ought to be treated as flatly unreliable. - Hodgkinson, again, ought to be treated as flatly unreliable. She had no academic expertise whatsoever and as far as I remember, what prompted her very-apolegetic portrayal of the movement was her husband veering away with the BKs into celibacy.
Meh
- Encyclopedia entries —— be it the Routledge Encyclopedia of New Religious Movements or else — ought to be sparingly used.
- Whaling's Understanding the Brahma Kumaris (Dunedin University Press; 2012) is a primer aimed at undergraduates. A merrily sympathetic treatment, in what is one of the two academic monographs on the subject, it is quite flawed.
- Manderson and Tomlinson are anthropologists by training; the latter, particularly of practiced religion. So, I have not much qualms with using Brahma Kumaris: Purity and the Globalization of Faith (Springer; 2012) but we ought not depend on it for reconstructing the curious history of Brahmakumaris (BK).
- Tamasin Ramsay's thesis from Monash University.
Yes
- Publications by John Walliss, esp. The Brahma Kumaris as a Reflexive Tradition: Responding to Late Modernity (Motilal Banarsidass; 2007).
- Prem Chowdhury's masterly Marriage, Sexuality and the Female 'Ascetic': Understanding a Hindu Sect (EPW; 1996).
