I Want To Know About Eckankar. Any Help? by MissRomantic(f): 8:45am On May 16, 2016
So, a friend and I were anguing some time ago about churches and at the mention of Eckankar, she started hating! It got me so curious that I had to make research. I've tried google but didn't get any 'straight to the point' answer, only that they probably don't believe in Jesus, just a 'God' they refer to as 'HU'. I want to know their doctrine. I want to know if they're heavenly minded. I also want to know why they choose to call God 'HU'. Thanks.

eckist don't call God HU. I doubt if you really googled anything about them. HU is just a mantra that is chanted during meditation. Its a sound that can help connect the God within, as a piece of HIM is deposited in every individual that was/is created. People fear what they don't understand and despise what they can't subdue. Do you really want to know the truth?!

There are a few threads here about it. It looks like a demonic fellowship to me.

Anything about "energies" of man, earth, stars, et cetera is referrence to various forms of demonic powers. They teach about how to harness such.

eckist don't deny Jesus as far as I know.
Re: I Want To Know About Eckankar. Any Help? by Ken4Christ: 9:38am On May 17, 2016
Please accept Jesus as your Lord and personal Saviour. That is what you need. He is the way, the truth and the life. He is the living water that you drink and taste no more. He will give you peace that is beyond human comprehension. He died for you so you might live forever. He is the only man that conquered death. Read the whole gospel of John to know more about Jesus.

The eckist will lead you away from the truth. They only acknowledge Jesus as a great teacher but do not believe in him as their Saviour.
Re: I Want To Know About Eckankar. Any Help? by Nobody: 12:40pm On May 17, 2016
As a former eckist, i will say eckankar is harmless fun.
Every one of their beliefs is unfalsifiable; you may never come out once you join. Cheers

You can visit the official ECKANKAR website below to learn more about the Religion.
www.Eckankar.org

It's a lovely and wonderful religion.
Re: I Want To Know About Eckankar. Any Help? by Amberon11: 6:38am On May 22, 2016
They do not believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten son of God. Like the Muslims, they believe HE is just a messenger. Anyone who doesn't believe that Jesus Christ is Lord has denied Christ already.

What's important is that YOU don't deny Jesus and his wonderful teaching of love in your thoughts, words and deeds. "And it shall be well with you"

Others want to take their commitment to God's love to a much higher level. That is why ECKANKAR is here. See some of there stories at www.Eckankarblog.org

Re: I Want To Know About Eckankar. Any Help? by Nobody: 2:28pm On May 22, 2016
I was an eckist in the 90s,first of eckist don't meditate,they contemplate and word hu is love song,mahanta is their known God,if u need peace it can be found in eck,but believe me it's an expensive hobby,as you will be made to send $$$ to the USA for lessons every year and if u stop sending ur $$ you re forgotten about.

And secondly,they believe in karma,that is where it get complicated,am too lazy to write,there's nothing Hamful about eck,but.......

That mystic scares the crap outta me. makes it seem like an occult thing.

Let's not mince words, there are seeming occultic practises in their worship, but as a visitor or lay member, you may not get exposed to such depths.I for one love adventures, so my curiosity often overcomes my fears.
It's the same curiosity that drove me to visit the Rosicrusians and AMORC. Experience gained cannot be quantified
