A little bit of feedback on how the Brahma Kumaris are seen by non-BK Indians. From John Dayal a member of the National Integration Council, Government of India on when "When friends begin to speak like foes", a commentary on the hate-filled rhetoric of the Janata Party chief Subramanian Swamy.
At present, the dialogue between Christians and other minorities is very little. The formal dialogue is limited to casual and occasional contact by the Catholic Bishops Conference of India and its equivalent federations in the protestant churches meeting once or twice a year with sundry Maulanas and Granthis, the rk Mission, the Bahais and the Brahma Kumaris for some lip service to common issues of peace and brotherly love.
There has never been serious political dialogue between minorities on issues of development and demands to the union and state governments.
