My New Age Hippie Counterculture, One-World Mission
by Thomas Ivan Dahlheimer
In an online encyclopedia
document about the history of the New Age
there is a statement that reads: "From a historical perspective, the New Age phenomenon is rooted
in the counterculture of the 1960s."
The
Rainbow Family is a large international,
hippie counterculture group. It is also considered one of the largest and most geographically
diverse New Age groups. The Rainbow Family is an active and influential New Age part of [today's]
contemporary hippie counterculture movement.
A "New Age hippie" is someone who is both part of the hippie counterculture movement and
the New Age movement. These two movements are closely linked culturally and spiritually.
Several modern intentional communities, including the Rainbow Family, are spiritually
and intellectually where these two movements converge and fuse together into kind-of another
movement.
Google search states: Several modern intentional communities
continue to be inspired by the fusion of hippie counterculture and New Age ideas.
Albert Bates
Another one of these "modern intentional communities," is The Farm. It was founded in 1971
by Stephen Gaskin and 300 spiritual seekers from Haight-Ashbury and San Francisco. It is located near
Summertown, Tennessee. It is also an eco-village. Albert Bates is a prominent member of
"The Farm." He is also a renowned hippie counterculture icon who was a co-founder and president of Global
Ecovillage Network (GEN). GEN connects 6,000 grass-root communities in 114 countries.
Mr. Bates is also GEN's
representative to the UN climate talks. He is a lawyer who has argued cases before the U.S. Supreme Court.
He has authored more than 20 books. He and I occasionally correspond. He has been
supportive of my work.
I have a Facebook group that is about my New Age hippie counterculture, one-world revolutionary mission.
It is titled "The Mr. & Mrs. I. (I) C. (See) Rainbow Family Mission." Several of
my Rainbow family relatives have joined this Facebook group.
Both my Facebook group's introduction
and an
article of mine present evidence
as to why I believe my extended Mr. & Mrs. I. C.
(I See) Rainbow family is destined to lead this revolutionary counterculture mission to its ultimate
goal. The establishment of the New Age of peace, love and unity. Wherein humanity will be religiously
liberated and also united in a one-world government, religion and economic system.
Caryl Matrisciana, the author of the best-selling book "Gods of the New Age" produced a video (presented below) about
how the Beatles' 1960s counterculture and New Age spirituality "is rapidly gaining global acceptance, today." When referring
to the 1960s "hippie spiritual revolution" and the "New Age," Peter R. Jones, an internationally renowned
Christian theologian, lecturer and author, wrote: Indeed, the Sixties was a spiritual revolution that has now morphed
into a worldview that promises to alter how we all believe and act in the planetary era.
In the 1960s, the hippie spiritual and religious revolution was highly influenced by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi,
Paramahansa Yogananda and the Beatles.

This picture of Yogananda in the clouds and under a rainbow came from an Ananda Sangha Worldwide article. This picture is now also
on my Facebook group's site, titled "The Mr. & Mrs. I. (I) C. (See) Rainbow Family Mission."
"One-World Church Expected This Year,” this is the title of an article published in Catholic
Culture. In the article, its author Cornelua R. Ferreira wrote: Global ethicists are actually
following Helena Blavatsky, founder of the New Age Movement. Blavatsky said she wished to revive
Second—and Third—Century theosophy, which aimed "to reconcile all religions, sects and nations under
a common system of ethics" and "to induce [religions] to lay aside their ... strifes, remembering
only that they [all possessed] the same truth" or "ancient wisdom.
New Age Hippie countercultural religiosity manifests as a syncretistic
ecumenism of the world's religions, religious revolution seeking to unite humanity in a one-world
religion within an emerging new astrological age. It is highly influenced by Theosophy, Hinduism, Buddhism
and "Christian" Gnosticism. I believe it will soon also be highly
influenced by a minor religion, the Lakota religion.
"Although not common throughout the counterculture, usage of the terms 'New Age' and
'Age of Aquarius' – used in reference to a coming era – were found within it, for example appearing on
adverts for the Woodstock festival of 1969, and in the lyrics of 'Aquarius',
the opening song of the 1967 musical Hair: The American Tribal Love-Rock Musical." -

More on the hippie Rainbow Family:
The international hippie "non-organization" named the "Rainbow Family of Living Light," a
group commonly called the "
Rainbow Family"
has many devotees of the New Age hippie counterculture revolution.
A few years before a 2015 Time Magazine article chronicled "today’s hippie counterculture movement," the world's
largest Indian news source, "Indian Country Today Media Network," published an article that promotes a book titled
Hippies, Indians and the Fight for Red Power. This same book is
promoted in a 2015
article by Dina Gilio-Whitaker, an associate scholar at the Center for
World Indigenous Studies.
In the article, Gilio-Whitaker wrote: "The uproar about the Rainbow Family Gathering in the Black Hills reminds us that the
counterculture is alive and well in the US. Not just a relic of a forgotten era..." In the article she also states that
"in the 1960's and 70's counterculture hippies were important allies" who "helped advance the Red Power movement."
I have been an Indigenous rights advocate for decades. I have received correspondence and support from several internationally
renowned Indigenous activists for an advocacy initiative of mine . I have also received correspondence and support from both, the United Nations
Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues and the Pontifical Council Of Peace And Justice. More on my advocacy work:

"Those who attend Rainbow Gatherings usually share an interest in intentional communities, ecology, New Age
spirituality and entheogens." (ref.)... At Rainbow Gatherings: "New Age beliefs are prevalent." (encyclopedia ref.)(ref.)
Hippyland:
There is an over 290,000 registered members interactive website named Hippyland. Its founder and webmaster, Ship Stone, has
posted and prominently displayed articles of mine that promote my New Age hippie counterculture, (I See Rainbow) One World Mission.
Video of a rainbow over the City of Wahkon, Minnesota:
This video of a rainbow over the City of Wahkon, Minnesota was produced by yours truly. This rainbow appeared on the day I sent a
letter to my kinship Rainbow family relatives calling them to come and join me in Wahkon to usher in the New Age. I believe that
the appearance of this rainbow is a divine sign.
Introduction to a Caryl Matriscia video about the Beatles:
In a popular contemporary video
produced by the
author of the best-selling book Gods of the New Age, a video about the Beatles'
late 1960s hippie counterculture and New Age spiritual philosophy.....the video's anti-New Age and anti-counterculture narrators
(including Caryl Matrisciana, the video's producer) present evidence
and acknowledge that the Beatles' promotion of the counterculture and New Age spiritual philosophy was
originally accepted, globally...and because of the Beatles' inspired and promoted spiritual and
religious revolution, a revolution "that radically changed a generation's perspective on the meaning of
life, it is still rapidly gaining global acceptance, today."
Here is the Caryl Matrisciana video about how the Beatles' late 1960s
spiritual philosophy is still rapidly gaining global acceptance, today.
Because of this wide-spread Christian propaganda, a lot of people wrongly believe that the counterculture
and New Age religion is about pantheism or the type of pan[en]theism that is essentially pantheism.
Those who believe in this type of pan[en]theism perceive God as being just a little bigger than the
Universe. Or, they believe the Infinity of God beyond the universe is essentially irrelevant. Helena
Blavatsky, the Mother of the New Age Movement, and Paramahansa Yogananda, the "Father
of yoga in the West" whose influence was worldwide, both make it clear in their teachings that the
ultimate goal of the devotee is to become One with the Infinite Spirit beyond the Universe.
In THE SECRET DOCTRINE Vol. 1, Page 274, Blavatsky wrote "The Universe is called, with everything in it,
Maya, because all is temporary therein, from the ephemeral life of a fire-fly to that of the Sun.
Compared to the eternal immutability of the One [Spirit]." Yogananda wrote: Spirit is not the universe;
Spirit is that which was and will be whether the universe does or does not exist.
The Infinite Spirit is also in the universe. This aspect of Spirit outwardly manifests
as the Universe. Yogananda said the Universe is essentially an undifferentiated mass of light.
[Albert Einstein wrote: "What we have called matter is energy....matter is spirit....there is no matter.]
The devotee has to become One with the Divine (light-energy and no matter) manifestation of the
Universe before he/she can go through It to become One with the Infinite Spirit beyond the Universe.
Yogananda's Guru wrote: Jesus meant, never that he was the sole Son of God, but that no man can obtain
the unqualified Absolute, the transcendent Father beyond creation, until he has first manifested
the ‘Son’ or activating Christ Consciousness within creation. - Swami Sri Yukteswar
Yogananda's classic book:
ANANDA, a global movement that
promotes the Beatles' (mostly George Harrison's) 1960s spiritual philosophy of Yogananda
Swami Kriyananda
Founder of Ananda
Ananda: Some more evidence of the growing contemporary "global acceptance" of the Beatles' counterculture
and New Age spiritual philosophy can
be found at Ananda or
Ananda Sangha Worldview. And, even more so, in an article about Ananda, a global movement that promotes the late 1960s
spiritual consciousness of the Beatles. In the late 1960s, the Beatles (mostly George Harrison) were promoting the
teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda. I believe in Ananda!
Here is one of Ananda's videos:
VIDEO: Beatles' Inner Light With Joanne DiMaggio:
Joanne DiMaggio was the national chapter director of the "Beatles USA Limited," the official
national Beatles fan club. In the video, Joanne talks about how the Beatles "planted the seeds"
of the counterculture and New Age Eastern, or Hindu/Buddhist, spiritual philosophy and how these
"seeds" are now sprouting and growing, creating a revival of the Beatles' late 1960s spirituality.
In the video, there is a clip of the Beatles with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in India. Paramahansa
Yogananda's name is also mentioned in this video.
Ram Dass
Ram Dass, born Richard Albert in 1931, became a disciple of the Indian Hindu guru Neen Karoli Baba in
1967. With the name Baba gave him, Ram Dass became a spiritual teacher to a multitude of hippies in
the late 1960s and early 1970s. He became very popular after his best-selling 1971 book "Be Here Now"
was published and read by many. Mostly, by way of the hippie spiritual revolution, Ram Dass helped
popularize Eastern spirituality and yoga in the West.
Ram Dass died in 2019, I believe his legacy will grow as today's contemporary revival of the late
1960s and early 1970s hippie spiritual revolution continues to move forward toward its goal: to
usher in the New Age, wherein "the world will live as one." - John Lennon.
The United Nations' religion is the hippie religion:
An American best-selling author and internationally recognized speaker, Dr. James Lindsay, produced a
video titled "The Occult Theosophy Of The United Nations," wherein he says this occult religion of
the UN is the "hippie religion." An article of mine on this Dr. Lindsay's video is titled "The Gnostic
Theosophical Movement Of The United Nations."
Michael Matt is the leader of a large and fast-growing global movement of traditional Roman Catholics who
believe the late Pope Francis was, as Mr. Matt said, "the hippie pope trying to finish the revolution." An article
of mine on this topic is titled "Traditionalists' Perspective On Pope Francis' Legacy And
My Vision For The Church." Pope Leo XIV said he vows to continue Pope Francis's prophetic vision for the Church.
Mr. Matt is opposed to today's one-world religion movement.
He says the 1960s Vatican II Catholic Church is now very active in it and is leading it. He also says, if
it is not stopped by traditionalist Catholics, the Vatican II Catholic Church --- the Church that, from its origins
in the 1960s, "moved away" from a Catholic dogma as it merged with the 1960s counterculture, one
world religion movement --- will, with the pope as the head of the counterculture movement, establish a "diabolical
one-world religion."
Alice Bailey
Alice Bailey (1880-1946) was a renowned New Age and Theosophical philosopher. A former
United Nations Assistant Secretary-General, Robert Muller, openly promoted a worldview
based on the spiritual philosophy of Bailey and her guru, Djwhal Khul. Their teachings
are now highly influential in the broader New Age movement. Bailey and Khul's New Age esoteric
ideas heavily influenced Muller's UN work on global education.
Bailey and Khul were
profoundly influential in shaping the New Age movement. They were preparing humanity
to one day be unified in a single, universal world religion.
Bailey prophesied that
"the Christ would work through the churches [to usher in the New Age] only when there
is a living nucleus of true [New Age] spirituality [prevailing in the churches]."
The Emerging New Christianity
ABOUT THE EMERGING "CHRISTIAN" NEW AGE SPIRITUAL PHILOSOPHY: A HIPPIE
WORLD UNITY SIGN (pictured below) is prominently displayed in a Caryl Productions 2012
video about a large contemporary New Age/New Spirituality "Christian" movement that is portrayed
as a new expression of the "1960s young people's" (hippie's) Hindu/Buddhist New Age spiritual philosophy.
This Caryl Productions video is titled: WIDE IS THE GATE - The
Emerging New Christianity
VOLUME 1 and
VOLUME 2. There is also a green hippie peace
sign on the cover of the video's advertised DVD.
A Mille Lacs Messenger newspaper
letter to the editor of mine is about my global decolonization environmental mission.
An article of mine on this topic is posted on the Mille Lacs Messenger's newspaper website/blog. It is titled
New Age Globalization And The Coming New World Order. In this article I
promote a decolonization global paradigm shift based primarily on
a radical transformation of Christianity, a transformation that is already beginning to occur by way of both, the
massive infiltration of New Age/Hindu or Eastern mysticism and yoga meditation into Christian churches and the
renunciation of the Doctrine of Christian Discovery and Domination of Indigenous Peoples by the World Council
Of Churches and several mainline denominational Christian Churches.
Because of modern-day
scientific discoveries that expose an essential Christian dogma as false and
the Doctrine of Christian Discovery and Domination of Indigenous Peoples radical injustice as well as other
reasons, I do not believe in historic and traditional Christianity and I would like to see it come to an end. However,
I am a devout New Age "Christian" follower of Jesus Christ, who I believe is a New Age/Hindu guru. I believe that there
are Bible scriptures that
prophecy this coming global paradigm shift that I am promoting.
