Extractions: In 1964, a "new" religion made its appearance Eckankar, The Ancient Science of Soul Travel (Eck). Eck was founded by Paul Twitchell, a journalist, eccentric occult dabbler, and self-proclaimed soldier of fortune. In 1964 and l965, he wrote articles and gave lectures on his peculiar philosophy of "Biolocation," or supposed out-of-body travels. He evolved the philosophy and practice of Eck out of this experience and from studying the teachings of Ruhani Satsung, Scientology , and several other religious and occult groups. Twitchell, who was born in Paducah, Kentucky sometime between 1908 and 1912, and died in 1971, asserted that Eck did not actually begin in 1964, but rather was a timeless and universal Truth which had been "revived" for public dissemination at that time. Eck's membership is estimated at approximately 50,000, but there are supposedly about 3 million "followers" throughout the world. It was originally centered in Las Vegas, Nevada, but after Twitchell's death and the coming to power of Darwin Gross, the group moved to Menlo Park, California. Its main headquarters are currently in Minneapolis, Minnesota, but Eck also has active works in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia, and Africa. Eck's authoritative books are An Introduction to Eckankar and Eckankar: The Key to Secret Worlds , both written by Twitchell. Eck also publishes a monthly publication

Extractions: The New Age: Change in Focus The "New Age" really began in the "Age of Aquarius" in the mid-1960s. It was a wonderful opening up of America. Worthwhile social movements gained momentum in many areas: seeking peace instead of war; the women's movement for personal freedom; civil rights for minorities; environmental protection; opening up government process to all the people; psychological self-analysis; and spiritual awakening. All of these movements have benefited America and its citizens. And many people have sincerely searched for and found a spiritual awakening. This aspect of true spiritual growth is continuing, and has great potential. However, over the past 30 years in the general culture, there has been a major shift in the focus of the movement, as a new generation has come along. The shift among some is away from the movement's initial fundamental principles founded in moral and spiritual enlightenment , and toward a "drive-through" mentality more interested in self-gratification, also called self-fulfillment. This modern trend has come to be known as the "New Age". We have all seen the statements of people who claim to be seeking spiritual awakening, and who state boldly that they believe God's purpose is for them to prosper and be happy. In other words

http://www.peterussell.com/PassingThoughts/NewAgeRelig.html

Extractions: New Age Religion Is the New Age a religion? Like the more classical religions there would seem to be a number of beliefs associated with 'new age thinking' reincarnation, homeopathy, astrology, tarot, palmistry, crystals, angelic beings, chakras, dowsing, ley lines, radionics, precognition, channeling, reflexology, spiritual healing, Atlantis, levitation, rebirthing. The list could go on and on. This is the creed of the New Age. You do not have to believe in all of them; but you should, if you are to be an accepted member of this growing band, not profess disbelief in too many of them. Holding on to a belief is, however, the antithesis of spiritual development. Through our beliefs we fix onto a particular perspective of reality. We filter out those facets of reality that disagree with our views of how things are, and in doing so we miss the whole. Yet has not spiritual growth always been about an awareness of the whole an expansion of consciousness? Inner awakening involves stepping back from beliefs and assumptions. It is about seeing reality as it is; not through the lens of preconceived ideas. Yet too often our need for security leads us to turn our paths of liberation into yet another belief. We turn our spiritual discoveries into doctrines and dogmas. We create another church. Time and again spiritual teachers have sought to help us break free from our prejudices and assumptions break free our belief that it is through material salvation that we will find the inner peace we seek break free from the boundaries of our ego.

Gimme That New Age Religion
Gimme that new age religion. Sir Jim R Wallaby (published in the Skeptic14/2, 1994) (Sir Jim R Wallaby is President of Pseudonyms Anonymous).
http://www.skeptics.com.au/journal/jrw-newage.htm

Extractions: (Sir Jim R Wallaby is President of Pseudonyms Anonymous) Sometimes world changing concepts crop up in the most unexpected places. It was a letter to the editor of that fine publication New Scientist (April 22, 1994) that caused me to question all my long held prejudices about how the world actually operates. Unusually (even perhaps uniquely) for that publication, the letter was anonymous and contained this explanation "My apologies for remaining anonymous. I am a professional researcher with a string of letters after my name. My employers would not like this letter and jobs are hard to find these days. Anon" The letter itself addressed a previously published review of a book about the theories of Rupert Sheldrake. (Sheldrake is the British scientist, whose proposed theory of Formative Causation [or Causative Formation - Im never sure which is correct], suggests that a morphic field exists in conjunction with all living things, which allows, among other effects, that once a task has been successfully conducted once by one individual from a given population, it thereafter becomes easier for other members of that population to do the same task, even though they have never had contact with the original experimenter.) At least that is what I take it to mean, although the Wallabys have never been scientific in any way.

http://allanturner.com/sample06.html

Extractions: November 15, 1998 by: Allan Turner The New Age movement is committed to the inward journey. It is a movement that asserts the deification of the "Self." The so-called enlightened goals of the New Age movement are grounded in Satan's Edenic lie to Eve, "then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil" (Genesis 3:5). Although the self-love, self-confidence, self-potential, self-awareness, self-acceptance, self-image, self-esteem, self-fulfillment, self-development, self-assertion, self- actualization, and other present-day manifestations of prideful arrogance would have been severely condemned in most pulpits thirty years ago, today these words now readily roll off the tongues of modern-day preachers. Robert Schuller, pastor of the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, California, is one of the leading proponents of the self-love gospel. His Sunday morning T.V. service, "Hour of Power," has become the nation's most widely watched religious program. In his new book

Extractions: NEW AGE SPIRITUALITY a.k.a. Self-spirituality, New spirituality, Mind-body-spirit Click below to visit our sponsors. The New Age Movement is in a class by itself. Unlike most formal religions, it has no holy text, central organization, membership, formal clergy, geographic center, dogma, creed, etc. They often use mutually exclusive definitions for some of their terms. The New Age is in fact a free-flowing spiritual movement; a network of believers and practitioners who share somewhat similar beliefs and practices, which they add on to whichever formal religion that they follow. Their book publishers take the place of a central organization; seminars, conventions, books and informal groups replace of sermons and religious services. Quoting John Naisbitt: "In turbulent times, in times of great change, people head for the two extremes: fundamentalism and personal, spiritual experience...With no membership lists or even a coherent philosophy or dogma, it is difficult to define or measure the unorganized New Age movement. But in every major U.S. and European city, thousands who seek insight and personal growth cluster around a metaphysical bookstore, a spiritual teacher, or an education center." The New Age is definitely a heterogeneous movement of individuals; most graft some new age beliefs onto their regular religious affiliation. Recent surveys of US adults indicate that many Americans hold at least some new age beliefs:
