Re: Official BKWSU internal reform efforts

If a professional is someone who practises what they do, then all teachers of Raja Yoga are professionals. It doesn't sound correct to call a Raja Yoga teacher a professional does it? The term professional usually refers to the making of money. So which is it BKs? Are Raja Yoga teachers professional...

Re: Official BKWSU internal reform efforts

How do we involve more BK professionals in these areas from different regions of the world? That's that thing again which rejects "non-professionals". The world is in a mess partly due to "professionals", so I am not sure what they mean. Surely it simply means someone who makes ...

Re: Feeling a bit lost

To say it again Sarah, this may not be the place for a sister like yourself if you are vulnerable. There are men around who will exploit your vulnerability.

Re: Feeling a bit lost

Hi Sarah, I posted a reply yesterday but it seems to have been removed by the moderator. Be careful who you accept help from on this forum as there is a sex predator around. They even try to give others advice on how to live their life. The game is getting a bit dirty so it is time for some action. ...

Re: A lie is OK ... !!!

For some odd and no doubt twisted reason, truth is related to knowledge. If we have knowledge as our truth, we are living a lie before we even get started. Surely knowledge is based upon TRUTH and is also easily tinkered with. So what is the source in question that knowledge draws from Our hearts? K...

Re: Building a local support group

It is normal to compare to other faiths and paths. It allows us to see what this actually is. The 'spiritual family' is a very powerful experience and should not be under estimated. It shows us how things can be, but not necessarily how things are always going to be. The aim and object is to take th...

Re: A lie is OK ... !!!

Umm, I have posted a doubler. Shows how immature I am, I should be treated as a child, maybe sent to bed without any supper. That's it, children exist to be judged and punished, regimented into shape. "You have not lived unless you have suffered", they say. Time for something new, I think.

Re: A lie is OK ... !!!

This is an important issue, this, being treated as spiritual children by those who play roles within the organisation. They are there because they are children themselves and need to learn. God wants the spiritual children to become spiritual adults, even if those in centres fear such a thing and tr...

Re: Feeling a bit lost

Hi Sarah. Welcome. We need to separate any notion that those running the centres are instruments of God. If they ever are, all good and well, but it would be wrong to see them as God's instruments in the total permanent sense. You have observed some weakness in their personality, so you have a more ...

Re: Why are there no Surrendered foreigners in Madhuban?

If it is not broken, don't try to fix it. First we must establish that it is not broken, before not trying trying to fix it. Though some here may be calling, "fix, its a fix". Some may have lessons to learn, eyes to open. The true test of being detached is to live in the world out there, n...

Re: Politics and Spirituality - Anthony Strano

A more refreshing BK passage perhaps. Politics, like or dislike, may give spirituality more meaning and substance. When we start applying it to real and practical situations in the world, in our lives, it can become more real. It is where we need it after all. We can however see clearly without wear...

Re: Is mind reading technology also affecting Gulzar Dadi?

Raj, can you post the contents of the said cassette on this thread? Do you have access to it? Arjun uses the term "he" with regards to taking over mount Abu and revealing Shiv Baba but is not clear about WHICH he. I would like to ask a question. Does or has Virendra Dev Dixit have, or ever...

Re: Is mind reading technology also affecting Gulzar Dadi?

I think this is a very interesting subject. I think it may be safe to assume that "they" are farther ahead with technology than "they" would ever let on about. And so we simply may not know. There is an areal which has started growing out of my head, any ideas anyone? I keep sayi...

Perhaps it is what we do when the odds are against us and the chips are down than when everything is flowing easy. Our ability to simply detach, let go and not get caught up in things.
Everyone will be happy in future, so all are number one. :P

Anything to get a bit of razamataz going. A bit of ceremony.

OK, so someone's car packed in. Maybe too much LSD or something.
