Greetings all. I've not posted for quite a while but have been participating from the un-subtle regions
![Smile :-)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
. We have seen nothing from Jayanti or any of her comic relief. Why I am not surprised? Well its easy to think that her only reason for contact with bkinfo - which she described as for ''our mutual benefit" (I am still amused at her naive use of old cliche - she'll be hitting us with ''win/win'' soon) - was damage control.
She wants to reassure us that our forums are unnecessary. That the she really and truly is a responsible and caring person, and that our claims are unfounded - we are just trapped in the proverbial Maya and are enslaved to Ravan.
Actually, Jayanti would not have contacted us if she were not being encouraged by Brian Bacon and Mike George. It is their commercial interests and professional lives that are at stake here. Along with a lot of other profiteers and hangers on.
But I have to say that I feel that everyone will gain more if we focus on the future. It is very easy to disturb the BKs. This was shown at the Sydney JAM event when the VIP guests were emailed prior to the program and advised of the true beliefs of the BKs. The emails were not defamatory, but simply asked the question ''do you know what the BKs truly believe?" Of course they did not and were not happy to discover that they had been deceived into association with a cult, only to be used as a publicity stooge.
Now there is a new threat - a website that will expose the ''yukti'' (or deception as the rest of us understand it) the BKs use to achieve their objectives. It will also expose the likes of Brian and Mike (sorry guys, but your web presence has already been downloaded for inclusion, along with Oxford Leadership Academy, Relax7 etc etc - ie: too late!) Even Nikki gets a mention!
So the stakes are raised. But all we are asking for is a comprehensive, coherent and REAL program of Duty of Care. All we want is for the BKs to wake up to themselves and, at least privately, admit that they have a responsibility for their members and ex-members that extends beyond ''have Yoga and it will all be okay".
It has been said before, and I will say it again - if you are going to influence people to adopt your belief system and live your lifestyle (i.e. to surrender) then you have to accept responsibility for the outcome. It is as simple as that. But no, the BKs have consistently ignored the outcome they have created - a lot of devastated people.
And if they don't believe that there are a lot of devastated people (members and ex-members) what do they think this website is about? And this website is just the tip of the iceberg. I know a lot of ex-members who have, by degrees, been traumatised by their association with the BKWSU, but who will not participate in a forum because they don't see it as part of their healing process - unfortunately. Because many of them are walking open wounds.
IS IT ASKING TOO MUCH FOR JAYANTI AND HER ASSOCIATES TO CARE AND AT LEAST TRY TO FULFILL THAT RESPONSIBILITY?
