    Apparently new age mumbo jumbo is very popular. Here is a bullish!t generator. If you find yourself feeling enlightened while reading it then you might need to take a look at yourself.

    This life is nothing short of a blossoming fount of cosmic wonder.

    The goal of sub-atomic particles is to plant the seeds of learning rather than stagnation. The dreamtime is beaming with sonar energy.

    It is time to take health to the next level.

    Great fun with this website aside (and I did have fun - thanks!), that whole new age subculture is widespread and pervasive nowadays and I find it pathetic.

    I mean we are all human beings with our ups and downs in life and chasing some understanding of 'happiness', but folks who get caught up in that type of charlatanism on an ongoing basis (buying books, sharing quotes on social media, and doing courses) are pretty badly damaged I reckon. There is often little you can do by way of intervention as you will merely be branded a cynic. Middle class females with low academic achievement are typically the big game species for the 'practitioners' who are not burdened with qualms or scruples.

    (Looks like tinyurl is used to take out a bad word that gets censored out of the original by boards)

    Mumbo Jumbo is a religion so you should probably not single it out as meaning BS. All religions are equally BS

    Close enough. 40 year old childless low-earning female college dropout is the US archetype according to pew research centre. Younger people are less likely to buy into it apparently. I find that encouraging.

    More than half of people believe some sort of new age nonsense apparently - in most countries. Astrology, crystal healing or psychic powers.

    No it just means nonsense. Or deliberate nonsense intended to confuse people. But I meant it as just nonsense.

    I googled what you said and it's a fictitious religion in a novel by Robert Heinlein, so I'm guessing you read that.

    You may be ruled by discontinuity without realizing it. Do not let it extinguish the deeper meaning of your mission.

    Yeah that's the point. Random new agey words strung together and actual new age literature are the same thing.
