Great we have similar viewpoints! Yes I'm sure I will write on these subjects at some point, I have done blog articles on forgiveness, acceptance, gratitude before now and grounding another one that does much damage!
The New Age Movement is sabotage really as you say, to stop people progressing and truly understanding, keeping them 'grounded' to dark and evil, hooked on gurus and not discerning for themselves! Another herd of sheep that don't see that they are sheep. I wrote an article "All You Need is Love - But is that True?" here on Steemit saying that love alone is not enough and so many just don't get that Truth and standing up for what is right and moral is a huge part of awakening. So yes I agree with you and awakening is a lot of pokes in the ribs, and a few jolts of lightening too! :)
