If worship is not necessary (your thread title), please explain the word Messiah (in your title), which means "annointed" (Hebrew word mashiyach {maw-shee'-akh})...
How might you justify the title of this thread with your title:
New Age Messiah? Is it not about "worth"?

On the most basic level, the idea of New Age and Messiah imply NEW and the sacrificial element to bring in the NEW.
OUT with the old, in with the new.
I made the sacrifice, for the right reason, with the right intention, from the heart. I didn't sacrifice an animal, or a virgin, or my money, or my time, I sacrificed myself and my life, in FAITH, and She accepted my sacrifice.
No one told me, "Go into the depths to find something new". I didn't copy anyone. I didn't get a degree or follow any ten step program, and I didn't listen to anybody else, no matter what they said. I never once worshipped anything or anyone.
Worship is "sending energy to God" who is "somehwere".
ALL energy comes from God, and is in fact, God.
There is NO path to send it back. It's a one way street.
You have to block the energy, divert its natural path, and corrupt it, to "send it back". It's like putting a mirror in the sunlight, to send back the light. Kinda dumb.
When you worship, you're not sending anything to God.
You're doing what the priests and the religious books told you to do.
