Oz has been influenced by many people, including the ideas of the Swedish scientist, philosopher, and Christian theologian Emanuel Swedenborg. He recently wrote in Spirituality and Health Magazine that “As I came into contact with Swedenborg’s many writings, I began to understand Swedenborg’s profound insights and how they applied directly to my life.” He mentions Swedenborg’s ideas that marriage lasts to eternity, everyone has a purpose in this world, God is love, and Swedenborg’s answers to “Why do bad things happen?” He is an investigator in Energy Medicine (i.e. meditative medicine, not to be mistaken with metabolic sciences).
