Last week, Dadi Ratan Mohini, the last of the original generation of senior Sisters, died aged 100.
The first generation of followers of Dada Lekhraj,a retired merchant who started the small sindhi cult originally called the Om Mandli, who all thought that the world would end before they reached middle age, have watched as all their prophecies of the near, then medium term, future failed to materialise. ~
They have all taken part in the BKWSU ongoing revisionism of who God is, what God said, what he really meant when things did not turn out that way, and why etc etc.
They were shocked when first Om Radhe died then, horror of horrors, their "not-our-guru, our Baba, Prajapita Brahma", self-appointed as God then, later as Chariot of god, also died.
In the decades after 1969, when the next generation of followers brought in their expertise, the organisation was formalised as a "Trust" with Dadi Kumarka and Didi Manmohini meant to shepherd the flock to the end (of the Confluence Age (Sangam Yuga) NB as they simultaenously actively expanded their numbers and property holdings, to become an influential major NRM (new religious movement) in India, and starting branches in many countries around the globe. Most of these centres stayed quite small if they survived at all, while a few would expand to be, in relative terms, large and successful contributors to the ways and means of the BKWSU. As more of the absolute truths revealed by God himself failed to eventuate, what did eventuate was the inevitable.
One by one the "orphaned" Seniors died. Even the anointed sole Chariot of the combined form of BapDada, Dadi Gulzar, went to the "Avyakt" realm, leaving the living with no fresh "upgrades' to their divinely revealed, once absolutist but now definitely relativist, "spiritual versions".
They took their turns as heads of the BKWSU and its major regions, soemtimes one by one although usually it was two by two, as their peers were cured of life in the here and now, before they could witness the scenes the master storyteller Lekhraj promised they would.
Ratan Mohini was the last of the first.
Which means that most of the second generation (who became BKs after Om Mandli moved to Mt Abu in the early 1950s and began proselytising around India - mainly to garner donations - and before Lekhraj's death in 1969) are also old and frail.
So the BKWSU has turned to the youngest of that 2nd gen cohort, those who had set eyes on the living breathing godman "Brahma Baba", and they have made her the senior delegator, CEO, aka the chief Administrative Head of the whole shebang.
We're talking about Jayanti Kirpalani (yes, she is related, part of the "family", as were many of the Om Mandli). It is no real surprise as she was officially made "Additional Administrative Head" after Nirmala Kajaria died, as each of the aging Dadis appointed as Head administrators were effectively figureheads who were really only capable of offering minimal "advice".
In the days your humble correspondent was a BK, Jayanti was considered one of the most reliable of the authorised trance Sisters (transistors?!) who would "tune in" to a trance state t bring back messages allegedly from "Avyakt BapDada" i.e. the supposedly combined form of Brahma and Shiva.
The question that begs to be asked is whether her ascendancy will lead to new "trance" connections to the now 56-years-deceased Brahma?
Will there be fresh revelations of the once-immutable Gyan, soem new version of how this Kalpa will (finally) end and when the long-expected-but-well-overdue birth of Krishna and subsequent crowning of Narayan which marks the beginning of SatYuga will begin (see other posts in this forum for the many BK predictions that have been shown to become even more arithmetically impossible the longer time passes)?
Will there be the even more extreme possibility that we get a new medium for Avyakt BapDada to give the current crop of adherents reaso to travel to Mt Abu to meet Avyakt Babpdada in (another) person and new "Murlis" - making another lie out of what was once dogma?
Will the BKWSU outlive Jayanti as well?
