Oh ... so it "looks good" for the video cameras streaming on the internet.
Says it all really.
The bottomline is, the original BK Sindhis were really not that classy and not truly spiritual at all, Lekhraj Kirpalani included. They were materialistic, and all about show ... and that remains within the organisation's genes (meme) until this day.
Really classy and really spiritual people are attracted to BKism due to their use of pre-existing terminology, and stick around for a while trying to help, trying to influence the movement ... they are milked for time, money, energy and ideas ... and then they leave.
They have to leave because the path of BKism and the path of true spirituality are divergent. At some point, if you have intelligence, sensitivity, or care ... you have to leave because you realise that they are never going to change.
Their core vision, their core ideal is replacing those early days when Lekhraj Kirpalani was throwing away his money on them, when they had no cares in the world, when they lived in relative luxury (in comparison to the rest of India) and when they had no one questioning or critiising (critiquing) what they were doing.
People might feel a little sad at leaving, say, friends within BKism ... but they should realise they are doing the right and enevitable thing *if* they want to find and follow a more spiritual life. Personally, for me, it was a *huge* relief to be free of them limiting and controlling my life (
... although it took many years for me to recover and get over "Destruction Consciousness").
Some ex-BKs, the PBKs, theorise that Lekhraj Kirpalani has incurred a large karmic account for misleading his followers and that he has had to stick around in "spook form" to try and repay and re-direct them ... or one could ask whether his "spook form" was just attached to his role and position and could not fully let go to fully move on after death. That is was still feeding off the movement's energy.
I cannot say. One cannot say anything for sure as regards spiritualism. Even if we use a psychological ideas, like collective consciousness, memes or egregores - that are not fully accepted scientifically - the theory would still work. They could just be projecting and pumping up a fake phenomenon. Many BK have felt for a long time that Gulzar was just faking or was deluded.
And now she's finally lost her marbles ...
I wonder if she and they still thinks "god" is coming inside her? Things have been very quiet about her.
I suppose they've made up an excuse to cover for that too ... like "she paid off her bad karma", or "Baba's enegy was so 'pure' that it has fried her brain" etc?
I would have thought that if it was truly god coming inside, that her body would have been "transformed" and healed ... oh, but their excuse for that is, "Baba does not heal, Baba cannot change Drama" ... blah blah blah.
They've always got an excuse for everything.
