Forgiving Our Unconsciousness

In this podcast, Eckhart talks briefly about what he calls the
beingness behind our five senses which lead to the deeper essence
of who we are. Eckhart then answers a question about forgiveness.
He says until we are strongly connected to our deeper self, all
of us will act out unconscious patterns that cause suffering.
Eckhart says eventually we wake up and ask, “How could I have
done that?” He says recognizing our unconsciousness is
forgiveness. He believes once we realize we can make amends to
those we’ve hurt and learn to forgive our unconsciousness, we
understand that we didn’t have the awareness to make a different
choice at the time.
