Brahma Kumaris Info - the Truth about BK Meditation
Independent thought about the Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University

Dear Sarah. I am surprised. I have never heard of something like this happenning on this site before. Maybe a new strategy from the BKs? Even that would be a surprise. But it also highglights the reason we remain anonymous. As ex-bks we all know what it is you are going through. We don't doubt you o...

I am planning to write a small note to Sister Jayanti as to what I feel about the whole thing ... I am sure it will get ignored ... but, hey, it wouldn't cost me anything to do that ... Absolutely! As BK management do not solicit feedback they simply don't get any - with the net effect that they li...

They will be refering to professionals in the mental health care area - there are BKs who are psychologists and psychiatrists - Sarah Egger being one. That someone can study psychiatry and still be a cult member is quite extraordinary in my books. It demonstrates the power of belief and how natural ...

Thanks Enlightened for sharing your experience. What you have said resounds clearly with the rest of the ex-BK community. I don't want to appear to be devaluing your sentiments when I say that your experience is fairly normal for ex-BKs who have been fully absorbed in the BK experience. In fact, it ...

Has anyone seen the movie about Martin Luther and the reforms he created in the Catholic church? The Pope was so busy 'indulging' that he ignored Luther, or more importantly, he missed the point. Luther was only able to create reform because it was needed. Afterwards the Bishops all lamented the los...

I realised that being a BK was more important actually that being a soul

This is the main point I think.

the loose wet hair, the special saris, the ritual and twitching Kind of a spiritual wet T-shirt competition you think? A chance to shake their booty? Hot and wet in L.A.! 8) I think that BKs in the West are stuck with the practises of the Indian institution - there must be a hundred BKs in India fo...

No, Alladin. They are all corrupt - but you can trust me!

Dadi Prakashmani died demented and delirious. That in itself tells me that all this rubbish about rebirth is just that - rubbish. How is it possible for Dadi P to be fully enlightened and senile? It is not. It reminds me of all the years in which the BKs were certain that Mama had reincarnated in th...

Hi Sarah. Welcome back to reality. We all really hope that we can short track your transition from the BK experience to a valid, fulfilling experience of life as it really is. Not based on the fantasy of 5000 year repeating cycles and becoming deity princesses etc. Leaving Gyan is actually quite a d...

It would be invaluable to know more about this. Please feel free to name names, dates and details. This kind of information is invaluable for the efforts of this site and bkwatch (http://www.bkwsuwatch.com) in the effort of generating honesty and transparency in the BK establishment.

Lee is very much in Gyan and doing well. He is studying therapeutic theatre at university as a masters degree.

But why are we talking about him or Denise? Is this not just gossip?

Yes. It is called LSD. It helps me to hallucinate divine experiences. Before I used to engage in a subtle form of group hysteria with red lights, Bhog offerings, trance messengers, loud Hindi Bhakti songs, and self-induced hallucinations of angelic Brahma and of loveful bliss streaming from an imagi...

Dadi Gulzar asked Dadi: “What are the advanced party souls doing?” Baba said: "There is a committee of eight but I am not going to tell you their names. They are in different places but they meet together on a subtle level.” O please! For how long do they expect us to continue buying into this...

An ex BK raised the subject with me about repairing the personal family relationships that were 'renounced' as a BK. The issue is that when we become BKs we are taught that our husbands/wives/children are attachments, bondage, and the burden of our impure karma. Given that we are discontent with our...
