The greatest mystery is the mystery of the universe.

In this podcast, Eckhart talks about the awakening universe.

He says, the great miracle and the mystery is that the universe is conscious.

In fact, Eckhart explains that it is a manifestation of consciousness itself,

and we are part of that.

He explains there are millions and billions of other life forms across the galaxies,

but here on Earth, the universe expresses consciousness through us.

He believes, as we grow in awareness, we let go of the limitations of the ego.

We discover we are more than a person with a personality.

Ultimately, we learn to see others just as ourselves.

In Eastern traditions, this is called Mita.

In the West, it's called Love.

Eckhart believes by acknowledging our shared humanity,

we discover all our expressions are part of the one great consciousness.

My digital timer here is at zero.

Let's go.

Time has stopped.

It's still at zero.

Oh, it just turned to one.

To get out of time,

all you have to do is stop thinking and just being present.

That's a vertical dimension then opens up and there is no time.
