The Nature of the Soul

John James, PhD

Show Description:
The Wellness Roadshow welcomes back Dr. John James, author of 'The Great Field'
as we discuss "The Nature of the Soul"
Our discoveries on the nature of the human soul are tantalising and somewhat unconventional. Religious wisdom has altered our meaning of soul to suit their own agendas – but therapy shows precisely how it is. Find the answers to questions like:
"Is the Great Field as God a him or a her?"
"How will this understanding of soul alter the way in which the major religions pray and hope?"
"If soul has no feelings, but just awareness, isn't this the ultimate in sartori or nirvana?"
"If the heart is more powerful than the brain, how come society came to prefer thinking over feeling."
Come join host Catherine Bradford with returning guest Dr. John James for what will no doubt be a provocative and inspiring conversation.
