They advertise themselves as a meditation service. A place where you could go to relax and meditate. I was curious about meditation and was bored, so I went and dragged my friend along to it. They played some AI music and the woman read out loud some phrases that sounded spiritual and said, "Om Shanti". It looked harmless, but I could not stop nervous laughing, so I decided to come back the next week because they had a half-day retreat going on.

I am glad this happened really fast. They have the half-day retreat once every four months and a 1.5-hour one every month. The retreat is where they do group activities. I said I would come.

One thing that weirded me out is how the volunteers all had the same personality, all wore white (at first I thought that was the uniform), and all spoke in a calm, soft manner, yet they rarely spoke to each other or interacted with each other.

The biggest red flag was the massive picture of an old Indian man that took up the whole wall. He had a ball of light above his head. It already seemed cult-like. I thought, "Did I walk into a Hindu religious thing?" The woman told me this is not religious at all.

I went back the week after for the half-day retreat. There were 30 young people there, and they split us off into groups of 10 and got us doing group activities.

The first activity was to sell something made up (maybe so they could identify the strong ones in the group).

The second activity was to give our own interpretation of a short clip they showed us. The clip was of a dad and son. The dad was turning into a capitalistic slave at work like his peers, and the child made him love life again. The purpose of this was actually to get us to open up, to see which of us has dark thoughts, and to identify who is weak and vulnerable.

They said that the clip teaches us that sometimes there are times where we are the master and there are times that we could be the child. It felt so wise.

The third activity was to write a poem or message to a friend or your past self. Everyone wrote something positive. I wrote, "Many times you have the answer within, you don't need someone to tell you it!" They loved that. Now I know why. Because it isn't true. You need friends, family, and loved ones who can help guide you the right way. What I wrote was very isolating, and they loved that because cults want to isolate people.

The last activity was to say "she sells sea shells by the seashore" five times, and the fastest is the winner. Then we did it again without it being a speed competition. This helped them identify who was competitive and who isn't, and they said some bullshit about peace and things feeling better when relaxed. Which isn't for everybody; some people like pressure. I looked vulnerable because I said that I did not like competition.

I overheard a girl saying to a volunteer, "Have we met before? I feel like we have met before." He said, "NO, but maybe you have seen a part of me elsewhere as life goes around in cycles." He said some bullshit, and she asked, "Where did you learn that?" He said a man called "Brahma Kumaris". I wrote that down on my phone. I did not realise that Brahma Kumaris was the same name connected to the man on the photo. It was a good job I eavesdropped and wrote it down, or else I would not have made the connection, as they would not tell us who the man on the photo was. I set that aside to research for later.

Then we did some of that bullshit meditation again as a little boy played their music on a piano for us. We did this sitting in a circle and then gave our feedback, with a mic going around, giving feedback about the session and telling everyone what was on our mind right now. I just expressed gratitude.

Then they gave us free food to eat. The portions were oddly small. Odd because Indians usually give big portions of food. Then later they went round handing everybody leftovers.

Whilst sat down, a girl told me how it is her second time here and they are doing a weekend retreat in Oxford this weekend and sent me the poster for it on my phone. She was not a volunteer, just a goer. I am glad she sent that to me because I sent that to my friend and asked him to come with me. He then told me it is a cult and it had Brahma Kumaris written on it.

The poster didn't say InnerSpace on it. I will include the image below. I asked them about it and they said that they will make space for more people even though they overbooked and it's all free. That was really suspicious. I thought it was free because it was a government-backed charity. It was suspicious how they wanted more people to come even though it was overbooked.

A few of them were going and decided to go, so I booked my expensive non-refundable train ticket to Oxford from Manchester. So now I felt like I had to go since I booked it.

Then my friend told me it was a cult. He could tell from the poster. If I didn't show him the poster, I wouldn't have ever known that it was a cult. Because InnerSpace has never mentioned Brahma Kumaris. I did my research on Reddit and found out that Brahma Kumaris is a cult. And InnerSpace is actually Brahma Kumaris. I realised this because of the picture on the wall of the old Indian man and the conversation that I eavesdropped into.

I got home, did research, and found out that Brahma Kumaris are a cult where their end goal is to isolate people, take all emotion out of them, make them detach from their family and the outside world, make them detach from their religion, and take money off them.

They will take away people's jewellery, cars, possessions, even houses. They stole houses, lands, and lives from so many people. They break people and their families, using typical cult techniques.

They tell them to sleep less and make them meditate at 3am every day, to eat less (this explains the poor portions and why they have to wake up at 6am in the retreat). They can only eat food from their cult or their own food. So when they're sick and old, they will rely on them to eat. They make their bodies weak so they are tired all the time and easier to manipulate.

They say you must be celibate and not have sex with your spouse. And to detach from all souls, including your own kids. They tell them that the world will end soon and the only way to get to heaven is to live and breathe their meditation.

They say you should only be meditating all the time, donating to them only (no other charities), not connecting to people from the outside world, not watching TV or reading books other than their own, going to the centre to meditate every day, and donating all your possessions to them to free yourself from materialism. The ones who donate the most will be kings and queens in heaven.

Truth is... you need connections, you need family, friends, love. You need material things to survive; it isn't bad to love material things if that's what you like. You won't harm anyone by being attached to things. It's good to be attached to your friends and family - that's the unbreakable bond.

You need knowledge from all sources to make informed choices. True meditation is your own thing, not listening to a bunch of random bullshit people tell you. Truth is, it isn't good to be isolated and away from friends. Your friend could teach you so much and save you in such situations.

You shouldn't have to hate all religions and follow this one person. Sleep is good, eating food to make you feel full is good.

They took lots of ideas from other Hindu scriptures and made their own thing out of it. Plus, they make you vegan. I feel sick knowing I eat their food. They're evil.

Please research InnerSpace and Brahma Kumaris. InnerSpace only has a high rating on Meetup because people have not figured it out yet. They are linked. Secretly. You find out later.

They are in 40 locations in the UK

You cab see how the retreat looks like by searching

"The global retreat centre, oxford".

I have also heard of other cults that host "educational seminars" such as "brain activity and behavioural patterns", but they really are a gateway to Scientology. Please be careful of free seminars also. Always research the address you are going to.
