Robert Silbert brought 25 acres the on old Macadamia nuts farm on the Red Rd. He intended for a community of permaculture. Then he was working the land by trees tearing the macnut trees with the big machine, DC 9! The next had a big kitchen and garage. From there he built two dormitories, each room have two Queen size beds! And no bathrooms! The agriculture greenhouse with stage. A swimming pool, hot tub! All of while renting room w/out permit!!! And of course the tantric festivals! Robert Silbert has no business doing Tantric healing! He is non qualified! Massage? He did not renew his massage license. Psychology education from the university? I don't think so. Tantric is specifically from Buddha tradition. It takes a lot of training to do it right by the tradition. He makes a lot of mistakes. Now,he changed his mondi All about the woman runs the place. But Robert Silbert owns Lotia Place. I guess you hear got kicked of" Furthermore, he has been kicked out of the International School of Tantric Arts, the Ecstatic Dance Festival will no longer work with him, he has been reported to list servers such as Yoga Trade as "exploiting women sexually and volunteers for work." In my own and many other's experiences, he is an incredibly unsafe person to have on the islands, particularly because he is working in the "healing" and "tantric" sex-field on the islands. I believe he should not be permitted to be around children, young women or working in any sort of healing modality. I also recently learned that he is marketing himself as a "Licensed Massage Therapist"but has not renewed his licensing and is no longer under the board of massage therapists. I also have learned that his land is illegally operating as he does not hold proper permits. I share this to demonstrate his character and his lack of integrity. He is not abiding by the laws of Hawaii and continues to cause extreme harm to people such as myself. While I wish things could have gone differently that fateful day and that I reported him sooner, I am grateful to have the support and ability to do so now. Please help in stopping this man."
