In 2005, he was accused of copying the fifth part of his book, Shimriti, from a text by Mónica Cavallé,though he later declared that it was "an absolutely involuntary error" while citing sources.
IN MY OPINION HE IS AN EXCELLENT PERSON AND PROFESSIONAL, IN MOST OF HIS BOOKS HE ALWAYS TELL HISTORIES BELONIG TO SOME OTHER AUTHORS BUT HE ALWAYS QUOTED AND LET THE READERS KNOW WHO SAID IT.
HE HAS AN AMAZING POWER OF EXPLAIN ,HELP , AND REACH PEOPLE ...
I DONT CARE WHAT SOME PEOPLE IS ACUSING HIM, HE ALWAYS GOING TO BE MY LIFE MENTOR,I AM WHO I AM BECAUSE HE HELPED ME AND SHOWED ME THE ROAD.
sometimes people cant not accept how come some body can have so much susccess and they can not take it so the ruin a life whitout care about the collateral damage , so they become famous no taking care about how are the crawling to the top,very sad for silvina friera and the rest...
I PERSONALY KNOW AND FOLLED HIM IN MANY OF HIS SEMINARS,BOOKS ,ETC;
FOR A LEAST 9 YEARS AND ALL THIS TIME I HAS BEEN PREACHING ABOUT WHAT HE TAUGHT ME AND I ALWAYS EXPLAINED WHO HE IS AND WHERE THAT PREACHING CAME FROM.
THAT PREACHING IT DOESNT CAME FROM ME ,IT COMES FROM HIM.
AND IT WILL BE RIDICULOUS THAT SOMEBODY CLAIM THAT I AM COPING HIM OR IMPERSONATE HIM
I AM GRAFEFULL TO HAVE HIM IN MY LIFE : )
