Mother died, family member crazy, broken marriages, trouble

Some recent messages received ...

My mother passed away recently. My Father joined first 25 years ago and got my mom to join as well.

My mom dedicated 20+ years of her life into this - also at times sacrificing her childrens’ needs. She gave them money, jewelry and also did “haddi seva”.

None of the BKs cared after she died. They didn’t call even once to see how we were doing.

The Senior Sister called a couple of weeks later to find out if we can send our car for their use. That’s all. How cold?

I cannot stand these people. Unfortunately my Father still doesn’t see the light of how they use the BK member/students for money, and other comforts that they need.

My mom used to go to BK and now she is CRAZY…she went there for 4 years and once we moved away…she tried to kill her self…and now after 10 years…she is still crazy we have tried everything we could but it doesnt work..she talks weird…acts up…ITS ALL BECAUSE OF THIS STUPID Brahma Kumari ****…I WISH SOMETHING COULD BE DONE ABOUT THIS.

Can anyone help us?

My Brother and his wife are brained washed with the BK way of thinking (utter madness) so much so that they think the world ends at the end of this year, so my Brother has given up everything he owns and gone to India..(Very Stupid I know), he thinks he’s right, the BK’s are right and everything else is wrong…he gave up paying his bills as well, gave up his business, owes loads of money and thrown everything out onto the streets for anyone to take (drastic..! I know..total madness,i know)

When your at your lowest, (i assume that’s where they were, otherwise how does this explain his actions) you either get back up, dust yourself off and get help, or you turn to spirituality, and unfortunately BK’s prey on people like that from what i have been reading. Then your really F**ked

We only found out about his problems and his mental state just before they went to India.. because I tracked his friend’s number down and called him.. he told us the shocking stuff about him giving everything he owns away..i mean everything… hes left nothing.. and we are so upset but scared for the kids, he has 2 kids, they took along.

Does anyone know of an organization that can help sort out brainwashed idiots, my Brother who will return to the UK soon because he didn’t plan his trip properly or otherwise he would have known he cant live in the BK center in Delhi or Mount Abu until the world ends…so even though he is delaying his return he will eventually return… we need help, he needs a wake up call but who do we contact for help or advise…

We need to take the kids off them but how, without it getting nasty?? How do we make them see some sense, this is not a ideal environment for the kids to be in?

Any advise is welcome. We are worried sick as we need to act now as a family for the kids sake.

How did the BK’s get so big and why are they allowed to do this to people?

BK teaching are blind and can easily break relations. These are specialist in breaking marriages.

I was with this organisation for 8 years. I stopped thinking on my own and isolated myself from the worldly things as per the BKs adivces. I made my mom cried when I stopped consuming food prepared by her. I stopped visiting my parents and spent most of my free time(after work) at the centre. I got a divorce as they told me Baba wants a pure family path which my spouse did not agree too. I would say the meditation was good but I do not think we have to make so many sacrifices to go into a spirituall path. There are many more spritual organisatons that allow you to do what you do while you are in the spiritual path. It was not easy to come out of the organisation after 8 years but I somehow did and am happier now. I had my bad and good times in the organisation. The bad times were more compared to the good ones. I did not elobarate the bad ones to avoid a long comment. I would not advice a friend or a family member of mine to go into this organisation. Thanks

brahmakumaris are only looking for money and nothing else. the teaching are nothing but combinations of all great ideas from all leading American psychiatrist! there religion is only money, god only money, love only money. rest to fool people in the name of god. don’t trust them, they look like sugar and honey but really they are the blood sucking parasites.

Even my mother-in-law who is a Brahma Kumari is trying to break my marriage…you wont believe he gives lectures in their institute…and create mess at home….they think v negative…also they get alota ego and attitude…they never think they r wrong…as they think they are strong believers of god. My mother-in-law thinks she is god now….because Brahma Kumari people make them believe one can be god….
hence comes the ego and attitude…they are sick people…

One definition of THE NARCOTIC DRUG is that it radically changes user’s mental condition and behaviours !

Are Brahma Kumaris teachings different in that respect ?!

In a way, yes.

Whatever they say, and whatever it is, the meditation appears to affect brain chemistry and so it is acting like a drug. Even if it is just like falling in love.

My guess is the drug-like or intoxication period addicts people for as long as it takes to condition and habituate their behaviour to what the BK norm is ... but once it is habit, then it does not matter any more.

I don't know for how long, or for how many people, the experience remains a high or addictive because, in my experience, either most BKs don't have any deep experiences ... or they leave after a few years.

Do you think most BKs are still getting high?

I recall reading in this Forum about the experience of a young "ex-BK" who as BK, used to walk a long distance every day and cross deserted fields during early morning hours, just to get to the center and attend morning meditation class, consciously (or non consciously) aware that she was risking her safety and security !

When sense of judgement is over- ruled by Irresistable desire, then we should definately suspect ... Brain Chemistry imbalance !
