Great post, I highly recommend the documentary "The Century of the Self" which covers this in frightening detail. I'm not a religious person, but in my view religious communities are some of the few that have been able to see and understand the deleterious effects of this "field of study".

That is a good documentary indeed (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0432232/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0432232/). For me, it offered a better understanding of modern western civilization — of the interplay between politics, consumerism and spiritualism (without there being need for any conspiracies). Since watching it I regularly, on occasion, ask myself: Are my desires being channeled right now?
