  The masquarade of wizards. Some thoughts before Halloween.
  
  In memories of the Father Seraphim Rose.
  
  I would like to give my opinion on modern spiritual trends, mainly I will be writing about the New Age movement. I can"t tell about myself that I am a sinless person and the one, who never makes mistakes. I do, a lot, and I know well all about myself. But I have my strong opinion about the charlatans and fake prophets, who serve lies wrapped in a glitter paper. First of all, there is a great difference between traditional religions and all kind of the New Age movement practices. Traditional religions have approved moral and practices by many generations. The Fathers were intelligent and educated people. Though, some historical facts and some individuals may be examples of how religions and faith are misunderstood. But these days we face something, which is destroying minds and souls of the people, who lack spiritual vision. And this is the reason why any freak or a sick person can wear a wizard"s cloak and call himself a guru or a prophet. The circus of freaks, a mix of everything possible and impossible, in which I would include all the range of the New Age products from the holotropic breathing as a neo-shamanic healing practice (which I strongly dislike and criticise in my articles about shamanism) to mediums, who believe to be talking with angels or gods. Really talking? This is so dangerous and we never know where these practices can lead a person, who can"t distinguish between good and bad. This is a blind spirituality, deception, a trap. Moreover, it can mislead a person from taking a medical treatment in serious cases, it can ruin health and relationship, because the aim of the deceptive movement is to destroy the precious creation of the God, to treat a man as a puppet and make fun from him, giving him fast food spirituality. Only spiritual maturity and intelligence can distinguish between paths leading to a spiritual growth and becoming better self. As for me, I have read works of the Father Seraphim Rose, an Orthodox Monk from the USA, who"s criticism of the New Age movement and its practices taught me to be careful.
   I have nothing against pumpkins, but as we have brains in our heads and not pumpkins instead of heads, let"s use brains before opening doors into our souls to unknown spirits, who say "trick or treat".
