The Way in India

[themex]

I found this link to the Way in India, it said that it is from Joseph Vedras –Way Corps 1986-1991.

In TWM of sep/October 1981 TWI coordinator for India was Sangat Bains but in the May/June magazine of 2001 They Just recognize work in this countries Angola, Argentina; Australia, Belgium, Benin, Canada, Cile, Colombia, Congo, Cote dÍvoire, Democratic Republic of the Congo (Zaire), Dominican Republic, El Salvador, France, -Gabon, Germany, Guam, Italy, Mexico, New Zeland, Niger, Peru, Philipines, Portugal, Saint Lucia, Togo, Trinidad and Tobago, United Kingdom, U.S. Virgin Islands, Venezuela. But not India.

Sangat is still active in India but he's affiliated with CFF.

The website uses the Way logo, so I would assume that it's TWI's affiliate in Indai.

Sangat has been independently active in India for decades. Yes, he came and taught at CFF.....but I wouldn't classify him as "affiliated with CFF." He's his own man......like a Peter W@de.

I wonder how they maintain the "accuracy" of The Word as they translate TWI teachings into their language?

The website appears "frozen in time". looks almost exactly like twi of the mid-seventies..

The pages "About us" and "Statement of Beliefs" are clearly lifted straight from something TWI put out - an earlier edition of their own website, probably.

The rest is written in quirky style, by a non-native English speaker (and God bless his little cotton socks, he writes better English than most of us could write Hindi, so I'm not knocking him). There's quite an interesting little section about "What is religion?"

Sangat has not been affiliated with TWI for decades. He hangs out with CFFM but has a huge ministry in India. He also does tours in Europe and in the USA en route to CFFM. Because of the background in the Indian culture, he does not teach things that would be exactly as TWI would do it but (gasp) attuned to the cultural norms of the people he lives with.

That is almost word-for-word from one of the older classes or Way Magazine articles. I can't remember which one at the moment.

In CFF web site they have a video: "A call to India, Marcho 2005" http://www.cffm.org/doc/2005india_presentation.shtml,

is like the old VPW trip to India. In it appears John Shroyer.

In the internet just exist TWI splinters web sites but no TWI International Outreach countries.
