Oliver Shanti & Friends

He made the music together with others. Knowing that, helps me to keep listening to the music. But, its hard knowing the story about him. Its the same thing going on over at Gary Glitters page. Its much more easy to ban him, cause I never cared about his music anyway. But with Shanti...I struggle because the music is so great, and I later came to knew about what he had done. If I knew before I started listen to him, I might never listened to him again....

Every human has positive and negative sides - Shanti showed his in doing great music and helping people to find peace on the one hand, and doing the worst imaginable thing on the other hand. It's hard for me to listen to this great music knowing the story behind it, but yet its a call to overcome the own "dark side". It's a pity that he could not.

It is indeed sad to know the history behind mr. Schulz, but is also sad reading people here wishing someone stay in jail for the rest of the life, and others not open to forgive. Anyway I’m happy I found this music, it’s awesome!

I'm so conflicted about him...I love this music very much, but the person behind it made some incredibly bad mistakes. Over 100 accounts of sexual abuse :/ I suppose it's just separating the music from the artist. The music can take a new refuge in someone's mind.

Oliver Shanti pops up a lot on my radios; I ban every track. This isn't on the principle that I don't like his music - in the past I've stuck several tracks on repeat for hours on end as a solution to many a stressful day - but instead that I couldn't possibly like Schulz himself. I'd never shake his hand and never, given an opportunity, befriend him. Many artists have their faults, and the occasional speeding ticket or verbal outburst I would overlook - it happens to us too - but his taking credit for others' work alone fills me with disgust, let alone his various confessions of child abuse. To associate Schulz with my musical tastes would be to associate him with me as a person, but I cannot relate to a plagiarist and, worse, a convicted paedophile.

É uma lástima que ele esteja envolvido nessas acusações de pedofilia. Independente da sua vida pessoal, as músicas do Oliver são indiscutivelmente maravilhosas e inspiradoras. Basta sabermos separar uma coisa da outra. Gostar do trabalho dele como músico não quer dizer aprovar os erros por ele cometidos. :-\

I_m_not_good, речь идет не о 300 изнасилованных детях. Оливер обвинялся по 314 пунктам, 76 из которых были доказаны следствием. Ему приписывают сексуальные надругательства над двумя девочками и четырьмя мальчиками. Надругательства над девочками так и не были доказаны, так же как и 238 пунктов обвинения.

Мне кажется, что обвинение в изнасиловании сфабриковано. Оливер был известным активистом, участвовал в движении освобождения Леонарда Пелтиера в США. За что и поплатился! Власть ему отомстила...

Oliver Shanti confessed to abuse some boys during trial. But according to a German article, there was also a settlement before the trial, that if he pleaded guilty , and confessed everything, his sentence would not exceed 7 years. See there: http://www.spiegel.de/panorama/justiz/0,1518,659589,00.html Also lot of interesting information in this forum thread: http://www.newagefraud.org/smf/index.php?topic=1189.0 You learn from here that Oliver Shanti didn't compose all the music, and haven't done most of the work. Also he made a donation scam : "There was also an agreement with a Tibetan organization, giving them one mark per sold unit of the CD Tai Chi, [...] but to this day the Tibetans still haven't seen any money." Also you learn from wikipedia that "Because of Oliver's unavailability, the rest of the group is continuing with Margot Reisinger (new band called "Existence") New "official website" , selling records: http://www.shantirecords.com/
