Investment › Time To Start Busting These Money Making Websites by benodic(op): 3:01am On Oct 21, 2020
There are many websites now in the internet claiming to give you money for carrying out certain activities.
I think it is time to start busting them and blacklisting them as well especially the new ones that don't have any reviews on the internet yet that one can work with.
I believe if we work together we can get this done in a shorter time. This will also enable us to know the ones that are legit.
Our findings will be posted here in order to guide others
I will be releasing the names of the websites one by one.
Those who have valid information about them can also post their experiences

On the outside, divine and emotional love may look the same, but divine love is joyful, thankful. It gives itself fully.

Let love be what it will. Don’t let the mind tell you one is human and the other divine.

@benodic Pls give answer the followings: 1) Outline of ECK membership program
A true spiritual teaching makes a link between God and you. And it provides a guide to help make your journey as easy and direct as possible.

Eckankar has an inner and outer living guide. He has made the journey into the heart of God but has returned to help us on our way to Self-Realization and, ultimately, God-Realization. This guide is the Mahanta, the Living ECK Master.

The next step on your spiritual journey can be linking up with him through membership in Eckankar. You will then experience the awesome miracle of advanced spiritual growth—a life of joy, meaning, and creativity

The ECK teachings place you on an advanced track back home to God. Experiencing the Light and Sound of God gives you the momentum to start working off all the karma that has held you back from spiritual freedom and true happiness.

Membership Facts include:

Membership in Eckankar is renewable once a year.
Application can easily be done online via the ECKANKAR website. www.eckankar.org

There is no charge for membership, but there is an annual suggested donation. For first-year members, the suggested donation begins at US$60 for an individual or US$120 for a family (US$50 for an individual or US$75 for a family in developing countries).

You'll receive quarterly publications such as the Mystic World, which includes feature articles and Wisdom Notes from the Living ECK Master. Each issue has inspiring stories from ECKists about their experiences on the way home to God.

When you become a member of Eckankar, you receive a discourse series for your personal study. You study one lesson a month, sharing them with your family if you like.

There are currently seventeen years of ECK discourses for you to explore

Members of Eckankar (ECKists) work toward higher states of awareness through the Eckankar initiations. Each initiation is a true awakening. It opens you to a whole new world of God's Light and Sound. It also imparts to you a new sense of spiritual stability and strength.

You can also participate in ECK Activities—Introductory presentations, ECK Light and Sound Services, book discussion classes, seminars, spiritual fellowship

2) Soul travel?
Soul Travel is simply the process of Soul going back home to God. This then involves expanding soul's consciousness through the various planes of God until one gets to the heart of God.

You can’t make yourself closer to God by hating someone else, whether you believe it’s righteous anger or not. The relationship between Soul—which is you—and God is one of love. And where there’s pure love, there is no room for anger of any kind.

Hi Benodic,
What are the Creeds of ECK
Basic Beliefs of Eckankar
Harold Klemp, the spiritual leader of Eckankar, describes the basic beliefs of Eckankar as follows:

The teachings of ECK define the nature of Soul more carefully than do other current religions. Each person is Soul, a particle of God sent into the lower worlds (including earth) to gain spiritual experience. Purified by the spiritual exercises, he comes into contact with the Holy Spirit. His goal is spiritual freedom in this lifetime, after which he becomes a Co-worker with God, both here and in the next world.

Karma and reincarnation are primary beliefs.

Key to the ECK teachings is the Mahanta, the Living ECK Master. He has the special ability to act as both Inner and Outer Master for ECK students. He is the prophet of Eckankar, given respect but not worship. He teaches the sacred name of God, HU, which lifts one spiritually into the Light and Sound of God, the ECK.

The ECK (the Holy Spirit) purifies one of karma (sin), making it possible for him to accept the full love of God in this lifetime. Then he gains wisdom, charity, and freedom.

Personal experience with the Light and Sound of God is the cornerstone of Eckankar. Of all the religions on earth today, Eckankar offers the most direct teachings on the Light and Sound of God. These twin pillars are missing in whole or in part from the rest. People who truly find these two aspects of God undergo a complete spiritual change. Life becomes fresh and new again, as it was in early childhood.

—Harold Klemp
"What Is ECKANKAR?"


Eckankar teaches . . .
Soul is eternal.
Soul exists because God loves It.
Soul is on a journey of Self- and God-Realization.
Spiritual unfoldment can be accelerated through conscious contact with the ECK, Divine Spirit.
This contact can be made via the Spiritual Exercises of ECK and the guidance of the Living ECK Master.
You can actively explore the spiritual worlds through Soul Travel, dreams, and other spiritual techniques.
Spiritual experience and liberation in this lifetime are available to all.
Taking another step
For those who are ready for a new spiritual step, Eckankar offers a membership program designed to allow students to unfold spiritually at their own pace.

No matter how much insight we gain about God, there will always be something that lies beyond the horizon of our understanding. That is simply the nature of truth.

Hi there,


Have you ever had an experience of God’s guidance? It can come as a nudge, a prophetic dream, a gut feeling, or quiet voice within you.


Harold Klemp says, “If you’re Christian or Jewish or of any other faith, look to the God of your faith. Look to your saviour, look to your way of spirituality, and ask, 'Show me truth, God.' If you’re sincere, God’s Voice, the Holy Spirit, will begin opening you to truth.” (ECK Wisdom on Inner Guidance, p. 9).


Learn how you can better connect with the inner wisdom of Soul through regular spiritual practice. Try a technique that can help you get in touch with a wisdom that transcends the power of the mind.

You are invited to an ECK Light and Sound Service on Zoom.

If we realize that our field of dreams is not the same as someone else’s field of dreams, we’ll get along better with that person. This is a hard thing to learn sometimes.

@ recentelder:

Hi, I hv been following this thread for quite sometime now. My questions are 1 how many heavens exist and who coordinates each stratum or heaven
.
In the lower universe which are worlds of duality, where matter, time and space operates there are 4 planes. Starting from the physical plane where earth exist, the astral plane, causal plane and mental plane.
The astral plane is usually referred as the first heaven and is where people usually go when they die on earth. People also visit there temporarily during the process of dreaming.

The third heaven which Apostle Paul was referring to in the holy Bible is actually the mental plane.

Then we have the pure Spiritual heaven where there are no duality. No male or female. Just pure soul and the pure light and sound of God in increasing vibration as you move up the planes. For now the ECK Masters have given account of 6 pure Spiritual planes starting from Soul plane to Anami Lok.
Each plane is governed by a god appointed by the Supreme God.

2 the universe that made of earth and other planets ,is it like that in other heavens or are heavens in strata form?
As above so below. Whatever you see here is a reflection of what is above. The differences between the heavens is only in level of vibration and the amount of matter. The higher the plane, the lesser the amount of matter, the more refined and the higher the level of vibration.

When you don’t put a definite shape to what you imagine, Divine Spirit can have unlimited freedom to fill that mold. But if you put a limit to it, you often strike out because you’ve allowed for only one possible outcome.
