Perhaps the most widely known and used belief of the New Age "religion" is that of meditation and out-of-body experiences.

Simple and mostly harmless meditative practices and the more advanced mind controlling spiritual-physical alterations of the true occultist metaphysical beliefs of the New Age movement are what define, to the public, the New Age movement.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

We have all sinned and deserve God’s judgment. 

God, the Father, sent His only Son to satisfy that judgment for those who believe in Him. 

Jesus, the creator and eternal Son of God, who lived a sinless life, loves us so much that He died for our sins, taking the punishment that we deserve, was buried, and rose from the dead according to the Bible.

If you truly believe and trust this in your heart, receiving Jesus alone as your Savior, declaring, "Jesus is Lord," you will be saved from judgment and spend eternity with God in heaven.

Yoga, the kundalini and chakras

What is a chakra?

.

The spiritual experience achieved through the kundalini and chakras is undeniably real, and it may feel like a connection to the divine, but it is not of God - the message of Eastern mysticism is contrary to the gospel. The gospel tells us that God reached down to save humanity, but Eastern mystics assert that man can, via various techniques attain a godlike state or connect with the divine. Belief in chakras is a deception that Satan uses to lead people away from the grace of the Lord - spiritual enlightenment does not come through chakras but through a relationship with the true God

Got Questions Ministries

A chakra is a spiritual “power point” used in Yoga and Eastern mysticism.

The word chakra describes one element in a highly complex system of thought about the energies of the body.

The following terms are associated with the chakra. The definitions reflect beliefs held by many Hindus, Buddhists and practitioners of Yoga:

Prana – life energies found in parts of the body, also called “subtle winds.”

Subtle body – similar to a soul, this is a body of energy containing the chakras.

Nadis – energy channels, or meridians, that run like veins through the subtle body and serve as conduits for the prana. The central Nadi runs alongside or inside the spine and is associated with the central nervous system.

Chakras – the points of energy on the surface of the subtle body. Located along the Sushumna or the central Nadi.

   This and two other primary Nadis run through the core of the body, twining around one another and penetrating the chakras.

   In some traditions, each chakra is a central hub for thousands of Nadi. Each chakra is associated with a mantra “seed-syllable” (usually a Sanskrit word), and often with a particular color and deity.

The chakra, or chakras, play a role in certain types of medicine.

Acupuncture, for example, and other types of Chinese medicine claim to use body energies and meridians to promote healing.

Whether or not chakras exist, many people have found acupuncture to provide relief from pain. So, there may be a physical benefit to acupuncture independent of the spiritual philosophy behind it.

The real danger of belief in the chakras is in the spiritual overtones connected to it.

The chakras are central to a meditation technique known as Kundalini, which literally means “that which is coiled.”

Kundalini is also the name of a goddess.

The belief is that Kundalini is a divine force which resides at the base of the spine and, when “awakened,” travels up the spine (the central Nadi) and through each chakra until it reaches the crown of the head.

Along the way, this uncoiling “goddess” brings spiritual awareness to the individual. When it reaches the uppermost chakra, this force is said to generate an ineffable, highly mystical experience.

People who have engaged in this type of meditation will testify both to its power and its danger.

One Christian woman describes her pre-Christ experience with mantra meditation:

“Mantra meditation is so very seductive because it generates a very powerful, seemingly supernatural experience that can make one feel as if they are actually encountering ‘God.’ The first meditation I ever did at age 20 left me utterly convinced that I had experienced the presence of God.

“In hindsight, I believe that this encounter truly was supernatural. The Bible tells us that Satan himself can masquerade as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14).

“So I ask you: would Satan be so bold as to actually pretend to be God? Of course he would. He’s no gentleman. It’s not like he would say to himself, ‘Well, that would be deceitful, I can’t do that!’ More like this: ‘That’s deceitful - awesome!!

“I wonder how many times I could trick people into thinking they’re encountering God before somebody starts to catch on?’

“And Satan was more than happy to give me an ‘experience’ if it would turn me away from the one true God.”  http://solasisters.blogspot.com/search?updated-min=2009-01-01T00:00:00-05:00&updated-max=2010-01-01T00:00:00-05:00&max-results=5 

She goes to describe the frightening after-effects of this experience. (Listen to her story here: http://solasisters.blogspot.com/2010/01/fighting-for-faith-interview.html)
The spiritual experience achieved through this type of meditation is undeniably real, and it may feel like a connection to the divine, but it is not of God.

The Bible says that we should reject spiritual messengers who claim to be from God but speak “a different gospel” (Galatians 1:8).

And the message of Eastern mysticism is contrary to the gospel.

The gospel tells us that God reached down to save humanity, but Eastern mystics assert that man can, via various techniques involving chakras and Nadi, attain a godlike state or connect with the divine.

Belief in chakras is a deception that Satan uses to lead people away from the grace of the Lord.

Spiritual enlightenment does not come through chakras but through a relationship with the true God (Psalm 36:9).
