Trustraising and Transformation;
When it comes to giving, some people will stop at nothingAs I did, each of them looked up to thank me with their eyes in the Indian custom of drishti. After about three of these encounters, I was having difficulty keeping my tears out of the milk. They were tears of the joy I saw reflected in their uplifted faces.
This is a Tom Munnecke quotation, is not it? Tom is some sort of BKWSU supporter, what exactly is his relationship? Is he a BK, ex-BK, microphone or just contact soul?
I read this article some time ago, the "Indian custom of drishti" is bull. There is no such thing. Don't village kids just stare at strange foreigners? What the heck is a kid suposed to do when they don't speak the language!?! The guy was obviously in his Honeymoon Period with the BKWSU ...
Unfortunately the link does not work to go to the article, could you please give us proper attributions for your articles, e.g. the author, the media and their relationship with the BKWSU?

Abrahma Kumar is correct. This is not a news story.
It is just another, "
Super BK Dadi Janki meets more famous people and someone with a real title!" story. Exactly what I feared.
Can you qualify
IF the BKWSU raised more money for the Tsumani victims ... how much it was ... how much the actual organization gave?
"Co-operation" means nothing ... is it just the BKWSU sucking up for the sakes of service. Look, even the Tsumani victims got their donations along with Raja Yoga leaflets ... presumably telling them not to worry, the End of the World was coming and there were going to be more natural disasters to come!
I am sorry to be a cuss but I want to see something more fundimental, more real. I want to know "how much money", not just "IF someone gives it ...". But, please keep trying and ask the BKWSU to qualify their PR. This is the problem. BKs just are not used to hearing individuals questioning them ... and it burts the bubble of their illusion they are doing such wonderful good as God's only true instruments.
Charity in my book is digging sewers, giving money, breaking your ass for someone else ... and not asking for a reward for it, not even trademarking it. "Incognito good karma is the highest" it says in the Murlis. Or used to ...
