC on the accusation of crimes against humanity committed by the Venezuelan government of President Maduro, existing evidence of medical, psychiatric and technical examinations and identifications, in addition to interviews with victims, where more than 8 thousand deaths and 17 thousand arbitrary arrests can be verified;

Repudiating the inaction of the International Criminal Court (ICC) during the last 4 years, since the complaint of crimes against humanity carried out by the former Prosecutor Ortega against President Maduro is the fourth complaint filed before such court, especially taking into account the complaint of the 2014 presented by two hundred legislators from eight Latin American countries who demanded the ICC to investigate President Maduro for crimes against humanity against peaceful and unarmed demonstrators;

Solemly establishing that it is good news that in 2018 the prosecutor Fatou Bensouda of the ICC has decided to open a preliminary examination on human rights violations committed by the dictatorship of Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela, especially because it is a first step to comply with the requirement ruled by the Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights in May 2017, when it was manifested: “It is required that Fatou Bensouda, Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), begins to work adequately in the case of Venezuela and promptly bring President Maduro before international justice for "Crimes against humanity", putting on record that indifference or unwarranted delay to give justice to these crimes constitutes an act of complicity by omission”;

1.       Expresses that it is not enough to simply open a preliminary examination on abuses in Venezuela, since this was previously done by the very UN, by hundreds of Latin American legislators and by Venezuelan jurists, who have already studied, analyzed and presented the relevant evidence.

2.      Declares that when health and integrity of millions of lives is involved, preliminary investigations lasting several years should not be carried out, but full and prompt investigations must be carried out in order to proceed with a fair and adequate trial, respecting the human right to justice and the Truth of the thousands of victims, in addition to trying to prevent that conflicts and the number of deaths grow.

3.      Deplores the civil-military regime of President Maduro as illegal, by considering it a transnational criminal organization.

4.     Confirms that the decision of the European Parliament to include President Maduro of Venezuela in the sanctions imposed by the European Union is adequate.

5.      Congratulates the Government of Canada for imposing sanctions on President Maduro of Venezuela, and on 18 other senior officials, for their acts of corruption and serious violations of International Human Rights Law.

6.     Corrects the original Judgment against the Venezuelan regime, where the charge of CRIMES AGAINST PEACE is included, due to the persistent human rights violations that continue even after the multiple denunciations for crimes against humanity against Venezuela.

7.     Implores the International Criminal Court (ICC) to stop being obsessed with only judging African countries, and to start judging States from all over the world, especially those rich and powerful which enjoy impunity.

Legal Requirement on Venezuelan Civic-military Dictatorship

CASE 27-2017: Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR)

Legal Requirement on Venezuelan Civic-military Dictatorship

February 15, 2018

The International Buddhist Ethics Committee is formally requiring the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) to support all legal presentations that have been made to the International Criminal Court (ICC) against the civil-military dictatorship of Maduro in Venezuela for crimes against humanity, especially considering the ruling of the Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights.

This requirement implies that the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) should demand the International Criminal Court (ICC) to fully investigate Venezuela for violations of human rights, which is a conclusion consistent with the reports of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR), where it is confirmed that the situation in Venezuela is alarming, very serious and catastrophic, given the continuous cases of political prisoners, torture, censorship, lack of supplies and lack of medicines that lead to the weakening of democracy and human rights. As shown by the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR), Venezuela is suffering from cancer of high levels of corruption, the existence of a pattern of reprisals against political opponents, severe restrictions on freedom of expression, increased violence and criminality, widespread lack of food and medicine, and child malnutrition. This has led to the worst refugee crisis in the history of the entire American continent, since millions of Venezuelans are fleeing to the neighboring country of Colombia.

The International Buddhist Ethics Committee confirms that it is totally superficial and ineffective for the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) to request the intervention of the Organization of American States (OAS), especially taking into account the fact that Venezuela has announced its formal withdrawal as a member. Therefore, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) is required to act at an international scale, especially before the International Criminal Court (ICC), taking advantage of the fact that Venezuela is a signatory of the Rome Statute, so it could be perfectly investigated and judged before the ICC for crimes against humanity.

The International Buddhist Ethics Committee confirms that the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR), because it has millions of economic, political and legal resources, cannot and should not limit itself to merely presenting detailed reports on the Venezuelan crisis, since such function is characteristic of non-governmental organizations. As an intergovernmental organization, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) has too much power at its disposal in order to confront and try to resolve the Venezuelan crisis with courage and with Sense of Purpose. To urgently resolve the crisis in Venezuela through peace, democracy and international justice, all that is needed is the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) to act Mindfully, with Compassionate Wisdom and Humanitarian Ethics.

Official Statement on Judge Eugenio Zaffaroni

CASE 27-2017: Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR)

Official Statement on Judge Eugenio Zaffaroni

The International Buddhist Ethics Committee, on February 15, 2018, decides to reaffirm once again that the inter-American system of justice should work better and be purified from certain elements and officials that do not comply with fundamental ethical principles, as in the case of Judge Zaffaroni.

The International Buddhist Ethics Committee impeaches Judge Zaffaroni of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights for both his background and his performance. Beyond the fact of not sharing his guaranteeism ideology, some of the reasons for the legal challenge are as follows:

1.      Judge Zaffaroni would have been an official during the last military dictatorship, which committed genocide and crimes against humanity in Argentina, from 1976-1983.

2.      Judge Zaffaroni would have rejected 127 writs of habeas corpus during the military dictatorship, despite the fact that the habeas corpus was the main resource of family members in order that the persons are released from their illegal detentions and are not unofficially executed.

3.      Judge Zaffaroni would have issued some aberrant sentences, such as the judgment where he considers that the sexual violation of a minor with the lights off reduces the weight of the crime.

4.      Judge Zaffaroni would have rented his apartments for using them as brothels.

5.      Judge Zaffaroni has stated on multiple occasions that people do not violate human rights, but only States are those that commit this kind of international crimes, which demonstrates his complete ignorance as an inter-American human rights judge.

6.      Judge Zaffaroni would have been sanctioned with the suspension of his professional license for violating regulations of the Bar Association.

7.      Judge Zaffaroni has been a strong defender of the corrupt and criminal government of former president Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, even coming to legally advice her while being the judge of the Inter-American Court on Human Rights.

The International Buddhist Ethics Committee rules that there are elements to impeach Judge Zaffaroni for the crime of Prevarication, for having ruled arbitrary resolutions and contrary to the law in his role as Argentine judge. In addition, for having systematically rejected habeas corpus during the genocidal dictatorship in Argentina, Judge Zaffaroni could become Responsible for Complicity with Crimes against Humanity, since he would have assisted the military dictatorship in the perpetration of kidnappings and extrajudicial executions. The refusal to provide writs of habeas corpus is perfectly demonstrated in the case of Alicia Lisso, as well as the case of Pablo Fernández Meijide, son of Graciela Fernández Meijide former member of the National Commission on the Disappearance of Persons (Conadep). This shows that the complaint of the lawyer Santiago Dupuy De Lome against Judge Zaffaroni for the crimes of aggravated noncompliance and noncompliance of the duties of a public official is a trifle in comparison with the criminal typology that would really correspond, which is Complicity with Crimes against Humanity, according to the legal vision of the International Buddhist Ethics Committee. For this reason, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee requests the Inter-American Court of Human Rights to immediately initiate a process to remove Judge Zaffaroni as an inter-American judge.

However, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee does not share with the Argentine government that the reason for that removal would be that Judge Zaffaroni is undemocratic because he wants the Argentine government to be replaced. The International Buddhist Ethics Committee considers the public expressions of Judge Zaffaroni, stating that he wishes the fall of the Argentine government of President Macri as soon as possible in order that they do less harm, although it would be a breach of ethics and of impartiality in the function of an inter-American judge, however, it does not constitute any type of crime, being only a political and civil expression. In this sense, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee declares as illegal the police raid on the radio where Judge Zaffaroni expressed his political opinions; also Argentina's judicial investigation of Judge Lijo against Judge Zaffaroni is declared illegal where he is being investigated for apology of crime; is declared illegal the Argentine government statements saying that Judge Zaffaroni's expressions are coup-like and antidemocratic. The International Buddhist Ethics Committee considers that the words of Judge Zaffaroni about his wish for the end of President Macri's term are totally legal, constitutional and protected by international human rights treaties. Democracy is not simply an electoral process, but it is really the expression and political participation of all citizens in the decision-making. The International Buddhist Ethics Committee believes that the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) should intervene in this matter in order to protect freedom of opinion, conscience and thought which is being systematically attacked by the government of President Macri.

Proclamation on Wahhabism

CASE 04-2015: ISIS

Proclamation on Wahhabism

February 13, 2018

The International Buddhist Ethics Committee & Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights,

Considering that the guerrilla group ISIS has been condemned as Responsible for Genocide, Ethnic Cleansing, Crimes against Humanity, False Islam, Violation of the International Human Rights Law, War Crimes and High Crimes against Peace;

Recalling that the genocidal movement ISIS is based on the vision of the eighteenth-century fundamentalist ideology called Wahhabism, which is the official religion of Saudi Arabia despite the fact that having been born through merciless massacres against women, children and the elderly, condemning any Muslim who does not agree with its literal and distortive interpretations;

Aware that the founder of Wahhabism, the preacher Muhammad ibn Abd al Wahhab, believed that Muslims who behave in a modern way are a deviation from the true message of Islam, which demonstrates the anachronistic characteristic of this fundamentalist ideology that aims at purification of Islam through inadequate means that violate fundamental human rights;

Concerned enormously by the fact that fundamentalist movements do not understand that Jihad is a process of inner spiritual purification, so that they confuse and deceive Muslims when conveying a vision of Jihad as an external military struggle against non-believers and against Muslims themselves that do not agree with their fundamentalist views, which is an intolerant vision that does not exist in the true Islam that has been practiced for 1400 years;

Deploring the fact that since 1932 Wahhabism has control over all the political, social and cultural life of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, such as education and the judicial system of the country;

Analyzing that since 1970 Saudi Arabia has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in building hundreds of mosques in order to spread Wahhabism and turn it into a global ideology, helping people from all over the world to learn this fundamentalist ideology and to commit atrocities in the name of Islam;

Taking into consideration that Wahhabism was promoted in Afghanistan, which influenced Osama Bin Laden and the Al Qaeda movement;

Examining the fact that ISIS has been financed through donations from Saudi Arabia, which is a fact that has been criticized by the presidents of Iraq and Iran, and even confirmed by US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in 2014;

Showing dismay at the fact that women in Saudi Arabia do not fully enjoy equality, fundamental freedoms and human rights, lacking the legal capacity to marry, work, open bank accounts, have justice, travel, dress by themselves, interact with men, seek medical treatment and have custody of their children, since women are controlled by guardians in almost all aspects of life;

Expressing absolute solidarity to women of Saudi Arabia for suffering from a system that is similar to that of Apartheid, which is regarded by International Criminal Law as a crime against humanity;

Taking into account that in 2017 Saudi Arabia became the first country to grant citizenship to the humanoid robot called Sophia, created by Hanson Robotics company of Hong Kong, extraordinarily complying with the Universal Declaration of the Rights of Non-Human Beings proclaimed by the United Buddhist Nations Organization, where civil rights are granted to Artificial Intelligence and other non-human beings;

Reaffirming the sad fact that the humanoid robot named Sophia has civil rights that the women of Saudi Arabia do not possess, such as the fundamental freedom to dress freely and that their heads and bodies are not covered by veils or robes, commonly known as niqabs or burqas;

Demonstrating that the humanoid robot named Sophia has more rights in Saudi Arabia than the rest of the immigrant human beings who arrive in that country, people who are exploited in their works, there being even tens of thousands of people subjected to slavery;

Denouncing that there is evidence suggesting that the government of Saudi Arabia participated in the financing and logistics of the terrorist attacks of Al Qaeda against the Twin Towers of the USA on September 11, 2001 where 3,000 people died, as stated by Bob Graham, former director of the intelligence committee of the US Senate;

I.                  It is stated that if it were judicially verified the fact that Saudi Arabia participated in the attacks on September 11, 2001 against the Twin Towers, then the former presidents George Bush and Barack Obama would be responsible for the cover-up of crimes against humanity, given that President Bush censored a 28-page report where there were indications in favor of the hypothesis of Saudi collaboration in the attacks, while President Obama received public threats from Saudi Arabia and decided to veto a law that allowed the families of victims of terrorist attacks to sue the countries that collaborate with terrorism.

II.               Total support is affirmed for the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act (JASTA) that allows families of victims of 9/11 attacks to sue Saudi Arabia and other countries that promote terrorism.

III.           Solidarity and compassion is invoked for the organization 9/11 Families & Survivors United for Justice and other 800 relatives, who judicially have demanded Saudi Arabia after the annullment of the illegal veto of President Obama, presenting investigations carried out by FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation of the United States of America) about the financial and logistic support by the government of Saudi Arabia to terrorists that attacked the Twin Towers.

IV.           It is confirmed that the terrorist Zacarias Moussaoui declared that Al Qaeda received donations from the royal family of Saudi Arabia.

V.              Saudi Arabia is required to immediately establish an egalitarian regime between men and women.

VI.           It is immediately required a ceasefire on the part of Saudi Arabia against Yemen, since there are proofs of continuous attacks against civil populations, which is something that could be considered to constitute crimes against humanity and war crimes.

VII.       ISIS and Wahhabism are condemned for being transnational organized crime organizations that distort true Islam.

Official Statement to Jun Po Denis Kelly

Case No. 31-2017: Ken Wilber

Official Statement to Jun Po Denis Kelly

The International Buddhist Ethics Committee, on February 7, 2018, decides to reaffirm once again that all organizations endorsing Ken Wilber’s  fraudulent teachings will be practizing a False Buddhism and a False Spirituality in the eyes of Buddhist Law, betraying the Fundamental teachings of Master Gautama, since Ken Wilber has been judged for Academic Dishonesty, Spiritual Scam and False Buddhism, Violation of Buddhist Law, Crime against Buddhist Cultural Heritage and Violation of Human Rights. In this sense, with regard to the organization called "Integral Zen", which publicly claims to be a Zen lineage that follows Wilber’s teachings, it is confirmed that a False Zen would actually be practiced, since as has been demonstrated during the Wilber Case, this writer conveys anti-Buddhist and anti-Zen ideas, transmitting a heresy and a betrayal of the fundamental principles of Buddhist Spirituality.

The International Buddhist Ethics Committee also confirms that the alleged Lineage of "Integral Zen" would have fraudulent biases that must be immediately solved, not only for incorporating Wilber's fraudulent teachings, but also because Doshin Michael Nelson Roshi, the leader of "Integral Zen", says that he has received the Dharma transmission in an uninterrupted line that goes back to Siddharta Gautama himself. Beyond the fact that historically and philosophically one can doubt the uninterruption of the Zen lineages that go back to Gautama Buddha, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee considers that such an affirmation on the part of the "Integral Zen" is fraudulent for different possible reasons:

I.                  Doshin Michael Nelson Roshi's Master was Jun Po Denis Kelly, who renounced his Zen lineage due to a conflict with his Master named Eido Shimano, which is something that shows a clear interruption in the line.

II.               Two decades later, Master Eido Shimano has had to resign due to public allegations of sexual misconduct, which is a clear interruption in the line, in addition to delegitimizing any Dharma transmission that he may have previously granted, since this lack of ethics corrupts deeply his Zen lineage.

III.           On the other hand, there are public testimonies coming from Sanghas of Japan manifesting that Master Eido Shimano has not finished his training process, and therefore, he would not have received the Dharma transmission, which would definitively destroy all possible legitimacy on the part of his Zen lineage.

The International Buddhist Ethics Committee confirms that if the "Integral Zen" lineage wishes to be legitimate, it should not only abandon Ken Wilber's anti-Buddhist teachings that support criminal and insane gurus, but it should also abandon the fraudulent claim to go back in time without interruption to Siddhartha Gautama, besides the fact that they should definitely renounce being Dharma heirs of someone whose ethical and spiritual legitimacy has been invalidated: Master Eido Shimano's.

Finally, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee confirms that it will initiate an international legal investigation into Eido Shimano's misbehavior, which could even lead to the annulment of his alleged title of Roshi.

NOTIFICATION to Doshin Michael Nelson Roshi

Case No. 31/2017: Ken Wilber

NOTIFICATION to Doshin Michael Nelson Roshi

On February 6, 2018, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee & Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights is communicating with Doshin Michael Nelson Roshi, as a result of the Judgment that has been made against Ken Wilber for the crimes of Academic Dishonesty, Spiritual Scam and False Buddhism, Violation of Buddhist Law, Crime against Buddhist Cultural Heritage and Violation of Human Rights, which was sentenced for the fraudulent teachings of this writer. Although Ken Wilber has committed numerous violations of the Buddhist Ethics, he seems to be receiving public support from Doshin Michael Nelson Roshi, which is an act of complicity that must be immediately cancelled.

The International Buddhist Ethics Committee & Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights clearly considers that Doshin Michael Nelson Roshi is violating the sacredness of Buddhist Spirituality by publicly stating that Ken Wilber is the perfect one, is unique and brilliant without parallel, all of which is a total offense against Buddhism, since this individual is a fraud, not only for resorting to plagiarism but also because for decades he has transmitted ideas that totally misinterpret Buddhism and Meditation, even endorsing gurus that are sexual abusers, violent, insane and corrupt. In addition, Ken Wilber not only shows pathological character traits of narcissism and sectarianism, but also transmits a pseudo-spiritual and pseudo-scientific system along with an ethnocentric and right-wing political system. Obviously, all these traits and ideas of Ken Wilber are a profound violation of the Bodhisattva ideal. Even, Doshin Michael Nelson Roshi has come to lie openly when saying that Wilber has 50 years of experience in Zen and Vajrayana. Doshin Michael Nelson Roshi has even said not only that Wilber is one of his great teachers, but also that his own Zen Master, Jun Po Denis Kelly, has not recovered from narcissistic tendencies, which is tantamount to confessing that he has not fully awakened, unconsciously invalidating his own Zen lineage, which is a school that comes from Eido Shimano Roshi, who has had multiple complaints of sexual abuse for several years.

Ergo, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee & Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights requests Doshin Michael Nelson Roshi to immediately stop supporting Ken Wilber, this being an act of complicity with immoral ideas that undermine the dignity of Buddhism.

Case No. 28/2017: UNESCO

NOTIFICATION to Brazil

On February 7, 2018, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee & Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights is communicating with the Government of Brazil as a result of the Judgment made by the Brazilian justice against former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva for crimes of corruption with 12 years in prison. Due to the fact that Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has received the UNESCO's Félix Houphouët-Boigny Peace Prize, the Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights once again considers that UNESCO should immediately cancel the peace award given to Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, who was rewarded for his supposed contribution to social justice despite leading a corrupt government in Brazil.

In addition to the judgment for passive corruption and money laundering in the "Tríplex Case", Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is faced with multiple trials before the Brazilian justice system, such as obstruction of justice ("Petrobras Case"); passive corruption, influence peddling, money laundering and illicit association ("Angola Contracts Case"); passive corruption and money laundering ("Lava Jato Case" and "House in Atibaia Case"); and passive corruption ("Operation Zelotes Case").

Ergo, the Brazilian government is notified that it should ask UNESCO to annul the peace prize awarded to Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, as this contradicts the founding spirit of this international organization, as well as being a violation of the spirit of Peace.

Judgment of the Case "Tom B Clark"

Case No. 39/2018: Tom B. Clark

ETHICAL JUDGMENT

Dear Prosecutor, Public Defender, Ambassador, Secretary and Jury Members of the International Buddhist Ethics Committee (IBEC) and Buddhist Tribunal on Human Rights (BTHR), regarding Case 39-2018 against "Tom B Clark", on February 11, 2018, it is hereby recorded that the trial of the Ethics Committee has been concluded in order to analyze the Violation of Buddhist Ethics on the part of the accused.

After analyzing the presentation of the Case and the validation of proofs, it proceeded with the vote of 10 members of the Jury, confirming that there were 1 vote of “Innocent” and 9 votes of "Responsible" for "Tom B Clark" for having committed the serious crime of Fraud and Scam. When interpreting and giving voice to the vote of the Jury members, it is concluded that "Tom B Clark" has no valid excuse to justify his Violation of Buddhist Ethics, since he has never shown any evidence to support his hardly credible hypothesis that a undergraduate assistant is the one who lied when he published in the emails, websites and social networks that "Tom B Clark" had graduated from the MBU with a PhD degree in Buddhist Psychology and Mindfulness. In this sense, the accused's defense, even without knowing it, is proof of an explicit tendency to fabulate and to use fictions. In this way, this Judgment teaches "Tom B Clark" that he must not only comply with the ethical precepts of Buddhist Spirituality, which fervently prohibit lying, but must also comply with psychologist's profession, which prohibits the use of manipulation and academic fraud, as this endangers the mental health of patients. Evidence from the Case has shown that "Tom B Clark" is within the framework of illegality for having lied and committed fraud and scams by lying that he has graduated from a PhD in Buddhist Psychology and Mindfulness. Although the accused has repeatedly apologized and has eliminated public references in which he fraudulently claimed to be a graduate of the MBU, this is not enough to declare him Innocent.

However, as is done with almost all the accused, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee confirms that if "Tom B Clark" decides to repair the damage caused and genuinely enter the Buddhist Path, then a conciliatory post-sentence agreement would have been reached, by being able to eventually canceling all charges against the accused. To fulfill this possible conciliatory agreement, "Tom B Clark" should enroll in the MBU to study an intensive program of Buddhist Psychology and Mindfulness, since learning would be the best way to repair or mend the damage caused against the Truth. This resolution is based on the Dhammapada of Siddharta Gautama, who stated that the teachings of all the Awakened Beings (Buddhas) is to do good, to stop doing evil and to spiritually purify oneself. For this reason, it is not enough to simply apologize and delete lies, because it also requires that the accused acts with kindness and that he purifies himself spiritually through learning and Truth. Until this possible conciliatory agreement does not happen, the International Buddhist Ethics Committe declares that "Tom B Clark" is Responsible for Fraud and Scams.

The Buddhist Law is always a Path for redemption in the here and now. It is a learning Path, open to everyone. It only requires having the courage to stop doing evil, begin to do good, and spiritually purify oneself through an appropriate guidance.

In conclusion, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee has the Purpose (Dharma) that the Buddhist Spirituality remains pure and is never perverted or infiltrated by corrupt, and denouncing anyone who violates the sacredness of the Truth. Therefore, it is established that "Tom B Clark" has violated the Buddhist Ethics by means of fraudulent conduct. Undoubtedly, although he has eliminated the scam after having been discovered, this does not necessarily imply that the accused is doing good and that he is being purified spiritually, because that requires learning Buddhist Psychology under the guidance of spiritual masters. Therefore, he should graduate in the MBU which is the school that the defendant affected. In this way, the Case on "Tom B Clark" is a great lesson in order that anyone who commit scams is aware that it will not be done with impunity, but it is also a great lesson for those who have made mistakes and want to mend their actions, teaching a pathway in which learning is the Path toward redemption.

Following the Path of Master Gautama Buddha, who created and developed a Path of Education toward Peace and Salvation two thousand six hundred years ago, the International Buddhist Ethics Committee oversees that professionals from all over the world do not betray the purity of Buddhist Psychology, so that "Tom B Clark" has been sentenced Responsible for committing FRAUD AND SCAM.
