Is New Age Philosophy Really New?

According to New Age Philosophy the world is about to enter into a new period of existence. New Age Philosophy teaches that it is the natural tendency of all things to evolve to a higher level of awareness and/or experience. I totally agree with this concept, however, I must question whether the concept is actually new? Did we only recently begin to believe that man through self-realization can attain higher level of consciousness? Did modern thinkers develop the ideas that man can live a life of pleasurable spiritual experience through the development of a Divine Consciousness?

Most New Age practitioners ready admit that the philosophy is based on ancient traditions, however they want us to believe that New Age thinking is the result of a supposedly new understanding of the Universe. Modern day scientist are said to have discovered that everything is made up of energy. As a result of this discovery we now have a better understanding that everything in the universe has it own unique vibration. In order to bring on this new world order, man must raise his vibrational level to match the universal vibrations that surround us.

The idea is to resonate together with the divine. Sounds that vibrate at the same frequency are said to resonate together. It is hoped that a better understanding of the universal vibrations and its influences will allow us to make more accurate decisions toward our evolutionarily growth. Human evolution necessitates that man raises his vibrational level to be more at one with the universal vibrations.

Since none of the above statements in reference to human evolution is new, I must conclude that New Age Philosophy is not really new. We can simply consider it new thought-ancient wisdom. Egyptian philosophers, then Greek philosophers taught about the interconnection between the universe and man. They were aware that the human brain is an "electromagnetic pulse generating device". The ancients knew that individual vibrations resound in the same rhythms. They knew the importance of us aligning our bodies with a true connection to the divine. They know that subtle vibrations of energy surround us, and by using these energies we can experience self-healing in our emotional, mental and physical bodies.

    The Death of the Information Age

     
    There is a death occurring on a grand scale. It is the death of "The Information Age." And personally, I find it very exciting! Let me explain why...

    All life is constantly growing and changing. It is no accident that the economy is currently experiencing a re-balancing. It is the universal law of rhythm, designed to balance out overgrowth and bring focus back to center. When you are out of alignment with the purpose you are here to serve, the universe will throw a curve ball to get your attention! Our economic focus has been out of alignment and we now have a beautiful opportunity for the emergence of new prosperity.

    This prosperity is a being ushered in by a new wave of conscious entrepreneurs. These are people who are in business primarily to make a difference in the world. They are committed to the greatest good for all. Win / lose is on its way out, collaboration is the new economic driver. It is the only choice for future success in business.

    As our world accelerates, this type of entrepreneur is becoming the single most rapid growing segment of the entrepreneurial community. We are about to witness a large influx of self employed individuals and entrepreneurs. And in order for these people to succeed, they must be in alignment with their unique purpose.

    This is the future of business. It is about BEING who you are and expressing yourself through your business. Entrepreneurs who choose the conscious path are consistently experiencing personal growth through their business. Your business expands as you expand. The process of doing business IS the lessons of your personal growth. This is the new business model that is being born in the midst of the decay the media is screaming about.

    A new age is emerging. We are moving out of "The Information Age" and into "The Inspiration Age." Inspiration being defined as in-spirit or of-source. Conscious business owners are integrating spirit into business. When you align your business with this inspiration everything flows naturally and the abundance of the universe will be yours. In order for this to happen you must have the practical systems in place to receive. This is about practical applications of your spiritual gifts. The integration of the two, is part of the Inspiration Age Business Model.

    It's time to turn off CNN (Constantly Negative News) and tune in to your higher self, that part of you that knows exactly what you are here to do. Step out of the fear and into the light. Get quiet and listen to the voice that is always there nudging you to the perfect answer. When you hear the whisperings, ACT! Take big bold action toward your truth. It promises the richness and prosperity you are meant to receive.

    Welcome to the new age of inspiration. There is so much to be excited about!

    Personal Development - Raise Your Consciousness

    A key step to personal development is having the courage to take action regardless of fear. No doubt there are real dangers in life that should be avoided, but courageous people rely on common sense and logic to protect them realizing that fear will not. Courage is a quality that is often overlooked in our hectic daily lives, but it can have an overwhelming effect on our relationships and personal growth. If allowed to fester, fear and lack of courage can prevent even the hardest working individual from carrying out the tasks presented to them. Fear can hold almost everyone back.

    Denying your fears creates a vicious cycle that will cause you to have these nagging tendencies to be non-confrontational. Your personal development will come to a standstill. To resolve this behavior one needs to summon their courage and confront that inner voice that is telling you to avoid conflict. Once you have conquered your fears you can move on to recognizing your values. Knowing your values will give you tremendous clarity and focus to help you make wise and consistent decisions. Learn how to not waste time as you can always fix your mistakes but you can never redo yesterday.

    Making a list of what you want out of life will in many ways give you a personal development inventory wish list. Ask yourself what is meaningful to you in your life today and what areas do you want change and improve. Get in touch with your passions and desires. Stop allowing other people dictate your future for you. Make your own choices and don't have any regrets about them. Examine the list of things you want most out of life with the attitude that you know who you really are. Being honest with yourself, answer your questions and act on them.

    For just a moment think about your judging mind. Personal development can be enriched by examining how we judge people. Research has shown that how we judge a person reflects very strongly on us! If we have a strong reaction to a person we probably have the same thing in us. Our judgments of others act like a mirror that casts a reflection of us. Our judgments affect our personal growth in a manner that is subtle yet profound. Think for example a friend of yours who judges people as either rich or poor. They don't see the true person and what they are.
