I understand what you are saying, and I think you are right because some of these teachings are oriented on the cult of the personality. That cannot replace or subs***ute the relationship that exists between us and the living God.

Yes, it is good to have some life skills, a code to live by, wisdom, also a positive mind, but this should be secondary to the faith. I ***ociate the New Age movement to a resurgence of a form of shamanism and sometimes to some very occult practices. ECKANKAR is one example.

Two weeks ago I have found that my weekly water seller is a member of ECKANKAR (I do not drink tap water). He let me a book, and I will try to ***ess that cult with some discussions with him. They affirm to teach many levels of conscience. He even told me that he visited Paris in an astral trip. This seems interesting.

May God protect me.
