This video maybe from a while ago but it was like a soul hug for me today... Thank you...

[joytowse]

Thank you, Thank you!
I have been a student of non-dual for two years now and felt that all my past years of metaphysical studies where folly, but Matt enabled me to better understand that it is all just part of our path. Nothing is a waste of time as you follow where your internal teacher guides you. Most helpful, thank you again!

[swtantra]

Another great interview by Rick!
Thanks Rick... and great to meet this amazing teacher.
Shanti Om.

[gimariemarchese]

Matt Kahn,
Thank you SO much for sharing your experience. I've had a similar experience growing up, and it's beautiful to hear you share.

[nomadicat]

I loved that interview... and Matt is such a generous love bubble..thankyou!!

[birdofafeatherami]

It appears that everything I experience good or bad is an attunement. Thank you for this awesome interview!

[MrDrofinnah]

"Buddha at the Gas Pump" pleases me because it shows more and more that the "LIGHT" is spreading... the "TRUTH" shall set us free...

[michaelthielmann]

Much love to Matt and Rick! Looking forward to speaking with Matt for the Road to Realization program.

[janestill]

Been waiting for months to hear this integration which seems to be evolving nicely through the sequence of your interviews Rick! This is so helpful to me and resonates and clarifies - many thanks for such great work!

[obieone]

I've been sending "I Love You's" everyday all day and "Oh I didn't realize it was so simple". *-) It works and I Thank You With Love.

[smittaz]

The freedom from understanding, wanting to understand is divine too and thats the key to "letting go"..

[metaknowledge]

I like the dude. I've watched a few of his presentations and he resonates with me. Any faults we find in others are really our own short comings.

[ajurchek]

honestly, If your going to walk into any experience with expectations your not going to glean anything positive that is not within your set of expectations. In a sense Matt Kahn is giving in to complete vulnerability by offering his perspective and life learned lessons to anyone who is interested. God bless him. if your not interested look elsewhere. In principal, It's quite cheap and irrelevant for anyone to criticize his ideas and perspectives as a third party.

[johnnywlittle]

I do find Matt has a sense of grandiosity or "specialness", however subtle, that's attached to his persona where he enjoys being the transmitter of knowledge, frequency holder, channeler etc, ....where all come to him.
He implies none of that exists for him but it just doesn't jive.

That said, I find him an interesting guy with a unique perspective. Actually many unique perspectives which have helped me in my path.

I consider him one of my many teachers. Also I dig his latest 1st wave prophecy thing where he gives a very specific date in 2015.
It's ballsy, ....also I have a feeling he's right.

[bellesativa]

I first heard about Matt through this very video at BATGAP and has since followed him on his own channel and gone to one of his seminars, purchased his teleseminars. Most recently got his new book. But now it's time to step away. His YouTube channel bans any critical comments (I questioned his bestseller status based on pre-orders and campaign for multiple purchases in the hundreds of copies) - I was banned and once you're banned, that's it, even positive posts get hidden. But I keep getting notices from You Tube of other commenters who whether they know it or not are also banned from public view so I know I'm not alone. That's why everything on his channel is so positive. I still like Matt but he has surrounded himself by a team of aggressive censors and marketers. So many of his 100% 5 star Amazon reviews are NOT from verified purchasers. It feels unreal and like he says a different timeline. I was introduced to Matt here so it seems appropriate to share what I feel after all the years following him.

[jasalernoful]

It came to me when I was watching this interview that when Matt was talking about there is only just seeing it reminded me of something Bernadette Roberts said.

[fcmiller]

What's he keep looking up to at to his left? Curious...what's over there?

[zenobiasaafan]

I love your program it is inspiring but I need a help I have nojob

[meghan]

I get your meaning, but is he actually saying that he is special in some way, or is he just relating his own personal experience? Can it be true that neither you nor I are 'special'? While we are all one, so is the snow and yet, every single flake that descends has its own particular pattern that has never existed before and will never exist again. That which is, is infinitely creative and new. The unkown is a mystery. He said as much.

[solarflarewithin]

So many comments about money? Why shouldn't teachers and healers get paid? Everyone else gets paid for their skills. There are people who volunteer and are still supported in some way financially. There are people who like to get paid. Doctors perform miracles and they get paid. Others kinds of teachers get paid. The use of money is a social habit that we're all participating with to some degree. Matt and others teachers who charge have many videos that we enjoy for free.
