Robert, why are you bothering to disrupt Roman's discussion forum. He poses a straight forward call for people to recount if their prayers have ever been answered - and here's your less than brilliant response (see original reference).
'Does your Guru teach that India is the only safe haven
left after the "A pot O Lipstick" events,
destroy every other continent (except India)?'
Robert - first, I don't have a guru. There is only one true guru and that is the Supreme Soul Father God Himself. Anything wrong with that? You go on . . .
'...that the mighty BK "Whopper" Mahatma Guru swears is about
to extinguish roughly 7,000,000,000,000 human beings?'
The theology you refer to contends that destruction will result in the physical survival of all but 900,000 human-beings. These souls go on to populate what you refer to as paradise or Eden. As such, when the one you call Adam and others refer to as Vishnu, Krishna, Naryan, Adi Dev, The First Man incarnates, this great soul is not alone.
As for destruction, it will be pervasive. Are you suggesting someone is teaching that the 1B+ people in India will be spared? Who is telling you this. Where are you getting your misinformation from Robert. Be careful, it can poison you. Be careful from which cup you drink.
You go on . . . .
'(to many zeroes Kernal? I added a few since the godman dropped a few on the floor of the Burger King franchise he was last spotted in..as he rushed out to publish his latest list of "Tribulations" for your lesson material.)'
Robert, how do you come to reference a "godman". I understand that this is a term used to describe Jesus but it is not used by followers of this divine knowledge to describe Dada Lehkraj - the one who founded the Brahma Kumaris Spiritual University and turned over the reigns of administration to young virgins. Imagine, feminism - India style. This radical approach upset many in a male dominated world both in India and abroad.
My contention is that you are more interested in taking pot shots at what you understand to be untrue than sharing what it is you understand to be true. You find this preferable to entering into serious discussion. Right? Yet you are doing the best you can with what you got.
So, this forum will help us determine if Robert deFord (Duphore) is a serious contender in this Open Source debate. So tell us Robert, what does your theology tell us about the end-time? For example, the BKs content the end-time results in the return of souls to their home (the soul world) - the place where God dwells eternally. This theology goes one to describe how souls will all return to the physical world of matter (after the earth is renewed) each according to their number. The great souls are the 1st to descend and as you know, when a soul enters the drama of life it stays until all are called back home once again.
How does your cosmology work or do you prefer to hang in the shadows. It's funny to think that the one who claims to have a Christan Based Solar Theology spends so much time hiding in the shadows rather than share the light of knowledge with his peers.
Looking forward to your reasoned response.

I've heard of Jews for Jesus - never Sufis for Christ? So you don't need to be Muslim to practice Sufism.
You're making it up as you go along. You're making it up to suite your-self. You seem to be a loner who represents only himself. Are you, for example, part of Roberts Solar Yoga Brotherhood?
You don't mind if I put in a plug for the Khem The Revelator Channel you set up on Youtube - MORE. I searched but found none of your commentaries addressed how the Self acquires a Soul. Khem what is the self if not the soul - infinitesimal point of self-luminescent energy that is unique (non-cloning principle) and eternal? What paradigm do you function within?
Permalink Reply by Kernel John on January 10, 2012 at 7:17am Robert, I simply ask under what authority do you proclaim that I or anyone else has no "soul". Is this a divine proclamation and if so where to you get the authority to make it (scripture?) or are you self anointed. How can I or anyone take you seriously when you appear to speak without authority yet judge that another is devoid of soul.
Permalink Reply by Kernel John on January 10, 2012 at 7:53am Does Robert proclaim that he HAS a soul or that he IS a soul?
Robert believes that he HAS as soul however Robert appears unable to explain who or what HE is.
I ask him to explain who or what HE is, if not a metaphysical soul, and he insists he already did. But he cannot remember where or when he did this.
Robert can hold whatever belief he wants but when he imposes it on others, as he does - from time-to-time, it represents his deeper sanskaras - the ones that define who and what he is at this moment in time. Robert uses his theology like a caveman uses his club. He seems to have problems accepting the fact that there are other successful, productive, well balanced people who don't share his understandings or beliefs. Rather than emerge the sanskara of tolerance, frustration and anger emerge in his tone and tendency to call people names.
Give it up Robert. Move along. If not now - never. Follow the path of your Prince of Peace and find the strength to tolerate others like me. Why be combative. If your energies are not received by others here, they are destined to return to the self. Give no sorrow and take no sorrow. Our thoughts, words and actions do count. Be careful what you imbibe and what you spew.
If you are not a soul Robert, then what are you - a body? Let's discuss. And knock off the Christian bully stuff. It does not become you or this site.
This is the true you - is it not?
This is the true you.
The original you.
The victorious you.
The powerful you.
The knowledge-full you
The Peaceful you.
The giver of love.
Must we argue this also?

Permalink Reply by Kernel John on January 10, 2012 at 8:55pm So you suggest that the system of yoga taught through the Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University is borrowed from the bible and that somehow Christianity does not borrow from Judaism. Sorry Robert, your logic betrays you.
Permalink Reply by Kernel John on January 10, 2012 at 9:02pm You are being very playful.
Why do you believe that Christianity, and no other religion, is the only way to God.
Robert, I am sure your personal beliefs and understandings will serve you at least as well as mine serve me. Would you not agree? Of course.
Permalink Reply by Kernel John on January 10, 2012 at 9:47pm As you know, I am of the clear and firm understanding that I am an eternal soul that currently has a body. As such, "I" do not experience "my" soul. The soul is what I am. Put otherwise, "I am that I am."
Robert, I am a metaphysical soul. I, the soul, comes into matter to experience life. This is either not in the understanding that "I am a soul - I have a body", or in the consciousness that "I am a body and I have a soul". The story goes that when man forgets his true spiritual nature and proceeds in the understanding that he is flesh - that's where he starts to get into real trouble.
The human soul not only consciously experiences life, the human soul is, to one degree or another, consciously aware of the itself. This abstraction or ability to not only participate or respond to life but to objectively detach and observe ones own life experience enables one the ability to choose, plan, predict and self direct - IMHO.
Sorry Robert, I do not experience the soul per say. I am the soul and this soul (me) is what experiences life and also directs my response to it.
"I", the soul, experience life though my sense organs. I, the soul, use this information to guide or drive my body through the risks and opportunities of life. If I am engaged in bad actions (karmas) I will always eventually pay the price. If I follow God's divine instructions, I get to remain in paradise - that is until the merits gathered at the end of the last cycle (Good Karma) run out. More on that later - unless you have some questions now.
I am interested to hear your alternative cosmology. Robert, how do "you" experience "your" soul. And, if you are not your soul, could your describe who or what "you" are? Also can you try to tone down the derogatory statements. They don't suite a well meaning Christian American like you.

Permalink Reply by Kernel John on January 11, 2012 at 9:34am Robert, you are obviously trying to prove something to someone. Perhaps yourself.
Thanks for your input. I am more than familiar with the life and teachings of the founder of your religion and have determined that the Christian Religion, or religion in general, is not for me. I prefer to direct my attention to something I refer to as the Supreme Soul - The Father of Souls - God - Shiva. . .
Your point of view has been appreciated however it is no longer necessary or appreciated by me.
I understand what you are saying. It is no longer necessary for you to keep saying it to me. You have nothing to prove to someone like me - correct?
You are entitled to believe what you believe and I fully accept this. I accept that you have your beliefs and that they are different from mine. I ask that you accept that mine are different than yours and leave it at that. Otherwise, what's your point? What are you endeavouring to prove or do? I am not particularly interested in continually clarifying or rationalizing my spiritual frame of reference to you. I'm not asking that you accept anything. We have had an interesting discourse that has now come to an end.
You are entitled to think what you want about me and my beliefs. You can even broadcast your perceptions as publicly as you do but the fact remains that this exposes far more about you than it does about me. As far as I'm concerned you have exposed yourself too much. Thanks for your attention and kind efforts.
Just mention Open Source Religion, Proprietary Religion, Belief Genome, Belief Modules, or Prerequisite Beliefs in a tweet to appear in this twitter feed.
