One exception to the rule doesn't disprove the rule. Unless you can come up with a large number of "Native traditionalists" who are scamming people, Al Carroll's point stands.<br /><br />You made your point about Foster. Now cut it out. We're not turning these sweat-lodge postings into a referendum on him. His case isn't relevant to James Arthur Ray's case.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01478763837213733775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-53512775353411387292009-10-30T13:14:28.986-07:002009-10-30T13:14:28.986-07:00Non-Indins need to stick to their own religious be...Non-Indins need to stick to their own religious beliefs, especially these "New Age" scammers/cons.

Vernon Foster is a Native American who makes monies off of doing Sweats on land outside Sedona, Arizona. He is a former Director of Arizona AIM. He is known locally as a con and scam artist. Check the website for NLP Training. There is a series planned for April 22-25, 2010 by Bill THomason who labels himself NLP Success Coach. He is charging $695.00;calling it a Recession Buster because the original fee was $895.00. He charges couples $1200.00 Shaman training/NLP Shaman Training. Vernon Foster is scheduled to "conduct" the Sweats on "his" property outside Sedona and Cottonwood. NLP SHAMAN TRAINING; excuse me, what????!!! Nope, being a scam is NOT confined to non-Native peoples. Vernon is a Klamath Indian who uses his past association with AIM to line his pockets....he is known for this in Sedona. Your article has unfortunately excluded a very imperative bit of knowledge: just because one dresses the part and knows what to say does NOT mean his "Way" is for real.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
