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

lol ex-brahma! Some much needed light relief :)

ex-l: I understand that the most effective way to deal with trolls is not to feed them.

from the document posted above by SeekerOfRealTruth: Lekhraj being uneducated man, based on information he could gather from all around, created a cult to live his fantasy of self deification This sums up his game nicely :). This document ably exposes some of the simple nonsense that BapDada preache...

I never understood why so many BKs seemed to enjoy that kind of celebration. I found it fake and tacky and that it was a waste of my time, not to mention that it was a terrible waste of resources. Dadi Janki never impressed me much. I had a few nice experiences with her but so did I with many "...

(back on topic) As a teenager I was an atheist, and scientific rationalist. This was my response, from an early age, to the feeble attempts of my churchy parents and The Church of Scotland to teach me their path. But once I hit my 20s - nigh on 20 years before encountering the BKWSU - I became more ...

Go deeper, tell me about your personal experience with Dadi Janki, did you talk to her? If you did I do not understand why you are talking about her dress or her crown, because anyone that I know that has shared a simple chat with her, and I did it many times in Madhuban, has a sweet and powerful m...

Victims are just whisked away to senior, or sometimes in ambulances. Yes. I think the BK setup is dangerous in this way: they themselves don't seem to know what they are dealing with. They teach arrogance and superiority, whereas real spirituality is based on humility. For me it is much safer to do...

I thought that if my experiences were not coming from God they ought to be coming from within myself ... and it works!!! Yes - I tried that, and it worked for me also. Then after a year or two I tried having Yoga with (What BKs call) Shiva again, and that worked the same but much more powerfully. T...

Truly divine beings don't trick, deceive and mislead ... it's as simple as that. But who is doing the trickery? Are you saying it is the BK God (Shiv Baba)? Is it not Lehkraj (Brahma Baba) and his spiritual army who are doing the trickery? That's the way I see it. In my own practical experience, BK...

What is false, or promotes falsehood, cannot be "high" (elevated) however "powerful" it is. Very true. The power that I experience in BK circles is there despite their vicious behaviours, and not because of them, I am sure. I assume that there are a great many BKs who are actual...

I feel that BapDada long since lost his grip on the controls! The lunatics took over the asylum. BapDada tells them what to do, but they ignore him. None of this is any surprise, as the basic premise and design of the BKWSU is so flawed: a traditional control-based fear-based hierarchical religious ...

If we think about the BKWSU in the West, political ambition has certain overtaken any idea of "love" and the chosen leaders can be *exceptionally* cold hearted and cut off. Would that also be fair to say? I think so, yes. I don't know what alternative BK planet Patzcuaro was on - certainl...

This is partly why it instruct its adherents to develop "cold detachment" from all human beings, not just family and friends. Do they instruct this? Certainly they practice cold detachment (many of them, not all), and accordingly it will no doubt be part of the nonsensical dogma that they...

E Romain's report on the child abuse at the BK headquarters. Have you read it? Yes, I read it years ago. I was shocked too. I was further shocked by subsequent revelations from other sources, not all of which are yet in the public domain. And I agree that the most shocking aspect was the BK respons...

Personally I realized, after educating myself on this forum, that God had not spoken the Murlis and therefore that the BK teachings could not be held as truth. A very neat summation. This is the crux of the matter, as far as BK "knowledge" is concerned. There is much to be gained from stu...

ex-brahma: I agree more or less with what you are saying (although I do not think "Gulzar" is pretending, though I cannot prove otherwise). Patzcuaro, it is not possible to remain closely involved with the BKWSU without becoming immersed in the BKWSU worldview. The fundamental basis of the...
