I'm wondering if anyone can give some info about this man. Was watching/listening to one of his seminars, but it was filled with bad language, don't know why, and he said once or twice something about the rules of the universe. Links would be very good, or other reliable sources. Thank you.

Do you have a link to that seminar you were watching/listening to?

No, it's something my husband downloaded.

sorry.

In the seminar, he was using an audience member, a woman, to discuss depression. She volunteered, and she was able to go in and out of her depression. Also, the seminar would break every so often, to a woman's voice describing the psychological issues being discussed and what Tony was doing.

Funny, I saw Tony Robbins getting a hamburger on my way home from work a few weeks ago. It was surreal. The man is huge, and most of him seems to be teeth.

He had a medical problem in the mid-ninties and something was discovered at that time that explained his growth and large hands and feet.

He's not WOF - more like New Age if you want to attach a "religion" to his "program."

Yes, I think he is more New Age than anything else.

I think he is like 6'6" or 6' 7" tall and yes, with very white teeth.

Yea, with the all cuss words, and some of the stuff he was saying, I knew there was no way this man was giving "Christian" counseling. I mean he was good, I give him that, but I was actually put off by the language. It was so vulgar you couldn't bear it, but in a group setting like that, he should have been more tasteful, but I guess that's how he was relating to the girl who volunteered. Actually, I thought her whole "depression" thing was an act, 'cause she said she does it to get attention, but he kept going with it. At one point he sort of said something about Christianity, but not good, but a bit insulting.
