Point taken Ukr; but I just have to say that sometimes getting through each day is so difficult (with sincere prayer and "doing the right things") and if carrying a rock or crystal, which I do upon occasion, seems to help things...so much the better. I always thank God for making these stones, as well as the trees, and other things of nature. I never leave Him out nor forget from whence my strength cometh.
I like yourself my friend got spiritual in the first place due to New Age documentaries such as "The Secret", "What the bleep do we Know" and so on and so forth. I was raised Catholic, and insist to keep my faith in the gospels. I therefor set out on a journey to reconcile both worlds, a journey i'm still unfortunatlely on. One thing that helped me a lot was the Mystic Christ concept. I suggest you do an Amazon search for a good book on the topic. It may not help you with knowing if New Age Practices are gonna send you to hell or not... But it will help you resolve conflicts between New and Old Doctrines, dogmas and beliefs. In all my journey and research though one thing always remains true though my friend, and that is the gospels of Jesus. The wisdom to understand/interpret it... oh my ... that is a different story
