61. Social problems are transformed into a problem of individual "vibrations."
There is another important change here. For example, low wages, long working hours, unstable employment, and high housing costs are social problems. However, when spiritualized, they are transformed into individual problems such as "you are not able to receive abundance." Then, instead of changing the social system, you end up trying to change your subconscious mind.
In a sense, this weakens the social critique that was originally inherent in counterculture. The counterculture of the 1960s said, "Society itself is wrong." In modern self-help spirituality, it sometimes becomes, "You just need to change your vibration." This is quite a significant difference.
