The BKWSU is not about thinking and questioning. It is all about accepting and conforming internally (to the leadership within the BK movement), and using and manipulating externally (towards non-BKs, which they call Shudras).
The 'invitation to the center' is both the 'primary goal' and 'best admittal of failure' that you will receive from a BK. They have a superstitious faith in non-BKs being 'zapped' (my words) by their group's or god spirit's "vibrations" and thereby caught by them. They also believe that their more senior members will be able to 'zap' you harder because they are more dedicated mediums for the group's or god spirit.
What has or does the local Brahma Kumari cult leader say to you when you raise these same questions to them? What do they say about all the fake history, covers ups and abuse?
Have you ever raised such questions with them in public?
Normally .. and it seems increasingly .. the BKs do not like to confront such issues in public. The question and answer sessions with Seniors are carefully staged. We even had one meeting with local politicians where BKs checked people coming for cameras and video recorders.
Normally, you are taken away in private and the local cult leader with attempt to disable you with sweeties, listen lots and 'zap' you ... send their 'spiritual vision' at you. The best thing to do is not to talk too much but keep them talking so they don't drift off into mediation. Very often they will have a second of third BK with them whose job it is is to stay in meditation 'zapping' the room with vibrations. It is not so consciously pre-arranged .. but that is the way it works. I have watched people ... critics ... being 'worked' in this way.
Subtle things go on ... the BK guru being on a higher "guddhi" (literally a throne) ... a light being behind them ... definitely their guru's picture and a picture of their god spirit in the background. It is all classic iconic marketing, and milieu control, worthy of a Stalinist movement ... albeit a sort of touchie-feelie Stalinism that does not wish to kill of 20 million people ... just enslave them for their money and free labor in order to gain world domination!!!
