Talk:Serge Raynaud de la Ferriere

message: Begin of comment by mithuna: I would be very careful with the claims made in his books, biographies,etc. Those are made by his followers and lack, that I know of, an independent review or support documentation. It would be very nice to have support for claims such as that he was proposed to the Nobel Prize,and degrees for psychology and any other formal studies, besides the ones related to occult sciences.

You can research all about the UGB as they are part of the United Nations.
Most web sites on Wikipedia are written by people who admire the people they are writing about. I think the term "follower" is incorrect. Life is about learning, through experience and reading, not by following.
Begin of comment by Mithuna:  Your assertion that UGB is part of the United Nations is incorrect, they have sought registration which is a little different and in no way means endorsement of UN to UGB. If you have documents that UN that prove that is different than this please provide. There should not be unsupported claims in a public resource like this one. Please provide documentary evidence about claims made about Serge Raynaud de la Ferriere as outlined in the first comment by me. End of Comment by Mithuna.
Hello everyone, my name is Evelyn Gil and together with my daughter we were the original writers of Serge Raynaud's biography in 2005 . At that time I did place a link with a copy of the letter written by the United Nations stating that the UGB or correctly Gran Fraternidad Universal (in spanish) is indeed registered with the department of information with the United Nations as well as ECOSOC, of course to my dismay someone removed it from the page. I still have that letter in my files , however if people are going to continue to remove it every time I insert it , I believe its pointless for me to even bother. Another mistake that i found was that I had stated that Serge graduated from the Catholic College in Brussels Belgium and someone removed it and put in College at Louvain, I'm still trying to get one of my facebook friends that live in Belgium to get me a copy of the diploma and although i offered money everyone seems too busy to do it. At this point I wish to conclude by saying that I'm not interested in his honorary degrees its his books which are wonderful, and as he puts it , they are all re teachings, nothing new under the sun. His books were originally in french and he left it to be translated into spanish and other languages with the appropriate references by David Ferriz EvelynGil (talk) 06:13, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

message: The founder of the UGB, Serge Raynaud de la Ferrière, has many inconsistencies in his biography. For instance, he claims in one of his letters to have earned five doctorate degrees, but where his biographers say he studied, he did not, and there are letters from various European universities confirming that he is not listed in their student files. Next, he copies several paragraphs from different authors without quoting them correctly. In one of his books, almost half of it is copied from a Hungarian author, whom he only mentions here and there. Furthermore, he says he has the scientific proof of the vernal equinox in the constellation of Aquarius, in 1948, but it boils down to a calculation derived from his birth date. Besides, astronomically, the vernal equinox is still in Piscis. It would be a good idea to read his wife’s book (it only exists in Spanish, free download here: http://louise.mejor.es/), to get a better glimpse of him. Lastly, he says he received recognition as a boddhisatva from a delegate to the Dalai Lama, in Burma, in 1950, but the Office of His Holiness has sofar denied they know anything about him or the so–called delegate.

thread_title:  More about Serge Raynaud de la Ferrière 

message: I have just happened across this article while casually browsing. It is obvious that Serge Raynaud de la Ferriere was a real person, and was notable in several ways. Thus, this article is certainly needed. What we have, though, does not fulfill the need very well.
At the risk of being pedantic, let me emphasize two Wikipedia cornerstones:  Neutral Point of View WP:NPV and Verifiability (publication by reliable sources) WP:V. This article has major problems in both areas.
Some sources are provided, but their connection to the article is often unclear. Several proved to be non-functional when I checked them, and I've deleted those. Others tend to be very non-neutral websites. A remarkably long and unnecessary (in my opinion) list of honors and awards was in the article, seemingly completely without verification. I've now deleted that.
It is my intention to work further on the article. I don't want to delete any important facts, and hope others will help me out, especially by providing good, neutral sources. Tim Ross (talk) 13:39, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

and 
 He definitely did NOT attend the Catholic University of Leuven and wasn't even an academic. He claims to have five doctorate degrees in his curriculum and sofar not even a college graduation diploma has been found. I have a letter from the archivist confirming that he didn't study there. Next, he didn't receive a doctorate in Amsterdam, in 1937, either; ...
This article is apologetics. Instead, it should mention he had no academic degrees, falsified his biography, etc. I have fixed some obvious adulatory passages.
