I could be wrong.
Here's a timely clip about the "pre-trans fallacy" where "pre-conventional" thinking is confused with "post-conventional". i.e. the "magical thinking" being appealed to in this show is much along the same lines as other hyper-intuitive nonsense such as "What the Bleep" and "The Secret".
"It is difficult to learn alone for there is a built-in handicap, at once the great virtue and the great handicap of third density. That is the rational/intuitive mind."
"In your illusion the unbridled predominance of intuition will tend to keep an entity from the greater polarizations due to the vagaries of intuitive perception. As you may see, these two types of brain structure [rational/intuitive] need to be balanced in order that the net sum of experiential catalyst will be polarization and illumination"
With these videos, we have the a gross imbalance between the intuition and rational mind. (With the rational mind being thrown away) Basically, what's being exploited are the many who happen to hold sympathy for the higher or mystical states (post-conventional) but whom confuse pre-rational (pre-conventional) states with them: http://www.praetrans.com/en/ptf.html
Pretty much sums it up:
"Many of the elevationist movements, alas, are not beyond reason but beneath it. They think they are, and they announce themselves to be, climbing the Mountain of Truth; whereas, it seems to me, they have merely slipped and fallen and are sliding rapidly down it, and the exhilarating rush of skidding uncontrollably down evolution's slope they call "following your bliss." As the earth comes rushing up at them at terminal velocity, they are bold enough to offer this collision course with ground zero as a new paradigm for the coming world transformation, and they feel oh-so-sorry for those who watch their coming crash with the same fascination as one watches a twenty-car pileup on the highway, and they sadly nod as we decline to join in that particular adventure. True spiritual bliss, in infinite measure, lies up that hill, not down it."
