Here in the example of Christophe André (born 1956 in Toulouse), French psychiatrist and psychotherapist at the Hôpital Sainte Anne in Paris, where he deals with the treatment of anxiety and phobias.

Matthieu Ricard is a Buddhist monk with a PhD. in Cellular Genetics. If we go to a talk of Matthieu Ricard, PhD. at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETH Zurich), let s read first the papers about meditation research. Not all of Matthieu Ricards teachings are validated scientifically.

Matthieu Ricard cares about the victims of Sogyal and the so-called Buddhist master Robert Spatz on his blog:

“It is indispensable for a representative agency, such as the Buddhist Union of France, to take on this responsibility and serve as a safeguard against future deviances of power. Above all, it seems to be necessary, as exists in Catholicism, to create a structure that would allow victims to be heard in complete safety, and to be supported through psychology and legal means. Our most important task is to take care of the victims and safeguard others through education to prevent such abuses from happening in the future.”

Let us care also about the victims of Matthieu Ricard, who did not read the papers about mediation research.

Let us care also about the victims of Richard Davidson, who trust too much in scientific findings. Not all of the scientific findings Richard Davidson wrote about in his book “Altered Traits” are confirmed by meditators. Therefore, be careful, and do not trust too much in scientific findings.
