I am writing this post to express my experiences and what I have found out about the BKs over the years I was involved with the group. It's taken me a lot of courage to write this, and I have come to understand that there is still a lot of BK conditioning that is steeped in fear held within my subconscious that has consequently prevented me from sharing sooner.
I now feel that I want to share my thoughts because I feel it is my duty to do so as it may potentially help people who may be considering joining the BK organisation, or who are already a part of the group and wanting to escape, or maybe even remain but understand how they can better cope and remain empowered if they do come across any challenges or hypocrisy.
I want to start by saying that I did not really have any bad experiences personally in the organisation - I was treated with the utmost respect and met some lovely people, apart from a few instances when senior BK Sisters lost their temper with me, which I ignored because we can all have a **** day.
I also want to express that I am not here to debate the teachings, I was always uncomfortable with a lot of what I heard and just took what felt right to me which was less than 10% and, also, now believe that what the general public is told is edited and revised. The teachings or the image that is portrayed about the core teachings of the organisation are not consistent nor accurate - so be mindful about what you are being fed and don't blindly believe anything.
I do want to say that I overall perceived the organisation with 'rose tinted glasses' and that's what kept me attending the centre but after having observed the hypocrisy and hidden agendas of some members, particularly at the main London Centre, I need to speak out so that the truth can be exposed; and I am hoping that this post is read by the BKs there, especially by those "surrendered Sisters" who seem to somehow be able to justify their hypocritical ways.
So, the truth - and I am not referring to every single person (there are BKs who are lovely and seem to be progressing on their chosen path), but the few who think that their behaviours are justified, and they can abuse and mistreat people and still believe that "they will be the chosen ones in the Golden Age" - you are highly mistaken and I hope your conscience catches up with you!
So here goes:
There are senior surrendered BK Sisters who seem to think that they can sit on their thrones and give impressive talks about themes like 'living authentically' and 'following your truth' and giving advice about living a surrendered life as a "nun" but still be in relationships - primarily sexual relationships behind closed doors and leading a double life. How the hell does that work? Anyone who comes out and justifies this behaviour in any way is quite frankly a deluded idiot!
Advice for those "nuns" - make a decision! leave and get married/date or whatever or fulfil your vowes as a surrendered Sister - there is no bloody excuse for what you are doing and the truth always comes out! Stop being so selfish and misleading people! I thought you believed in karma? If you've had bad experiences in the organisation yourselves, or were yourselves misled/treated badly, then do something about it!! You cannot just carry on and keep on using and abusing vulnerable people to fulfil your unmet needs and desires, and lead double lives!
Advice for people visiting the centre/prospective BKs - don't risk funding these hypocrites by donating money. They're living off your hard-earned money and living like queens and doing what they want anyway, and truths like this will be brushed under the carpet so that the organisation can maintain its reputation. Also, don't put anyone on a pedestal in this organisation or think that they are more special or in any way more spiritually advanced than you - nobody is perfect and they're all working on their demons - maybe even bigger ones than you!
Think twice before swearing allegiance to any group or cult. Do your research first and make an informed choice from a place of analysis, rather than emotions or because you are in a bad place in life - if that's the case, turn to your friends or family - they will be the ones who will stand by you no matter what - keep them close.
Most people join groups because they had a 'spiritual experience' during, eg meditation (I believe such experiences come from within you because you had the inner capacity to create them, they're not from some external agency or a group) or were mesmerised by the group leader, or got a lot of attention or love - always ask yourself honestly what is motivating you, and then decide.
That's all for now ...
