Even the God the Mother videos that I watched use a style of rhetoric (I hesitate to use the word "preaching") very similar to that of evangelical Christianity, such as saying that all you need to do is invite God into your heart/life and God will take care of everything. I've only seen that said in that particular sect of Christianity.

Perhaps it would be interesting to look at the preaching of ISCKON (the "Hare Krishna" movement). This western-popularizing, but largely orthodox Hindu movement uses such appeals as:

Only chant: "Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare" [etc.] and your life will become divine.

Now you could certainly say that this may have been influenced by evangelical preaching, but it is just as much influenced by the mediaeval Caitanya movement which has always advocated chanting as "the one thing needful". Have the two movements anything in common? Yes indeed. They are both recognizing (Caitanya devotees consciously, evangelicals - who, much as they may attempt to reject evolutionism, remain in thrall to progressism - unconsciously) that in this latter age maid is far less capable than she has ever been before in the spiritual domain and that simple methods must be presented to us. Honored Raya Chancandre's preaching on the Kinema (homepage of this site) does not specifically mention chanting as it is intended to appeal to "big tent Deanism", but this specific appeal has long been made by the Sucrishi Movement. Naturally, both ISCKON and the Evangelicals, having made their one, simple demand, add many others once one has signed up for their "churches"! We, on the other hand have no church. Not because we are opposed to them or think their demands for greater sanctity wrong (they may be in some cases but not in principle) but simply because it is not at this time our mission, as a site, to create a church, but to inform and elucidate. There are Deanic and Filianic congregations, both all-female and mixed and we certainly wish them all well. And we think the best of them believe, as we do, that in the absence of a true inherited tradition, and in these latter days of Kali Yuga, the best way is the Gentle Way.
