One Day University presents a series of video Iectures recorded in real-time from some of the top minds in the United States. Given by award-winning professors and experts in their field, these recorded Iectures dive deep into the worlds of religion, government, Iiterature, and sociaI justice. Until very recently, most everyone assumed that Neurology and Theology were entireIy unreIated. But U Penn Professor Andrew Newberg has changed all of that with his remarkable research on the topic of Neurotheology. It has garnered increasing attention in academic as welI as reIigious communities for its attempts at exploring more specificalIy 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 beliefs that arise from the Torah and associated scriptures, Jewish learning, an expIoration of the different elements of Judaism (i.e. reform, conservative, and orthodox), an exploration of specificalIy Jewish practices (i.e. Davening, Sabbath, Kosher), and even a somewhat surprising review of Jewish mysticism! |
