    92. Eastern Religions | Series: Two Philosophers Wrestle With God | Dialogue 9 [Part 2]

    92. Eastern Religions | Series: Two Philosophers Wrestle With God | Dialogue 9 [Part 2]

    Philosophical and spiritual dialogues sharing a new perspective on Eastern religions from God: An Autobiography, As Told To A Philosopher. Explore Eastern religions as experiences with God in uniquely intrinsic ways, from deep within one's self, and discover how Eastern spirituality guided human spiritual development and the growth of God's story and evolution.

    While Jesus and Buddha share words of empathy and compassion, Western and Eastern religions have distinctive histories with God and interact with the Divine in very different ways.

    Consider a new perspective on Hinduism and understand reincarnation as a learning process. Within infinite worlds and lives, each lifetime is a pursuit of Karma, or balance, utilizing Dharma as a call from each person's talents and story to achieve spiritual living.

    Listen to a new view on Daoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism as revelations of harmony, compassion, and empathy, but with a new insightful twist on God's perspective of Buddha's revelation.

    Join host Scott Langdon for this profound conversation between Dr. Jerry L. Martin and Dr. Richard Oxenberg of philosophy and religion, daring to consider God's perspective in the series Two Philosophers Wrestle With God, Dialogue 9- Eastern Religions.

    Dr. Jerry L. Martin is a philosopher and author of the true story, God: An Autobiography, As Told To A Philosopher and is the founding chairman of the Theology Without Walls group at the American Academy of Religion.

    Dr. Richard Oxenberg is a professor at Endicott College and has published numerous articles on ethics and theology, including: On the Meaning of Human Being: Heidegger and the Bible in Dialogue.

    Analytical and energetic philosophical and spiritual discussion of God: An Autobiography, As Told To A Philosopher- a revelatory revelation preserved for this special point in history.

    Jeremiah, Ramakrishna, the writers of the Upanishads, and Lao Tzu-illustrations of God's contact through unique cultural traditions, language, technology, resources, and developed consciousness. 

    Dialogue 9 examines the impact of Eastern spirituality on the development of divine reality through transpersonal interactions with God, rather than the personal aspects of God, resulting in the actualization of distinctive aspects of God. 

    Explore the soul, or the Atman, and imagine infinite worlds and an ultimate level uncovered through Jerry's conversations with God.

    90. What’s On Our Mind- How God Communicates

    Just as God adjusted communication to each culture's needs, capacities, and talents, God interacts on a personal level, expressing different aspects through each individual, pushing development, driving reality. 

    What do prehistoric cave paintings, Chinese aesthetics, The Upanishads, and Jesus have in common? They are all examples of divine interaction within different cultures. 

    At this point in history, a time of globalized communication, a new familiarity with diverse religions, revelations, and enlightenments across tradition and culture has inspired a renewed spiritual wisdom that God communicates in many ways. Explore this dramatic change in understanding of Divine reality and the relationship between God and humans and discover the rich spiritual meaning of life.

    What's On Our Mind- Show host Scott Langdon and Dr. Jerry L. Martin discuss how God develops and learns in partnership with humans through a meaningful relationship. 

    • Two Philosophers Wrestle With God- World Religions- dynamic dialogues between Dr. Jerry L. Martin, reporter and author of the true story God: An Autobiography, As Told To A Philosopher, and founding chairman of the Theology Without Walls, and Dr. Richard Oxenberg, professor of ethics and theology, and author.

    89. What’s On Your Mind- A Relationship With God

    Hear profound communications from readers responding to God: An Autobiography, As Told To A Philosopher, inspired by the pivotal moment of faith when Jerry, a philosopher, and nonbeliever, sends prayers of gratitude to the unknown. Meet Gerald and Margaret, who share contrasting experiences and obstacles in their relationship with God. 

    Gerald is a skeptic, dismissive of divine relation, yet open-minded enough to be a seeker of truth. Margaret can connect with God in simple yet profound ways but struggles with the relatable issue of willfulness getting in the way of purpose. 

    Dr. Jerry L. Martin, author of the true story and recorded communication with God in God: An Autobiography, As Told To A Philosopher, and show host Scott Langdon, discuss these two letters of spiritual blocks, lessons on life, and forming a purposeful relationship with God- getting to the heart of God's reported message.

    If not through the mind, how does God communicate with humans? Open the mind- listen with intellect and heart as this discussion journeys to the existential edge of life. These lessons go beyond philosophy, Hegel, and Buber, and resonate with the same profound wisdom hidden in tales like The Little Prince and preserved in the purposeful willfulness of one of history's greatest treasures, Joan of Arc.

    88. World Religions | Series: Two Philosophers Wrestle With God | Dialogue 8 [Part 2]

    Which is true- evolution or Adam and Eve? Can someone believe in Jesus without being Christian?

    Explore these timeless questions in part two of the conversation between philosophers Dr. Martin and Dr. Oxenberg on World Religions in Two Philosophers Wrestle With God. Investigate beyond the truths defined through sect and look deeper at the ultimate truths found in revelations.

    Uncover the story of Adam and Eve as a myth leading to an essential truth about the pain and suffering that results when detached from God- finally, Adam and Eve can exist with evolution. Monotheism, polytheism, and impersonal nontheistic spirituality are all a part of God's story and this conversation. Understand the Kingdom of God as the reception in the soul of God's presence leading to salvation and the world's divine history.

    At the heart of every religion is not the same repeated message but a unique representation and aspect of God's Self communicating with diverse and distinctive cultures throughout time, each revealing a puzzle piece to the bigger picture.

    The real action is here and now. The battle between good and evil is internal and external, moral and spiritual, and an ongoing struggle. However, this effort creates the story of life- a story with great purpose, integration, and harmony.

    Dr. Jerry L. Martin is a philosopher and author of the true story, God: An Autobiography, As Told To A Philosopher and is the founding chairman of the Theology Without Walls group at the American Academy of Religion.

    At the heart of every religion is not the same repeated message but a unique representation and aspect of God's Self communicating with diverse and distinctive cultures throughout time, each revealing a puzzle piece to the bigger picture. Time to put these pieces together and discover the Ultimate Truth.  

    Explore religions of the Western world like Paganism, Polytheism, and the unique revelation from Zoroastrianism- a distinctive divulgence of God's two sides and an unexplored understanding of evil.

    Learn more about Theology Without Walls, a project aiming to understand each religious tradition as evidence and insight from multiple traditions, leading to the ultimate truth.

    With insight from philosophers Wilfred Cantwell Smith, John Hick, and Aldous Huxley, examine religion in the context of perennialism philosophy.

    86. What’s On Our Mind- Pay Attention

    Consider the language of God's communications through various traditions and experiences and how best to articulate experiences with God or spiritual experiences within these confines. Learn to experience the Atman, the Self behind the Self, and God as ever-present throughout daily life- in the texture of Andrew Wyeth's paintings, Patti LuPone's legendary career as a Broadway star, and Einstein's world-changing genius.

    God: An Autobiography, As Told To A Philosopher is a revelation reported by Dr. Jerry L. Martin and offers a unique narrative account of God's experiences throughout history and beyond time.

    84. The Nature of Human Beings | Series: Two Philosophers Wrestle With God | Dialogue 7 [Part 2]

    Join host Scott Langdon as he connects Dr. Jerry L. Martin and Dr. Richard Oxenberg for part 2 of the dialogue on the Nature of Human Beings from Where Two Philosophers Wrestle with God.

    Explore reincarnation and the meaning of karma through God's revelation to Jerry about the nature of human beings and humans' intimate connection with God as a co-partner in a shared world of creation.

    Part 2 looks at the wholes within the whole- living harmoniously as an orchestra- but even Beethoven had more love and loss in his life than his perfectly balanced symphonies. Are you answering the many callings and lessons of this life? The first part of this dialogue focused on God's geocentric and anthropocentric qualities and visited concepts of Darwinian evolution (with a teleological dimension), consciousness, identity, infinite worlds, Leibniz, and Sri Aurobindo. 

    The Atman, or Self behind the Self, is united with Brahman- fundamental reality, the Divine, or God. God's consciousness flows and develops in response to humans' discovery and perception of the Self behind the Self, or Atman. Explore humans' intimate connection with God as a co-partner in a shared world of creation.

    Dr. Jerry L. Martin is a philosopher and author of the true story, God: An Autobiography, As Told To A Philosopher. He has served as the head of the National Endowment for the Humanities and the University of Colorado philosophy department and is the founding chairman of the Theology Without Walls group at the AAR.

    Dr. Richard Oxenberg is a professor at Endicott College studying philosophy and ethics of religion and wrote: On the Meaning of Human Being: Heidegger and the Bible in Dialogue.

    Join host Scott Langdon as he connects Dr. Richard Oxenberg and Dr. Jerry L. Martin in Where Two Philosophers Wrestle with God, to discuss God's revelation to Jerry about the nature of human beings and how humans and God relate. 

    Is God geocentric- focused on what's happening on the Earth? Is God anthropocentric- focused on the development of human beings? To answer these questions, this dialogue also delves into Darwinian evolution (with a teleological dimension), consciousness, identity, infinite worlds, Leibniz, and Sri Aurobindo. 

    The Atman, or Self behind the Self, is united with Brahman- fundamental reality, the Divine, or God. God's consciousness flows and develops in response to humans' discovery and perception of the Self behind the Self, or Atman.

    82. Self Behind The Self | Special Episode: Experience God Again, A Review Of Episode 29

    Welcome to a special episode of God: An Autobiography, The Podcast, a dramatic adaptation and continuing discussion of the book God: an Autobiography, as Told to a Philosopher by Jerry L. Martin. 

    God's experiences, history, and evolution are rooted in humankind's condition, development, and response to God. This special revisits episode 29 where God Explains The Self Behind The Self, and goes beyond the tip of the iceberg, diving deeper into the concept of the Self behind the Self.

    This episode is in preparation for upcoming episodes in the series Where Two Philosophers Wrestle with God, a dynamic dialogue between two philosophers who will begin shifting the conversation towards investigating the nature of human beings.

    "I cannot move at a pace greater than the human reactions. That is why it is important for you to tell My story, My history of interactions with humans, from My side. You will see that a development in God is really a response to, (and) conditioned by, the development of men (human beings) and their response to me."

    77. What’s On Our Mind- Spiritual Development

    God: An Autobiography, As Told To A Philosopher offers a unique first-person account of God's experiences. God shared his story with philosopher Dr. Jerry L. Martin and explained the God beyond God, existing before Creation, and the birth of the God of this world through the Big Bang. 

    Imagine each life story as a great drama, with God playing every character, experiencing the suffering and potentiality of the universe through the unfolding of each life story, working in partnership with every character toward the most remarkable story ever told- and lived. Are we more similar than separate from God, flawed but evolving, growing in potentially through our copartnership to achieve an ideal story?

    Join us for an insightful conversation between Jerry and Scott about their personal spiritual experiences while recapping points from the most recent podcast series. Jerry discusses loving the God in everyone, even the evilest, and the mind as a medium, something similar to consciousness, housing God's divine presence, the connective tissue of the universe.

    Are you living your story's true potential in rhythm with God? Being the best version of yourself involves a simple task- love yourself. Silence the distractions and hardships of the world, relax and yield to God, and discover your ideal life story.

    75. The Big Picture | Series: Two Philosophers Wrestle With God | Dialogue 5 [Part 2]

    The ancients wondered whether gods were subject to constructs of Time and Fate. Today, we question whether God can change rules like E = mc2 or if He works in rhythm with the universe, yielding to the laws of nature.

    Join host Scott Langdon as he connects Dr. Richard Oxenberg and Dr. Jerry L. Martin in this discussion for the series: Where Two Philosophers Wrestle with God, Dialogue Five- The Big Picture, investigating the implications and the big picture of life.

    Is existence meaningless and no one in control as the nihilists believe, or are the absolutists correct in an absolute reality capable of controlling everything? Join us somewhere in the middle, a twilight zone located at the crossroads of philosophy, history, and our understanding of God.

    Consider the world's religions as exploratory points of interaction between humans and God, seeking to understand His nature, developing a joint project of self-discovery and fulfillment, leading to the big picture of it all.

    Dr. Oxenberg has written: On the Meaning of Human Being: Heidegger and the Bible in Dialogue

    73. What’s On Our Mind- God's Evolution

    Scott and Jerry recap the past three podcast stories, covering Where Two Philosophers Wrestle With God, and What's On Your Mind. An insightful conversation between Jerry and Scott about their personal spiritual experiences while recapping points from the most recent series, including dialogues, and responses from readers and listeners.

    Listen to a philosopher's experience communicating with God, where God explains human history as co-evolving with His own dramatic story. Not a theological debate but a discussion that includes philosophical theories, often seen through the lens of logic, and spiritual experiences perceived through the lenses of different religious communities. Join us in this still-lingering time of enforced leisure and understand what it means when God said, "Listen!"

    This interesting conversation covers the paradox of evil, how to pray, and whether a parent's frustrations are similar to God's frustration. But, can God be like us in just doing His best?
