I am interested to find out what the New Age considered to be 'Universal Laws' and as many examples of them so I can understand the logic.

I highly doubt New Agers follow the Hebrew Shema. Lol. (Deuteronomy 9:6)
I am serious about my question on these universal laws. It appears I have already discredited one that is trumpeted around of there needing as a requirement for function a universal balance of impersonal opposing forces.
Are you sure you want to go down the route of saying the New Age follow the summary statement of from Jesus implying they keep the Divine Law?
The New Age do not keep the 1st (have no other Gods before me, referencing the God of the Bible)
or 4th commandments (keep the Sabbath-day Holy in remembrance of the creator) natively and it is debatable if they keep the 2nd and 3rd commandments as well.
Are you sure you are not mistaken here and you really meant to say the popularized 'golden rule' of 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you' (which is a summary statement of commandments 5 thru 10 only)?
Surely there must be some other kinds of rules involved in how to get 'ascension' ready or on other aspects???

TextI disagree... but again it depends on which "sect" we're talking about... And which God... There is a vast difference between the "God" of the OT... and the one Jesus spoke of...

i can't help it if Christians amuse me...
besides, i've already said my piece on this thread.
New age is a Christian label... nothing more. Many of these beliefs are far older then Christianity... the only reason people don't understand them is because of their bias towards the bible.
Step out of the book, and you'll find "new age" beliefs come from the sources i've already listed.
So they're not even "new"
How sad is it when the label doesn't even fit the belief...

That is a lie...
TextPhilip said to Jesus, "Lord, show us the Father. That is all we need." Jesus answered, "Philip, I have been with you for a long time. So you should know me. The person that has seen me has seen the Father too. So why do you say, 'Show us the Father'? Do you truly believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The things I have told you don't come from me. The Father lives in me, and he is doing his own work. Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me. Or believe because of the miracles I have done." (ERV) Full Text

Keep reading the rest of that passage!! Don't just stop there...
Read carefully.... and by the way i've arleady said my piece in your thread... i tire of this arguement quickly
Because It never ends...
32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?
37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.
