Indeed, senior BKs will claim to do so, or their juniors make claims on their behalf that they go about in their 'angelic body' visiting BKs and BK centers.
Yes, SS are leaders in that too, examples. Special service.Real pestering!
I would like to know statistically, how many people have felt "uplifted" by this kind of haunting , and how many have felt persecuted. In decades, I hardly ever heard anybody saying, "I was feeling down or in trouble, and I felt the angelic presence of some SS or the spiritual family helping and protecting me!".
On the other hand I heard of many people who have felt uneasy, guilty, disapproved of, judged and condemned and harassed , practically and subtly. Dharamraj style. Do such perceptions originate from a lack of love and respect for the self or do they come from external sources and attitudes of others?
As usual, the deceptive BK style is that they use specifically coined expressions, in this case including terms like "angelic', so that it makes it look harmless and beneficial, to define what is commonly called "astral traveling" and often reputed as dangerous/crazy.
Of course, BKs despise officially anybody who teaches and performs such a practise. They would lose their credibility. They have put so much effort in gaining some, in disguising themselves, using different fronts in order to be accepted by other religions, governments, and appeal to politicians, professionals, VIPs and the corporate world.
They speak about "subtle service" roughly, they explain how it works, approximately, and encourage their zombies to do it, so that they can invoke and create more zombies, and even call back into the sect those who have left, by disturbing their sleep. The whole BK army is instructed to do that. In fact, more than improving their dharna, behaviour, they are told to create "numbers" in different ways, visible and incognito
, that's what it is. Drawing people to God. Or to the organization and its pockets.
What a nightmare, one really needs the canopy of protection of the Almighty, and a magical blanked to cover up, before going to bed and be safe!
As far as conning people and the dodgy dealings you mention, LittleLamb, it is good that you took time to read on this site. Apart from the large scale, I can also say, and it would probably confirmed by all of us here, that many unexplainable,questionable things happened in our respective centers, against Shrimat, in many areas. I think you were mostly referring to the financial aspects. We all know that sisters-in-charge /inner circles handled funds in ways not at all transparent or logical, often extorted
donations through pressure and luring, promises and threats : praise, special treatments and fame if you comply, hostility, rejection and shame if you don't. Doesn't take long to learn how to please the chiefs.
We tried to turn a blind eye, carry on with our spiritual efforts, and not "sulk with Baba", did not we? But I think our distaste and our conscience at some stage prevailed and we had to distance ourselves from inconsistencies and corruption. We are "ancestor souls, deities" so, no wonder we cannot compromise!
