How Not Coveting Could Change the World

There are a few things we all share that no one should try to take away. A look at a deeper meaning for a well known spiritual principle through Swedenborg's lens.

Love his videos!!!

[hopingtobewheatnotatare]

Either this kid is one of the most intelligent religious people I have ever seen or he is the fastest TelePrompTer readers I have ever seen...either way, he sure has found his calling...cause he's VERY good at these

Greeting from Italy. I am reading through Swedenborg's writings and they are just so full of interest to me!!  You are so lucky to live in a place where his writings are taught.

Mind blowing explanations, if we could practice reducing thoughts and feelings of coveting to love of service reducing suffering in others the earth would be a better place.
Thanks Curtis

I really enjoyed this video. Is there videos on the other commandments? I'd love to see a series on all the commandments pulled apart like this. Love your work Curtis. And before you go all humble on me and say it's all Swedenborg - actually no, it's you! You are deciphering that stuff. Swedenborg's stuff can be a hard slog, but you break it down and present it in this bite sized, easily digestible minute. Very cool :)

Loved this one a lot! Natural laws are far more accurate than anything I ever learned from an outside source. I don't know all the natural laws but it doesn't matter because the ones I'm sure about, lead to a better grasp on all the laws as a whole, I guess somewhat instinctively.... Fantastic Curtis-well done once again my friend!

[nancylindman]

such a totally effective little video, makes me want to stand up and cheer...and brings me to tears for the beauty of the inner sense of this commandment. So wonderful to have this opened up so perfectly.

Amazing! I love the bible's figurative speech!

i just had a little "awakening" on the subject.. wow..ty ❤

[HaddytheCreator]

best use of 4 minutes and 36 seconds ever. I wish this was required viewing for all humans. I think a lot of people do these things because they are taught, how to be successful in sales, marketing etc. I never put manipulation in with coveting, but it makes sense. Great information and delivery. I loved this.

[raymartvergara]

Your metacognition is so great, I really really learn so much, Thank you :)

I love injecting perspective to give new meaning and life to what we previously perceived as mundane or 'done already'. Keep em comin'

[maryvalentine]

Amen Cutis!!! Coveting and envying and wishing for other than I have is a huge trap I have found. I hear it when I think "if only..." - then I know I am wishing for other than I have, or how my life was back then, or imagining some other person has so much more of every good thing. I'm really watching out for this trap and love hearing an extensive break down of its correspondences. Thank you very much! Blessings to you all ❤️

I would love to share my thoughts on every video, if I had the text space and the time. Unfortunately, I don't have either. But, I can say that I would definitely recommend you to speak at TEDTalks if I had any authority in it (which I don't). But, you're ideas are brilliant enough that they are worth spreading. 

In all honesty, I think you're on the brink of something pretty incredible. Having come from a history (in my life) where I believed the Bible was a bunch of hogwash (what force can create the universe, the earth, and life in seven days? for example), I see now through your work and through Swedenborg that there is a deeper meaning that conventional wisdom seems to miss. Thank you!

I wish there was a Swedenborg dictionary with all the biblical correspondences

[bentoleal]

As always, Curtis, very insightful - thank you

[mouseen]

Great video once again, I wonder what religious group you are affiliated with, I think what you spoke about coveting can be applied to all religions. Thank you for your wonderful insight, I was raised religious, I am no longer but I agree that certain commandments from God are important, and as you explain it, it seems much clearer than I initially thought. So thank you once again. also you could be a motivational speaker.

.Curtis this is what I was talking about why I don't ever read the Bible. It's out of date it's been rewrote several times. Not all of it but whom I to tell what parts have and have not been it's like guessing what is right and what is not. Thank you for shedding a little light on what I have Artie thought. I definite like the definition it's something I can understand and relate to. God knows I certainly have messed up a few of those commandments that I do understand. But this particular one gets used on me a lot. Thank you your friend Chris

I always love your videos, Curtis, but this one felt especially meaningful and moving to me. Thank you sooo much for the time, effort, courage and insight you demonstrate. More please. :)
