And that melting into and becoming one with the universe is not Roy...he knows we do not become one with the universe...that is new age stuff and Roy is most definitely not new age.
>Occasionally you will feel suspended in space, as if your body had melted into the universe and become "one" with all nature. .235 (p. 41)<
And that melting into and becoming one with the universe is not Roy...he knows we do not become one with the universe...that is new age stuff and Roy is most definitely not new age.
Wrong, as that is indeed the words of Ray, as you can see right here in “How Your Mind Can Keep You Well,” p. 41, http://books.google.com/books?id=lE5maGVa0NgC&printsec=frontcover#v=snippet&q=melted%20into%20the%20universe%20and%20become&f=false
Thus by your own analysis Roy does indeed teach “new age” stuff, which other quotes from the same book (among others) are like:
Just observe as though you were looking through the middle of your forehead, the place where thoughts arise,
The process of imagery is designed to inaugurate a chain reaction of responses touched off by conscious awareness. When your hand begins to rise, it is evidence of an energy value originating within you. But once you discover that by concentration through the middle of your forehead you can affect bodily responses, then imagery is no longer necessary.
Just being aware of the patterns of light and color that you see in your mind, and projecting them into the tingling of your hands, is all that is necessary....The patterns of light are etheric “computer” data that replace the lying imagination and its excuse-making proclivities. They effect every cell and nerve fiber in your being. They are the reverse of light waves of environmental pressure that affect your body adversely. As they reverse the negative effects of pressure, they impart an intelligent pattern of enfoldment. (How Your Mind Can Keep You Well, The object of meditation)
