Well Subud is gearing up for its next world Congress to be held in New Zealand this year. It appears to be falling apart at the seams as a Subud friend was explaining recently to me. It now comprises of mainly older members who remember the 'good ol days' when Bapak was alive and touring around and younger members who don't really have much idea of the brotherhood ethos Subud once epitomized.
Countless committees are drawn up in an effort to breathe new life into a dying organisation but the collapse seems imminent as the decay slowly erodes any enthusiam left. The Enterprise' front lags along as one after another of their business ventures collapse and fall inward. The social work efforts seem little better though they do contribute in this area to the community in poorer countries in the way of some schools and suchlike.
Inevitably though because of its foundation it will either fade away or metamorphisize into some type of community activity such as 'Tai Chi' with remote memories of its history long forgotten in some such dusty library cared for by some old doddery Subud custodian whose life long passion was to spread 'Subud' all over the world but barely has the energy now to do much except reminisce on the glorious old days of Subud at its peak.
We as Christians can firmly rest on Gods word forever settled in the heavens. The Kingdom of God will stand forever is a promise we stand on as we look for the glorious appearing of our Saviour and God, the Lord Jesus Christ.
