The basis of the madness spread under the name of New Age spread all
over social media, the 'belief' of the human instinct to believe, the
spirituality offered by the videos is not considered much different from
religions in the past. Whether the religious ritual is praying in the mosque
or studying at the temple, it may be based on someone's desire to
synchronize the community. Do we call it someone's game, is it an
attempt to put it to sleep, or is it a new colonial tool that capitalism
found in the 21st century? However, when we look at the power of New
Media, it brings together people who have never seen each other,
regardless of rich or poor, under certain feelings, and people who have
experienced the same things reach and support each other, the fact that
a content gets more interaction continues to increase that content and
it seems like it will. People strangely think that they switch to the same
frequency in the comments. If I have to give a funny but strange example
to this, one week after the earthquake exercise in Turkey, an earthquake
was felt in Istanbul with the Düzce earthquake. Several groups claimed
that the drill was a huge manifesto and that we were running the law of
attraction.
It is also possible to say that most of these content produced from a
different perspective actually want to revive Eastern religions with New
Media.
