Re: How did we fool ourselves into believing the Brahma Kumaris?

23 Feb 2009

It is thought about knowledge that gives those who study the Murli their strength. As thought becomes more focused waves of energy can move from the meditator into the environment. For some a spiritual laser beam emerges from the forehead. One does not have to be taught to use it, when it emerges th...

A myth is a myth. The difference between a myth lying in the pages of a book and a living myth that is interacting with an individual is great. If something works for me that's great. I can attempt to share it with others but there is no guarantee that I can. Sometimes I get so excited about an idea...

Re: Karma

Even the planets follow their course. The thought world must have its laws as does the physical world. Many drive a car and leave the servicing to the mechanic. To some extent I see what you are talking about. Internal control is superior to external control and if some use "karma" to cont...

Crickey Tete,

You make me feel so owwwld. Whether you write a pm or something here it always warms the cockles of my tired owwwld heart ;).

When you are told that you are special, the truth is all around.

A beautiful butterfly gently flaps its wings and ex-I becomes so eloquent.

Try it again butterfly, maybe you're on to something here.

Re: Karma

On the contrary ex-I, I think we know a fair bit. First there is the touchstone that any action performed with a virtue in it is good karma. As thought is the basis of action, attention should be directed to thinking thoughts and creating attitudes which result in worthy actions. Lots of people stru...

Yes, how did we fool ourselves into believing the Brahma Kumaris? All this stuff about the incarnation of God in Bharat, the only country in which God comes. It really is a lot to swallow, is not it? Perhaps Knowledge enables a merely human mind to recreate the divine incarnation of God. If such is ...

Therapeutic Myths

19 Feb 2009

how can that which is not true create true experiences? India has what are called Therapeutic Myths, one of these is, "The Greatness of Saturn". I lift from a book by Robert E Svoboda that I have mentioned elsewhere. Myth cannot speak to a soul from which it is barred by intellectual over...

Re: How did we fool ourselves into believing the Brahma Kumaris?

On perusing this thread one particular thing jumped out at me. It was ex-I's reference to Ancient Raja Yoga as taught by the BKs being traceable back to the 1950's. Sometimes it seems as if The Knowledge is an expression of an experience. As one's internal energy level increases, it is possible to e...

Thanks ex-I for your encouragement, but is open debate allowed in a yogic kingdom? Surely it's the comb or brush rather than the mirror that keeps one well groomed. ;)

Reducing daily spamming by the creation of the new forums was a smart move.

I ain't been here long though I know a little about the moderator input on this and the previous forum. If I know a little lots of other people know a lot more. In this Forum, I have been "standing on the shoulders of giants." My Bansy, how tall you are! In Madhuban, I met Didi. She and Da...

Hi ex-I, Don't need any more .info thanks. Don't need any more compulsion either. The extent that I choose to act or not act on Knowledge is my choice. It is the same for everyone, even if they do feel compelled. What is meant by Destruction anyway? This is not the place to go into deeply spiritual ...

Re: A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum

It seems to me that this forum has certain parallels with the BK world. The BK invite others to align themselves with their aims, similarly here one is invited to align oneself with certain aims. There is also talk in both camps about becoming strong. We each have to ask ourselves what is best for u...

Well here I am again. :oops: Thanks for your responses. I have always respected the private message set up. When I ask who sent a message and I get a reply from "Admin" that we are a "loose consensus" the normal rules of pm etiquette do not apply. That is why I posted the message...
