It is a 33 page term paper (C-level), by Carina Gustafsson, titled (in Swedish):
Religion till salu! En studie om försäljning av indiansk andlighet inom New Age rörelsen
(Religion for sale! A study about the sale of Indian spirituality in the New Age movement)
Still worth reading, after all these years. (I'd welcome some kind of updated and enlarged version.)
--- Quote from: Freija on April 07, 2007, 08:44:00 am ---A Swedish lady heard about our film and about NAFPS, she had got apalled by the abuse of Ndn ceremonies and decided to write her dissertation on this topic. She has done a really good job. Most of it is in Swedish with some English quotes here and there, but I know many people in Scandinavia visit this board and may find this dissertation helpful!

Needless to say, she has had a hard time after this dissertation was published. She has had several letters from angry people involved in the exploitation. But also, this has been a real eye-opener for lots of people that just didn´t know what was going on.

It's also very good, but in Norwegian, unfortunately. I'm posting it because I know that we have people who speak scandinavian here :)
