We welcome you to our website. Please read the rebuttals.
There is another side to the profane stories authored by John Watson,
that seek to slander and disparage DEVRA WEST - SURYA MA.
The following information has been posted to protect and inform
any one who has had the misfortune of being influenced
by his malicious vengeance and slander campaign.

We have received virtually hundreds of complaints from people who report that Mr. Watson has threatened them, falsified their comments or entirely conjectured statements without their knowledge. Watson refuses to return their calls and emails when asking to be purged from his website. Most people reading even a small sampling of his ranting, which contradicts itself at every turn, can see for themselves that Mr. Watson is a deeply troubled individual and they do not put stock in his apparent lunacy. His personal website is www.reikijohn.com if you need verification of his shallow but true orientation.

Please be cautioned that health care professionals have profiled Mr. Watson as being mentally unstable and at risk of complete psychosis. When in a manic phase, he is known to send numerous hate e-mails to our office in a single day, apparently thriving on the theatrics of his self-aggrandizement. His vicious threats and implausible accusations are the product of a very sick mind that uses Sir John, Sir Watson, Lord Watson, Lord Ballymore, Lord Esquire, Financial Manager, General Manager, Prime Director, Grand Convener, to name a few of his delusional self assigned titles and AKA’s. Additionally, please be warned of his tactic to saturate the Internet and local press with entirely fabricated, false and implausible claims. However, we trust your discernment while appropriate measures are being taken to protest this abuse of the Internet.Several lawsuits have been filed against him, both criminal and civil.

Our rebuttals are offered to bring light to the foul profanity that has he has conjectured and spewed to anyone that offers him a stage for his obsession. We have been at the brunt of ongoing illegal harassment from Mr. Watson for several years. He has used every devious ploy imaginable to conjure unfounded and non-existent conflict and controversy. His extortion tactics to line his pockets with a financial settlement are now legendary. However, his delusion that he can author a perverse reality that defines Surya Ma’s existence is far more profane. To this end, he has routinely conspired to defame and entrap Surya Ma by grossly misrepresenting both people and circumstances, to include fraudulently portraying students, neighbors, family members and employees by writing false letters and statements without their knowledge. He also routinely creates fictitious people and circumstances that do not exist at all, spinning story upon story wherein he is the sole author. Therefore, we ask that you be so kind as to verify your intentions by sending us an email. We are happy to respond to any request for information that you might have after reading this response.

Unfortunately, he has used the tactic of postponing trial dates five times over several years to avoid being prosecuted and to also prolong his platform for spinning his web of tabloid-trash. However, ten thousand untruths no matter how cunningly conspired, can never achieve the enduring value of a single truth. We assure you that the mean-spirited gossip that he has circulated is untrue and unjustified or grossly inaccurate and deliberately taken out of context. This includes the newspaper article featured on Goggle that was authored by John Watson, who managed to convince a novice, small town reporter that his sordid tabloid story had legitimacy. The preposterous slant of the article was falsely fabricated from start to finish. The publisher has since profusely apologized for being misled, and has printed our rebuttals in several issues. Agreements are also in progress to rectify false/misleading statements and withdraw the articles from the paper’s archives.

As an update and contrary to Mr. Watson’s slander agenda, Surya Ma is far from being a cult leader and has no interest in followers or being show cased by any organization. Her Universal Teachings of Wisdom are offered through her on-line class room, www.Surya-Source.com. She works privately with influential philanthropists and her training internships are offered solely on an invitational basis. Surya Ma has never been evicted as per Mr. Watson’s fabrication, but rather she lives peaceably in her lovely home on Flathead Lake. The ex-employee, who conspired with Mr. Watson, has a history of filing bogus complaints against employers. State officials have denied her claim, to include demanding repayment of all monies resultant from false accusations. The sensationalist photos touted as abuse were actually taken to submit to an insurance company for a personal injury claim and were later retrofitted as an entrapment attempt to cover up the theft and misappropriation of Surya Ma’s finances. We also assure you that although Mr. Watson’s website professes a host of implausible accusations, this unethical use of the internet in no way represents the her life or that of her family members.

We kindly ask that you please take the time to read the rebuttals, as we trust that you would not want to be a party to his unwarranted attacks on Surya Ma that have no purpose other than to appease his envy and jealously. To her credit, Surya Ma does not dignify Mr. Watson’s antics with a response and has never replied back to him in any fashion what so ever. His attempts to pit Surya Ma’s family and supporters against one another are grossly transparent and have failed. Her community members, employees, supporters, and family members have stood by her side unfailingly.

We apologize for any concern this matter may have caused you. We trust that light will prevail on all fronts and that our legal system will rout out the venomous plot woven by Mr. Watson, that has used every possible tactic to pass itself off as credible. Surya Ma’s ongoing good works, beautiful teachings, and tireless service say all that she chooses to say. We stand united as witnesses of Surya Ma’s grace and wisdom over the years, as she has continued to serve humanity with much love and joy. Her projects are brilliant expressions of service and creativity for all who choose a path of contemporary sacred living. You are welcome to peruse her website
www.Surya-Source.com, which continues to offer the Universal Teachings of Wisdom on a monthly basis.
