I just threw my BK ring away this summer, threw it in the sea when on a ferry journey. This was symbolic for me breaking my marriage to the BKs. The ring is given to every BK on their first visit to Madhuban as 'one of the family'. It is given to symbolise becoming married to God, and I was very happy with that and wore it on my wedding finger. But I realised this summer that it had actually come to symbolise marriage not to God but to the BK organisation, and when i realised this it had to go. So I am still on the 'rebound' adjusting myself to life as a single person. I have now had three wives, the third being the BKs! And now I am single and free again, and I have never felt so good!

Mr. Green,

You wouldn't have made a ring to replace the other one, perhaps even perfecting the design?

So, we will mark you down as fully available! Wink

Hi,

I forgot my ring in my old house. I moved and I visited my old house one year later. I saw it there, fotgotten in a bathroom. Wink
When I left BK, I decided stopped to use it, but I keep the ring in a box for years. I kept some rackys too. Itīs funny because I burned everything (letters, astral charts, kabala, souvenirs) when I came to Raja Yoga (I didnīt burn my books because I sold them Embarassed ).

Ten years later Iīm here, talking about this. Itīs hard to be free again, no?

Si lo es poro no es imposible. Smile

It is good that you are in therapy other wise one day your dear family will be. I have found all kinds of interesting things here. Yo no soy XBK! I am NBK (coined by brother Joel) family of an XBK.

So, tell me why do you keep the ring? Confused Also, do you wear a wedding band from your marriage?

Regards,

Hi Tete,

You speaks spanish! Itīs too similar to portuguese. Itīs easy to understand. Thanks!! Very Happy

I donīt know why I kept my BKīs ring. It was very hard to lived away from Brahma Kumaris. When I decided to left, I removed the ring. But for years I had the feeling that I need to return. Ten years later, Iīm sure that I never will return to BKs. I think that I can throw away the ring now. But I need to find it Laughing

I had a marriage ring, but I lost it two months ago Embarassed Laughing Iīll buy a new one. My son used to play with my ring. I think that I will find it into a toy. Very Happy

When I got married, 9 years ago, we decided to get married in a church. The cerimony was very simple and spiritual. I feel that God blessed me.
