In the words of Jesus, "You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God (Matthew 22:29)." In this particular instance He was addressing a question about the resurrection, but the same principles apply when investigating any spiritual matter to apprehend truth about such matters, which is to know the Scriptures and the power of God.
First, I have been studying New Age doctrines as part of my comprehensive apologetic developments, and have come to discover that, aside from being in obvious contradiction to the Scriptural doctrines, they are entirely derived from variations of disguised satanic teachings. If you want to take the first step to relinquishing your confusion, I would begin by removing yourself from subjection to teachings derived from the author of that confusion. Secondly, do not heed the advice of any person, regardless of their professional position, who directs you towards sources which the Scriptures explicitly reveal that God detests (Deuteronomy 18:9-14) or you can expect to encounter the difficulties you are now. Do not forget that false prophets have existed all throughout history, and we have been forewarned that they will continue to emerge (2 Peter 2:1, Matthew 24:24) until the end of the present age (which is not "new" until Christ makes it new, Revelations 21:1).
As Paul also warned, "For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths (2 Timothy 4:3-4)."
And as John also admonished:
"Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world (1 John 4:1-3)."
If you have not already, then you need to submit your life to Christ, your Lord and your Saviour who bought you at the high price of His own blood for the redemption of your soul, and forsake these satanic practices which are throwing you into confusion. If you have submitted your life to Christ, then you need to forsake these teachings of the enemy of your soul and stop being lukewarm in your faith. The only reason you will have to fear the condemnation of the eternal removal of God's presence from you is if you continue in this lukewarm and honestly detestable lifestyle (Revelations 2:22-25). Subsequently, you need to study the Scriptures prayerfully and with trustworthy guidance from a person that presents Scripture as it is written in its context. With the habits you currently have of finding false teachers, I would highly recommend returning to this site to confirm frequently the doctrines you are being taught to compare them to what the Christian community here can present
with demonstrable accuracy and consistency. I say this because I am honestly concerned for you with the situation you are in of being surrounded by heretical teachers.
I will be praying for you, but you need to wake of from your stupor of believing that you can serve two masters and not find yourself in the ordeal you are experiencing now. If you love this world and the things of the world, you will only make yourself an enemy of God and the love of the Father is not in you (1 John 2:15). Turn from these and towards Christ and the promise you have is that you will receive the Holy Spirit (Luke 11:13) who will produce fruit in you
if you heed His voice, to the inevitable result of peace, power, joy and soundness of mind (2 Timothy 1:7).
