radheyshyam,

This is your first day in this forum. Take a look around at the issues discussed in this forum.

Is this the right place to ask this question of yours?

we need an emoticon button for very, very angry ... I think anger is very good at the realization point. But if we allow it to continue, it poisons us. And it turns into ruining our self-esteem which would not help us for survival. I would say, have mercy and love with yourself. We all pay heavy ta...

F.A.C.T.net Inc Fight Against Coercive Tactics Network Since 1993 Since 1993, Discussion, Resources and Support for Recovery from the Abusive Practices of Religions and Cults Church of Scientology found guilty of fraud in France !!! Judge cites ‘obsession’ with financial gain as group is fined $600...

ex-l, My departure is also relatively very fresh in memory like Ray's departure. Leaving a cult is not like resigning from a company. It is more like a reluctant divorce leaving your wife, beloved kids and home which you constructed with your own hands, behind. You take your bag and don't look back....

It is easy to talk about other's wounds and resentments and to give advice. It is, however, very difficult to speak out one's own injuries. It does not depend how big objectively the issue is, it is how deep the hurt penetrated. If it is not processed properly, it hurts after decades. Fresh wounds h...

He-Man, I cannot say that I have understood your post on some biological-medical issues, which is based as you say on your own discoveries. But I have understood this one sentence of your assumption, which is totally wrong: gay sexuality and such is one of the most severe crimes we can do to ourselv...

I must say that I do not take credit for the idea above. The credit belongs to someone else. Whoever thought of this idea please join the forum or please let somebody else speak your thoughts. I have the feeling that we are now coming closer to puzzle out the mystery around the BKWSU, run by bearde...

I would say "Destruction ... absolute celibacy ... the denial of procreation ... detachment ... family breakdown ... karmic pre-determination ..." and other elements of the BKWSU does just that, very cleverly. I do see Brahma Kumarism as life affirming at all. What I see of it now is actu...

I have learned that the spirit world is no closer to God than being alive on Earth. It is just another dimension. Yes, exactly rayoflight. Just like we have here manipulators, swindlers, cheaters, there are many dark souls playing the role of big Saints, Angels, Prophets, as soon as they get one me...

I recently heard from a BK friend who lives in the USA that before going this year he was given instruction on how much he had to give to Madhuban, that he had to put it into an envelope and give it to a specific person. Yes, our groups have been for decades given the instruction - exactly as you a...

Dear Chai chai, This experience of yours about what the BKs understand from being a family and Brothers, is priceless. Nothing could make you realize this fact but your own experience. Never mind. Seven years are a great deal. Now you have time to get in touch again with your own family members and ...

Hi Pari, Honesty is such a virtue, heals relationships. You seem to have a gift, to maintain good relationships with all. My respect, that you care for those who have suffered and are suffering still in an organization, to which we had surrendered our lives once. Why don't you go to India again and ...

audacity, We all went through tough things. O.K. You can call the soul of a tree which you like, the soul of a mountain, of the moon, of mother Earth, of the Ocean, the soul of the Emptiness or the Source, which one you feel close to ... you can tell them how much you respect them and ask them to co...

Pari, I find your style provocative. If you could be able to focus and understand what you read in this forum, you would understand that all ex-members here are only sharing their experiences from their BK years and their thoughts about what harmed them from BK lifestyle and BK teachings and how the...

Dear audacity, my humble contribution to your comprehensive question is, honestly, I have never experienced any spooky influence on my mind or around me during my BK years and afterwards. NEVER. But having believed into such stupidness, and having wasted my years, my time and energy and money for su...
