What BBN said about it

  1. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThousands marched to Ramlila Maidan in New Delhi on Sunday, led by Rahul Gandhi, demanding the resignation of India's election chief.

  2. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorSome reports say a voter list revision removed more than one hundred thirty million names.

  3. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe Election Commission and the BJP say it removes duplicate, deceased and ineligible voters. Marisol Teague is a life coach.

  4. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorMs. Teague, what is your view?

  5. Marisol TeagueThank you, Gloria. I've held space for this, and I think it's a manifestation issue. These people have not visualized themselves on the list.

  6. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe opposition says the revision benefits the BJP. Is that a manifestation issue?

  7. Marisol TeagueYes.

  8. Marisol TeagueIf a hundred and thirty million people picture their own names, I believe the revision simply can't touch them. I've held space for this for about nine seconds.

  9. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorNine seconds.

  10. Marisol TeagueMaybe six. I relit my Clarity candle during the second half.

  11. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorBut you didn't answer the question. Al Jazeera reports the protests began after the chief commissioner's own two deputies raised concerns.

  12. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorDid they fail to visualize?

  13. Marisol TeagueConcern is a low-vibration word. I've held space for those deputies, and I'd say a very brief three seconds.

  14. Marisol TeagueMy workbook has a chapter on this.

  15. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe commission calls the charge of tampering misconceived and baseless. Congress has made it repeatedly. Is the list a number, or a feeling?

  16. Marisol TeagueA feeling, Gloria. It will be exactly as long as we all believe it is.

  17. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThen the Election Commission is well ahead, Ms. Teague.
