No meeting ever happened and correspondence ended. Jayanti swanned off.
We started discuss an agenda here, and they refused it saying all they wanted was a friendly chit-chat.
What made it all funnier was during the time they were discussing what to do about us ... they accidentally added *our* email address to their group, so we saw their private internal discussion about us.
Mostly it was a senior Western BK Neville Hodgkinson guiding Sister Jayanti what to say. Neville Hodgkinson and his wife were journalists for right wing newspapers. He, for a respectable broadsheet (The Telegraph) and she, for right wing tabloids like The Sun (sexually pornographic) and The Daily Mail (morally pornographic). Neville at least was very middle class and has add British "polish" to the Brahma Kumari facade. His wife has written dumbed down "books for women" promoting the BKs.
At the time we were just exposing the child sex abuse cover up Jayanti, Janki and others were involved in and the financial abuse of surrendered BKs ... they were *far* too serious issues to address in a "friendly" manner. I had no interest in being "friends" with anyone.
I remembered one of their old Sindi yuktis that Jayanti herself had said to me, "to become like sugar in the milk" ... as in to use sweetness to invisibly merge and influence a situation.
Underneath that I saw it as a battle of wills ... was it to be "our way" or the "BKs' way". And, as you have rightly identified elsewhere, the BKs habitually like to be in control and avoid situations, even simple question and answer sessions, where they are not, e.g. they avoid philosophical arguments with pundits and becoming involved in social political issue.
Mostly, I believe, because they know how vulnerable they are if moved out of their comfort zone and their comfort zone is sucking up to the powerful Establishment or moneyed Elite like golddiggers.
Experience led me to believe that any exchange with them would pretty much be a waste of time and energy as they don't want to or cannot really change. They believe they are the chosen people and directly led and inspire God, and the rest of us are "the lowest of the low".
Which is what the Murlis used to call ex-BKs ... "the lowest of the low".
If being an ex-BK means being a dirty Shudra and the lowest of the low, then I was *much* rather be it than stupid, dishonest, manipualtive stinking wannabe pretend "Brahmins" like them.
Some Westerners, like Neville Hodgkinson it appears, appear to enjoy playing our their orientalist fantasies and being upper class neo-Hindu Brahmin Lites™ as I call them.
