# The Worldview

Underneath the practices and the symbolic systems sits a set of claims about how reality works — about consciousness, energy, causality, the soul, destiny, healing, and the unseen agencies people believe accompany them. This section is the home for those claims. Each article states what the belief asserts, how insiders understand it, where it came from, what practices depend on it, and where reality-testing matters.

The beliefs collected here are the ones that do the most load-bearing work in the field: the law of attraction and manifestation, the idea that everything is vibration or frequency, karma as it traveled from its source traditions into popular use, the higher self, spirit guides. The section also holds the conceptual anchor of the Left-Hand Path — the self-deification-versus-ego-dissolution polarity that explains why the field's antinomian currents cluster together and how they differ from its wellness mainstream.

These articles describe beliefs without presenting them as established fact. When a claim has not been demonstrated, the article says so; when practitioners and skeptics read it differently, the article reports both. A reader trying to understand what a practice *means* to the people who do it — the rationale beneath the ritual — will find it here, and a reader who wants the cautions will find them crosslinked in [Discernment](discernment.md).
