“There was an emphasis on joy. For many of us raised in the Christian traditions, suffering was seen as a path to awakening, the hair shirt, the crown of thorns, the often unconscious belief that nothing good or worthy could be realised, without pain. Peter maintained that this was ‘old age’ thinking and in order to usher in the new, a commitment needed to be made, to joy and peace, hallmarks of the New Age; creating the conditions for healing to occur.”
