I think it's not bashing 'magic' per say but a critique that the way it is taught is in a way lacking and leads naive minds to believe that just thinking will manifest something, whereas as others said, action is paramount.I would agree with Davis' assessment. He is describing an aspect of the green vmeme. Very simply, interior perspectives are relatively new here at that vibration and so easily misguided toward non-polarizing notions which emphasize infinite possibilities as an attempt to feed ego. Many are entertaining a new aspect of themselves which may provide one of the only ways to connect with the spirit, which has a sacred, mystical, and affirming feel and so is usually compelling as a transcendent function. Intersubjectivity is only available later, after more work in polarization, and provides the perspective necessary to see the pathology and limitations of "infinite personal interiors" and their social projections (which are readily demonstrated on these forums). I would say unequivocally that it is impossible to understand the dynamic, the "new-age/magical thinking meme" dynamic, without transcending it through yellow or later stages of mind where a degree of honesty is finally available.
