0:00 31:11

In this podcast, Eckhart talks about how difficult life circumstances often trigger awakening. Whether it’s a life-threatening disease, loss of a loved one or break up of a marriage he says pain is the touchstone to all spiritual growth. Eckhart says many people eventually become grateful for their problems because without them they would not evolve. Eckhart also describes it as liberation from the burden of oneself. When the hard shell of the ego cracks open, we discover a realm of consciousness we haven’t known before.
