Belief Modules - Raja Yoga Meditation
Raja Yoga Meditation
These are beliefs I have used to navigate life for over 25 years. These beliefs are conveyed via the Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University. These teachings do not support the notion of a personal savior or guru. They start with understanding of the eternal self, then with God and finally with understanding the drama of life. This knowledge provides a framework for understanding the cycle of time in which we live.
The following materials are not intended as a substitute for persons wishing to contact the university as a means of personally experiencing the power of Raja Yoga Meditation - which is the method of godly communion taught by the university.
The following links provide a brief overview to the understanding and practice of Raja Yoga Meditation as a means of establishing a connection or relationship with God.

Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University
The Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University (BKWSU) is an international non-governmental organisation with spiritual headquarters in Mt. Abu, Rajasthan, India with over 8,500 centres in 100 countries, territories and islands. As a learning community, it currently has more than 825,000 regular students seeking to strengthen their ability to live by their own higher nature and to improve their contribution to society through spiritual education and reflective practices.
The Brahma Kumaris seeks to help individuals re-discover and strengthen their inherent worth by encouraging and facilitating a process of spiritual awakening. This leads to an awareness of the importance of thoughts and feelings as the seeds of actions. The development of virtues and values-based attitudes creates a practical spirituality which enhances personal effectiveness in the workplace and in family life.
An understanding of the spiritual context of human existence is offered, helping to make sense of contemporary issues. Based on the principle that the roots of change lie within, the university encourages individuals to live by their highest values, vision and purpose. It holds that this commitment to self-transformation will create peace and a better world for all.

This is pretty cool Kernel. It's like seeing the Table of Contents of a person's OSR.
Can't wait till the Belief Genome is out. Unfortunately the first iteration won't have a subscription feature for 'collecting' Belief Modules.

Thanks Sid. As I recall, I originally wrote these materials many years ago as a synthesis of what I was learning at the time.
If you ask me, several Gurus in motherland (India/Pakistan) would also agree.
What is relevant here is that any or all participants on this site take a moment or 3 to also check out this information and determine if this (proposed) world view of movement of over 1,000,000 daily students makes any sense.
It starts with the idea that, "I am not physical, I am metaphysical." I am a soul.
This understanding leads to a virtual representation of the self. Love to hear from you bro.
