Dear Friends and Members of the Public,
I am writing today to formally address the various allegations and accusations that have been levied against me by an ex-partner and in many comments online.
Since the beginning of my work with ‘Spirit Science’ in 2011, I have been confronted with social media comments that are without merit and bring an element of doubt to the sensitive nature of my work. Some have sparked strong reactions, including claims of forming a cult and, more disturbingly, being an abuser. It has been a long-awaited moment, both for myself and the many thousands of viewers who have encouraged me to take a stand, to respectfully address these claims head-on.
On the Accusation of Forming a Cult
The label of establishing a cult appears to stem from the substantial following I have garnered, as well as the fact that my views often extend beyond what is considered “mainstream.” I have always aimed to bridge extreme polarities—whether between science and religion, or liberal and conservative viewpoints—while honoring diverse perspectives. My work involves topics such as sacred geometry, energy healing, and metaphysics, alongside mainstream science and spirituality. My goal has always been to unify, to encourage dialogue, and to explore new ways of understanding who we are and our place in the universe.
Critics have called me a “pseudoscientist” and accused me of seeking personal gain, but I deny such accusations unequivocally. My mission has always been to empower others to question, explore, and arrive at their own conclusions freely. From the very start, I have asked my audience not to believe or disbelieve anything without first having their own experience. This is the opposite of cult behavior, which by its nature seeks to impose a belief system on others to gain power. I encourage everyone to find strength in their own convictions, to seek truth and love, and to elevate their understanding of life.
You will never find me telling anyone to believe what I believe, or that my way is the right way or only way. I will forever and always support each individual in finding their own truth, the light in their heart, and their own voice to live the way they want to live in harmony with themselves, society, and the planet.
On the Accusation of Abuse
The more severe accusation against me is that I am an abuser. Many years ago, an ex-partner of mine publicly accused me of abusing her. Part of a recorded phone call between us was later published. To address this directly, I want to provide clarity on what actually transpired.
After our breakup in 2012, my ex-partner and I had a conversation one year later where she expressed conflicted feelings about our first intimate encounter. She described that part of her wanted to move forward, while another part wasn’t ready.
Then, in 2017, she reached out again with a different story—this time claiming definitively that I had abused her.
During a long and difficult conversation, I tried to offer support, even though I did not agree with how she was describing it in that moment. She asked me to walk through her story and agree to it as a way to help her heal and move on. I did, to comfort her. That call was recorded, and part of it was later published as an admission.
Moving Forward
I live in constant devotion to helping humanity navigate and be enriched by the challenging happenings in these unprecedented times, recognizing our connectiveness and our collective need to raise the loving consciousness of all of us humans and indeed all of life.
However, for years now, many people have asked me to step up.
I am grateful for the outpouring of support I have received from so many over the years. I have remained silent however because I have come to realize that it is my duty as a devoted servant to speak from my heart and to offer my most sincere apology for any and all grieving to anyone I may have offended in my immediate circle and to the world.
May we have a wondrous new beginning of reverence, forgiveness, respect, and joy as we evolve our grand souls as one. So be it, indeed!
With deepest gratitude and love,
May God bless us all,
Jordan David River
