Jim Carrey and Spirituality

Jim Carrey is by far one of the funniest and most talented actors in Hollywood today. He's acted in roles only he could take on, and the way he the way he morphs his body or contorts his face on film, is really magnificent and unparalleled. One would think that that's all there is to him- humour, and that he must be a funny guy off screen too.
Just last night someone forwarded me a video of Jim Carrey speaking on the spiritual "awakening" of the world taking place, and I was very surprised to know he read Eckhart Tolle, or even knew who he was! Then today I came across this painting he had recently done and posted on his Twitter page, and was further surprised to know he was an artist too! While there were a lot of negative responses to his piece, as someone who dabbles in art myself, let me tell you, it's not exactly easy to do abstract, and this painting is pretty good! Either way, how many people do you know, who despite being THAT rich and successful, take time out to paint or further any of their hobbies? That's what I thought.
Here are two of his videos that you might find interesting to watch:
