Brahma Kumaris Info - the Truth about BK Meditation

The traditional painting of women ... is considered to be extremely voyeuristic. By whom? I don't think I really understand the point of the reply. I have revealed more of myself than most participants on this forum, particularly those who ask for more - name; location and much much more as stated....

even I have accepted that terry has "moved on" from those earlier positions! Wow!!! The real reason for his being here is something else. Twas just to join in a discussion, no agenda. Some have picked up on my reason for joining the forum - "what makes people tick" - and call it...

Terry, yes, I understood the message in the Verse and Video. I do not consider myself an intellectual but I do consider myself intelligent. Not intended to imply that - when I write, even in response to a particular person, I am conscious of other readers, and there's many whose English is not ...

An interesting post ex-l. Reading it, I feel that you still don't "get" me. I do not recognise the person you are asking the questions of. Firstly, the Levy paper - very interesting, worth everyone's time to read it, for sure. But your excerpt is about winning a court case, vetting a jury ...

Terry. Nice verses [from Ecclesiastes] and nice video. Did you notice the peacock feather image at the back of the stage? Now what does that remind me of? Yes, a realistic rather than idealistic philosophy. The idea if it was missed, is that there is a time for spiritual reflective life, and a time...

Hey, you defined this topic, so it's your baby!

Of course, the sensible thing to do is to "Move On". But could seem like that 'snap out of it' which is so unhelpful for those who are depressed or distressed. Trouble with these forums is no single sentence or post can carry all that one thinks or has said before. I agree with you, of co...

am not sure that I want to be recognized just now so I suppose I will have to be circumspect about how I relate my story just at the moment. And a warm welcome from me to you Starchild. re: your uncertainty about what you write; May I suggest you freely express yourself using a draft email or a wor...

Welcome to the forum Starchild Terry you would seem to have everything worked out. No, just myself and my experiences. I state my positions from there, what has worked for me. I am not a BK supporter as the tag may suggest. To me, there seems to be confusion on this forum about which PART of the BK ...

So with mental slave traders ...This is what I rankle at your repeating of the BKWSU's line ... "no one asks you to join, you can leave at any moment" ... is that I do not believe it is as simple as straightfoward as that. That is part of the myth. All of these key words llike God, Truth,...

What the last two correspondents seem to be missing is that I am agreeing that there is no absolute truth. So you don't like reasoned argument because it reminds you of someone else's argument. Then let' s forget that. The simple point - reality and life is tangible. Truth is intangible. It has no r...

That's easy to say but changes nothing. Please, as you seem so clear on the subject Frisbee, show us where truth exists, if it is not in the mind of the perceiver?

Your suggestion that "everything is one's responsibility" is on a par with the BKs', "It your Karma!" This is a misrepresentation of what I said. Another red herring tactic? When you conditioned and created your child's mind as it grew up, did your child "choose" you o...

That's a contradiction in terms. Not at all, though I understand where you come from with that statement. My benchmark is Einstein's "Truth and Reality are two different things". Truth is related to language. It requires subject and object. In Buddhism , there is the concept of Graha and ...

Ha! Hotel California is probably the song linked to more conspiracy theories than any other! Some of you may remember the Christian cult "Children of God" led by Moses David. I think they were the first to claim it was about them! Here's the chords and lyrics. Hotel California -Lyric.pdf
