This is a deep spiritual thought for the day

I agree

6 o'clock in the morning. A group of people tries to stay awake whilst staring at a point of light. A teacher, sitting on a "gaddhi" has her eyes wide open, staring at every individual for at least a minute. To stay awake the first five minutes wasn't a big problem. But I knew the gimlet e...

Big business has started in India. A circular has been spread to all BK families in India to encourage them to buy things via the brand new BK webshop: http://BK.infibeam.com/ The new business is started by Karuna Bhai. It seems that the "spiritual borders" have fully collapsed. I won't be...

it is not just who they are ... but HOW MUCH THEY KNOW . Specifically, how much dirt they know. One thing that was pointed out to me early on was just this, that much the leadership is held together by such intrigue. I think you have a good point here. A guy so high on the list of VIP's within the ...

I remember writing down Murli points and points for dharna each and every morning for years. Digging as a miner during the day trying to find the eternal wisdom behind these deep quotes. These Mr Green points are a big relief! No churning required, just smile and nod. That's all it takes.

I think the punishment, if there is one, is arbitrary. Depends on the people "in charge" and how they deal with sexuality themselves. I don't think there is some BKSWU policy in this matter. Same as there is no real policy for so many other things like how to deal with strong emotions or d...

Hoi SudarshanChakra, Dorien heeft gelijk. Wat je sowieso kunt doen is proberen te doorgronden wat het gedachtengoed van de BK inhoudt. Als je dit redelijk op een rijtje hebt, kun je voor een deel de manier van denken van een Brahma Kumari volgen. Dan wordt je een gesprekspartner en heb je een groter...

And those visits are good, Ex-I. They're usually sincere and nice. I never told this story to anyone because still. After so many years, I feel a little ashamed. It was back in the nineties when a pukka BK who lived in the center suddenly left, rented a place for herself and started redecorating he...

Thanks Jannisder for spotting. It seems a bit funny that the lines about the BK are written in 'voltooid verleden tijd': pluperfect (hope this is good English): "Vanaf 1982 is Jacqueline betrokken geweest bij het vredeswerk van de Brahma Kumaris Spirituele Academie". It indicates she is no...

For the occasion of "four Faces of Women", four out of the eight powers seems to be renamed ( softened, more feminine? ) on this website. 1. What used to be 'the power to pack-up' has changed into 'the power to let go'. Maybe this is how "feminism" can be offered? to the young gi...

He-man, Why all these assumptions presenting them as a new discovered truth? Why these labels and categories? I understand it is human to try and get a grip of why things are like they are. Maybe that's what many BKs attracted to the fixed world theory of the BKWSU. Now you put put people in differe...

I have inadvertently done this for 25 years. How totally embarrassing! Hi audacity, I watched the videos of Madeleine Tobias and I want to thank you for sharing. The issue of shame and feeling embarrassed strikes me too. I consider myself as a sensible person and I still find it difficult to unders...

Why are BK not willing to answer questions? I think, dear Jan, because the main teaching is to put a dot in stead of raising question marks. It is simply not done to raise questions. See, the teachings in the Murli are considered to be the truth, the absolute truth. One should 'churn', discover and...

bkti-pit, I do so much agree with you. This is absolutely a classic post. Thanks Alladin, for this stroke of insight.
