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

It seems to have become intermittent now, sometimes very slow and sometimes normal. And it seems to matter which set of links I navigate through - going via ”new posts” seems to be the worst. OK, as its ”improving” and others have no issue, this thread can be left until further developments. Thanks ...

Interesting article about the culture that grows out of elevating celibacy above sexuality. The author, Stephanie Dowrick, is well known in Australia as a popular and successful author of many "self-help” books, columnist (eg like this one) a psychologist and counsellor, an ordained interfaith ...

it took 30 seconds to submit that last post.

For the last few weeks, I have experienced this site, particularly the forum area, to be very slow when loading any page - whether just reading posts, using < backpage arrow or previewing a post (this post took 20 seconds to load a preview as I checked it) or for submitting etc. Any of these actions...

…the denial of sexual and emotional satisfaction, and the channeling of these onto Lekhraj Kirpalani is still part of their model, as you first post on this subject documented, i.e. the wife of another man, carrying out mentally infidelity using pictures of an idealised Lekhraj Kirpalani Infidelity...

Why is it that the “end of the world is nigh” impulse can produce such positive, life affirming effects, yet can also lead to a bunker mentality – the “doomsday cult” – that is anything but socially constructive? The difference may lie in how the impulse is used. If it supports teachings and a life...

"It's not going to work. Although they have intentions to "save" the relationship ... I suppose it depends on what the relationship is aiming to be or achieve. They are well beyond the first flutter of the ”romantic” level, a long established relationship that, in many ways, has the ...

I don not understand your logic.

All this seems to say is that every country that was on the security council had a president or prime minister. Yeah, so?

Good point there b.p,

It seems as long as one feels nicely cosseted in feelgood self-reassurring meditations or prides oneself in how virtuous one is compared to those nasty others, then things like truth or consistency or history or facts or objective realities can be ignored.

A gemologist is not a geologist. They know how to value gems, they are not necessarily fully-versed in the science of what creates them. (BTW, It appears I am thereby partly responsible for your encultification ex-l, for it was I who partly ”convinced” said gemologist to join the institution to whic...

Arvind: If anything is natural, it will not give you pain. It is natural to be injured and feel the pain of that injury (or even die), if you trip and fall off a ledge. It is natural to fear what will happen if you fell from the ledge, so you are careful or you avoid it. It is natural to feel distr...

Gem found on Australian sheep ranch is the oldest known piece of Earth, scientists find Scientists using two different age-determining techniques have shown that a tiny zircon crystal found on a sheep ranch in Western Australia is the oldest known piece of our planet, dating to 4.4 billion years ag...

They are not supposed to buy properties because the End of the World is coming. If they - and any other apocalyptic groups - thought it through, they’d realise that taking out a long-term loan, like a mortgage, means they never have to pay it back ever! Because, well, the bankers will all be ”Om Sh...
