Is that right? I wish he could have more of an influentce. I see the Brian Bacon brand continues to expand, also promoting the Self Management Leadership thing (BrianBacon.com). That quote, "the creator of one of the world's most successful leadership development programs with over 100,000 alumni from 56 countries.", has to refer to BKWSU SML courses, surely? In his defence, I have to say that he also has to have practical commonsense and lives in the Western World. I can imagine this matter is also becoming a "battle of faith" for the hardcore diehards within the BKWSU, not just that they are looking after their own self-interests.
I mean, how can a ragtag bunch of dirty shudras, lower than the lowest of the low, tell one of the 8 how to run their business? They are the Golden Aged kings and queen in waiting and what are we in their eyes ... Silver Aged cremators. Bull to all the wonderful stuff they spout at interfaith meetings ... this is about caste now! How could we possibly be in anyway right and they in anyway wrong at all!?! We are below them. In their eyes.
Yes, I agree. If they are playing the game of PR spin on top of a now proven track record in "economy with the truth", its in the public interest to have influential individuals and tactics clearly identified. Where an individual supports, empowers and benefits from a corrupt regime, it is fairdos to out them.
What I cannot understand is how can an obviously intelligent man like Brian REALLY believe in a 5,000 Year Cycle of time with dinosaurs existing 2,500 years ago and be blind to the meaning of the historical revision? I think folks ought to take time to approach any VIP, any author, journalist or institution being sucked in to act as their "mic" by the 'Important Person' treatment and spill the beans.
For me, what is most distasteful is that the BK leadership equates PR with charity and service, and uses the donations it receives to fund it. Using it not only to promote the organization's public image but their own position at the head of it. I mean, are they really "bringing benefit" by them all flying around attending United Nations meetings .. or is it just PR?
