"If you ever saw me heal, you'd be down on your knees crying like a friggin' baby," West said.

The above is a quote from Ms West (Surya Ma, Devra Ji etc) that appeared in an article in the Whitefish Pilot on Thursday July 12th 2007. To read the full article click on this link.

This one comment to reporter Constance See says all there is to say about Ms West. There is arrogance, contempt for others and an overwhelming feeling of superiority from an egomaniac who feels she is above all - including the law.

Here is more from the article.

"A temporary restraining order against West, who calls herself Surya Ma, was issued by Judge David Ortley last October after Dr. Patricia Cole, of Whitefish, requested protection. Cole was the director for one of West's ventures, The Sacred Archives Institute. They worked together for several years. In her statement to the county sheriff's office, Cole claims West abused her verbally and physically.

"She has told me that she has the 'spiritual' power and authority to 'take me out,' to be composted," Cole wrote in the temporary restraining order statement. Cole claims West threw a lamp at her and hit her with a briefcase, cell phone and her hand. "She took off her shoe and hit me on the top of my head, causing my scalp to bleed onto my face, neck and clothes," Cole's statement reads.

"She threatened to kill me with a gun to my head, 'blowing my brains out,' and advised me to commit suicide by slitting my wrists, after I'd taken out an insurance policy on myself." Photos taken after the alleged beating were submitted to the sheriff's office.

When the Pilot asked about Cole's claims, West said her attorney advised her not to comment on the misdemeanor charge. A hearing for a jury trial is scheduled for later this month."

I would not blame Pat Cole for going down on her knees and crying like a baby when Ms West allegedly hit Pat Cole on the top of her head with a shoe causing her scalp to bleed, I mean wouldn't most of us? But I would hardly call this a healing?

I have seen Ms West in action. I was meeting with her when one of her household slaves asked for permission to have the weekend off to visit her children. In a display of brutality that I never hope to see again West grabbed the girl by her long hair and proceeded to slap her about the head. Ms West's then secretary Barbara Costantino was also present.
 

Similarly one of West's current employees also allegedly commented to the reporter that they thought I would be dead soon for putting up this site?  Make no mistake this is NO HEALER we are dealing with here!

I implore all those who have suffered at Ms West's hands or been witness to the suffering of others to come forward and support the victims who are currently mounting court cases against West in the Bitteroot and Flat Head areas.  Please email me via this link for contact information.

I would also ask that you contact other local newspapers, Oprah, Dr Phil and as many others as you can think of to get this news story syndicated as widely as possible.
