The End of Suffering

In this episode Eckhart answers questions about suffering as part
of the human condition. He says many spiritual traditions focus
on awakening as the end of suffering. Paradoxically, Eckhart says
we need to go through a certain amount of suffering to realize we
don’t want it anymore. He says oftentimes our suffering is caused
not by our life situation, but our reaction to it.  He
believes much of our pain is generated by the mind and its toxic
narrative. Eckhart says we can move beyond suffering by embracing
life’s challenges. He says they are a doorway into the
transcendent realm and that when we step into the light of
consciousness, we are free from suffering at last.
