Re: BKism: Spirits, super consciousness or psychology?

01 Dec 2023

I would always think that Destruction is round the corner. I did not give importance to my personal growth in career, education, family. I always considered the present education, political, social system bogus and lost all interests from it. Yes, indeed. In terms of life choices, the worst choice ...

Re: BKism: Spirits, super consciousness or psychology?

I always wonder why BK Meditation works so effectively that the people just pulled to follow the BKism no matter how much sacrifices they have to do just to feel that hike and feel good experience. I know it's like a drug which initially boost your confidence and feeling elevated in the early years...

HI ex-l, I am not here to debate whether or not ghosts, spirits, demons, exist "objectively" or not. Nothing exists "objectively". But it does. Then again, do the multitudes of ancient gods & demons that have ever been named, believed in, experienced by people in the time of ...

Re: BKism: Spirits, super consciousness or psychology?

My intention wasn't to say that it was actually divine, just that it can be a subejctive belief. Maybe I should have used inverted commas? I was trying to say that the experience had when there is, a) prolonged direct eye/face-to-face contact combined with b) the mental processes that are part of th...

It was always during such one to one meditations with new students that I've have experiences that I was incapable of inducing myself. But that leads us a little off this topic of discussion. Not really. There is a connection (pardon the pun) to the topic. The answer is often in the question. The r...

Re: Are the BKs Knocking On The Devil's Door?

The origins of sufism are not truly known. What seems evident is that early sufi practices were similar to other sramana/shamanic/hermitic & tantric traditions that have been around since before the appearance of Aryans or Muslims in India. Ancient Indian sramana could be Buddhist, Jain, Vedics,...

We're talking about "just another charismatic" cult leader with conscious and unconscious motives. I think the unconscious motives are what give the aura of sincerity and potent energy to such people because these come from a deeper place. But once the train of events is in motion, it take...

Re: Are the BKs Knocking On The Devil's Door?

Very good long form answer there ex-l. People create their gods and their societies in their own image. But they aren't completely original. We only understand new things in relation to what we already understand, so any "successful" new religious idea or group will be a variation on an al...

Sorry i m upset today so not able to control my feelings apologies... You are allowed to be upset and to express your feelings. We all feel that way sometimes, to pretend otherwise is to lie to ourselves or to others. Whether he was outrightly a fraud from the very beginning or was just a lesser mo...

Re: Why does all human DNA go back to Africa not India?

A new look at Ötzi the Iceman’s DNA reveals new ancestry and other surprises Ötzi was balding, dark-skinned and didn’t have ancestors from the Caspian steppe Interesting new insights. I was amused by the finding that white, or rather lighter coloured, skin developed much later than previously thoug...

Re: BKWSU UK Banking Millions Every Year

12 Oct 2023

It seems their charitable activities, purple colour in the pie chart, are costed at £2.3million. A rubbery figure for sure. How are they evaluating the cost of their charitable work? Are they including all expenses, food electricity, rates, on properties 24/7/365 or are they separating out the cost ...

Re: What is sakash according to BK?

03 Oct 2023

Not sure why you are asking this here. Most here are not BKs In my opinion, and my experience, one person sharing a sandwich with one hungry person does more to relieve hunger than a thousand people meditating on ending world hunger. Better than 10,000 people sending their "good wishes" af...

Re: If things going in this level

Jayadeepan, I am not sure if you have bothered looking around this forum to see what its purpose is before writing your recent posts. This forum is for ex-BKs, survivors of BKs, those exploited or abused by BKs, friends and family of those still in BKs etc. Although we do sometimes discuss matters s...
