The description of New Age as "Theosophy plus therapy" is quite apt, and it is unfortunate, that New Age uses scientific jargon to create the illusion of meaning, without connection with reality. While it is usually pretty obvious when concepts that are relatively well know in modern society are misused that way, it is far less obvious when important concepts from other cultures suffer the same faith. Words and phrases taken from Traditional Chinese Medicine, one of the most advanced systems of medicine in the world, are often twisted in the same way that Western concepts from physics, psychology and philosophy are abused by the ignorant.

To show how easy it is to our brains with this fact-free, emotionally-charged language that tries to bypass our rational thinking, this "New Age Bullshit Generator" generates a New Age word salad with the push of a button. Its author hopes to encourage more scepticism of this kind of discourse, and of the many charlatans who use it to pervert the human desire for transcendence and take advantage of vulnerable people for personal gain.
