Re: Official Contact with Sister Jayanti (BKWSU)
Posted: 08 Aug 2008
In response to news that Global and BKWSU (UK) chief administrator Janki Kripalani was in the UK, and in response to the delays in receiving a detailed and substantial response to letters sent in March 2008, I sent the following to the BKWSU (UK) charity secretary Jayanti Kirpalani.
Alka,
I am writing in the understanding that you are Jayanti Kirpalani's secretary and wanted to address this concern to her.
Thank youJayanti,
I understand that UK and Global chief administrator of the BKWSU, Janki Kripalani, is current in the UK and I am looking for assurances that I am going to receive substantial and detailed responses to the correspondence that I have sent to her. I am sorry to say that I feel as if I am being left in the dark and obstructed yet again, and I am not receiving the requested acknowledgements from her appointed legal representative.
As you will remember, one of the issue that I raised was of the use of BKWSU charity facilities in the US and UK for a personally motivated legal action by Colonel Hansa Raval, as evidenced by your IT team representative, and I am seeking to resolve this issue with the organization of which Janki Kripalani leads.
I am of the impression that the matter is being studiously ignored in the hope that it goes away and that by the decision of having Michelmores LLP represent only the UK branch, international issues can be swept aside. Despite that Janki Kripalani also leads the UK branch.
Being an initiate, or even if you wish an ex-adherent of the Brahma Kumaris, I am perfectly aware that the real power structure within the Brahma Kumaris is entirely separate from the legal or "lokik" one, of Janki's and your own position and hence my direct request to you both again. To be frank, we know that Sanjay Tulsidas has very little real spiritual status within the organization, we have learnt from previous experiences and I am at a loss to understand what this latest episode is all about. Other than more deflection.
I have requested specific acknowledgement that Ray Bhat was actually acting on your and Janki Kripalani's behalf and the information I supplied to him was requested by, and provided to, Janki Kripalani as we were told. I am specifically referring to the letter sent to you as an attempt to resolve issues in a Brahmin manner but which was supplied instead to Colonel Hansa Raval. A draft which was then re-edited by her and presented as correspondence I had allegedly sent to her as a "blackmail" letter (by her attorney).
As I am sure you will agree that within Brahmin circles Shrimat and the Maraydas rise above manmat and even worldly laws. And it is those that we are judged by first. Principles which non-BKs will not fully appreciate. If required I have extensive evidence of the correspondence (examples given) that I can provide again for the organization.
I look forward to a moral and ethical resolution of these and other matters. I think it is now high time time for the Brahma Kumaris to make a visible example of internal reform, been seen to treat their own with justice and others lives with respect.
