Revelations about the Book of Revelation Probably the most consequential vision of the future ever written is the Bible’s "Book of Revelation". If God didn’t write it (through the sainted instrument of someone named John), then who did, and why? Elaine Pagels has a persuasive answer, spectacularly illustrated. The author of "The Gnostic Gospels"; "Beyond Belief"; and "Revelations: Visions, Prophecy, and Politics in the Book of Revelation", Pagels analyzes other revelations of the time (they were common) and examines how John’s particular version of apocalypse made it into the world’s most popular book. John had his own agenda. It wasn’t Christian. "The Truth About the Book of Revelations" was given on August 20, 02012 as part of Long Now's Seminar series. The series was started in 02003 to build a compelling body of ideas about long-term thinking from some of the world's leading thinkers. The Seminars take place in San Francisco and are curated and hosted by Stewart Brand.

Elaine Pagels, a Princeton professor and author of The Origin of Satan, joins MythVision to reveal one of the most shocking truths about the history of Christianity: Satan did not emerge as a “cosmic demon” the way most people imagine. In this episode, we explore how the figure of Satan was shaped over time — from ancient Judaism to early Christianity — and how the concept of “good versus evil” became a powerful social and political weapon. Pagels explains why Satan barely appears in the Old Testament, how the Gospels began associating religious enemies with the “devil,” and how this narrative helped justify historical persecution, including the rise of Christian anti-Judaism. 💥 This episode is essential for anyone interested in: - Early Christianity - Biblical history - Apocryphal Gospels - Gnosticism - The origins of the idea of the “devil” - Politics and religion in the ancient world 📚 Check out Elaine Pagels’ recommended books in the description and support MythVision for future in-person interviews! https://www.elaine-pagels.com/ Help support MythVision's trip to interview Dr. Elaine Pagels in person - https://gofund.me/b43e3f43 #MythVision #Christianity #Jesus #Mythical #JesusMythTheory #HistoricalJesus #JesusDebate #BiblicalCriticism #ReligiousHistory #JesusMyth #ChristMythTheory #Skepticism #SecularScholarship #CriticalThinking #AtheistPerspective #FaithVsFact #BeliefQuestions #HistoricalJesus #ApocalypticProphet #Eschatology #BiblicalStudies #NewTestament #MythVision #MythVision #Mítico #JesusHistórico #DebateSobreJesus ============================ CONTACT ME Website: 👉 https://mythvisionpodcast.com/ Email MythVision: 👉 mythvisionpodcast@gmail.com Facebook Page: 👉 / mythvision Facebook Group: 👉 / thewaterboyzradio Twitter X: 👉 https://x.com/DerekPodcast - - @DerekPodcast TikTok: 👉 / mythvision Instagram: 👉 / dereklambert_7 Discord: 👉 / discord =========================== Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgLZ5SDuR1W_xO8y3A_4VVw/join

Watch episodes & bonus content ad-free on https://bialikbreakdown.substack.com/ What if everything you’ve been told about spirituality and mental health is wrong? In this powerful episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Anna Yusim—Clinical Assistant Professor at Yale Medical School, co-founder of the Yale Mental Health & Spirituality Program, and author of Fulfilled: How the Science of Spirituality Can Help You Live a Happier, More Meaningful Life—reveals the biggest misconception about spirituality and why it’s not about religion, “good vibes,” or blind belief…it’s about science, psychology, and lived experience. Dr. Yusim explains how connection to a higher power can measurably improve mental and physical health, how to have authentic spiritual experiences without religion, and the 2 ways to manifest—including which one actually works (and which one most people get wrong). Dr. Yusim breaks down: - How spirituality, meditation, and manifestation can change your physiology, mood, & nervous system - What it really means to raise your frequency & how to do it - Unconscious reprogramming to break old patterns - Why surrender opens the door to creative solutions - How to overcome victim mentality while balancing personal responsibility & external circumstances - Breaking intergenerational cycles of self-sabotage using family constellation therapy - How to tell when family conflict can be healed, and when boundaries are necessary - How to protect yourself from energy vampires Dr. Yusim also explores the mystical edges of psychology, and where science draws the line: - 3 types of intuition & 4 intuitive pathways for receiving extrasensory information - Similarities and differences between psychics and schizophrenia, and how information is received in each case - Telepathy as heightened intuition that anyone can access (& whether they should) - Where spiritual practices fit inside a Western psychiatric model - How she clinically distinguishes between healthy intuitive experiences & serious mental health conditions that require treatment We also discuss: - How after-death communication through psychic mediums can help people process grief (and when it becomes unhealthy) - Crown Reading vs Third Eye Reading - Whether everyone has spirit guides or guardian angels - The psychic reading that shifted Dr. Yusim’s life path - Karmic patterns & the soul’s repeating lessons - How to tap into your Higher Self - Universal truths across all spiritual & religious traditions - How psychedelics help process trauma - Why the Law of Attraction may not be working for you - Why some people can train themselves to hold their breath for extraordinary lengths of time This episode is the bread & butter of MBB, bridging psychiatry, spirituality, intuition, trauma, & healing, without bypassing science or mental health! --- 00:00 - Intro 05:29 - Spirituality, Intuition, & Mental Health 17:53 - How Manifestation can Change Your Physiology, Mood, & Nervous System 30:46 - Unconscious Reprogramming: How to Break Old Patterns 36:56 - Balancing Self-Blame & Responsibility 37:10 - Family Constellation Therapy: Breaking Intergenerational Cycles 41:53 - How to Protect Yourself from Energy Vampires 45:19 - 4 Intuitive Pathways for Receiving Extrasensory Info 57:43 - Types of Intuition & Developing Intuitive Skills 01:04:20 - Mediumship & Connecting with Loved Ones 01:13:15 - Does Everyone Have Spirit Guides or Guardian Angels? 01:16:02 - How to Tap into Your Higher Self 01:18:18 - Dr. Yusim's Life-Changing Mediumship Experience 01:29:47 - The Power of Psychedelics in Healing 01:39:37 - The Spiritual Significance of Fasting 01:43:03 - Proactive vs. Reactive Growth 01:46:20 - Why the Law of Attraction May Not be Working for You --- Check Out Odoo, The all-in-one platform to manage your business by visiting https://www.odoo.com/r/J4l Go to https://www.shopremi.com/BREAK and use code BREAK at checkout for 50% off Start your new morning ritual & get up to 43% off your @MUDWTR with code BREAK at https://www.mudwtr.com/BREAK #mudwtrpod --- Listen on our website: https://www.bialikbreakdown.com​​ Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6TgOe2poCdpZtQwKetQmU1 Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mayim-bialiks-breakdown/id1546456269 Check out our Merch: https://shop.bialikbreakdown.com/ Sign up for our Newsletter: https://www.bialikbreakdown.com​​ Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bialikbreakdown/ Find Dr. Anna Yusim: Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/DrAnnaYusim Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/annayusim Dr. Anna Yusim’s book, Fulfilled: How the Science of Spirituality Can Help You Live a Happier, More Meaningful Life: https://annayusim.com/book/ Learn more about Dr. Yusim’s psychiatry & coaching sessions: https://annayusim.com/ If interested in partnerships please contact mbb.sponsor@impacttheory.com Theme Song Written, Produced, and Performed by Ed Robertson.

But 40 years and more than 7,000 brain surgeries later, he concluded that reason and free will do not reside in the brain. In this episode, he reveals what he’s found. “Neuroscience is just fundamentally wrong in a lot of ways … because of the materialist bias in neuroscience. We can't get away from this machine analogy, [but] we're not machines, and we don't work like machines work. And there's overwhelming evidence in neuroscience for the existence of a soul,” he says. Dr. Egnor is a professor of neurosurgery and pediatrics at Stony Brook University, a senior fellow at the Discovery Institute, and the co-author of the book “The Immortal Mind: A Neurosurgeon's Case for the Existence of the Soul.” Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times. 💛 Support us 👉https://donorbox.org/american-thought-leaders ------------------------------------------------- © All Rights Reserved.

What if you aren’t what you think you are?
