Re: Another day, another BK front organisation: Onepoint One

18 Mar 2024

Not to mention the decades of wholesale destruction of the Brazilian Amazon rainforests where farmers slash and burn ever more areas to grow feed for the cattle that are turned into Big Macs - and now the Cerrado, a huge Savannah area also being turned to feed for fast food outlets ( not just McDona...

ex-l asked "Clarification here, please. Oxford Analytica or Cambridge Analytica? It's not clear to me which, or what the connection is". In my post, immediately after I mentioned it, I inserted a link that goes to an article explaining that (knowing it may raise this question). It starts ...

Aishwarya Rajkumar, a 2023 intern at Onepoint The BK centres that operate in countries where, for legal or tax reasons, they say they do not have "members', or in some cases, "students" - they can instead say they have interns - which in this modern age means unpaid workers. Now we'r...

Re: How long are we going to have this BK fraud happen aroun

15 Mar 2024

Wish you good luck with this podcast venture, it can do much good. The BKs have deep pockets and have a large network of contacts in many professions. May i suggest you take care to not allow anyone's emotions run away with them in any published episode. Be ready to edit out any claims that if publi...

Brian Bacon was from Melbourne, worked for one of the top advertising agencies and works at the highest levels of corporate and government sectors. He became a BK early 1980s. I remember first meeting him in Madhuban where he ran various workshops of the kind that were the done thing in those days, ...

Mike George and Brian Bacon both brought their advertising/marketing hype style to the BKs. And there's nothing more 1980s neoliberal Law of Attraction " if you ain't a success its your fault/all in your mind " bullsh** than the " You too can be a winner/enlightened being, just follow...

Re: Liftman: A Novel by Anthea Church Inspired by BK Experie

Welcome Anthea. You were quite well known (maybe still are?) globally among BKs because of the books you wrote. To be honest, I never read any, just flicked through a couple of them. I did appreciate though, in the little I did see, that they were filled with universal ideas and values rather than B...

Re: Destruction did not take place in 1976

13 Jan 2024

All I can say is that politicians and society in general have done nothing but help doomsday cults and apocalytic gurus make their predictions seem inevitable

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...

Re: BKism: Spirits, super consciousness or psychology?

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...

Re: BKism: Spirits, super consciousness or psychology?

11 Nov 2023

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?

30 Oct 2023

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,...
