There are a lot of traditional religious practices that have been sanitised for modern consumption and marketed to the modern professional. The general vibe i get from these people is that these practices are useful inspite of the religion and need to be liberated. Sam Harris who does this with meditation etc. says that we don't have "Christian science" because science is true and useful regardless of where it comes from and that "Christian" is not relevant. I've held this to be short sighted. Useless at best. Socially and personally damaging at worst. This just seems to be the latest manifestation.
