			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>I just thought I should clarify my position a little and say that I don&#8217;t really consider <em>A New Earth</em> to be &#8220;New Age.&#8221; I thought about editing my last post to state as much but decided to just add another. As I said in my reply comment to Semjaza, I would call it more of a metaphysical or self-help book, which is highly influenced by Buddhism. I know a lot of people group all of these together anyway, or at least New Age with metaphysical, so it may not matter, but to me, they&#8217;re three different categories. In fact, to me, New Age is a pretty outdated term, and metaphysical makes much more sense nowadays. Of course, I guess to many that this is all just semantics and my own personal take, in any case. I&#8217;d love to hear from others how they feel about these terms&#8211;if they prefer one over the other, why, or if they feel they&#8217;re the same thing. Just in general, although if someone wanted to discuss in which category/categories they place the Tolle book, this is fine, too.</p>
