From a newsletter email received today: First Discipleship Granted! The Sat Yoga Institute is pleased to announce the naming of our first formal Disciple. In a sacred ceremony that was held this Sunday, Sadananda (Juan Rafael Arias) was granted the title of Disciple. He has earned this status as a r...

I used to believe in God, as a supreme being with a personality. I no longer believe that there is such a being, and that I was in communication with that being. What I had thought was communication with God, I now see as communication with my own higher self, and / or the higher selves of others. S...

I have just read this whole thread, and I am not surprised at the latest evidence of BKWSU skullduggery. Once again the scaly underbelly of the beast is revealed. I do think it is quite likely that London knows little or nothing of what Texas is up to - it was my impression, when an inmate a few yea...

Sr. Mohini's class: A Life of Virtue is a Life of Service
Wasn't Prakashmani ultimately responsible This is a good point ex-l: in a rigid authoritarian organisational structure such as the BKWSU has, the buck has to stop with the one at the top ... of course, they would say that the head one is Bap-Dada, ultimately their God Shiva ... so it's all God's fa...

I had a soft spot for Kumarka - I met her a couple of times, but it was just the toli and drishti thing, and a few words to the group. One to one she seemed like a tired out old lady with no sign of spirituality ... but when she was on the stage talking to the masses she transformed completely. I wa...

I have a slightly different take on the symbolism of the Emperor's New Clothes in a BK context - pondering on this tale helped me, in my final BK days, to break free of their mental tyranny. I saw Empress Janki, outfitted by the SS tailors (following their master craftsman, Lehkraj) in a natty twin ...

I really do sincerely believe that meeting personally is the way to move forward. I would also be happy to meet a group of individuals if that would be helpful. I do hope you will reconsider. I feel Jayanti is to be commended for showing willingness to participate in a dialog, even to the limited e...

In my experience meditation alone and mediation in a group both provide similar experiences and depth of Yoga, the main exception being where drishti is involved in the group experience. Without drishti, the discipline of being in a group may help you focus more strongly, or alternatively, members o...

Re: Ascension versus Destruction
many people are still stuck with this cyclical process of not being able to let go of the BK teachings and prefer to stick with what they know. This is clearly true. Would it be possible to research main stream events that happened on our earth at the BK predicted times of ‘destruction’ and align t...
