Why Was Esoteric Reason Displaced

There is economic stability problems, unemployment and declining membership figures in the churches – the “flight to the esoteric” to explain many approaches. But what mechanisms are there then the individuals who get a people to determine their destiny with a pendulum, or instead of waiting for the bus on a UFO? What’s behind this when people touched by a view of healing, or want to can see the “aura” of other fellow human beings? It is natural to bind together unfairly and all alternative beliefs to a “belief in the esoteric”. Since esotericism is not a homogeneous faith as a religion. Rather, picking his world picture together is the trailer from what appears to him as a logical or finds satisfactory answers at a particular beliefs or guru. And exactly what makes the skeptics when he sees Monika at the Tarot reader, but at the same time bless from their apartment at the Feng Shui consultant can be so cynical. But what are these experiences which were touched by angels or their subtle Astral body has made a journey? These are all lies? Of course not. But how to explain? The power of (Auto) suggestion of each file-X fan knows the UFO poster with the inscription “I want to believe”.

This sentence tells us more than it may seem. Because instead of “I think” is just “I want to believe” on the poster. A well-known wine experiment, which I read when Thorsten Havener is illustrative of the power of suggestion: A guest waiting for a supposed wine tasting and get two glasses with wine served. What the guest does not know: it is the same wine from the same bottle. The hosts now introduces the “wines” and explains the first wine although of excellent quality that however when compared to the second wine contains more acid. The decorated fails the description of the wine, the better the experiment will work: the guest is then asked to make an opinion.
