According to The Cycle they teach about, the mafia and its system should have learnt them from the BKs at the confluence every Kalpa. But more simply, it seems to me that the BKs emulate the mafia. They manage proficiently in most aspects,
omerta is their best feature.
Tight control over the circulation of info and material. Very stifling.I wonder , if caught, how many high ranks well informed members would speak under torture. Maybe all!
I liked Arjunbhais' post, it's all very true, unfortunately, we know what's going on!!
Arjun wrote:no BK would come to their centers to the daily class and read the Murlis at home. I said, just to force BKs to come to the centers, you cannot deny the access to Murlis to those BKs, who are thirsty for Murlis but are living in remote areas. He had no rational answer for this except giving an example that his

Seems that the negative system of not caring for, nor sustaining properly even students which are
eager to get knowledge is widespread and adopted everywhere. It all has to do with the sisters-in-charge control trip. "We are holding the reins, you are inferior, have no rights and should beg all the time!".
What strikes me is the
lack of humility, as Arj Bhai pointed, due to which sisters-in-charge cannot admit that students are not motivated to go to the centers. Therefore sisters-in-charge try to force them to do so in every possible way.
Total blackmailing. Did not work on me, I tell you! The Sister that tried that with me, gained my despise and lost my cooperation.
So, apart from the analogies with the mafia, what we all really would like, I think, is an attitude and atmosphere of Yoga and peace, first of all at centers, that we all would appreciate. That's rare to find. SS put maniacs, restlessly running around for service peaceles souls in charege. No one is allowed to complain. If we do, since only those in charge count and are listened to and take decisions. It's a schizofrenic vicious circle.
In the end it's very convenient blaming students for laziness and carelessness, rather than accepting the responsability to make centers more appealing (not in the sense of luxuries, please, I know this is the direction in which energy usually goes!!) through attractive activities, democratic sharing, even of Murli points and comments on them, good vibrations and respectful attitudes. After all, this is what Baba is asking all BKs to do, teachers in primis.
