The Yoga Shop, Singapore: another BKWSU money earning front

Post03 Oct 2011

The Yoga Shop, Singapore is another BKWSU money earning front. It is funny and typical, considering today's announcement that Adi Dev is false and should be removed from public, that the first book they have listed for sale is ... Adi Dev!

The shop sells books written by BKs promoting their cult many of which have their connection to religion increasingly obscured, in which BK adherents generally do hide their connection to the religion, such as the 'Quiet Revolution' targeting parents and children from the age of 6 upwards.
The Yoga Shop is a service to the community that provides a vast amount of spiritual literature for reading pleasure and melodious music for relaxation. The wide variety of items include:

    > meditation commentaries
    > meditation music
    > Yoga mats
    > mat bags
    > audio cds
    > pilates mats
    > inspirational books
    > relaxation music
    > magazines
    > lecture tapes
    > vegetarian cookery books
    > postcards
    > meditation chairs
    > relaxation seats
    > inspirational posters
    > Indian arts and crafts
    > self-development books
    > cards
This book is the story of Neil Hawkes and how he introduce a positive values programme to a school in Kidlington Oxfordshire England. The proogramme revolutionised the school creating very positive feedback from inspectors, teachers, parents etc. An inspiring read.

In my opinion, through this Neil Hawkes is acting as a leading supporter of the Brahma Kumaris in England who have used their Values Education programme to establish credibility for their teachings and infiltrate education systems worldwide.

Unthinkable in my days at the BKs, which wasn't that long ago.

It is just aimed at sucking in the huge $ Billion dollar New Age and Hatha Yoga market ...

When on earth did any Brahma Kumari used a Yoga or Pilates mats? What has that to do with Gyan?

Apart from making money, it is called "product placement". The Brahma Kumaris place their produce next to other products whose market they want to tap into.

In my day, business was forbidden because it might "pull your intellect" ... like having a ****, low paid job without any future did not pull your intellect?
