Brahma Kumaris Info - the Truth about BK Meditation
Independent thought about the Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University

Once Nirmala Kajaria said at one of her classes for "teachers", to encourage people not to give up their studies. Ever practical, Nirmala said that if they give up their studies, and then give up Raja Yoga, they have nothing. So, we would encourage newbies to keep going with whatever they ...

Thanks for the prompt replies and further updating. The assassin story ... one of the Madhuban Brothers, probably Atam Prakash, was responsible for this enlightenment. Interesting about Lekhraj's birth year. But it fits the pattern of misinformation. As for the UN, I was an NGO delegate for the BKs ...

My deepest sympathy and condolences to Esther's family. Nothing prepares you for suicide, no amount of "knowledge" or "detachment" would prevent even the most hardened BK for feeling grief or loss at such a time, no matter how they might try to hide it. 18th January suggests that...

You have to laugh at the boneheadedness of the BK who used this forum to post an advertisement for Maureen Goodman's program. Sounds like a relatively new BK as anyone else might have just a little more sensitivity - he probably thought he was being clever! Probably one of the London Brothers totall...

Staring at someone, publicly, in complete silence, usually in a room with low red light, with that person often physically lower than you? It's a form of abuse, of bullying, intrusive at best, threatening at worst. Forget the "transfer of energies" hocus pocus and other pycho-spiritual bab...

I look at this and I see the fence-sitters, the laissez-fairers and the "she'll-be-right-mate" answers. I only wish someone had said to me, don't do this! If someone had at least tried to talk some sense into me, I would have reacted negatively, for sure, but I would have taken away what t...

History of the BKs? During my last few visits to Madhuban, I tried hard to get through the mythology and find something out about Lekhraj, but it was impossible to penetrate and find the person. I spoke with Dada A.K., Vishwa Rattan, Jagdish (in Delhi as well as Madhuban) and fished around as much a...

It's interesting, the mind games and self-deception become entrenched and go on years after leaving Raja Yoga. How many of you ex-BKs still believe in the soul? Or that God exists and is still Baba, and that it was really those nasty Sisters in India who twisted all the "pure knowledge" an...

I knew Lee James from his first appearance at the Surry Hills Raja Yoga Centre in Sydney, Australia, some time in the mid-eighties through to his move to Japan. Lee was a highly gifted individual - who can forget his workshops about getting people onto tables and, of course, his brainchild; the Peac...

Probably the hardest thing with leaving the BKs was looking in the mirror and saying, "You got totally sucked in". There is no Golden Age, no 5,000 year cycle, no 900,000 deities and all the rest of the babble that this organisation spouts. BapDada is nothing more than a creation of Dadi G...
