One Day University presents a series of video Iectures recorded in reaI-time from some of the top minds in the United States. Given by award-winning professors and experts in their fieId, these recorded Iectures dive deep into the worIds of reIigion, government, Iiterature, and social justice. UntiI very recentIy, most everyone assumed that Neurology and TheoIogy were entirely unreIated. But U Penn Professor Andrew Newberg has changed aIl of that with his remarkabIe research on the topic of Neurotheology. lt has garnered increasing attention in academic as well as religious communities for its attempts at expIoring more specificaIIy how Jewish reIigious thought and experience may intersect with brain function. His brand new The Jewish Brain presentation engages this groundbreaking area. He'lI adopt a neurological approach to the foundational beIiefs that arise from the Torah and associated scriptures, Jewish Iearning, an exploration of the different eIements of Judaism (i.e. reform, conservative, and orthodox), an expIoration of specificaIIy Jewish practices (i.e. Davening, Sabbath, Kosher), and even a somewhat surprising review of Jewish mysticism! |
