I have listened to your podcast for years and often recommend it to others. But one of my awe spots is when science intersects in new and wonderful ways with my faith. When I can embrace both truths. So posting for the very first time to thank you for a morning of several awe moments as I prepare a Sunday School lesson. Keep up your great work.
The science is always catching up, and in my humble opinion the magic, the mystery, the wonder and awe will always be there in everything, whether science got involved or not.... That's because awe is, and always has been there whether it was proven or not. Bless you for this beautiful podcast. Thank you so very much 💚💙🙏🏻
Truth tears came at about 12 minutes! As I was driving to work…. There they came!! I was in AWE! Definitely sharing and re listening. And finding the book! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Thank you so much Tim for exposing your deep vulnerability in all the ways you've done that. I've often wondered this same question about awe vs feeling the spirit. I appreciate seeing the power of the initial stance that "both things are true". You were able to grow despite your vulnerability by holding a "nondual" space, protective of trusted wisdom and explorative for truth at the same time. What a powerful way to learn and grow line on line and transition from milk to meat. I think so often we're afraid of the transition out of milk into meat because it requires a new model and worldview to hold both things being true. What an awe requiring way to live. For me this is the compass I use for if I'm comfortable exploring or not, am I filled with dread approaching this new topic, or is there potential for awe. Perhaps that is just a new way for me to define openness. Regardless, thank you for this and looking forward to the restore conference immensely!
D&C 131:7-8 says, "There is no such thing as immaterial matter. All spirit is matter, but it is more fine or pure, and can only be discerned by purer eyes; We cannot see it; but when our bodies are purified we shall see that it is all matter." I believe this shows our doctrine aligns with the science Dacher talked about.
• Once a day for a minute • 1. Slow down 🤲 2. Put away your devices 3. Take a few deep breaths 🫁 . . . 4. And just think for a moment about something vast that’s mysterious for you and around you in your immediate life context 🤔😮😯 • A one minute exercises that produces an awe mindset no matter where you are • - Dacher Keltner “Awe changed my life.” ☝️
"It seems like what Latter-day Saints call 'feeling the Spirit' has a strong connection to what Dacher refers to as awe..." "Awe" is not the third member of the Godhead in whose name we baptize and perform temple sealings. We must be very careful to use discernment as outlined in Section 50 of the D&C verses 19026 so that we are not deceived. The markers of the spirit of truth are (1) we mutually understand one another (a very high bar for today's communications), (2) both/all involved are edified, (3) both/all rejoice together, (4) God is light and not darkness, and (5) one/something ordained of God is the least and the servant of all (perhaps a still, small voice?). Unschooled, our natural emotions and adrenaline can mislead us. Add substance abuse and people go far afield of the feeling th Holy Ghost. I very much enjoyed the video and learned much! Thank you.
