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

After reading all these posts, I am waiting for the moment some BK in charge will pick up this idea. As a new pastor, the Rev. David Stallion of Opelika, Ala., is looking for ways to become a better minister in his Baptist church. The Rev. Walter Sims of Birmingham, Ala., taught a class called "...

Is the aim to understand what is really going on As a BK, very often I thought I was very non spiritual because I tend to believe what I saw and what I saw were peoples actions and behavior. But ofcourse at first I believed what I heard when I came into Gyan. At the same time I believed what I expe...

I often think it is impossible for Dadi Janki, and the other Seniors, to question or doubt anything that they say or do. To admit that you've been a fraud that has ruined thousands of lives would just lead to the same outcome as Hitler: suicide. Now that's a stroke of insight. I am just reading par...

I like this post. I am glad you do. It's great to meet so may people here with the same experiences and stories. Ofcourse I knew there were many out there in similar situations as mine, but here it's written everywhere. I can read hours without getting tired. A source of knowledge to me. Yesterday ...

I did not think about the future - because there was none - or the difference in wage earnings and security between a professional and an untrained person. How many more of us are there? Now I am thinking of a slightly different perspective which I guess is typically Indian. I left (for the second ...

The coming together of a group, where enough individuals for whatever reason agree that something worthwhile is happening is a very complex moment. The decision they make is approximately, "this is good and must be protected". At that moment, even if it's subconscious, group effects start...

Het label Spirituele Academie en het pretenderen van kennis verspreiden wekt de suggestie dat er studenten aan deze academie studeren. Het kenmerkende van studeren op een academisch niveau is dat je veel leest, verschillende bronnen raadpleegt, op eigen onderzoek uitgaat, alle beschikbare literatuur...

Not a bad job, not at all. Although some sentences seem a bit odd. The reason for posting in Dutch is because in time I hope some Dutch ex-BKs will join and share their experiences. I do assume not all of them are capable of discussing their feelings and thoughts in English, and leaving them out bec...

Thanks (dankjewel), ex-l I'ts much more easy to express oneself in their own language duty bound. That's why there's a seperate space at this forum. Otherwise we would be double foreigners here ... Oh no, not that again! (Dutch) Het is makkelijker om je uit te drukken in je eigen taal, daarom is er ...

Ja! En dat zonder al je botten te breken. Ik zou zelfs willen zeggen: er is eindelijk écht leven in plaats van alleen maar proberen te overleven in een systeem dat voor je is uitgedacht. Zonder existentiële angsten van eeuwige verdoemenis bij het maken van een fout. Zonder depressies door het nastre...

Well, this girl knows how to write a story! She's got real talent :-). And, yes, she knows about BK life very well ... where does it remind me of ... 63 times ... 63 ... what was it with this number?

Onderstaande brief werd ontvangen door actieve en betrokken BK's. Het is duidelijk dat ze geen behoefte hebben om gezien te worden of in verband gebracht te worden met een "anti-partij". De groep schrijft dat ze zich zorgen maakt over het welzijn van BK's en over de organisatie van de Bra...

Dear Cranuta, Even if you get someone out of the BK system, it usually takes many years for an ex-BK to develop another mindset. I have been deeply involved for 6 years. When I felt lonely, I had not enough 'Yoga' (connection with the Supreme Soul God); whenever I felt attracted to someone, it was '...
