because 99% ppl are unritical NPCs cannot hear others opinions, even cannot explain why they are holding some opinion you are just sexist ^^ literal bots that it is derealizing how stupid humanity is honestly!!!
Thank you!!! I hate the toxic positivity stuff. I can't picture Jesus preaching "Think positive!". I'm so sick of it. It's a relief when people are real, and down to earth and just real.
Do Not Worry 25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[e]?
As a woman, I approve of this message. I noticed a lot of women aren't there to support other women. Love bombing is not support. They leave you high and dry, and there's always envy. I let go of all my friends. All my friends were female. I was thinking a long time (years) about how I don't have male friends to have a male perspective on life. I wasn't allowed to have guy friends growing up (my toxic family is another can of worms), and it really crippled my social relationship outlook. I couldn't just make guy friends on the whim in my 20s, either. It's get harder the older you grow and, the people around me don't have any intention of being friends unless there's a motive (both men and women). I got sucked into spiritual bullshit too. I'm just glad I didn't buy into everything naively. In some way, it did help me find my way to God. I've always been the type to question things from my childhood. It's the main reason why I was subjected to so much abuse and neglect.
Their are many narcissists in Christianity as well. Demons love to be worshiped in church and have the ability to make the parishioners have euphoria during sessions. I agree with your opinion about the new age as I participated in that scene as well. After leaving different groups (not all new age groups) I witnessed them falling apart soon after I would leave. I helped several people leave these groups and wondering if I was an undercover agent and you may be as well. People are not in touch with their subconscious mind and is what is running your personal show/movie. Narcissists are in all groups and these narcissists are feeding off of other's energy and reflecting it back to you and why you may feel good in the beginning. Thank you for sharing!
Yes, definitely a lot of narcissists in Christianity. I keep thinking "What is so hard for Christians to get their head around, about do unto others as you would have them do unto you?", and Jesus said He will separate the sheep from the goats based on how we treated HIM in the person of others. I don't see this in churches. It's all about getting a spiritual high, or maybe getting a position of some sort of authority to lord over others and be important. When people tell me they got the Holy Spirit, I know to run. People who truly have the Holy Spirit are quiet and kind, and don't use having the Spirit as an rationale for why you have to obey them. Jesus said "If you love me, you will keep my commandments" - like do unto other as you'd have them do unto you. This doesn't seem to be part of the contemporary church scene. It's all about getting a spiritual high, and more spiritual than thou, or getting on payroll, or in a position to boss others around. Argh. I've started going back to church, but I do feel anxiety.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I was duped by the new age movement while searching for help with some self improvement. I felt like I could not fully accept it and began searching for guidance amongst Christians and realized how self-centered the new age movement is. This is not of God. I also realized I was easily lured/duped because I don’t know God’s word as well as I thought I did. As soon as I started reading my Bible again and going back to church I could see what the enemy was trying to do. Satan is truly the ultimate deceiver using some truth laced with dangerous lies. I thank Jesus for protecting and guiding me while I went through this phase.
When I read about Dolores Cannon talking about non-player characters, and how they don’t have souls, and how evil doesn’t exist, just love and fear, I knew I was in trouble. Thank you for this video.
She was trying to speak from a spiritual standpoint where in the eyes of spirit, there’s only love and fear but for us humans good and evil does exist. It’s really complex & you have to know what she’s saying but it’s really an ungrounded point of view which is why I don’t subscribe to the whole “evil doesn’t exist” schtick.
@@Y.0o0 Dolores is demonically oppressed just like anyone who channels. These "spirits" that she channels information from are lying to her regularly mixing truth with lies to make it more impressionable to whomever is listening to her. That's how these spirits operate. It's demonic.
Hi, I'm from Poland, however my ex is involved in this New Age, astrology etc. and believe me: being narcissist and involved in New Age is a tragedy! I believe in God so I knew how to love him, but he thought only about himself and couldn't love other people.
@karolinakumiega8996: You do find lots of narc pastors and leaders in fundamental churches, cult and communities - religious people are not any better if it comes to narc behavior.
@@claudiaschneider5744yeah i've been in the spiritual community for years but started to notice the tactics and marketing going on and took a step back but i also noticed hundreds of people going from new age to christian but i wasn't really convinced as i believed they were falling in to another trap, it does seem the last few years has helped to develop discernment and awareness whilst observing both sides, it's like collectively something is happening.
When I had a bad attitude because of being tired of praying to God and nothing really happening, I thought I’d be better off in the new age. Because it lies and gave me a false sense of power. Nothing has more power than God. It made me love myself tooooo much. I pained the Holy Spirit by behaving this way and He has been here along side of me helping me with my attitude and the choices that I make. Jesus loves us sooo much, He really wants us to know that
God never promised you a rose garden or the fulfillment of your prayers, especially if prayers are asking for material benefits. We are here to meet challenges with courage instead of trying to pray all challenges away.
I'm back listening to this again. This is the BEST most incitful video on the subject that I've ever heard. The scenerio with the positive group walking off a cliff (telling eachother "stay positive"). I have a story that happened with a LOA/positivity friend that was very similar to that!
Totally agree! My ex narc has “awakened” and is “ascending”!spouts on about being a chosen one… when he lies/manipulated/cheats, is the most selfish unempathic person I know! Is the worst father… and yet he thinks he’s better than us mere mortals who are not awakened!! He even thinks he’s an expert on healthy relationships and his word is right!! It’s laughable and quite fascinating how he thinks of himself and others!
Great video man!! The people who are in this strange fake-positivity movement are really going to be hit hard by the 7-year tribulation. Hopefully many of them will come to The Lord Jesus before it is too late!!! Thanks for creating this video, I thought it was very insightful!! Keep up the great work, Praise The Lord!
I just stumbled upon your video. Thank you for sharing this information. So many people need to hear this that are stuck in the new age movement. My prayer is that they find you, and God speaks through your videos. Many thanks!❤
so true. I'm a woman of 43 years, the Netherlands. And i see women are more busy with themself and how they look for the outside world. Instead of looking inside and find joy there. I'm now training for a trail here, working hard and not even busy with how other people look at me. But instead just living my life and helping people when it needed. New age is just a mask. Just live you're life, feed your kids, be nice and responsible, that's real life spirituality.
Ohh emm gee I can’t thank you enough!!! Thank you Thank you so so much for explaining this so well. My bestie just got baptized in April and gave his life to Jesus well I could tell he was making up excuses not to go to church and pulling away l, well he finally admitted to me yesterday that he has been reading on New Age for the past 2 months and I was like NO NO NO NO! I asked why are you still searching he said he wasn’t he was just interested so I sent him this video ASAP he came over hugged me for a long time and had tears and said thanks for sending me this video. I learned so much more in a 20 minute video than I did in 2 months about New Age and how it’s not good. I prayed so hard for him as I sent the video and before he came over. So Tbanks again so much if I wasn’t the one able to change his mind about the real God and Jesus you sure did and I will forever be grateful to you. May God continue to bless you and your family 🙏 ❤ 🤲
The narc was teaching me things from the Bible that I did not know. He knew a lot about the book of Enoch. He also deceived me with the whole positive manifestation. It was until his mask fell and started to devalue me for not having a millionaire mindset and not working to reach such goals. I told him God will give me whatever I need. He became so angry! He's literally a sheep in wolfs clothing because he has no fruits of the holy spirit only pretend to have it to get whatever he wants. They really have a retrobate mind and it is sad.
As someone who was in the new age for 5-6 years i can say that i never could find the name of what i was following and i was in a constant state of euphoric confusion because of the teachings. I attracted many narcissistic friendships where i was getting constantly betrayed and attracted a narcissistic women who destroyed me. I recently turned towards Christianity and everything about new age has been revealed to me in that span of time now im 100% certain that i attracted these people and circumstances and situations due to the teachings and beliefs of the new age religion. Anyone reading this please tell anyone you know who is in new age to get out as someone who can verify that what i gained was not worth what i lost in the process at all and itll leave you feeling empty regardless leave, youll only find that wholeness and peace through jesus.
Such a good video brother. Ive been trying to explain this for so long and you summed it up brilliantly. I was surrounded by this and could not fit in.I have not many friends now. This is why I have found my faith again in Jesus. I have subscribed and hope to hear more from you in the future. Thank you for putting this out there. God bless
Interesting experience and viewpoint. I see parts of the world getting worse and worse, too, all the while I genuinely feel better, more at peace and more blissful week after week. I agree with your view about many people misusing new age spirituality for their own gains, and yet there are others who are truly living examples of what a human being can be in terms of manifesting the divine on earth. I guess it all depends on what each of us has chosen to learn in this lifetime. Thanks for sharing your perspective!
You are so right! My positive thinking of the New Age believes brought me into depression. I was ignoring "red flags" with people. I think that I have to trust that everything will be ok once I think positively. I was ignoring red flags hoping that "positive thinking only" would bring positive results. I was used by a man; hoping I met a true love "twin flame". A new age destroyed my life. I am in the depression stage now
With all the people involved in new age spirituality and if new age spirituality is what it claims to be the world should be evolving into peace rather than wars and all the other nefarious things coming in the forefront wouldn't have such control. New age spiritualism is a form of anti-christ capturing people who do not have a relationship with Yahuah the most high God. Fortunately, some people like you have come to learn its deception and share with others. When I came to this understanding I returned to Yah, quit yoga, and made other changes in my life. Yes, the most high God, creator of all things, is to be honored rather than the creation.
I was a born again Christian for over 20 years and experimented with some of new age for 10 years. I am agnostic when it comes to anything that can not be proven with my own eyes and experience. It feels great to be free from both Christianity and new age spirituality.
This is a really great video. I have been trying to figure out a way to do my new age testimony so definitely respect how you are articulated everything.
Another Great Food-for-Thought Video Cory! It is important to talk about these Topics, as not everything is at it seems and some People dont even get these Ideas of "Oh, something does not fit". Sometimes the Appearance of exactly these Things, randomly appearing on someones Recommandation List or a mentioning of this topic, can change many lives. It is our duty to educate the those who still walk the Path of the Fool as Fate will direct these Videos towards those who are deserving or need it. Im glad you are talking about this Topic and your Experience about it. How you thrived and climbed out of that Phase, as your it gives your Arguments more Weight and Understanding. Narcissism is a huge Problem everywhere, as mentioned before under another Video. And sometimes Movements overlap with each other, an example: As you mentioned: More Women get a more inflated Ego due to New Age Sprituality spouting that everybody is a God/Goddess. Modern Feminism and Hook-Up-Culture speak of the same principle: You are Women = You are a goddess = You deserve more than the common Man or Men. Yet, also Social Media is one of the deep Roots and a steadfast Creator and Supporter of this modern Narcissistic "Tradition". So, looking at this from a big picture perspective, all fits perfectly together, Movements, Trends or Programs all cooperate with each other and act as a Catalyst for Narcissists or growing to be Narcissits. Its quite interesting, but yes also quite terrifying how Narcissism is blooming in these Modern Times, making the Daily Life and Social Interactions harder than it should be. Personally, its quite sickening to see and experience. Dealing with Narcissism can teach us alot how things are running in these Modern Times and how their Minds work, although I fully understand that it can be hard and emotional and can overwhelm anybody, but exactly these Enemies and Harsh times evolve us and make us in who we are meant to be. Keep fighting and keep up the good word.
Thanks so much for the thoughtful and encouraging comment. There are a lot of nourishing words here to chew on. I really appreciate your support and insights. May God bless you. 🙏🏼
@@ChirripoCory Youre full-heartedly Welcome, Cory! Im glad my Words were valuable to you. Thank you for doing the work that needs to be done. May your Path be a pleasant Journey.
21:39 it's so sad to see friends in the new age who have literally experienced their parent dying or they have literally been suffering from cancer and they just say "it's all good. I'm good. I'm not gonna be negative" like they won't even allow themselves to accept the reality and have the full spectrum of the human emotional experience. I agree people shouldn't dwell on hardship but to just completely deny yourself to feel grief and just to say that you're good when you're suffering or your parent dies, definitely toxic positivity and you can't tell them that it's OK to be sad because then they tell you that you're negative. It's so warped.
I totally agree with the points you made in this video. What I have learned after coming out of the New Age is that it is truly just rebranded satanism. All of the practices and things taught are the same things the church of Satan teaches. Satan is the most prideful and narcissistic being there is, so it makes sense that this movement is centered around self and discovering your own “divinity.” I agree with your point about women and the whole “goddess” thing too. I think this is pushed so much because it is the inverse of God’s creation. It makes sense that new age women are exalting themselves while new age men are emasculating themselves because that is exactly the opposite of what God wants. I think the new age ends up turning everyone into a narcissist unless you get out of it, although I think there are people who are aware of that and prey on impressionable people. All the friends I ever had as well as just the culture today, were narcissistic; I became that way too. Our world preaches self love and self care constantly, the new age is infiltrating the mainstream now too. It’s not as covert as it used to be. The Age of Aquarius actually comes from Alister Crowley. He was a satanist and the face behind the whole hippie revolution of the 60s, the psychedelic drug industry, and many influential rockstars’ idol like the Beatles and Led Zeppelin. He prophesied about this coming age and I think he was actually right. The Bible describes the new Heaven and the new earth that God will create when Jesus comes again in Revelation. Alister Crowley and the new age deceive people into believing that they will create it, when in reality God will. The new age is just gathering people together for the one world religion that will come in the end times, like you said just a bunch of sheep heading towards the edge of a cliff. I didn’t realize any of that stuff until I got out of it though, I didn’t even know the term new age until I was saved. It’s truly a cult. It was a narcissistic guy along with a lot of childhood trauma that sucked me into it, luckily Jesus saved me out of it though before it was too late. Praise God for you speaking up about these things!
Wow Haley, what an incredible comment. Thanks for your conviction. I agree with what you said about how the new age makes everyone in it narcissistic. I could definitely see how it was doing that to me and/or it was my own narcissistic tendencies that were attracted to it in the first place. You did a great job here illuminating how anti-God/Christ a lot of what’s going on in the new earth is. Thanks for your great comment and testimony. I’m glad we got out of it! Let’s pray more are to follow. God bless you. 🙏🏼
I got suckered into that narcissistic garbage aswell down the rabbit hole of psychadelics.. Ayahuasca iboga 5 meo dmt are dangerous breeding grounds for narcissists.. Its funny how you get told your the problem and when you mistakenly own up to the gas lighting nothing really changes and no healing is taking place .. your only being further traumatized.. its a sick twisted mind frame .. When i was in ayahuasca the demons would mock me for owning up to anything .. if you didnt own up to something they would mock you .. if you did own up to something they would mock you .. The shamans are a truly sick bunch of people and the most decieved
The idea is that you are God & it’s everyone making the new aeon come to fruition through the act of will… that’s how it’s thriving & will continue to thrive in the coming future. It’s time to wake up & come to the same conclusion that the Bible teaches you. People just aren’t connecting the dots to see the real truth in all of this.
As a "new age spiritualist" myself, if the belief is not for you then that's okay. For me, it happens to coincide with my own life experiences. Ultimately we are all seeking learning and truth, and I think that people can do that through different means. Where I agree with christians is that there is only one true god, and wanting to build a relationship with that through whatever means speaks to you is A okay in my book. Yes there are narcissists who are attracted to new age spirituality (I can see how the belief that you are also god can appeal to a narcissist), but from what I see there are narcissists in every faith, not to mention that that in and of itself does not disprove the faith. But my main point is that you do you - I am here to hear differing opinions to grow my own understanding.
Yes. This is one of the truest videos I have heard. We need unity, but unity in meaningful action. Believing only happy thoughts doesn’t feed hungry people. Feeding them does. I am not bought into the Christian church, I am reform Jewish; however, I am extremely pro critical thinking. AI and the new age is very willing to think for you, but when you examine it at all it crumbles.
The reason women gravitate to the idea of being a goddess is different though. For a long time the dominate religion has attempted to tell them not to speak in church, teach, etc. so of course they want to be empowered. Said church needs to acknowledge their role because cause and effect is also a very real thing.
I was sucked into new age thinking from tarot. Admittedly I was lonely, had no purpose, and was struggling for meaning. The tarot readings kept saying that things would work out and that I was going to be rich, be safe, etc. I ended up homeless for seven months, hungry for four months, and eventually wound up moving back in with an abusive family member. It preys on your instinct to believe. To want something better for yourself. I look back on some of the readings and realize how generic each one was. They would say one thing, and then the opposite, they would say another thing, and say not for everyone. One reading basically said just google what you want to find out and the answer you get is your spirit guides helping you. Definitely not a search algorithm that's been honed for decades, no it couldn't be that. /s I feel like such an idiot for believing in that stuff. Now I'm stuck living with a narcissist that tries to tear me down every time I get a job or make progress in my life. I have no money, no family, and one friend that lives states away.
Ugh, it’s true. Especially the yoga teachers. Yoga was such a hurtful and terrible addiction. I’d think the communities would welcome me and be caring but none of them were so, I’d hop around and never found love or acceptance.
Honestly whether or not someone is spiritual or not, everyone has a level of narcissism in today's day in age. Spiritual and Religious groups tend to have the majority of them. Far as I am concerned I gave up on the New Age scene after I realized people and all the concepts get blown out of proportion. I do think that some of it holds some ounce of truth in terms of self improvement but most of the people who end up preaching the ideas like Twin Flames, Toxic Positivity, and Age of Aquarius tends to exploit those who are unaware and the more I became stable after a serious mental health crisis I just began to see it for what it is. That's speaking to that set of beliefs in particular.
I think narcissists are in every religion. I've watched plenty of crime documentaries with so called christian pastors or people of the church who manipulated their mistresses into killing their wives, using Bible quotes. I think there are also narcissists in the community - the self-righteous narcissists who believe they are morally superior to everybody and judge their actions. But for the rest of the things - I think it's true that new age teachings spread a lot of bs. I've been dabbling in tarot readings and plenty of times I got angry because of the c*ap that was said with so much happiness and serenity. I don't believe in the power of crystals and positive thinking, in the ascension, transitions and whatever. Also - it is a lot of blaming, I would say, because they say "you'll not be able to attract what you want because you didn't work on yourself, you don't manifest the right way etc". According to them you will not get anything good in this life because you didn't heal enough your past traumas. So, you're kinda not enough and not deserving. 🙄 That can make you depressive because you feel like you always have to push a big boulder with no result.
I agree with you that narcissists are everywhere. They’re in the church as well for sure, as you note. And I agree so much about how those stories of “you failed bc you’re not deserving” are embedded within new age and manifestation culture. It is very cliquey in this respect: you’re either a part of the in-crowd of folks who are under the false light deception, or you’re thinking and critical and truth-oriented and thus prone to causing trouble to the demands of groupthink ideology that insists on advancing certain new age narratives. This way of subliminally gaslighting people for their hardships by making them think it is always their own fault is also lacking of empathy in a way that is classic of narcissistic abuse. Following Christ has taught me a lot about how essential mercy is to the human experience. Imagine what a cold world it would be if everyone regarded anyone going through a difficult time as someone who just needs to “work on themselves”. It’s actually a completely disgusting ideology when you sit with it long enough.
My holy ex, the holy mother of our daughter, a true spiritual sound healer wouldn't approve of your message. Her family and spiritual friends wouldn't approve either.
Great comment about the created vs the Creator. This stuff reminds me of what I think I understand Gnosticism is--both large "G" Gnosticism (a specific religion from the times of early Christianity), and small "g" gnosticism, which is an adjective which implies esoteric (inner, revealed "only to you") knowledge as a methodology. Great stuff again!!
Thanks my friend. I could relate so much to your opinions and experiences. I dated a girl recently for a couple of weeks until I realized I wouldn’t be able to support her fantasy of being a new age healer. I don’t know how to feel about it now as I did like her but in the end I did suggest that the new age beliefs she had were so narcissistic. She couldn’t believe it and was so offended at the suggestion. 😢❤
@@mikeleza you made a wise move there getting away from her while you could… most people do not have ears that wish to hear any suggestions that run contrary to their own ideas about how great they are… this is why I embrace the path of following Christ, a humble path that teaches to identify as a sinner saved by God’s grace and not much of anything more special than that… the humility implicit in believing one’s self to be a sinner helps keep one away from a lot of suffering and hard lessons that are inherent to the more narcissistic paths.
Love hearing videos like this confirming truth. I was with a physically very beautiful woman last year that ended painfully because these exact views was her belief system. I believe and Jesus and she did not so that ultimately made us grow apart. Times I pray that he reveals his self to her one day
I know all about painful endings with beautiful women. There are a lot of (very beautiful) women out there who are deceived by false new age beliefs. Making matters worse is they are rebellious and haughty believing they have everything figured out. So there’s no influencing them… the best we can do is steer clear of all the problems and toxicity that inevitably arise and not be there for them to offload all blame onto as they’re not willing to be accountable for the consequences of their own false beliefs.
@@ChirripoCory God bless you for doing the Lords work. The covert spiritual narcissist almost defeated me and made me feel suicidal on some days… But instead brought me closer to Jesus because he is the only one who would understand because none of my family or associates can’t comprehend what I went through so it was tough and still is.. I’m continuing to strengthen my walk with Christ and disappoint those dark forces that tried to steal me from my purpose.. Stay blessed
I don’t doubt your experiences, but personally I experienced a lot of narcissistic abuse in various contexts of the Christian church, and since then have experienced a lot of healing from said abuse in contexts that would be considered new age. Narcissism is a universal condition that respects no external boundaries, and when it’s a character trait of someone highly intelligent and darkly empathetic, it’s easy to hide in any church. Peace on your journey 🕊
@@freakofnurture40 yea I’m right there with you… since recording this video (well over a year ago) I’ve had enough of my own experiences of the falsehoods in the church that I walked away from organized religion (at least for now). Following Christ truly is a narrow path.
Christianity is a lot like how you described the new age environment. It’s full of narcissists, plenty of overt ones and a lot more of the covert ones. It just takes a while to see when you’re new to it. Take care!
Welcome to mainstream spirituality under capitalism. Everyone’s opinion is good and should only be good. It’s a brave new world with no limits. Everyone loves everyone which is exactly what humans didn’t evolve for.
"Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?" John 10:34 KJB Not only does christianity teach that people are gods, but it also teaches that they aren't. It's a mess of contradictions, which causes plenty cognitive dissonance. It's a mistake to think that one religion or ideology is exempt from narcissism, because narcissists find ways to use anything to enable themselves, including christianity. It's firstly a human problem - not an ideology-problem. Do you really think narcissists can't fake christian humility etc. and get supply off alternate peddling of shame, guilt and hellfire on one hand, and love, forgiveness and salvation etc. with the other, in unending cycles? Seriously, I can see so many ways that narcissism -and codependency-dynamics can play out within the framework of christianity. Question everything.
In the spirit of “question everything”, here’s an excellent video breaking down what Jesus meant in context in John 10:34 when he quoted that verse in Psalms. It’s not what the new ager would hope it means… tl;dw: the “ye are gods” is in reference to judges appointed by God, not all of humanity. ruclips.net/video/sUH_E3KD52A/видео.html I agree with you that narcissism can manifest within Christianity. In no way am I implying any religion or ideology is exempt from narcissism. Some ideologies may be more attractive to the narcissistic personality than others. However, indeed narcissism does appear in Christianity, of course. In particular due to the narcissistic tendency to keep up appearances and make sure to be at the right place at the right time in order to manage how others view them.
Wow my ex was into new age big time it was one of the reasons we split BUT i always told her that all our friends don't know her outside our bedroom and they don't know how manipulative she is and narcissistic she is.
In the New Age Scene the highest value is positivity ( at all costs) and "love". But there is a lack of guidelines. Only a few " universal" laws when the universe is Wishfullfiller for every dream they have. These dreams are mostly "becoming rich" ( in a financial way) and happy ( according to their own conditions). And of cause they want to be happy ever after. It seems that there is no more depth to it than this. Many of them have a very worldy and financial ( business ) understanding of beeing "sucsessfull" in life. Many of them take the wish "becoming a god" very serious. There are very "high level" healers that will not accept mon- believers. Means: Someone who doubts their abilities. And New Age is a massive business that makes billions. When you compare this to Jesus Example of beeing a man of god and a healer it is ridiculous. He never boasted about his abilities and he gave all credit for that to god and to himself. And what is the goal of " ascension" ? Simply beeing Human and to follow the 10 commandments is keeping you busy all day long.... so many of the New Agers are " higher class" financially. When they " broke down and lost everything" they still manage to travel the world to find a wise guru somewhere. When a normal human beeing is in trouble.... poor man will beg for a coke and a breakfast while haunted by other problems than Yoga constellations.
Afraid of truth thats true! Sad. All this toxic feminine sexuality is awful. PS: NOT ALL yoga teachers are the same. I teach about God, humility, detachment from lust, gluttony, etc... thanks for the video❤😊
What drives me bonkers is so many say they are enlightened. Really? REALLY? Cause if that's true, why does everyone sound the same, use the same words, reference the same things, seem to read the same books? If everyone's experience is different, its amazing how they all talk the same and have the same experiences! I can think of maybe 5 spiritual folks who actually USE THEIR OWN WORDS without referencing "not this, not this" (which is out of Adi Shankara) or "Who Am I" (which is from Ramana Maharshi). And, their own words show they actually might have something going on, whereas everyone literally spouts so much of the same thing as though if they say enough words that makes them enlightened. While others are sooo argumentative cause they have to prove how they are something special and you're just a pee-on to not get that. Or, they spout jibberish. Recently I saw folks say we are all Buddha, while another declared herself to be Mother Mary who is actually Krishna ... even though Krishna is Jesus, so Jesus is his own mother and currently walking the earth ... I guess as Buddha? Okay, prove it. Or, someone else said they can vibrate their DNA, and feel that they've brought it to a higher level. Yet, they still have to go to the doctor cause they can't feel any other part of their body. So you can't figure out what's wrong with your stomach, but you can feel your DNA changing. Okay, sure. Show me the doctor's tests of your DNA before and after.
I used to be in new age and native american spirituality, but then i realized it wasnt helping my life one bit. i went back to being a christian and was baptized. first time i ever heard "the secret" i was appalled by what i heard. my husband who claimed to be a christian and had been baptized as an adult was listening to it and defending it. i couldnt figure out why he was so upset that i told him it was proven as a cult, he was supposed to be a christian after all. turns out he is a narcissist himself and he can use both the secret and christianity for his narcissism.
Dang. Mind blowing comment. Yea the mixture of Biblical Christianity and witchcraft/occultism is gnarly… I’ve seen a bit of it myself… I believe God has a target on such people to teach them who is Lord. Hope you are spared from any collateral damage that might befall your husband.
We need discernment of the Holy Spirit. They don't want us to think, it's a lie told by the enemy. To "just be present in the moment" is a way for the devil to keep us in bondage. To not question things and comply. Lean on the true God Jesus Christ ⚔️❤️🔥❤️🔥
8:16 What surprised me too about New Age is the steel teachings from Christianity and twist them into counterfeit teachings. For example, the 5D new earth is the Rapture from the Book of Revelations. So by believing you're creating a new earth you're actually going to hell unless you wake up from the deception, unfortunately
As a person who used to delve into the “New Age” stuff as well,your observations resonate true. Have you read Christopher Laschs book “The Culture of Narcissism “ by chance? It is more of a social-political analysis of growing narcissistic trends of the time(the book is from the early late 80s /90s I believe) in the culture at large. It seems to me that the new age movement is the perfect secular religion for this expanding narcissistic culture of consumption and self aggrandizement.
You switched one cult to another, sorry to say Christianity is even worse with Narcissistic people and spiritual abuse. I spent 10 yrs of my life as a born again Christian and it devastated my life. I wish you the best of luck on your journey, I think we need to stop giving our power away to external belief systems and maybe have faith in ourselves and trust ourselves to know right from wrong and do better. Keep your eyes open in church there are many who are ready to take advantage .
Do not throw the baby out with the bath water. I have been a born again believer for 23 yrs. Been church hurt like most people. However as a mature believer i do not believe in any denomination or the church building. It is about relationship not religion. I prayed to find guenuine believers and Jesus has put on my path like minded believers in a home fellowship like the first disciples. We are growing and serving each other in doing kingdom work
You are just describing one of my ex friend just the way he is its amazing, he refuse to confess and embrasse Jesus because he thinks hes the supreme being , crazy
New age spirituality is like the new version of the fake promise Satan told of the Apple that Adam and Eve ate in the Garden of Eden. Saying that we could become like god and define our own ways. New age Spirituality is the same, saying that we could become like god and be one with god because god is us. Remember that Satan was the biggest narcissist.
Satan is hidden as an angel of light ....... Just as light is only found through the darkness but is not seen until reached. The duality of it huh.... 😮
Some claim to be Muslims or Christian’s but still follow angel numbers aura ideas and they love to label themselves this and believe there chosen ones 💀 so there still have a very arrogant mindset
Brother, I implore you to look in to the Eastern Orthodox Faith. It is the one Holy and Apostolic Church that Christ founded through the Apostles. Many people who have been involved in the New Age have found their way to the Orthodox Faith.
Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your law, ‘I said “Ye are gods”’? (John 10:34) “I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the Most High.” (Psalm 82:6)
I must say this tho..... From my experience all seen and unseen is God, including us as the eyes to God's graceful and divine creation. I have a saying "ripping out the page and running with it". This is when people attempt to skip steps and have a God complex. Your so correct about people judging others. We all have different paths in this wheel at this moment. Ego and persona , to me, is each our own anti christ that must be individually understood and implemented properly in our lives. 99% are living under an unconscious pretense they have built by following others. God bless you as your one of the truest people I've heard on here. Keep it up!
With respect, I have known of knowledable gurus and spiritual people who aren't vain, just educated. Then, there are malignant narcassist who pretend to believe in God. The second one I mentioned is what I had hoped "spiritual narcassism" was about but after going through a few videos I think there is just jealousy here and it is rude to victims of actual narcassism. People can be spiritually whatever they believe in and sometimes they can tell if your energy is off. It is the ones with no moral compass and no spirituality that are more of a concern. Barking at me with religious arrogance yet not true believers. For instance, if I were to say, "I am God!" right now, how many would I offend here? Hopefully no one but woupd I be labeled a narcassist for it? Study up and maybe label your concerns better. I am on a but of a crusade at the moment and colorful people with side quests do not concern me. : )
Worshipping the creation is also being obsessed with astrology and seeing your entire identity in it. Aka I do this because I am an XYZ and it's mercury retrograde and the ascension is happening...lmao exhausting. My identity is in JESUS.
"“Is it not written in your law that I have said ‘You are gods'”?- Jesus Christ, John 10:34". This is what the corrupt faux-Christian churches don't want you to ever know.
@@SinguSoon this is a favorite verse that people love to cherry-pick (while otherwise ignoring all the rest of the gospel). The verse he’s quoting is in psalms which is referring to humans as lowercase g ‘gods’ due to the authority God has given to man for overseeing government institutions. Jesus brings up this verse in defense of himself as the Pharisees are seeking to stone him for saying he’s the son of God. The teaching is not that “we are God” but rather that God has given us a certain amount of authority as humans which makes us “like gods” (lowercase g). New agers love using this verse though to validate their own ego and worldview without seeking any deeper understanding through context. But you’re right, you won’t hear much in churches about reminding people of their own God-given authority, an authority which includes the full freedom and sovereignty to just get up and walk out of the Babylonian religious system.
@@ChirripoCory You call it cherry picking, but we are told we are sons of god, and to be a son god, is to be a god, a mind-cell of the whole that is God. We are also taught the Kingdom of Heaven is within, not outside of ourselves. Christ is found within. The churches and New Age will hint at it, but not overtly teach this, but it's there, in all religions. As to the ego, we are called to shed the false self, not the actual self, which 'is' god'. Have you ever studied the esoteric teachings of Hermetica, or the Vedic teachings, or maybe just accept what Jesus said to the Pharisees as something straightforward? We aren't 'given' authority by some external deity, we have it because we are eternal soul-spirits who created this reality before incarnation, and all incarnations. If you've ever seen Michelangelo's painting of Adam, he paints God as being at the center of the brain. We just to need to reconnect to ourselves through abstaining from all temptations of this world, purify our bodies, and go within to our Higher Selves to 'turn the lights' on. This is the actual meaning of the star at the top of the Christmas Tree, btw, with the tree being the human body. These clues and teachings are what we gave ourselves to remember and awaken to who we are, and to return from whence we came, outside of this Maya/Matrix/Earth/Hell.
It's become so vain and strange if your going around calling everyone a karmic and your the chosen one that's a doorway for what I call a God complex and actually the opposite of awake .
In Christianity we have a lot of this people, also pastors. But in essence, witchcraft, included new age, is very more adaptable to egocentric purposes.
I'm not aboutthe New Age Movement, but it is rare anyone ever says people are god. They tote people have a direct connection to god within them, but the old age churches would have us believe we need to go through them. It's true a narcizit can thrive in a religous setting if they position themselves that way.
New age nonsense and Christianity are exactly the same in the sense that there's still a 'you' trying to make it into heaven. The difference is that the new agers try to accomplish it here and now, while Christians believe you only get the cookies after you physically die. Which is smart of course, because the level of uncertainty that brings makes you a better believer :)
It just about the mix of all God. Borrowing god, devine power into you hand and guide you form success,wealth,money, abundance and happinesses. You will be happy unless everything is OK? Why can't you be happy NOW, Even though you everything is not OK, but you can still be happy?Can the homeless be happy? Can the poor be happy?
Narcissism comes from self hate actually and a need to feel better so for the male/female thing guys probably hide it better or show it differently, ive definitely seen equal rates lol i think the goddess thing is just from surpression and Narcissism is putting people down so idk i dont get how people being loving to eachother is Narcissism (they can still be Narcissistic but thats not Narcissism) its also about connection from surpression. But males also have surpression of themselves they just havent gotten to the empowerment part yet they still surpress self love and feelings. I loved this video tho so true just wanted to comment
I think many of us fall prey to the “new age” because of our dislike in organized religion.
But God is not a religion
because 99% ppl are unritical NPCs cannot hear others opinions, even cannot explain why they are holding some opinion you are just sexist ^^ literal bots that it is derealizing how stupid humanity is honestly!!!
That god from the bible is pure religion - evil and mean.
"Church hurt" - gotta get over it or look past it (at God, Jesus Christ). All institutions on planet Earth are flawed.
People throw the baby out with the bath water. They die(spiritually) for a lack of knowledge.
Thank you!!! I hate the toxic positivity stuff. I can't picture Jesus preaching "Think positive!". I'm so sick of it. It's a relief when people are real, and down to earth and just real.
❤️
Be not afraid.
Do Not Worry
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[e]?
Amen, brother. I am sooooooo sick of fake spiritual people trying to teach me things I've learned so long ago.
As a woman, I approve of this message. I noticed a lot of women aren't there to support other women. Love bombing is not support. They leave you high and dry, and there's always envy. I let go of all my friends. All my friends were female. I was thinking a long time (years) about how I don't have male friends to have a male perspective on life. I wasn't allowed to have guy friends growing up (my toxic family is another can of worms), and it really crippled my social relationship outlook. I couldn't just make guy friends on the whim in my 20s, either. It's get harder the older you grow and, the people around me don't have any intention of being friends unless there's a motive (both men and women). I got sucked into spiritual bullshit too. I'm just glad I didn't buy into everything naively. In some way, it did help me find my way to God. I've always been the type to question things from my childhood. It's the main reason why I was subjected to so much abuse and neglect.
Their are many narcissists in Christianity as well. Demons love to be worshiped in church and have the ability to make the parishioners have euphoria during sessions. I agree with your opinion about the new age as I participated in that scene as well. After leaving different groups (not all new age groups) I witnessed them falling apart soon after I would leave. I helped several people leave these groups and wondering if I was an undercover agent and you may be as well. People are not in touch with their subconscious mind and is what is running your personal show/movie. Narcissists are in all groups and these narcissists are feeding off of other's energy and reflecting it back to you and why you may feel good in the beginning. Thank you for sharing!
Really insightful and wise comments. Thank you.
Yes, definitely a lot of narcissists in Christianity. I keep thinking "What is so hard for Christians to get their head around, about do unto others as you would have them do unto you?", and Jesus said He will separate the sheep from the goats based on how we treated HIM in the person of others. I don't see this in churches. It's all about getting a spiritual high, or maybe getting a position of some sort of authority to lord over others and be important. When people tell me they got the Holy Spirit, I know to run. People who truly have the Holy Spirit are quiet and kind, and don't use having the Spirit as an rationale for why you have to obey them. Jesus said "If you love me, you will keep my commandments" - like do unto other as you'd have them do unto you. This doesn't seem to be part of the contemporary church scene. It's all about getting a spiritual high, and more spiritual than thou, or getting on payroll, or in a position to boss others around. Argh. I've started going back to church, but I do feel anxiety.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I was duped by the new age movement while searching for help with some self improvement. I felt like I could not fully accept it and began searching for guidance amongst Christians and realized how self-centered the new age movement is. This is not of God. I also realized I was easily lured/duped because I don’t know God’s word as well as I thought I did. As soon as I started reading my Bible again and going back to church I could see what the enemy was trying to do. Satan is truly the ultimate deceiver using some truth laced with dangerous lies. I thank Jesus for protecting and guiding me while I went through this phase.
When I read about Dolores Cannon talking about non-player characters, and how they don’t have souls, and how evil doesn’t exist, just love and fear, I knew I was in trouble. Thank you for this video.
She was trying to speak from a spiritual standpoint where in the eyes of spirit, there’s only love and fear but for us humans good and evil does exist. It’s really complex & you have to know what she’s saying but it’s really an ungrounded point of view which is why I don’t subscribe to the whole “evil doesn’t exist” schtick.
@@Y.0o0 Dolores is demonically oppressed just like anyone who channels. These "spirits" that she channels information from are lying to her regularly mixing truth with lies to make it more impressionable to whomever is listening to her. That's how these spirits operate. It's demonic.
Neutrality =KI JESUS WAS NEUTRAL NO JUDGEMENTS
Hi, I'm from Poland, however my ex is involved in this New Age, astrology etc. and believe me: being narcissist and involved in New Age is a tragedy! I believe in God so I knew how to love him, but he thought only about himself and couldn't love other people.
@karolinakumiega8996: You do find lots of narc pastors and leaders in fundamental churches, cult and communities - religious people are not any better if it comes to narc behavior.
@@claudiaschneider5744yeah i've been in the spiritual community for years but started to notice the tactics and marketing going on and took a step back but i also noticed hundreds of people going from new age to christian but i wasn't really convinced as i believed they were falling in to another trap, it does seem the last few years has helped to develop discernment and awareness whilst observing both sides, it's like collectively something is happening.
When I had a bad attitude because of being tired of praying to God and nothing really happening, I thought I’d be better off in the new age. Because it lies and gave me a false sense of power.
Nothing has more power than God.
It made me love myself tooooo much.
I pained the Holy Spirit by behaving this way and He has been here along side of me helping me with my attitude and the choices that I make.
Jesus loves us sooo much, He really wants us to know that
God never promised you a rose garden or the fulfillment of your prayers, especially if prayers are asking for material benefits. We are here to meet challenges with courage instead of trying to pray all challenges away.
I'm back listening to this again. This is the BEST most incitful video on the subject that I've ever heard. The scenerio with the positive group walking off a cliff (telling eachother "stay positive"). I have a story that happened with a LOA/positivity friend that was very similar to that!
Totally agree! My ex narc has “awakened” and is “ascending”!spouts on about being a chosen one… when he lies/manipulated/cheats, is the most selfish unempathic person I know! Is the worst father… and yet he thinks he’s better than us mere mortals who are not awakened!! He even thinks he’s an expert on healthy relationships and his word is right!! It’s laughable and quite fascinating how he thinks of himself and others!
Oh gosh. The “chosen one” movement
A lot of these so-called “chosen ones” are really narcs in disguise.
Great video man!! The people who are in this strange fake-positivity movement are really going to be hit hard by the 7-year tribulation. Hopefully many of them will come to The Lord Jesus before it is too late!!! Thanks for creating this video, I thought it was very insightful!! Keep up the great work, Praise The Lord!
So proud of you, brother! What a great gift for us that Jesus welcomes us with arms wide open. Loving your videos.
Thank you for explaining what I have suspected for a while now - The truth needs to be shared and amen to you for your contribution.
I just stumbled upon your video. Thank you for sharing this information. So many people need to hear this that are stuck in the new age movement. My prayer is that they find you, and God speaks through your videos. Many thanks!❤
so true. I'm a woman of 43 years, the Netherlands. And i see women are more busy with themself and how they look for the outside world. Instead of looking inside and find joy there. I'm now training for a trail here, working hard and not even busy with how other people look at me. But instead just living my life and helping people when it needed. New age is just a mask. Just live you're life, feed your kids, be nice and responsible, that's real life spirituality.
@@aggiesart6 Amen! That’s a religion I can get on board with right there. Good luck with your training!
Ohh emm gee I can’t thank you enough!!! Thank you Thank you so so much for explaining this so well. My bestie just got baptized in April and gave his life to Jesus well I could tell he was making up excuses not to go to church and pulling away l, well he finally admitted to me yesterday that he has been reading on New Age for the past 2 months and I was like NO NO NO NO! I asked why are you still searching he said he wasn’t he was just interested so I sent him this video ASAP he came over hugged me for a long time and had tears and said thanks for sending me this video. I learned so much more in a 20 minute video than I did in 2 months about New Age and how it’s not good. I prayed so hard for him as I sent the video and before he came over. So Tbanks again so much if I wasn’t the one able to change his mind about the real God and Jesus you sure did and I will forever be grateful to you. May God continue to bless you and your family 🙏 ❤ 🤲
@@sabrinalopez9647 wow thanks for sharing! Glad he was able to be ministered to in a good way! 💓
“Spiritual gas lighting” so good. 🙏🏼
The narc was teaching me things from the Bible that I did not know. He knew a lot about the book of Enoch. He also deceived me with the whole positive manifestation. It was until his mask fell and started to devalue me for not having a millionaire mindset and not working to reach such goals. I told him God will give me whatever I need. He became so angry! He's literally a sheep in wolfs clothing because he has no fruits of the holy spirit only pretend to have it to get whatever he wants. They really have a retrobate mind and it is sad.
Its crazy how the name of God triggers them so deeply.
When speaking about God masks fall off
He really believes he is his own God. If that were the case we would all be damned to hell for our sins.
As someone who was in the new age for 5-6 years i can say that i never could find the name of what i was following and i was in a constant state of euphoric confusion because of the teachings. I attracted many narcissistic friendships where i was getting constantly betrayed and attracted a narcissistic women who destroyed me. I recently turned towards Christianity and everything about new age has been revealed to me in that span of time now im 100% certain that i attracted these people and circumstances and situations due to the teachings and beliefs of the new age religion. Anyone reading this please tell anyone you know who is in new age to get out as someone who can verify that what i gained was not worth what i lost in the process at all and itll leave you feeling empty regardless leave, youll only find that wholeness and peace through jesus.
So powerful: when u worship creation, you can end up worshiping yourself and others.
Such a good video brother. Ive been trying to explain this for so long and you summed it up brilliantly. I was surrounded by this and could not fit in.I have not many friends now. This is why I have found my faith again in Jesus. I have subscribed and hope to hear more from you in the future. Thank you for putting this out there. God bless
Praise God He pulled you out of the new age muck. He saved me out of it some years ago, too. 🙌🏼
Great info in this video- thanks you for sharing.
Interesting experience and viewpoint. I see parts of the world getting worse and worse, too, all the while I genuinely feel better, more at peace and more blissful week after week. I agree with your view about many people misusing new age spirituality for their own gains, and yet there are others who are truly living examples of what a human being can be in terms of manifesting the divine on earth. I guess it all depends on what each of us has chosen to learn in this lifetime. Thanks for sharing your perspective!
You are so right! My positive thinking of the New Age believes brought me into depression. I was ignoring "red flags" with people. I think that I have to trust that everything will be ok once I think positively. I was ignoring red flags hoping that "positive thinking only" would bring positive results. I was used by a man; hoping I met a true love "twin flame". A new age destroyed my life. I am in the depression stage now
With all the people involved in new age spirituality and if new age spirituality is what it claims to be the world should be evolving into peace rather than wars and all the other nefarious things coming in the forefront wouldn't have such control. New age spiritualism is a form of anti-christ capturing people who do not have a relationship with Yahuah the most high God. Fortunately, some people like you have come to learn its deception and share with others. When I came to this understanding I returned to Yah, quit yoga, and made other changes in my life. Yes, the most high God, creator of all things, is to be honored rather than the creation.
I was a born again Christian for over 20 years and experimented with some of new age for 10 years. I am agnostic when it comes to anything that can not be proven with my own eyes and experience. It feels great to be free from both Christianity and new age spirituality.
This is a really great video. I have been trying to figure out a way to do my new age testimony so definitely respect how you are articulated everything.
16:26 thank you for saying this! This is exactly what I've been honing in on and trying to get my community to see but no one wants to hear it
Let those with ears hear! 🙏🏼
Another Great Food-for-Thought Video Cory!
It is important to talk about these Topics, as not everything is at it seems and some People dont even get these Ideas of "Oh, something does not fit".
Sometimes the Appearance of exactly these Things, randomly appearing on someones Recommandation List or a mentioning of this topic, can change many lives. It is our duty to educate the those who still walk the Path of the Fool as Fate will direct these Videos towards those who are deserving or need it.
Im glad you are talking about this Topic and your Experience about it. How you thrived and climbed out of that Phase, as your it gives your Arguments more Weight and Understanding.
Narcissism is a huge Problem everywhere, as mentioned before under another Video.
And sometimes Movements overlap with each other, an example: As you mentioned: More Women get a more inflated Ego due to New Age Sprituality spouting that everybody is a God/Goddess.
Modern Feminism and Hook-Up-Culture speak of the same principle: You are Women = You are a goddess = You deserve more than the common Man or Men.
Yet, also Social Media is one of the deep Roots and a steadfast Creator and Supporter of this modern Narcissistic "Tradition". So, looking at this from a big picture perspective, all fits perfectly together, Movements, Trends or Programs all cooperate with each other and act as a Catalyst for Narcissists or growing to be Narcissits.
Its quite interesting, but yes also quite terrifying how Narcissism is blooming in these Modern Times, making the Daily Life and Social Interactions harder than it should be.
Personally, its quite sickening to see and experience. Dealing with Narcissism can teach us alot how things are running in these Modern Times and how their Minds work, although I fully understand that it can be hard and emotional and can overwhelm anybody, but exactly these Enemies and Harsh times evolve us and make us in who we are meant to be.
Keep fighting and keep up the good word.
Thanks so much for the thoughtful and encouraging comment. There are a lot of nourishing words here to chew on. I really appreciate your support and insights. May God bless you. 🙏🏼
@@ChirripoCory Youre full-heartedly Welcome, Cory! Im glad my Words were valuable to you.
Thank you for doing the work that needs to be done. May your Path be a pleasant Journey.
Thank you for this video! Also the "Fake it till you make it" advice is so toxic...
21:39 it's so sad to see friends in the new age who have literally experienced their parent dying or they have literally been suffering from cancer and they just say "it's all good. I'm good. I'm not gonna be negative"
like they won't even allow themselves to accept the reality and have the full spectrum of the human emotional experience. I agree people shouldn't dwell on hardship but to just completely deny yourself to feel grief and just to say that you're good when you're suffering or your parent dies, definitely toxic positivity and you can't tell them that it's OK to be sad because then they tell you that you're negative. It's so warped.
Maybe this explains why new agers refuse to expose darkness/psychopathy or narcissism...
I totally agree with the points you made in this video. What I have learned after coming out of the New Age is that it is truly just rebranded satanism. All of the practices and things taught are the same things the church of Satan teaches. Satan is the most prideful and narcissistic being there is, so it makes sense that this movement is centered around self and discovering your own “divinity.” I agree with your point about women and the whole “goddess” thing too. I think this is pushed so much because it is the inverse of God’s creation. It makes sense that new age women are exalting themselves while new age men are emasculating themselves because that is exactly the opposite of what God wants. I think the new age ends up turning everyone into a narcissist unless you get out of it, although I think there are people who are aware of that and prey on impressionable people. All the friends I ever had as well as just the culture today, were narcissistic; I became that way too. Our world preaches self love and self care constantly, the new age is infiltrating the mainstream now too. It’s not as covert as it used to be. The Age of Aquarius actually comes from Alister Crowley. He was a satanist and the face behind the whole hippie revolution of the 60s, the psychedelic drug industry, and many influential rockstars’ idol like the Beatles and Led Zeppelin. He prophesied about this coming age and I think he was actually right. The Bible describes the new Heaven and the new earth that God will create when Jesus comes again in Revelation. Alister Crowley and the new age deceive people into believing that they will create it, when in reality God will. The new age is just gathering people together for the one world religion that will come in the end times, like you said just a bunch of sheep heading towards the edge of a cliff. I didn’t realize any of that stuff until I got out of it though, I didn’t even know the term new age until I was saved. It’s truly a cult. It was a narcissistic guy along with a lot of childhood trauma that sucked me into it, luckily Jesus saved me out of it though before it was too late. Praise God for you speaking up about these things!
Wow Haley, what an incredible comment. Thanks for your conviction. I agree with what you said about how the new age makes everyone in it narcissistic. I could definitely see how it was doing that to me and/or it was my own narcissistic tendencies that were attracted to it in the first place. You did a great job here illuminating how anti-God/Christ a lot of what’s going on in the new earth is. Thanks for your great comment and testimony. I’m glad we got out of it! Let’s pray more are to follow. God bless you. 🙏🏼
I got suckered into that narcissistic garbage aswell down the rabbit hole of psychadelics..
Ayahuasca iboga 5 meo dmt are dangerous breeding grounds for narcissists..
Its funny how you get told your the problem and when you mistakenly own up to the gas lighting nothing really changes and no healing is taking place .. your only being further traumatized.. its a sick twisted mind frame ..
When i was in ayahuasca the demons would mock me for owning up to anything .. if you didnt own up to something they would mock you .. if you did own up to something they would mock you ..
The shamans are a truly sick bunch of people and the most decieved
Aleister Crowley is second from the top left on the St. Pepper's artwork from the album. I do love that record though!
Every corruption is a reflection of a truth.
The idea is that you are God & it’s everyone making the new aeon come to fruition through the act of will… that’s how it’s thriving & will continue to thrive in the coming future. It’s time to wake up & come to the same conclusion that the Bible teaches you. People just aren’t connecting the dots to see the real truth in all of this.
As a "new age spiritualist" myself, if the belief is not for you then that's okay. For me, it happens to coincide with my own life experiences. Ultimately we are all seeking learning and truth, and I think that people can do that through different means. Where I agree with christians is that there is only one true god, and wanting to build a relationship with that through whatever means speaks to you is A okay in my book. Yes there are narcissists who are attracted to new age spirituality (I can see how the belief that you are also god can appeal to a narcissist), but from what I see there are narcissists in every faith, not to mention that that in and of itself does not disprove the faith. But my main point is that you do you - I am here to hear differing opinions to grow my own understanding.
Yes. This is one of the truest videos I have heard.
We need unity, but unity in meaningful action. Believing only happy thoughts doesn’t feed hungry people. Feeding them does.
I am not bought into the Christian church, I am reform Jewish; however, I am extremely pro critical thinking.
AI and the new age is very willing to think for you, but when you examine it at all it crumbles.
The reason women gravitate to the idea of being a goddess is different though. For a long time the dominate religion has attempted to tell them not to speak in church, teach, etc. so of course they want to be empowered. Said church needs to acknowledge their role because cause and effect is also a very real thing.
This is one of your best vids - so well articulated
We out here bro in these YT streets. 🙏🏼
I was sucked into new age thinking from tarot. Admittedly I was lonely, had no purpose, and was struggling for meaning. The tarot readings kept saying that things would work out and that I was going to be rich, be safe, etc. I ended up homeless for seven months, hungry for four months, and eventually wound up moving back in with an abusive family member.
It preys on your instinct to believe. To want something better for yourself. I look back on some of the readings and realize how generic each one was. They would say one thing, and then the opposite, they would say another thing, and say not for everyone. One reading basically said just google what you want to find out and the answer you get is your spirit guides helping you. Definitely not a search algorithm that's been honed for decades, no it couldn't be that. /s
I feel like such an idiot for believing in that stuff. Now I'm stuck living with a narcissist that tries to tear me down every time I get a job or make progress in my life. I have no money, no family, and one friend that lives states away.
Ugh, it’s true. Especially the yoga teachers. Yoga was such a hurtful and terrible addiction. I’d think the communities would welcome me and be caring but none of them were so, I’d hop around and never found love or acceptance.
Especially the yoga teachers!!!
Parallels my journey greatly man, Glory to God!
Oh my gosh, thank you for sharing your stories my experience is similar! God bless❤
Honestly whether or not someone is spiritual or not, everyone has a level of narcissism in today's day in age. Spiritual and Religious groups tend to have the majority of them.
Far as I am concerned I gave up on the New Age scene after I realized people and all the concepts get blown out of proportion. I do think that some of it holds some ounce of truth in terms of self improvement but most of the people who end up preaching the ideas like Twin Flames, Toxic Positivity, and Age of Aquarius tends to exploit those who are unaware and the more I became stable after a serious mental health crisis I just began to see it for what it is.
That's speaking to that set of beliefs in particular.
I think narcissists are in every religion. I've watched plenty of crime documentaries with so called christian pastors or people of the church who manipulated their mistresses into killing their wives, using Bible quotes. I think there are also narcissists in the community - the self-righteous narcissists who believe they are morally superior to everybody and judge their actions.
But for the rest of the things - I think it's true that new age teachings spread a lot of bs. I've been dabbling in tarot readings and plenty of times I got angry because of the c*ap that was said with so much happiness and serenity. I don't believe in the power of crystals and positive thinking, in the ascension, transitions and whatever. Also - it is a lot of blaming, I would say, because they say "you'll not be able to attract what you want because you didn't work on yourself, you don't manifest the right way etc". According to them you will not get anything good in this life because you didn't heal enough your past traumas. So, you're kinda not enough and not deserving. 🙄 That can make you depressive because you feel like you always have to push a big boulder with no result.
I agree with you that narcissists are everywhere. They’re in the church as well for sure, as you note.
And I agree so much about how those stories of “you failed bc you’re not deserving” are embedded within new age and manifestation culture. It is very cliquey in this respect: you’re either a part of the in-crowd of folks who are under the false light deception, or you’re thinking and critical and truth-oriented and thus prone to causing trouble to the demands of groupthink ideology that insists on advancing certain new age narratives. This way of subliminally gaslighting people for their hardships by making them think it is always their own fault is also lacking of empathy in a way that is classic of narcissistic abuse. Following Christ has taught me a lot about how essential mercy is to the human experience. Imagine what a cold world it would be if everyone regarded anyone going through a difficult time as someone who just needs to “work on themselves”. It’s actually a completely disgusting ideology when you sit with it long enough.
My holy ex, the holy mother of our daughter, a true spiritual sound healer wouldn't approve of your message. Her family and spiritual friends wouldn't approve either.
Thank you for putting out this info ❤
Great comment about the created vs the Creator. This stuff reminds me of what I think I understand Gnosticism is--both large "G" Gnosticism (a specific religion from the times of early Christianity), and small "g" gnosticism, which is an adjective which implies esoteric (inner, revealed "only to you") knowledge as a methodology. Great stuff again!!
This is pure gold. Great video 👍
Great video. It always makes me chuckle when I see these people.
Thanks my friend. I could relate so much to your opinions and experiences. I dated a girl recently for a couple of weeks until I realized I wouldn’t be able to support her fantasy of being a new age healer. I don’t know how to feel about it now as I did like her but in the end I did suggest that the new age beliefs she had were so narcissistic. She couldn’t believe it and was so offended at the suggestion. 😢❤
@@mikeleza you made a wise move there getting away from her while you could… most people do not have ears that wish to hear any suggestions that run contrary to their own ideas about how great they are… this is why I embrace the path of following Christ, a humble path that teaches to identify as a sinner saved by God’s grace and not much of anything more special than that… the humility implicit in believing one’s self to be a sinner helps keep one away from a lot of suffering and hard lessons that are inherent to the more narcissistic paths.
Love hearing videos like this confirming truth. I was with a physically very beautiful woman last year that ended painfully because these exact views was her belief system. I believe and Jesus and she did not so that ultimately made us grow apart. Times I pray that he reveals his self to her one day
I know all about painful endings with beautiful women. There are a lot of (very beautiful) women out there who are deceived by false new age beliefs. Making matters worse is they are rebellious and haughty believing they have everything figured out. So there’s no influencing them… the best we can do is steer clear of all the problems and toxicity that inevitably arise and not be there for them to offload all blame onto as they’re not willing to be accountable for the consequences of their own false beliefs.
@@ChirripoCory God bless you for doing the Lords work. The covert spiritual narcissist almost defeated me and made me feel suicidal on some days… But instead brought me closer to Jesus because he is the only one who would understand because none of my family or associates can’t comprehend what I went through so it was tough and still is.. I’m continuing to strengthen my walk with Christ and disappoint those dark forces that tried to steal me from my purpose.. Stay blessed
I don’t doubt your experiences, but personally I experienced a lot of narcissistic abuse in various contexts of the Christian church, and since then have experienced a lot of healing from said abuse in contexts that would be considered new age.
Narcissism is a universal condition that respects no external boundaries, and when it’s a character trait of someone highly intelligent and darkly empathetic, it’s easy to hide in any church. Peace on your journey 🕊
@@freakofnurture40 yea I’m right there with you… since recording this video (well over a year ago) I’ve had enough of my own experiences of the falsehoods in the church that I walked away from organized religion (at least for now). Following Christ truly is a narrow path.
Very true, the new age believe is a lie, but so is also Christianity
Christ was and is right, but Christianity isn't
💯💯
Christianity is a lot like how you described the new age environment. It’s full of narcissists, plenty of overt ones and a lot more of the covert ones. It just takes a while to see when you’re new to it. Take care!
Yea regrettably you probably have a point here. 🙈
God bless you brother🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️
Welcome to mainstream spirituality under capitalism. Everyone’s opinion is good and should only be good. It’s a brave new world with no limits. Everyone loves everyone which is exactly what humans didn’t evolve for.
17:17 brilliant analogy👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
"Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?" John 10:34 KJB
Not only does christianity teach that people are gods, but it also teaches that they aren't. It's a mess of contradictions, which causes plenty cognitive dissonance.
It's a mistake to think that one religion or ideology is exempt from narcissism, because narcissists find ways to use anything to enable themselves, including christianity. It's firstly a human problem - not an ideology-problem.
Do you really think narcissists can't fake christian humility etc. and get supply off alternate peddling of shame, guilt and hellfire on one hand, and love, forgiveness and salvation etc. with the other, in unending cycles? Seriously, I can see so many ways that narcissism -and codependency-dynamics can play out within the framework of christianity.
Question everything.
In the spirit of “question everything”, here’s an excellent video breaking down what Jesus meant in context in John 10:34 when he quoted that verse in Psalms. It’s not what the new ager would hope it means… tl;dw: the “ye are gods” is in reference to judges appointed by God, not all of humanity. ruclips.net/video/sUH_E3KD52A/видео.html
I agree with you that narcissism can manifest within Christianity. In no way am I implying any religion or ideology is exempt from narcissism. Some ideologies may be more attractive to the narcissistic personality than others. However, indeed narcissism does appear in Christianity, of course. In particular due to the narcissistic tendency to keep up appearances and make sure to be at the right place at the right time in order to manage how others view them.
Wow my ex was into new age big time it was one of the reasons we split BUT i always told her that all our friends don't know her outside our bedroom and they don't know how manipulative she is and narcissistic she is.
Thanks a lot for these precious thoughts! 🌻
It’s my biggest pet peeve, the spiritual ego trip
In the New Age Scene the highest value is positivity ( at all costs) and "love". But there is a lack of guidelines. Only a few " universal" laws when the universe is Wishfullfiller for every dream they have. These dreams are mostly "becoming rich" ( in a financial way) and happy ( according to their own conditions). And of cause they want to be happy ever after. It seems that there is no more depth to it than this. Many of them have a very worldy and financial ( business ) understanding of beeing "sucsessfull" in life. Many of them take the wish "becoming a god" very serious. There are very "high level" healers that will not accept mon- believers. Means: Someone who doubts their abilities. And New Age is a massive business that makes billions. When you compare this to Jesus Example of beeing a man of god and a healer it is ridiculous. He never boasted about his abilities and he gave all credit for that to god and to himself. And what is the goal of " ascension" ? Simply beeing Human and to follow the 10 commandments is keeping you busy all day long.... so many of the New Agers are " higher class" financially. When they " broke down and lost everything" they still manage to travel the world to find a wise guru somewhere. When a normal human beeing is in trouble.... poor man will beg for a coke and a breakfast while haunted by other problems than Yoga constellations.
Afraid of truth thats true! Sad. All this toxic feminine sexuality is awful. PS: NOT ALL yoga teachers are the same. I teach about God, humility, detachment from lust, gluttony, etc... thanks for the video❤😊
What drives me bonkers is so many say they are enlightened. Really? REALLY? Cause if that's true, why does everyone sound the same, use the same words, reference the same things, seem to read the same books? If everyone's experience is different, its amazing how they all talk the same and have the same experiences! I can think of maybe 5 spiritual folks who actually USE THEIR OWN WORDS without referencing "not this, not this" (which is out of Adi Shankara) or "Who Am I" (which is from Ramana Maharshi). And, their own words show they actually might have something going on, whereas everyone literally spouts so much of the same thing as though if they say enough words that makes them enlightened. While others are sooo argumentative cause they have to prove how they are something special and you're just a pee-on to not get that. Or, they spout jibberish. Recently I saw folks say we are all Buddha, while another declared herself to be Mother Mary who is actually Krishna ... even though Krishna is Jesus, so Jesus is his own mother and currently walking the earth ... I guess as Buddha? Okay, prove it. Or, someone else said they can vibrate their DNA, and feel that they've brought it to a higher level. Yet, they still have to go to the doctor cause they can't feel any other part of their body. So you can't figure out what's wrong with your stomach, but you can feel your DNA changing. Okay, sure. Show me the doctor's tests of your DNA before and after.
@@hinduismwithpremananddasbhagat haha amazing rant/comment. Thanks!
I used to be in new age and native american spirituality, but then i realized it wasnt helping my life one bit. i went back to being a christian and was baptized. first time i ever heard "the secret" i was appalled by what i heard. my husband who claimed to be a christian and had been baptized as an adult was listening to it and defending it. i couldnt figure out why he was so upset that i told him it was proven as a cult, he was supposed to be a christian after all. turns out he is a narcissist himself and he can use both the secret and christianity for his narcissism.
Dang. Mind blowing comment. Yea the mixture of Biblical Christianity and witchcraft/occultism is gnarly… I’ve seen a bit of it myself… I believe God has a target on such people to teach them who is Lord. Hope you are spared from any collateral damage that might befall your husband.
We need discernment of the Holy Spirit. They don't want us to think, it's a lie told by the enemy. To "just be present in the moment" is a way for the devil to keep us in bondage. To not question things and comply. Lean on the true God Jesus Christ ⚔️❤️🔥❤️🔥
Great video, brother! Truth.
8:16 What surprised me too about New Age is the steel teachings from Christianity and twist them into counterfeit teachings. For example, the 5D new earth is the Rapture from the Book of Revelations. So by believing you're creating a new earth you're actually going to hell unless you wake up from the deception, unfortunately
As a person who used to delve into the “New Age” stuff as well,your observations resonate true.
Have you read Christopher Laschs book “The Culture of Narcissism “ by chance? It is more of a social-political analysis of growing narcissistic trends of the time(the book is from the early late 80s /90s I believe) in the culture at large.
It seems to me that the new age movement is the perfect secular religion for this expanding narcissistic culture of consumption and self aggrandizement.
EYE -OPENING VIDEO. THANKS❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
DUDE. best new age video ever :D
Right on. Thanks Phoenix!
I gave up the tarot years ago after 20 years. Best decision ever. It was useless. I had 3 amazing readings out of 1000.
I have very similar way of thinking about this...
You switched one cult to another, sorry to say Christianity is even worse with Narcissistic people and spiritual abuse. I spent 10 yrs of my life as a born again Christian and it devastated my life. I wish you the best of luck on your journey, I think we need to stop giving our power away to external belief systems and maybe have faith in ourselves and trust ourselves to know right from wrong and do better. Keep your eyes open in church there are many who are ready to take advantage .
Do not throw the baby out with the bath water. I have been a born again believer for 23 yrs. Been church hurt like most people. However as a mature believer i do not believe in any denomination or the church building. It is about relationship not religion. I prayed to find guenuine believers and Jesus has put on my path like minded believers in a home fellowship like the first disciples. We are growing and serving each other in doing kingdom work
Oh no...I have a good vibes tee, but it's because I like the colour and the shape of it and it was only a couple bucks at a thrift store. 🤪
Still a narc. Lol jk.
You are just describing one of my ex friend just the way he is its amazing, he refuse to confess and embrasse Jesus because he thinks hes the supreme being , crazy
New age spirituality is like the new version of the fake promise Satan told of the Apple that Adam and Eve ate in the Garden of Eden. Saying that we could become like god and define our own ways.
New age Spirituality is the same, saying that we could become like god and be one with god because god is us.
Remember that Satan was the biggest narcissist.
Satan is hidden as an angel of light .......
Just as light is only found through the darkness but is not seen until reached.
The duality of it huh.... 😮
he disguises* as an angel of light.
Some claim to be Muslims or Christian’s but still follow angel numbers aura ideas and they love to label themselves this and believe there chosen ones 💀 so there still have a very arrogant mindset
Brother, I implore you to look in to the Eastern Orthodox Faith. It is the one Holy and Apostolic Church that Christ founded through the Apostles. Many people who have been involved in the New Age have found their way to the Orthodox Faith.
Yea I’m listening to a lot of videos from the Orthodox lineage. Father Spyridon is a favorite, his YT channel is great. Thanks for the rec!
Excellent share thank you so much
Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your law, ‘I said “Ye are gods”’? (John 10:34)
“I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the Most High.” (Psalm 82:6)
They say positive things but to me I've had experiences that turned very negative and condescending
Great video man!
Keep it up!!
I must say this tho.....
From my experience all seen and unseen is God, including us as the eyes to God's graceful and divine creation.
I have a saying "ripping out the page and running with it". This is when people attempt to skip steps and have a God complex.
Your so correct about people judging others. We all have different paths in this wheel at this moment. Ego and persona , to me, is each our own anti christ that must be individually understood and implemented properly in our lives. 99% are living under an unconscious pretense they have built by following others. God bless you as your one of the truest people I've heard on here. Keep it up!
With respect, I have known of knowledable gurus and spiritual people who aren't vain, just educated. Then, there are malignant narcassist who pretend to believe in God. The second one I mentioned is what I had hoped "spiritual narcassism" was about but after going through a few videos I think there is just jealousy here and it is rude to victims of actual narcassism. People can be spiritually whatever they believe in and sometimes they can tell if your energy is off. It is the ones with no moral compass and no spirituality that are more of a concern. Barking at me with religious arrogance yet not true believers. For instance, if I were to say, "I am God!" right now, how many would I offend here? Hopefully no one but woupd I be labeled a narcassist for it? Study up and maybe label your concerns better. I am on a but of a crusade at the moment and colorful people with side quests do not concern me. : )
I love this
Worshipping the creation is also being obsessed with astrology and seeing your entire identity in it. Aka I do this because I am an XYZ and it's mercury retrograde and the ascension is happening...lmao exhausting.
My identity is in JESUS.
@@AshtasticAcrobat very very well said… I know what you mean about how astrology can be exhausting…
"“Is it not written in your law that I have said ‘You are gods'”?- Jesus Christ, John 10:34". This is what the corrupt faux-Christian churches don't want you to ever know.
@@SinguSoon this is a favorite verse that people love to cherry-pick (while otherwise ignoring all the rest of the gospel). The verse he’s quoting is in psalms which is referring to humans as lowercase g ‘gods’ due to the authority God has given to man for overseeing government institutions. Jesus brings up this verse in defense of himself as the Pharisees are seeking to stone him for saying he’s the son of God. The teaching is not that “we are God” but rather that God has given us a certain amount of authority as humans which makes us “like gods” (lowercase g). New agers love using this verse though to validate their own ego and worldview without seeking any deeper understanding through context. But you’re right, you won’t hear much in churches about reminding people of their own God-given authority, an authority which includes the full freedom and sovereignty to just get up and walk out of the Babylonian religious system.
@@ChirripoCory You call it cherry picking, but we are told we are sons of god, and to be a son god, is to be a god, a mind-cell of the whole that is God. We are also taught the Kingdom of Heaven is within, not outside of ourselves. Christ is found within. The churches and New Age will hint at it, but not overtly teach this, but it's there, in all religions.
As to the ego, we are called to shed the false self, not the actual self, which 'is' god'. Have you ever studied the esoteric teachings of Hermetica, or the Vedic teachings, or maybe just accept what Jesus said to the Pharisees as something straightforward? We aren't 'given' authority by some external deity, we have it because we are eternal soul-spirits who created this reality before incarnation, and all incarnations.
If you've ever seen Michelangelo's painting of Adam, he paints God as being at the center of the brain. We just to need to reconnect to ourselves through abstaining from all temptations of this world, purify our bodies, and go within to our Higher Selves to 'turn the lights' on. This is the actual meaning of the star at the top of the Christmas Tree, btw, with the tree being the human body.
These clues and teachings are what we gave ourselves to remember and awaken to who we are, and to return from whence we came, outside of this Maya/Matrix/Earth/Hell.
It's become so vain and strange if your going around calling everyone a karmic and your the chosen one that's a doorway for what I call a God complex and actually the opposite of awake .
In Christianity we have a lot of this people, also pastors. But in essence, witchcraft, included new age, is very more adaptable to egocentric purposes.
I'm not aboutthe New Age Movement, but it is rare anyone ever says people are god. They tote people have a direct connection to god within them, but the old age churches would have us believe we need to go through them. It's true a narcizit can thrive in a religous setting if they position themselves that way.
New age is full of malarkey
excellent video
Bouncing from one cult to another
@@marcduchamp5512 which cult is it that I’ve bounced to?
Amen!!!
Very well explained
New age nonsense and Christianity are exactly the same in the sense that there's still a 'you' trying to make it into heaven. The difference is that the new agers try to accomplish it here and now, while Christians believe you only get the cookies after you physically die. Which is smart of course, because the level of uncertainty that brings makes you a better believer :)
Ha… interesting perspective.
Great video
It just about the mix of all God. Borrowing god, devine power into you hand and guide you form success,wealth,money, abundance and happinesses. You will be happy unless everything is OK? Why can't you be happy NOW, Even though you everything is not OK, but you can still be happy?Can the homeless be happy? Can the poor be happy?
In their mind what you did does not exist and in fact is a righteous response to what you did
Narcissism comes from self hate actually and a need to feel better so for the male/female thing guys probably hide it better or show it differently, ive definitely seen equal rates lol i think the goddess thing is just from surpression and Narcissism is putting people down so idk i dont get how people being loving to eachother is Narcissism (they can still be Narcissistic but thats not Narcissism) its also about connection from surpression. But males also have surpression of themselves they just havent gotten to the empowerment part yet they still surpress self love and feelings. I loved this video tho so true just wanted to comment
You can always lie and say you love yourself and Narcissists do that a lot
