Freedom Comes from Awareness

In this podcast Eckhart answers questions from an audience in
Hawaii. A man asks if we actually have “free will.” Eckhart
explains we won’t experience “free will” while living on the
level of ego, because we are conditioned by the past. He believes
until we transcend our past, we are at the mercy of our
unconscious patterns. A woman who is a therapist and works with
trauma survivors, asks how to deal with her resentment at God for
the abuse her clients suffer. She questions how can God allow
such awful things to happen? Eckhart says this view of God is
actually a misconception. He goes on to explain that humans are
in the process of awakening and suffering is part of our
evolution.
