How do people buy into this shit, everything about it is fake as fuck, I can't listen to these channelers for more than 10 seconds and just laugh at how fake and gay it is, at the very best they're channelig demons who are trolling them with bullshit.

New Age ideology can be easily disproven in about five seconds by anyone over the age of 12 with even a single iota of critical thinking skills. This is why so many women are drawn to new age stuff, because they lack basic critical thinking ability.
>>
>>42541489
The new age draws in hedonists mostly. You know the type of insufferable neurotic sort who demands that everything needs to feel good? Otherwise it must be bad? That's the sort of person who falls for new age shit. The new-ager has no concept for things like: "long-term", or "delayed gratification" or "long-suffering" or "sacrifice". For them spirituality needs to be an amusement park that has nothing but pleasing musings or ideas and that's all.

This is why psychopaths love leading new age cults or organisations because it's the easiest money they could ever make. All they need to do is wear a fake smile and muddy some waters and hedonistic retards eat it up.

the astral projection/lucid dreaming subwave of the new age wave is the only really worthwhile subgroup to look into desu, lot more going on there than with the Crystal or fake witch/wicca folks.

I hate this! Why?
Because it's so boring

Most of the new age is based on real metaphysical stuff, which is why it kind works for people. But it's so watered down, it's in it's least effective form. And it's filled with scammers, hacks, grifters ect. Not that Christianity hasn't also become the same thing.
But most people seek and authority figure and are afraid of magic. And that's probably for the best. However being scammed isn't great either.
>>
That's because New Age religion was more a social than a genuine spiritual wave. It was in a way in the right place, a genuine desire to detach oneself from the material world and the duty to hold a "position" in an increasingly artificial game of political chess. But instead of looking for ancient well-established philosophies, it was more a collection of all sorts of different aesthetical and secular practices. A bit of buddhism here, a bit of hinduism there, a bit of mesoamerican, native american, greek, egyptian, celtic etc. etc. The greatest irony is these hippy boomers were taken advantage of by a new wave of entrepreneurs which brought them back strongly into the materialism they wished to escape from.
>>
>>42541489
Did you notice that just about anything is made up these days yet everyone participating does more or less benefit from being fake and gay? What discerns New Age spirituality from other kinds of bullshit is that New Age spirituality is among the least sustainable delusions to have, because most other religions incentivize survival and reproduction while New Age spirituality is a death cult.

René Guénon saw it coming back in the 1920s. He wrote a book during this period on what a crock Theosophy is.

Welcome to the new age.

>everything about it is fake as fuck
That's because God can be said to be fake as fuck, so instead of bringing back the old gods, we can just create a better god.
After 2000 years, all of this teachings are a little out of date e.g. treating your slaves like you would treat your brother.

We supposedly did away with slavery but here we are

>>42541489
New age and shamanism are the only true religions
What you call new age is just the secret teachings of all ages repackaged
I’m sorry you’re too stupid to understand this

Christianity is fake too just cause its old doesnt mean shit. Cant show proof of any of its paranormal claims. Physical locations and items can be transformed to fit any design.

making your own creative traction outside of church is the only way to get anywhere in life if you find your formal options distasteful.

yeah it sucks that almost all the influencers are tedious.

take the ways of looking at it and drop the sanctimony that bullshit artists put out as infotainment, and you have viable culture, in private, that helps you sleep at night and see past people's foibles that we're all drops of god

in small doses, clif high, james true, john lamb lash, nandas from unlimited you, chase hughes, david mcewen, are all rad.

frowny face bad, smiley face good. it's the hylic mantra. some languages do not even differentiate between angry and evil.

I'd throw in the retarded neo-gnosticism we see so often on here.
>>
>>42546338
>Do not even differentiate between angry and evil
Fuck. Tell me about it. That one problem alone is the cause of most of societies problems today, especially here in the west. Toxic positivity has done more social damage than negativity ever could. That's just a fucking fact.

People focus so much on 'niceness' that they will even chase it to the point of completely dishonesty. Honesty is no longer practiced at large any more. Because everyone only wants to hear truths that make them feel good. Truths that feel bad are just cast away. People make me sick.

>>42546439
>neo-gnosticism
Agreed. That would make 99.9% gnostics part of the new age shit pile.
>>
Blanket hatred for new age and gnosticism is a sign of a peak /x/ midwit.
>>
>>42546537
>new age
Well you really don't need to justify your hatred for the new age.
As its pretty obvious why its considered a joke.

But I will give some reasons here:
>Watered down Hinduism
>LSD is the peak of its spiritual inhiation
>"Everything is prefect"
>Spiritual nihilism
>"True enlightenment is knowing we are all already enlightened"
>Left wing
And the people it fosters is absolute shit. it claims to be void of ego but produces the most egocentric hedonistic people I know.

Its just a feel good type of religion.

>gnosticism
I don't have much hatred with Gnosticism though there are some things I disagree with

The hatred of gnosticism on /x/ more or less comes form the gnostic midwits on here.
>99% of the self proclaimed Gnostics here have never even touched a single piece of gnostic literature.
>If you disagree with them they will pull the superiority card and call you a hylic
>If you press them on their beliefs this as deep as a pancake because all their knowledge comes form /x/ shity threads
>"just refuse the light", how? and if we do what then? (I somewhat understand how to respond to my question, but on their own vices the average /x/ gnostic will just be unable to answer)
>Clams to be gnostic but if you ask them what sect, they will be surprised that there are even sects of Gnosticism
Gnostics here are just extremely uninformed about their own religion and are raging narcissist

In my opinion its an overly pessimistic religion

>>42541504
>This is why so many women are drawn to new age stuff, because they lack basic critical thinking ability.
No they're all under monarch mind control.

>>42546537
>Blanket hatred for new age and gnosticism is a sign of a peak /x/ midwit.
I don't hate gnostics or new agers as individuals. But the ideologies of new age and gnosticism is where brain cells go to die. Gnosticism has no theological backbone at all. Not a single gnostic can agree with another gnostic on any of the supposed tenets of gnosticism, and it's because gnosticism has nothing to it besides schizophrenic tier word association games.

>This deity is actually that God
>Who is actually this Titan worshipped by this culture
>But this culture is actually informed by this ancient people
>And these ancient people understood the Titan as this demigod, who is actually just a persona of (This actual God)

Gnosticism has no congruence even to itself. It's designed for false mystics and sophists to play a parlour game where they get to feel like the main character of spirituality. The gnostic doesn't want answers or truth, only mysteries and endless mental games.

Start and end with the Greeks. Simple as. Everything after is an abomination.

New agers arent gnostics reading fucking Allan watts and pretending its profound while dancing around with tarot and crystals is for angsty teenagers and women

ngl it gives me nostalgic fuzzy vibes. and it's not quite as cringey as xtianity or buttism, it's more of a sappy neon hallmark walmart kind of cringe.

The Secret is dedicated to Thoth. The person who wrote it likely was channeling.

imagine how much confusion came from foggy, unclear translations. "camel through the eye of needle" came about because in that language, "gamel" could be an animal camel, or it could be a thick rope. but people don't think of putting a thick rope through a needle.
the absence of nuance in many world languages and the dispersal of ideologies sure had some funny effects.
hell, i frequenly have to whip out words like "philos", "eros", "agape" because "love" generally means "really really like that thing", or "i want to fuck and violate and diddle daddle". genuine sincere heartfelt giving love with a serious face is a concept absolutely completely ABSENT from hylics.

here's a little thing few know about, and it's hard to articulate due to lack of discussion, as it's a fairly elusive thing. you gotta really go through the shit first-hand, run the gauntlet, be squeezed through the wringer, and go through situations few people would ever consider.

at the end of the day, Light and Dark are in a constant struggle. an eternal dance. one occasionally overtakes the other, then the wave crashes when the overtook takes revenge. the Monad and the Void.
earth is of the void type. everything here degrades. all the mighty works are sandcastles. all the great arts are eaten by mold. entropy is the ruling force.

and when we aware souls have to butt heads with stupid butt-heads, we realize there's a Not So Different situation going on here.
notice how german characters are portrayed in cartoons. they're depicted as uncanny, have weird voices, a strange piercing stare, fat jovial disposition - that is how earthlings view aryans. it's a grotesque caricature. "aryan" isn't a race, it's a generation. there's several species that are called "aryan" upon deployment for their first run on earth.
they can't comprehend our cool, collected logic and self-control. they find it robotic. we think their explosive, excessive emotional outbursts over a puddle-deep whim is animalish, stupid, childish. we will never be able to connect. an earthling will go ballistic and throw a giant tantrum over a tiny thing, and 2 days later he has absolutely zero recollection on it. he can't even fathom "next week" unless it's some public event.

the light of logic is harsh and needful. it knows what it must do, and put aside emotion. emotion is an animal to be controlled. that's why we seem like cold robots to screeching monkeys.

never really articulated these personal revelations, but lemme try some more...
the, ahem, "locals" upon da erf seem to have un-eaten the metaphorical fruit of knowledge of good & evil. idk what was lost in translation for that story, there's many different ways to take it, but there's a much much much better "first peoples" story that i'll try to recount later, that seems more realistic.
you gotta realize the role samsara plays, the entropy of the earth cycles, the lossy cycles. each time the wheel turns, things enshittify. the copied copies just get worse and worse.
once the real Gods cut off the people who didn't make the cut, those people get stranded on earth PERMANENTLY, and that's the end of that. they lose their literacy but can remember how to make clothes and tools. but over time, they lose their capacity for speech. they frequently burst out into non-sequitur tirades about how "grr da eebil arlians ruined our land!!!" impromptu. this gives all of them away. it's inherent to earthling nature. the ground hates the sky. they sky sees the ground as a sandbox to play in, the ground thinks it's a Stronk Independent Sandbox that don't need no sky. but when the sky decides the sanbox is too shitty, the sandbox flips out, screeches, threatens, and tries to force the sky to stay. obviously this won't work. earthlings can't learn from mistakes because... monkeys just don't learn. that would require admitting they were wrong, and that's the step they can't do. humility didn't enable survival in the harsh wilderness.

everything boils down to dark and light, 0 and 1. have and have-not. when a dirt creature sees a light creature, they remember what they lost and they just feel unfairly ripped off. they can't self-reflect. they can't differentiate between the smart boss and the stupid grunt. and that's the foundation of commie uprisings.

monkeys view violence as standard, and quietness as absence.
>>
>>42548111
better first peoples story:
>there's some dumb dirt hominids
>gods decide to knock em up with engineered hybrids with souls
>dirt people are happy to birth nice, pretty, smart, glowing children
>dirt people then birth dirt kids
>dirt people realize their bio kids don't have the glow, are shitty, and realize that they're just talking animals
>dirt people begin to hate the souled people

also i didn't see this hey arnold ep, but i saw a screenshot and knew there was some gold in it. apparently the story is, big mean bully saxon got some twerp hooked on crack, i mean chocolate. this show also uses "smoothies" with rum, but the rum is left unmentioned. it's an allegory for either wyte man's fire water, or crackedy ass reptos selling crack to inner city yoofs. the hidden story is it's a rehash of:
>first we wuz enjoying the good life of loincloths and sticks and huts
>an den de AYLIUMZ from another planet came along and forced us to drink the fire water and forced us to snort de crack and punished us for acting according to our nature, and told us that eating our neighbors was wrong, and punished us for taking things we need, and put us in gulags because they're just big meanies"

if it weren't for the industrial revolution, we wouldn't need all these stupid peasants.

The two things that bothers me most with new agers. 1/ They are hucksterers. Always trying to make a buck by selling you spiritual knowledge. 2/ They always think they are superior than you, even if you have read serious books about esoterism, or meditated more than them.
One good thing is that they are less popular with the zoomers, especially with zoomer boys.
>>
>>42543582
New agers i know are extremely far from mastering the concepts of Manly P. Hall. If only. In reality they are all dumb fucks who have not even basic esoteric knowledge. And the few who do have some true knowledge are scary because often they are part of a cult. If one is to chose a watered down esoteric movement, Anthroposophy is better than new age.

Almost as fake as judaism.

I am going to say something insane, but New Age is so cringe that at least Judaism with the Kabbalah and all the history it got has way more merit than THIS.
