Re: Questions that are never asked - well not at our centre

02 Jun 2006

I mean we remember Buddha and Abraham who came not long after this event - maybe even within the lifetime of some who lived through the change - but no one bothers to discuss or record the massive confusion which must surely have resulted from the event itself!?!? Good points and good to have you o...

Re: what's the point

02 Jun 2006

Does anyone see a point of light randomly ? . Yes, I did a lot and I still do. Indeed, I started a topic on the xBKchat forum about this. The " septic skeptic " take on it will be a phenomenon to do with your retina detaching itself from the back of the eye but I do not accept that. Ditto...

My dog loves cucumbers, tomatoes, bell peppers, watermellon, blueberries, dahl, avacados, okra, my wifes soups etc. Boy, this must take the awar for the most " off topic " thread of all time *BUT* try some seaweed on your dog too. I had both a Weimaraner and a Red Setter and they used to ...

There will certainly be interesting scenes when Dadi Gulzar leaves the body as Baba has said he will use no other medium (1969). erm, its not as if God hasn't changed her mind before now ... ! ;-) http://www.just-a-minute.org/ I checked out the website ... It looks like the BKWSU has gone all stree...

I was in possesion until recently of some very old BK literature including the original unedited versions of the books like 'the gates of heaven with all the old pictures and Maryadas.......in the original version which you cannot get now, they stated that tea was tasmic ( i think that's right, the...

Andrey's defense mechanism

29 May 2006

Andrey, you turn everything into a ten minute BK lecture and use it as a defensive mechanism. If you are that lonely you should open a centre and give lectures to whoever turn up and see if they stay. Or go back in time and do what the BKs did, go to libraries, spiritual churches, New Age centres an...

I like from the Murlis the saying that decision is not to be made and decision has already been made. If she is my soul mate will I be able to lose her? Baba says there are cases of someone leaving his husband or wife, but is ther the practice of leaving a Brother or Sister? Of course there are. I ...

My feeling is that this came from the first generation of Westerners coming into Gyan and going, " Oh, Dadi ... look at this! You look like and angel, you are an angel! " and then it was adopted The term "angelic" is used in the Avyakt Murlis (English translation) - starting fro...

Defining Angels

28 May 2006

I wanted to start a thread on the definition of what we understand to be Angels as it - or they - are a much used metaphor within the BKWSU theology. The image that the BKWSU have adopted is distinctly Neo-Classical, angels in the mode of Victorian and Christian representation of Classical Greek and...

When did Angels enter the BK theology?

28 May 2006

Hi we are documenting the changes and developments in BK lore, I was just wondering when did " Angels " enter the BK theology? It seems to me that the form of angels they consider is a very Western view and not traditional to Hinduism or the Eastern Tradition where may be dakinis, devi, gr...

But God is remembered in Bhakti as the purifier, not as the one who brings knowledge. Sorry, no personal smite intended, but this is not a true statement. Many God/s or incarnations of God/s are known as the bringer of knowledge or Yoga philosophy. So where do they get it when no-one else can come ...

Uddhava wrote:What do you mean 'she may have been right' - you mean that deities have to eat dairy?

Ha! Only Hindu ones ... right in the sense to challenge what might have been ego or bad sanskars.

Re: soul mate

It is such a big fortune to have found him and to have found her. Now what should I do if I have to choose. Don't beat her over the head with Murli points. It does not work! Put Gyan on the backboiler, separate your life. You will regret it if you do not grab the opportunity. The potential of it wi...

Re: Help with Brahma Kumaris Wikipedia Article

24 May 2006

First the guy changed the article, then he (most likely a testosterone-crazed he) deleted the discussion. But all the old versions are there, and more people are there to restore them than to Destroy Destroy Destroy, and the Destroyers start to look rather foolish. Somebody must be having a bad sta...

The ritual of leaving food aside as probably be started by individuals, but I have neither seen this practice and it does not fit with the principle dear to BK world that no food should be waisted. I would agree. I remember stress placed on not wasting food that reached back to the Om Mandali days,...
