Growing Up and Waking Up

OPRAH AND ECKHART TOLLE
About this episode
Eckhart discusses the path to awakening. He says there are two stages to a person’s life: waking up and growing up.  Many start to awaken, only to later discover large parts of their personality lag behind; they haven’t really grown up. To reach maturity Eckhart says spiritual practice must encompass all of who we are and become an integral part of our daily lives.
