IN FILTH IN SHALL BE FOUND

A story of surviving cancer and faith in God

Shmoozin' with DOVID'L WEINBERG about how he recently overcame cancer (T Cell Lymphoma) and the affect this experience had on his relationship with God and others.

There was a saying in medieval alchemy that went like this: "In filth shall it be found". Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961), the renowned Swiss psychiatrist, psychoanalyst and philosopher, later expounded on this rather disturbing expression to our 21st century ears, that what we most want to find in our lives will be found in the places where we least want to look.  During our shmooze, my much loved (by me and many many others), inspirational and wise friend, teacher and fellow spiritual traveller referenced this deeply profound piece of wisdom highlighting the somewhat ironic idea that in darkness we humans can discover the greatest light - something that dramatically occurred to Reb Dovid'l during his treatment of the disease.    *** SOCIAL MEDIA *** Please be awesome and SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube Channel and LIKE/FOLLOW @shmoozinpodcast on Facebook to watch, listen and learn from the fantastic and inspirational guests I am looking forward to welcoming into the studio. ___________________________________________________________
