[Soryu] wrote a very frank account of the whole episode in the quarterly report the next month, which is published on the website and sent out to supporters via hard copy. Shekinah describes this as a cover-up, but it seems to me like the exact opposite of a cover-up
I found this here. The most relevant paragraph is:
> another OAK resident broke our resident commitment. While it is common for young adults in a residential, intimate environment to form strong bonds, CEDAR does not allow sexual contact between students who are training together. Most concerning is intimate relations within a hierarchy. Recently, two trainees at OAK fell in love, had sexual relations, and thus broke the residential agreement. They immediately communicated to others about their relationship. As a result, one of them continues training as a resident but has left their position of leadership. The other trainee returned home after completing their term of training. In order to maintain a good monastic container, CEDAR sent senior leaders from MAPLE to OAK. CEDAR will be more involved in overseeing and supporting each branch going forward. We have faith in OAK as it moves through this difficult, developmental growth.
Which leaves out many facts Shekinah has reported, some of which are disputed but others of which you (Alex) have either confirmed or not denied. Most obviously the description of you both being “trainees” and the obfuscated reference to a “position of leadership”, which I don’t consider an accurate description of “executive director”.
