INITIATIONS
i noticed frm the very 1st day that eckists wear ID card in their gathering. I could see the name of the eckist & his stage of initiation written as "initiation 1" or "initiation 2" in his ID card. There are the "high initiate"(usually those that reach initiation 6). The visiting speakers were high initiates.How is initiation done? That's one thing i dnt knw abt eckankar 'cos i wasn't initiated.But i once had an initiation (or something like that) in a drm. I was standing near a river & someone stood near me & said i should call a spirit named(...),when i called the spirit she came out frm the river,a woman dressed in red with a little knife. I sticked out my tongue & she touched the tip of my tongue with the knife. Just then a strange power awoke in me,much like electric current. But that was just a dream. I really dnt knw what initiation is like. However, i got into trouble once because of Hu...STORY CONT

This is what you get when you reject your Bible and follow GIBBERISH.

Do you worship "God that beggar sprawling in the street?"

Matthew 6:9 "Our Father who art in" where?

Matthew 5;5 "Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the" what?

Your dead mom wise pass Jesus Christ?

You are no different from Saul cavorting with spiritism.

Drop your address and location. If you get liver.

JWs are fallible & have risen & moved on.
Oga, pls stand rooted on that very spot and CONTINUE WAILING.

Janosky:
JWs NEVER claimed perfection (screenshot proof) even before you were born.
JWs are fallible, Romans 3:23.

Fact.

i'm in a very peacful mood 2day,so i'll ignore this one

...A guest speaker often visits d service evry Sunday. By 9.am a person addresses the crowd as sons & daughters of god or beautiful souls & introduces himself as the moderator. 3 members are called to share their experiences with the audience.The guest speaker speaks on a topic frm eckankar books. The singers give their songs & b4 u knw,the whole thing is over. No offering box is present but a bag is passed to each person to make donation if he likes. Then some members will gather in groups & discus whatever i knw nothing about. There're some words like SATSANG CLASS, but i dnt knw what it means.Some eckist could be so nice & friendly while some are mean & some are the "i no send u" type.

od501:
Now you are getting the point.

i dey tell u

SOME SIMILARITIES WITH BCS
(1)love as the central teaching,
(2)reincarnation & karma,
(3)respect for all lives including animals,
(4)abstinence from alcohol & smoking is recomended but not forced,
DIFFERENCES
(1)BCS use bible while eckist use shariyat-ki-sugmad as Scripture.
(2)BCS wear white garment while Eckists have no specific uniform.
(3)BCS recomend monogamy but Eckists doesn't interfere in ur choice of marriage.
ALTOGETHER, eckankar gives more freedom to their members than BCS.

ECK LIGHT AND SOUND SERVICE
I went into the building d 1st time & few people were inside arranging chairs. An elderly man welcome me (I later learned he's the Local Director-LD). At 8.am the Hu song commenced & continued 4 the next 30mins.There was a break b4 the main service commenced at 9.am. When it was over, it was annouced that 1st timers & anyone who have a question 2 ask should wait in a small room. Inside the room some men had a discusion with us,asked us what made us come & explained 2 us the procedures of becoming a registered member of Eckankar. We were told 2 come 4 a discusion class on Friday & keep coming 2 Sunday service if we're ok with it. Nothing weird happened! I was comfortable with them 'cos they didn't force me 2 do anything.They said u can chant the Hu only if u want to,or leave if u don't. I had no issues with them initially.

litaninja:
Lmao. This is a joke right?

why do u think so?

I didn't knw there a difference btw temple & centre

Ihatebuhariwith:
ABI make God kuku kill her..

if she doesn't want 2 repent

INSIDE OF AN ECK CENTRE
i've been inside only one eck centre & here's hw it looks like:
a large picture of the Mahanta (a whiteman) in suit & tie stands in the front,
a platform with a pulpit,chairs & table;
special seats 4 singers & another seats 4 some group of men/women i dont knw their title;
A general seat for the congregation;
in the back a large chart is pasted in which the worlds of eck is described: the name of each plane of existence,its ruler,sound & chant;
then a notice board is pasted in the back wall. There's a loudspeaker & microphone but didnt see band set except a keyboard. There's room for creativity so a man came with his flute & there was no problem.

Maynman:
Religion ooo

I can't read screenshots,my device doesn't suport it,u can type it out pls

MY 1ST STROLL TO AN ECK CENTRE
It was Friday morning & i decided to take a walk 2 the eck temple in IK. I'd seen d temple b4 but have 4gotten exactly where it's located so i had 2 ask some guys in the roadside after treking 4 a long distance.I was a bit nervous because i didnt want 2 be suspected as a satanist.The guys directed me & i finally got to the temple but it was empty.There's a phn line 2 call at the sign post but i had no phone. I had 2 enter d compound beside the temple & ask for a pen & paper 2 write d number.After dat i left. On my way back i rethink my decision again & torn the paper 2 pieces & walked into a church where deliverance section was ongoing. I was expecting the prophet 2 expose my visit 2 the temple of eck but d Lord didn't reveal 2 him,instead,he called me out & repeated the same cock & bull story i've heard over & over in d mouth of prophets. But I went back 2 d temple of eck very early on Sunday morning & the door was open...COMING LATER

SOMETHING TO REMEMBER
Anyone reading dis story should knw that i'm not presently a member of Eckankar.U should also know that i'm neither here to promote nor defame the religion. Whatever path/religion a person decides 2 follow is DEFINITELY his/her business. I only have problem when u try 2 force ur beliefs on or condemns someone who doesn't want 2 believe ur fantacies. So if u feel like hauling ur attack for Eckankar on me here,I shall embarass u a little. Also, an eckist reading dis should undstnd dat i'm merely relating an experience of mine without bias,if it upsets u,just sing ur Hu & keep calm. MAY THE BLESSINGS BE!

oya drink your coke. But wait o. It 11pm already. Coke has sugar polysaccharide. It's contains about 8 cube sugar which will take over 8 hours to fully digest; it's not good to take coke at night since your body will be inactive for a long time thereby not producing enough heat to burn the sugar and release the required ATP.

is this a lecture or a warning?

jeromestarks:
You should be older than this scrappy saying na.
Hydrogen cyanide is poison to everyone anytime, any day.
In essence, what is bad is bad. What is good is good.
If you want to terminate your life, that's on you. But don't say you didn't know.

its ok. Marry a virgin, virgins are the best. Can i drink my coke now?

TMTR:
You nailed it, and this should end the 'virginity doesn't gaurantee good character or a lasting marriage ' bullshit talk

one man food is another man poison

jeromestarks:
They have fish brains.
The more reason you should look for a virgin as a man; you don't want a woman with fish brain to bear your kids do you?

sorry, i need neither of them. I was just passing by.

jeromestarks:
Character! Exactly!
If her character is SO good she would have remained a virgin till she met her husband.
Any woman who lost her virgin to a man other than her husband does not have a character that will make her faithful to you. Even if you're married to her for 12 years, one day, she will begin to frustrate you and that will lead to your death or total destruction.

some lost their virginity by force,some 2ru seduction, and others were deceived by men who promised marriage

MaxInDHouse:
Olódo!

sorry i dont get u

MaxInDHouse:
You only need to ask his true disciples to teach you instead of quoting him out of context!

Jesus said:

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always,, even unto the end of the world. Matthew 28:19-20

What Jesus meant is religious title chiefs known by outsiders who don't believe in what they teach yet calling them by religious titles in the society.
Among Jehovah's Witnesses it's only members that knows those serving as prophets, teachers, shepherds and apostles in our midst unlike those in false religions that are popular in the society even among those who don't believe what they teach.

So humble yourself and learn your dogs won't protect you when God's Kingdom comes to destroy faithless humans! Revelations 21:8

Luke 6:39

Some virgins could be more wicked than non virgins. Again, some non virgins could make a happy marriage. Its the individual character that matters, not virginity!

abuwidad:
Good question. Are you sure the kids are yours?

hey! See me-o! My mind been no go dat side b4-o! But dis bros fit talk true-e

MaxInDHouse:
Just say you don't want to hear anything about God because Jesus appointed 12 Apostles in the midst of countless disciples {Luke 6:13} and they were LEADING the disciples as they TEACH them {Act 2:42} according to Paul all the disciples were to obey what the APOSTLES say {Hebrews 13:7} so you don't know what Jesus said.

Jesus never condemn the idea of overseers among his disciples rather his admonition to faithful individuals is to IDENTIFY their leaders by FRUIT! Matthew 7:16-18

Jehovah's Witnesses organization has produced all the qualities of God's Holy Spirit that's what millions around the globe SAW in the leaders of that organization! Matthew 5:14-16

so jesus was lying in Mat.23:8-10?

Fast & pray. 6 to 12 can do. Make sure u have her pics when u r praying & repeatedly ask God 2 kill the spirit of adultery in her.

MaxInDHouse:
Funny atheists!
Why not LEAD them since you don't want others to MISLEAD them?

i don't claim 2 be a leader. Rather u & ur 8 superior leaders claim a title that jesus had warn against!

MaxInDHouse:
Good! So there's no need quoting or mentioning me!

until u stop misleading people.

MaxInDHouse:
OP directed his questions to JWs and you're not one of JWs so what are you doing here?

u may not knw why i am here because ur Governing body dont dictate it 2 u,so keep asking.
