Swedenborgian Eleanor Schnarr on Neuroscience & Spirituality
Episode 15
jeudi 29 avril 2021 • Duration 01:12:59
Host Rev. Cory Bradford-Watts interviews artist, poet, and Swedenborgian Eleanor Schnarr about eighteenth-century scientist and mystic Emanuel Swedenborg’s early explorations of the human brain and breath control and how his findings influenced his later works on spiritual anatomy. As a student of Swedenborgian Studies at the Graduate Theological Union, Eleanor has written several fascinating papers about Swedenborg’s practice of internal breathing and how it compares to other ancient meditative forms such as tantra and yoga. Eleanor draws on her extensive research to explain how Swedenborg used meditative breathing to access the spiritual world and how we can also experience divine consciousness. This is an audio version of a video interview. Watch the video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/RVvRMFoj7Lg

★THE HOST★
Rev. Cory Bradford-Watts is an ordained minister with the Swedenborgian Church of North America and a member of the Swedenborg Foundation board of directors. His current ministry includes leading and officiating the Swedenborgian Online Community—an affirming interfaith group that meets weekly to grow in love and wisdom online. Cory was exposed to many different religious traditions growing up, but he had little personal belief in divinity. Then, after experiencing a mystical near-death experience as a young adult, he started to sense the spiritual qualities of life and developed a belief in the Creator. He eventually found himself drawn to the pluralistic, Christian nature of Swedenborgianism, and he answered the call to uplift others wherever they’re at, no matter their creed or culture.

jeudi 10 janvier 2019 • Duration 56:44

Book recommendations and more resources below ↓↓↓↓
In this episode of the Transcendiots webcast we talk with Swedenborgian pastor Junchol Lee about how the God-less philosophies of Buddhism and Taoism led him to the God-centered aspect of Christianity. Troubled by the ideas of karma and reincarnation that form the basis of Buddhism, he soon turned to Taoism, but quickly realized he was also missing a connection to the one Divine source found in Swedenborgianism.

Episode 13

Host Rev. Cory Bradford-Watts interviews offTheLeftEye Director Curtis Childs about how he started a successful YouTube channel based on the spiritual work of a little known eighteenth-century Christian mystic named Emanuel Swedenborg. Learn how Curtis' own struggles with anxiety and depression opened his heart and mind to Swedenborg's writings and the peace of heaven, and how it inspired his desire to help others manage their suffering too.

Trailer: Transcendiots
vendredi 29 mai 2020 • Duration 01:00
First episode coming Thursday, December 13th, 2018! Transcendiots is a bi-weekly spirituality-based webcast hosted on the Swedenborg Foundation's YouTube channel. Co-hosts Cory Bradford-Watts and Colin Amato were inspired to start the project while in ministry training at the Center for Swedenborgian Studies of the Graduate Theological Union. Motivated by the depth of religious backgrounds of others they crossed paths with at the school, they decided to turn on their cameras and start talking--talking to people with all different kinds of spiritual and life experiences. Now, a year later, they're launching their first series of videos in partnership with the Swedenborg Foundation so others can witness the interesting things that happen when ideas of heart and mind are exchanged between diverse people in the midst of their personal evolutions.
