Hello Affected BK, It's never too late to start life afresh. Tell yourself repeatedly that BK life is not the 'be all and end all' of your existence. There's more to life ... genuine and good things like charity, professional growth, improving personal relationships ... basically, taking life as it ...
Ex-I, during your time as a BK, how did your BK peers feel/react when they realised that predictions on 'Destruction' had failed ? Did their perception about the BKs change even a bit? And how exactly did the BKs cover up their glitch ... just by renaming and reinterpreting Destruction as 'Transform...
Oh, they just love meeting and getting clicked with the celebrities and VIPs ! That gives 'em sufficient content to fill up the pages of their monthly magazines. But according to the BK view, aren't these VIPs supposed to be 'low-class impure souls' because they don't follow the tenets of BKism and ...
After so many proven failures, they should atleast stop calling themselves as students of a 'Godly university' because God is not running it, for sure.
It's being run by a group of ordinary human beings ... fallible human beings.
The editing of the content of the 'original' Murlis only to remove inflammatory statements/words and then re-writing them to suit their agenda. is not this sufficient evidence ? Or may be you can ask your centre in charge about whether the Murlis she reads out to the class daily is exactly the same ...
It's not just about the inclusion and exclusion of the Destruction dates from the Murlis. It's about the fact that the BK leadership has not been honest with their innocent and 'unquestioning' adherents right from the very beginning and that the foundation itself of their 'religion' is weak and base...
Very nice compilation ! Going through it made me feel that these women who dedicated their entire life to genuine 'social service' of one or the other kind, would have been inherently 'spiritual'. I mean did they have to join any organisation & do their foundation course, attend regular classes ...
From: Rajneesh on the BKWSU changing date of Destruction (1980s) Unfortunately, for BKs, 'service' only means one thing - to expand the presence of their centres and to attract adherents who will contribute their Tan (physical body), mann (mind) & most importantly dhan (money) to keep the centr...
true spirituality must be equal opportunities for all. I do not see any equality in the BKs' pecking order and think that as far as marriage or relationship issues are concerned, rules are much relaxed and flexible for Westerners ... Having said that, I am sure there are situations when unnecessary...
I can say this for myself that I wasn't invited or influenced by ex-I, or anyone else, to join this forum and express my 'personal' views about the Brahma Kumaris. In fact, I myself was looking for a platform where I could give feedback about my observations and experience with the BKs since the BKs...
Yes, makes sense to me as well. Actually it was only for general guidance and advices like these that I joined the BKs but when gradually they started pulling me into other irrelevant things (and tried to make me their follower & forced me to believe everything they claimed) that I completely lo...
Soon, I chose to change my lifestyle rather. I am glad you did that instead of falling prey to the irrational ideologies of BKs. They're foolish enough to think that it's only through 'them' that people can discover and know everything about God. To which she said, you scientists have to change you...
