Information, not control
We do not promise to control anyone's mind or decisions.
Someone in your family keeps paying a practitioner, and the savings are going
Your mother has been sending money to a man in India every month. Your brother has pawned his wife's gold for a ceremony. Your sister speaks of nothing but what the baba has told her. You have tried saying it is a con and been told you have no faith. From Manchester you are watching someone you love being drained, and nothing you say gets through.

We do not promise to control anyone's mind or decisions.
Terms and traditions are explained honestly.
Consult from any city in Hindi or English.
We do not offer anything against another person's will.
A son discovers that his widowed mother has transferred several thousand pounds over a year to a practitioner who promises to bring back her estranged daughter. When he objects, she weeps and says he wants her to give up hope. He does not know how to answer that.
People pay because they are in pain about something real: a broken family, an illness, loneliness. The practitioner offers hope and attention, which nobody else may be giving. Attacking the belief feels to them like attacking the hope. They defend it, and hide the payments.
A consultation helps you find an approach that keeps their trust while protecting them. We can also speak with your relative, if they wish, as people who share their tradition and make no promises. No outcome is guaranteed.
What they are trying to fix. Start there.
Curiosity and concern reach further than ridicule.
Limits on accounts, involving the bank, and other family members.
The problem your relative believes is being solved. The main service page describes how sessions run.
See the consultation processThey hear contempt for their faith. Ask questions instead.
If they are hiding payments, shame is already at work. Be someone they can tell.
With an elderly or unwell relative, seek advice on safeguarding.
Begin with the trouble itself. "I know how much you miss her. Tell me what you are hoping will happen." Listen. Offer real help with it: a letter to the estranged daughter, a visit, a doctor's appointment. Hope with another outlet relies less on the practitioner.
Then ask gentle factual questions. How much has it come to? What was promised, and by when? What happened when you hesitated? Let them reach the conclusion. Suggest a pause of a month to see whether anything changes. If large sums are at risk, speak to their bank, which may have a team for protecting vulnerable customers, and report fraud to Report Fraud (formerly Action Fraud) on 0300 123 2040.
The session is online and can be joined from Manchester, with or without your relative. We speak respectfully of faith. Birth details are optional.
You usually cannot by argument. Patient questions and a trial pause work better.
Say that you respect their faith and are worried about this particular person and the money.
Only in limited circumstances. Speak to the bank, and take advice if capacity is in doubt.
Sometimes people accept caution from within their own tradition. We can try, if they are willing.
