ex.Brahma wrote:I am not a psychologist to tell but, personally, I feel that he/she feels indebted by attributing a recovery from a serious illness to involvement with BK meditation, and possibly moral support from them, which is another myth from the BK!
A miracle for which he also refused to provide any details of or evidence ...
refuse, refuse, refuse. Perhaps you are right but was it Baba who cure him, or his own innate abilities.
I would say within the Brahma Kumaris, and their vocal supporters, there exists a meanness of spirit and an overarching interest in status.
On one hand, to get them to *do* something for others, even other BKs, is almost impossible as he demonstrated here (...
it is basically banned by the organization except for in extreme cases and the sake of PR); On the other hand, they are mainly concerned at their position and how they appear, e.g. at an individual level, they would not even risk their position within the BK system for the sake of other BKs by questioning or challenging the leadership.
Not rocking the boat and accepting the status quo while collectively rising up society is the name of the game.It appears many BK-types are uneasy at criticisms of their leaders or the organisation because it damages or lowers the status of the organization and, therefore, theirs by association too.
The Brahma Kumaris *are* a whacky End of the World cult. We tell the world so and question and discuss their many failures at all levels.At least this time he cannot complain we "
banned him for being a BK supporter" ... as he's not banned. He will just have to say his account was deactivated because he refused to help other BKs get copies of the Murlis, or because he refused to address corruption and abuse within the cult.
I imagine if he is recommending the Brahma Kumaris to others, especially crediting them for some miracle cure, then our existence will be difficult for them. As an expert, you would have thought he had the ability to scientifically explain the miracle cure and write it up as a paper for the world to read.
Or perhaps his story was not true and that is why he did not want to put his name to it or for others to check references.
