{{cquote|I am Brian Ruhe, and I lead a double life. I teach Buddhism and meditation in Vancouver, Canada and I am also a political activist resisting globalist Jewish power. I believe this is the single biggest problem in the world today for everybody, including Buddhist traditions.|||Summary to Ruhe's video, ''[[Homosexual_agenda|Gay Pride Parade a Tool of International Jews]]''<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VyOqGtRmkY Gay Pride Parade a Tool of International Jews] by Brian Ruhe published Aug 3, 2015</ref>}}
'''Brian Ruhe''' is a [[Canada|Canadian]] lay-[[Buddhism|Buddhist]] teacher, [[author]], a much more devout [[Conspiracy theory|conspiracy theorist]], and an all-around creepy guy.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBX3ptz801M You didn't misread the title…]</ref>

Ruhe has been teaching Buddhist [[meditation]] since 1997. However, his teaching agreement contract was not renewed at [[British Columbia]]'s Capilano University when his [[Holocaust denial]] and interest in [[historical revisionism]] were discovered by his students. He of course states that ' I was Fired!'.<ref>[http://www.straight.com/news/518581/adolf-hitler-admirer-upset-capilano-university-turfed-him-buddhist-meditation-instructor Adolf Hitler admirer upset Capilano University turfed him as Buddhist meditation instructor]</ref> Ruhe has a self-proclaimed interest in "[[World War II]] revisionist history", which is really just [[code word|code]] for Holocaust denial. Some have also labeled him an "[[Adolf Hitler]] admirer",<ref>[http://www.straight.com/news/518581/adolf-hitler-admirer-upset-capilano-university-turfed-him-buddhist-meditation-instructor Adolf Hitler admirer upset Capilano University turfed him as Buddhist meditation instructor]</ref> which isn't far from the truth at all.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xiYqQtwEg0 "A Spiritual View of Adolf Hitler"] Published on Jul 31, 2014</ref> He has made numerous videos on [[YouTube]] detailing his [[delusion]]s, which include a [[Nazi]] [[heaven]] in Buddhist cosmology,<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkWAuO6P8rA NAZI Heaven] Siddhartha would be proud!</ref> [[UFO]]s and [[Extraterrestrial|aliens]],<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NQytFOOWP4 Ruhe talking about UFOs or something]</ref> [[ghost]]s and [[psychic]] [[woo]],<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzkftMoUkfE]</ref> and an [[international Jewish conspiracy]].<ref>According to Führer Brian Ruhe, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VyOqGtRmkY gay pride parades are a tool of international Jews]</ref> He frequently claims that all he is doing is mixing Buddhism with his "geopolitical views" as he speaks prominently about himself in third-person. Ruhe has recently begun showing up at LGBTQ and anti-Trump rallies, alone and dressed like Dr. Mengele. Once confronted he tends to ask 'Hows my hair?' and then lift his arm in a Nazi salute. All the while an undercover Asian associate films the events from afar.

In his early days, Ruhe was a {{wpl|Theravada|Theravada Buddhist}} monk in [[Thailand]]. He claims he left the monastic life, although some have suggested he may have been expelled due to his views, as he was only ordained for a year. He has since given lectures on Buddhism at colleges and on the Internet, however, he may not be a very reliable source of information, as he believes {{wpl|Mahayana|Mahayana Buddhism}} was created by a [[demon]].<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wj8ROh7dyHE</ref>
