short description of interest in joining forum:
I considered my self a Brahma Kumari from 1984 to 1989 upon that time of youth gave myself over to cultus and sought out god through encounters with the medium in human form.

After four years I was enlisted to do service at the Kumbha mela in Alubhad whereupon I had a profound relization that this was in academic jargon a New Religious Movement (NRM) and had cherry picked various narratives to in a sense reconstructed a meta narrative based on the original impulse of a retired business mans vision of god that was struggling to gain traction in India found a surprising appealed to disgruntled Western youth in post 1960's culture of experimentalism in cultural relativism.
