Yes, it is a shame she did not go into politics or get a real job. She could have done very well in life and helped with the practical upliftment of humanity. I remember Mitra saying some BKs believe that she has to come back to do service via money, as that was the only service she had not done before. But I think she is more like to come back to reap the finanical rewards of her efforts in building up the BK family business.
Does anyone know the name of her married elder Sister? I just quoted some more neat Radhe in the
History forum re
Arya Samaj,
Congress Party and Gandhi. She did seem a little bit full of herself really.

1958 ... do we know if there is any mention of Shiva within the originals, or are we still stuck on Prajapati God Brahma?
1958 only leaves us with a short bridge back to 1949 or 1950 where we still have God Brahma and the failed prediction of Destruction. She seems to have mellowed a little since her earlier works.
For those unitiated finding their way here, the original Brahma Kumaris used to think Lekhraj Kirpalani was their personal god (at least with a small G) and are to this day unsure and unconcerned who or when or if their new God Shiva was alledgely in or speaking through Lekhraj Kirpalani. I understand that Virendra Dev Dixit and the PBKs recognize some ambiguity or inconclusivity in this but tactfully, if not tactically, say that it does not matter as everything Lekhraj Kirpalani said as a medium was Shrimat ... and then try and work out what the hell he was talking about.
My $64,000 question is ... Do we have any record of Mama's realization, recollection or collusion in the revelation of God Shiva and the primary introduction of a personal God instead of Prajapati God Brahma and the Brahm element after 1950?
Mama Saraswati was notorious for keeping diaries and notebooks. Apparently she had trunks full of them. Given this tendency, and given her position as the President of the PBIVV and Number 2 soul of the world, is it too much to expect that she might have mentioned or documented such an event in some way?
Did she not feel an awful fool for having gone on about Lekhraj Kirpalani as the Gita Inventor and writing all those letters to royalty, politicians and VIPs!?!
Please do not allow this to stop you posting exampels of her edited or could we call it censored writings, as published by the BKWSU. They are all still very helpful to building up a more complete picture. They have also set the example for the likes of Janki Kripalani to come forward, fill the gap and produce her own Murlis ...
