Happy mothers' day:  Brahmakumaris (BK)

For those of you who don't know about Brahmakumaris (BK), they are a spiritual organization completely run by women! You don't see guys talking about spirituality in BK:)   Check out  https://us.brahmakumaris.org/ .  
They are headquartered in Mount Abu, Rajastan, India.  

Had the good fortune to meet up with a BK teacher when I first started meditation.. I did it only for about 3-4 months, then dropped off.
They suggested that I buy a meditation aid at that time..which was a bulb with a orangy covering and when lit, will give out a light like the picture below.. The instruction was to look at the light and then focus on the brow-chakra ..Found it very interesting when I started, and practiced it very sincerely for some time.. Was even thinking of going to Mt. Abu once, but never happened :)
( I was looking up online for additional info on this now, but couldn't find much)..Not sure whether they changed it these days.

Based on our understanding of third-eye and activating the mid-brain area by focusing on Ajna chakra makes complete sense.  Orangy light is also associated with a lot of healing powers. Great mediation technique.
Picture
​BK consider the supreme godhead as Shiva Baba, as the god of all religions...., is considered as a spiritual guide of BK, whose objective is to awaken the humanity and remove evils. Shiva Baba is a supreme soul and a point of light

Beliefs of Brahma Kumaris are:
  • The soul is everlasting and resides within the physical body. However, it is not a part of body.     (similar to what we have been discussing)
  • In reincarnation, the soul leaves one human body and enters another. It does not take non-human bodies.  
    (This is slightly different from traditional Hinduism in which the soul can reincarnate into animal bodies)


Happy Mother's day!
