I have to say that the New Age thing you hate so much Bilbo, I wont endulge with them for other reasons.
It will eventually pass ,all things do.
I study and practice a very ancient path nothing new about it at all.
There are truths and half truths or as some say serpentine truths.
But if you want (the truth) you have to first (care to really know )then ask for it to show up and it will in whatever form you can handle at whatever stage your at. This I cant prove 'for you',only you can ask from the heart. If you have the guts to do so,it will turn up in some form and you will begin your own about face and return from self emposed seperation.
In regards New Age , I see them mostly as people worshiping the tools of the universe or God instead of looking to where it and they all stem from.These new age people are the same as the ones who are scared of the light of love, scared of their own shadows, scared of where they have originated from.

Religion is man made and its just another place for many others to hide away in too.



I find it funny that people think it is a weakness to hold a belife other than the one they belive.

It is what causes war it is what continues their own personal seperation from other humans and other life forms.
It is the 'them and us 'syndrome that this 3rd dimension of life keeps bringing to the boil rising it to the top and frying it in the light of Gods sun.
This world is going so fast now regarding progression due to knowledge being released,science catching up via new measureing implements etc that if you feel threatened from any of it now wait until all the lines meet in agreement.

On another note:
My daughter at the age of twelve years looked behind a middle aged female friend of ours and said I can see a tall man behind you.
She asked if he had any messages for her.
My daughter said HE is your relative and he is here to protect your new born from others in this old area of Sydney.
The LAdy was smart she asked my daughter for proof.
My daughter turned to her and said "BIg shoulders" and the lady cried and said "ITs my grandfather" I can only remember one thing and that was him carrying me around everywhere laying down across his shoulders with my head one end and my feet the other.
That was a business woman and that all happened out of the blue.
