Bonus: Hay House & New Age Jesus

Coming off of Conspirituality 22 with Rebekah Borucki, Matthew casts a wider net over Hay House’s cultural influence in two parts: a brief survey of some of their top authors, and then an examination of a root text in the Hay House world: A Course in Miracles.ACIM’s corrupt and emotionally manipulative philosophy is the basis for the work of authors Marianne Williamson and Gabby Bernstein, overlapping almost perfectly onto “The Work” of Byron Katie. Louise Hay, for one, was fond of quoting it. Matthew proposes that A Course in Miracles is the unacknowledged in-house bible for Hay House. He has a lot to say about it as a former member of a cult called Endeavor Academy in Wisconsin Dells, which used A Course in Miracles as its core text, and primary tool of psychological abuse.Show NotesLouise Hay quotes A Course in MiraclesWayne Dyer quotes A Course in MiraclesHow Byron Katie emotionally dominatesBryon Katie on feeling God as babies die and how Hitler maybe brought people to enlightenment (pp. 37-39)Julian’s open letter to NorthrupJivana Heyman on Louise Hay (and more)Louise Hay and AIDSApplying “The Work” of Byron Katie to the PandemicAt the heart of ACIM’s influence on New Age wellness is the absurd contempt for the process of becoming sick expressed by “Jesus” in Lesson 136Letter from Centre for Science in the Public Interest to the FDA detailing Joseph Mercola’s fraudulent COVID curesAn early marked version of A Course in MiraclesA history of A Course in Miracles editing -- -- --Support us on PatreonPre-order Conspirituality: How New Age Conspiracy Theories Became a Health Threat: America | Canada Follow us on Instagram | Twitter: Derek | Matthew | JulianOriginal music by EarthRise SoundSystem Learn more about your ad choices.
