Haven't been with them for 20 years now. Still in my heart though. It's a bit like High school. Whether a good or bad or mixed experience, it was an important formative part of your biography. There were kids you hung out with just because you shared the same location and subjects. Some may have be...
I only knew him a little. I remember his character and personality more than I remember any particular discussions. I think the reason he left BKs was probably what you state. There's little room for a capable male to be in the spotlight much in the BKs. If they get into it, they're meant to turn it...
Wow, had read of a few pages. Yes you can easily substitute the words Brahma Kumaris for every time it says Shunyamurti or Robert Shubow. It's really sad when you criticise and leave something behind then become that yourself. It's something that happens with many who were seduced/groomed and abused...
What I saw in my time was a great spiritual way of existence which was being converted into a religion by the introduction of ritual and blind faith. Something they themselves said was not a good thing. It was becoming a new religion That's the way it has always been, especially since they came to ...
Naval, If you are unwilling to make effort to direct your attention elsewhere and insist on staying fixated on this, staying attuned to the BK wavelength, then there is nothing anyone else can do for you. You have not given one positive response to any of the suggestions offered, instead you have on...
HI Naval,, i have read these posts with interest. It is almost impossible to understand exacly what you are experiencing through words on a screen but what i will offer is this. Sometimes the way to resolve some problems is so obvious we don't even notice them. As the old saying goes ”it takes two t...
I’d like to share this article, brilliantly deep yet wide-ranging, with anyone who has an interest in making sense of the experience of being in the world, how is it we experience it the way we do, what we look for in self, others, culture and society, including politics. And how we can reconcile wi...
8 hours of meditation per day! It appears many no name BKs have been dying of Covid-19. Just how is that's going to protect anyone from a virus? Well, if you are meditating for 8 hours, you aren’t going to be moving about as much to transmit or catch the virus, so that protects you and others. They...
That’s a good summary becuase.parmeshwar that i think applies globally. As i said earlier, with such belief systems, they are not obliged to even adhere to their own internally consistent and cohesive logic, let alone correlation with objective facts and evidence. So now that the new chapter waits t...
I don't really know much about what goes on these days in terms of what BKs are thinking or rationalising when real events upset the apple cart of their Gyan. From what I have ascertained in the last decade or so, they really don't care about consistency, as long as they feel good within themselves,...
If you ask any nurse, they will tell you it's not uncommon for the chronically ill to go downhill then suddenly appear to improve just before they die. In fact, the experienced ones can often tell when the recovery or improvement is the sign of death coming not far behind. So it may not have been fa...
If he’d given her dowry back without question, the judge would note the husband’s acting in good faith by not seeking to profit from her, which leaves her looking like a gold digger.
