    For all who haven't figured it out as yet. This is a man who went into the belly of Hollywood and didn't sell his soul. Terrance is on another level
  • @chadpage7019

  • @Chris_Generalz
    There’s no crazier feeling than knowing deep down you are on the verge of something groundbreaking. He must feel like a lighthouse looking for lost ships

    Get this guy on a Joe Rogan podcast with Neil deGrasse Tyson
  • @zjfamusbeatz
    Didn't know Terrence Howard was this brilliant 😂😂😂
  • This Man Is Genius!!! The flower of life is Created By Frequencies. IF you take a small Bluetooth and set a metal round Pizza pan on top of it, then sprinkle salt all over the pan, turn a frequency on over the Bluetooth, the salt will begin to rearrange it's form into the the flower of Life... its very satisfying to watch different frequencies and how they can change things from the inside out and the outside in..
  • @robsmith1362
    Terrance has transcended Hollywood and is on a completely different plane of existence.. I wish EVERYONE could stop being so close-minded and understand how unique/true this is.

  • @jonjon7951
    This man is beyond intelligent. Blew my mind. Thanks
  • @leojay60
    If this man was a professor, I would have actually shown up to class.
  • @mulisaurus
    It's crazy how it has taken 6 years for this to reach me. In my social media "world", its just blowing up, for both good and not so good reasons. I've always enjoyed his work on the screen just never knew this side of him. I always had hoped he would of had his day on screen because he is a wondeful actor. They really threw him under the bus. Now I'm beginning to understand he is far more than that and then some. Thank you for sharing this Mr Howard and Oxford Union.
  • @steved372
    I've never ever had a problem with my 30 minute lunch break at work until today! Cannot wait to continue watching this.
  • As a kid in school I'd draw circles with a compass in the back pages of my books from top to bottom just to see if all lines crossed at the same point not knowing of this flower of life and the significance. I'm 56 years old now and never knew how important this is. I always thought that I was pretty good at maths but I have to say that I take my hat off to Terence Howard, he has a great mind and it all makes sense now. Brainstorm.
  • @theduke6174
    Who's here after that red-carpet interview? Why didn't we see this coming...
  • @EDM-Jigger
    Bro, it is crazy how people took his clips with missing context and uploaded it to make him seem crazy and I literally bought into it before actually watching the whole thing. and then realizing he brings up some very valid points. and made sense. for like the whole entire lecture.
  • I always knew there was something special about this man. I could see it in his eyes. This is remarkable. Thank you.❤❤❤
  • You're telling me the Oxford didn't have another projector I feel like they were trying to make him look stupid by not letting him do his full presentation but he still nailed it so Amen for not selling your soul He actually seems like one of the good ones
