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

Never be sorry Abek, that is beautiful. How could anyone find offense at that? Sounds like the first sound piece of strategy i've heard. Nothing incoherent about it. Makes perfect sense. Unfortunately, the 2 of us and our marriage isnt as attractive to him as being an instrument and becoming a vesse...

Well, here we are, in the final stages of the death of a family via the deadly virus of BKitis. Two weeks before he moves out. I can only hope it passes quickly. The strain is immense. He finally admits he started to feel guilty about being with me, about being in a relationship and tried to ignore ...

A very warm welcome to you In the Night. I am sure you will find the forum and the people in it a unique and beautiful place for growth and self discovery. I certainly have. The love and support and pure honesty that has been given to me and the positive effect it has had on my life has been immense...

Hi Alladin, My tongue in cheek humour obviously got lost in the telling. I am sorry. I was only relating a old parable of Sampson and Delilah I heard as a child, link; Samson and Delilah (not that I am a baptist mind you). It tells the story of a man renown for his strength whose weakness was beauti...

Give me a Sampson man, but I wont be Delilah.

Shear off the locks, you shear off a man's strength, so the story goes.

Hi Paul, I could never be a Yogi, I love my hugs and kisses and am a very tactile and affectionate person. :wink: I would like to think firm but fair. My staff used to say that. They also said I was one of the few they felt they could come to no matter what and they were always happy for me to teach...

Hi New World, and welcome to the forum! Guess you learnt a different sort of Information technology than I did, especially programming. Please, I can certainly appreciate your analogy and don't mean to be disagreeable, this is just another opinion, something that this forum is so fantastic for ... f...

I am really glad that cleared that up. And to think I couldn't follow it, dear oh dear. Talk about your writhing in agony ... wish i had a camcorder. And I agree, I think he thinks he is in the Advance Party too. When I said something about it and he disagreed, I asked, "did he read that in the...

Thank God, you can make me laugh. I love the way you bring rational thinking into the irrational world of the BK. No, he has never heard of the research area that Abek asked about. But then again he had never heard of half the stuff I told him either ... that has only come later now he has more know...

Hope you don't mind good people but I thought I should continue this discussion over on this thread. He was particularly reluctant to tell me even this, about being a vessel and has a habit of leaving a lot of detail out. As far as my experience goes, I have never heard a living BKWSU student attrib...

Interesting thoughts. Detachment. Yes ex-l, on the surface that is what the ex told me. It was to lose one's body-consciousness in order to be soul-conscious. However, as usual, the rules are put forward in very simplistic phrases. You must be celibate in order to blah blah ... no mention of the act...

OK, Mum being my mum did not tell me the whole story. The visits happened 3 times. The last time at 4:45 am. All of these for her and I are between 4am and that time. We are not scared or worried. The first 2 times, she was terrified. The last time she had enough of this 'nonsense'. Her words. When ...

Well, it gets stranger and stranger ... this piece ties up with the 'shadow person' on page 8 of this thread. I had not discussed with my mother these events. I, myself, have not been sleeping well lately, and had very intrusive feelings both day and night. My mother tells me this morning that she n...

Dear Katie, my last post was describing MY experiences and my situation and ultimately what I have to do. You and your husband are different people, and I am not a counsellor. You do hear of situations where the person involved has given up the cult in preference to leaving their family. I can only ...

I came to a big realisation today, unless they renounce the BKs as they have renounced their families (that means US), it will never change. They will keep you hanging on by just a thread. Do just enough to keep you hoping because they know how much we love them. We are their comfort, their safety n...
