Re: Wikipedia
There is right now an on going campaign by the BKs to whitewash an article written about them on Wikipedia , they are trying to rewrite an article that many BKs and ex-BKs have contributed to in an attempt to define the BKs and their history ... It is incredible what these people are heading, such ...

Or put it another way, why doesn't Mr Bacon (tough name for a vegan) travel to all the BK centres around the world and give the course to all the BKs who, with their local awareness, can give the course and provide service to the souls and other BKs in their respective countries. He did create a Po...

Coming and leaving cul-de-sacs of depressive shutdown
I am battling with suicidal tendencies, I've had another bout just these last 3 days, today I stood on a 5 story roof (ironic and almost funny thinking about the Murli references). I suffer from intense depression, loneliness etc, this seems to build to a crescendo once a month or so. The funny thi...

Hi Sparkal! Still walking the path? Given that weakness is illusion, are we not all enlightened? Or is that cutting to the chase for some? Maybe they want to spin the glory hunting thing out a bit longer. Who gave us that weakness is an illusion? What does enlightened really mean? Not that I want an...

I don't recall this - maybe you can point it out when the ex-BK Chat archive appears. The archives are up, with smilies temporarily rendered as text, but otherwise with avatars as of old: http://ex.brahmakumaris.info/xbkchat/ for your pleasure and edification. Our sysop measures the success of his ...

I suppose the only real soul mate - the mate of the soul can only be ShivBaba and no one else, because everyone else will dupe you a little bit. In the vayakt Vanis it is said yes, one may take supoort for namesake, of a companion, of the familly, but if we make someone else / a human being/ our tr...

Aside, there are ex-BKs (meaning those who left the mainstream BK) but are there ex-PBKs ? Sorry for raising another group of forum members :oops: I too, would be interested to hear some revelations from ex-PBKs about Virendra Dev Dixit and the PBK version of the gyan-trance life of mouth-born prog...

Extracts of ex-BK Chat
I've finished extracting "joel's classic posts" from my writings on ex-BK Chat. To speak frankly, I am astounded at the depth and perception of this amazing ex-BK. 8) To provide context, i've included a few lines (and sometimes paragraphs) from a good number of you, Uddhava, Mr. Green, ex-...

Okay, Sparkal, I can begin to warm up to you. Howie, your list is good, too. Please don't twist the knife too hard; I cannot stop laughing. Bansy obliged me with a recent list of maraydas (thanks!) but I am still looking for the original English language ones with nice calligraphic flourishes that w...

You mentioned the poor behaviour of the sister in Charge. Maybe you're referring to the course leader but assuming you mean the SIC of GRC, many will know that is sister Manda. Is Manda a short woman with an impish face who used to do some translation duties during double-foreigner season in Madhub...
