Art of Shadow Work

Part of new-age lip service is to sign off a conversation by saying love & light while being oblivious of the shadow. I must also have a dark side if I am to be whole, said Dr Carl Jung. So what is the dark side of a polarized new-ager because a coin has two sides?

In the second verse of the second stanza of his poem titled, "The Genius Of The Crowd" Charles Bukowski gave us some insight into the flip side of the nature of the proponents of love & light.

He recited that /the best at hate are those who preach love/ and in the last stanza, he warned suffering humanity to be aware of this kind of preacher because their hatred will be perfect like a shining diamond like a knife like a mountain like a tiger and like a hemlock their finest art.

Upon the destruction of the wisdom of the wise and the frustration of the intelligence of the intelligent, what's left is Yahuah's rational meaning of love rather than a self-taught and emotionally based one where everything goes. For wholeness to be accomplished as well, the path of the heart warrior can be taken in the process of doing shadow work.

A great analogy that enlightens the mind about shadow work is to imagine your mind as a house and a burglar has broken in. Your motive shall be to grab a flashlight and find where he is. The burglar represents the dark thoughts in the psyche. So the practitioner aims to capture and transform them then annex them into the conscious mind.

Rethinking Therapy Settings: Insights from "Redpill Psychology"

What can possibly be happening in the minds of men sitting in female dominated space, box of tissue at their side, with a woman saying “tell me how you feel” about this or that? Even worse, asking such probing questions with the implication that he is an empty emotional vessel in need of her redemption. Lea Winerman, a staff writer for the American Psychological Association asks us to “imagine the Marlboro man in therapy.” Imagine instead a therapy office in the boiler room of a ship, in a workshop, a park, a building site, mechanics shed or a sports locker room, with seating arrangements that allowed men to sit at 45 degree angles or side by side — engaged in some kind of task if they wished.           Imagine too if we were to engage in some kind of typical male play or industry – not just Jungian sandplay or water-color art therapies as suits the more effeminate sensibilities of women, but hands on therapy – while driving a truck, fixing the engine of a ...

Proof the New Age Movement is Satanic

Rhetoric is the art of ruling the minds of men and it's composed of logos, pathos, and ethos. The first part of ethos is establishing your credentials to be speaking to the audience on the specific subject matter.  So when you decide to give your life to Jesus after years of apostasy, the strongest resistance comes from lost souls who need Jehovah the most. These are individuals with multiple personalities and idolaters - people who draw metaphysical power from sacred geometry pendants. The first sign of their insanity is revealed by how you have to reinforce biblical common sense upon their psyche over and over again expecting a different result but they keep on retaliating using uneducated opinions. Have you ever argued with someone with short man syndrome on Facebook? The aftermath is a pensive feeling. Satan, the enemy of God is, in reality, the highest divine spirit and the arch-deceiver commissioned the mother of the new age movement to downplay him and affiliate him with the...

The Dangers of Cults: The Dark Side of Religiosity

Religion can be powerful in people's lives, providing hope, comfort, and a sense of community. Whether it's the rituals and traditions of mainstream religion or the intense personal beliefs of those who follow more unconventional paths, religion can bring a great deal of meaning and purpose. However, there is a dark side to religion as well, particularly when it comes to cults. The recent news out of Kenya is a tragic reminder of the dangers of allowing ourselves to become caught up in a system of beliefs that leads to death. Reports of at least 103 people, including children, starving to death after following the instructions of their religious leader to embark on a fast to "meet Jesus" are disturbing. Cults are a manifestation of what happens when groupthink becomes too strong, and critical thinking takes a back seat. It starts with the charismatic leader and the promise of transformative and magical experiences, which leads to a group of followers who b...
