  • EP. 81 - The Silence, the Serpent, and the Lie: How Kundalini Yoga and Contemplative Prayer Corrupt the Church
    Nov 15 2025

    In this powerful episode of Discerning the Drift, Addie K. Miller exposes the escalating spiritual deception entering the church through contemplative prayer, kundalini yoga, and the emergent/postmodern movement. Continuing her review of Lighthouse Trails’ resources, Addie reveals how yoga’s “serpent power” (kundalini), Lectio Divina, silence-based meditation, and spiritual formation practices are rooted not in Christianity—but in Hinduism, occultism, and Eastern mysticism.

    Addie dismantles the myth of “Christian yoga,” shows how contemplative prayer requires altered states of consciousness, and exposes the dangerous belief that normal prayer and Scripture are not enough. She documents the real manifestations of kundalini awakening—trances, shaking, spasms, emotional outbursts, psychic experiences—and draws undeniable parallels to hyper-charismatic “signs and wonders” movements. Finally, Addie begins unpacking the unbiblical teaching that God can only be found “in the silence,” highlighting how Scripture presents a God who speaks and works loudly, clearly, and without mystical techniques.

    This episode is a thorough warning—and a call for believers to reject every occult technique masquerading as Christian spirituality.


    Dive deep into scripture with Addie as current events, teachings in the modern church, testimonies, trends, important biblical teachings, and the sweeping drift away from the basic truths in the Bible across the modern-day Church are all brought to light to be tested only against the infallible, un-changing, Word of God on Discerning the Drift.

  • EP. 80 - Yoga, Kundalini, and the Serpent Power: The Hindu Roots of a Christian Deception
    Nov 15 2025

    In this episode of Discerning the Drift, Addie K. Miller continues exposing the spiritual dangers of yoga and its complete incompatibility with biblical Christianity.

    Drawing from Chris Lawson’s Yoga and Christianity—Are They Compatible?, Addie reveals the dark truth behind the many forms of yoga—karma, kundalini, tantra, and others—all rooted in Hinduism, paganism, and occultism. She explains the true meaning of “kundalini,” or serpent power, and how yoga is designed to awaken this demonic energy within the practitioner.

    From “Christian yoga” classes to contemplative practices promoted by emergent leaders, Addie warns that these techniques are not physical exercises or relaxation tools—they are gateways to altered states of consciousness and spiritual deception. This is a sobering call to discernment in a culture that is embracing Eastern mysticism under the guise of wellness and spirituality.


    Dive deep into scripture with Addie as current events, teachings in the modern church, testimonies, trends, important biblical teachings, and the sweeping drift away from the basic truths in the Bible across the modern-day Church are all brought to light to be tested only against the infallible, un-changing, Word of God on Discerning the Drift.

  • EP. 79 - Contemplative Prayer, Eastern Mysticism, and the Christian Yoga Deception
    Oct 22 2025

    In this episode of Discerning the Drift, Addie K. Miller exposes the unbiblical roots of contemplative prayer and its deep ties to Eastern mysticism.

    Drawing from Lighthouse Trails resources by Lynn Lesby Pratt and Chris Lawson, Addie reveals how contemplative practices like Lectio Divina, breath prayer, and meditation techniques mirror Hinduism, Buddhism, and transcendental meditation—not biblical prayer. She also warns against the growing acceptance of “Christian Yoga,” explaining its true meaning as “yoking to the divine” and its roots in Hindu theology and occult philosophy.

    From Thomas Merton and Richard Foster to modern church movements and yoga ministries, Addie makes it clear that these practices are leading believers away from Scripture and into spiritual deception.


    Dive deep into scripture with Addie as current events, teachings in the modern church, testimonies, trends, important biblical teachings, and the sweeping drift away from the basic truths in the Bible across the modern-day Church are all brought to light to be tested only against the infallible, un-changing, Word of God on Discerning the Drift.
