What I love about Eckhart is that he offers wisdom on multiple levels. Thank you, dear teacher.
Agreed, the pain body awareness stuff can be life changing.
Ensure you apply the wisdom , I see idolatry often the teacher is not important he's not trying to be either you probably know this but saying just incase
Schöne Grüße aus Düsseldorf Herr Tolle. Sie sind wirklich toll, Ihre Videos haben mir in meiner Weiterentwicklung sehr geholfen. Lieben Dank dafür ❤
Im the kind of person that needs to listen to or read eckharts words regularly. I recognise this means theres much i need to let go of.
I have been following the teachings of Eckhart Tolle since 2013 after going through a shocking and painful divorce at 27 years-old, which shook "my world" and reality as I knew it. All of a sudden, I was alone in the US, without family and friends - I had very little emotional support and had to learn how to rebuild "my life" on my own. The loneliness and disorientation I felt were intense, Eckhart Tolle's teachings was all I had, so I leaned into it heavily, listening to it every day in my solitude and finding comfort in his voice and in the truth I sensed in his teachings. 9 years later, after a difficult journey of uncovering a lot of unconsciousness (the divorce was just the beginning) my life has transformed - I remarried a wonderful man who is kind, loving, patient and we practice spirituality and work on our unconsciousness together, I have started my dream and vision of becoming a spiritual wellbeing coach with a focus on Eckhart's teachings, and my dream of moving to Portugal is finally coming true. I don't want to focus on the "outer layer" only and don't want to give the impression that life is now perfect, we all know this is not the nature of reality. There is still unconsciousness, but more often than not I am aware of it shortly after, so I'm able to let go and not create suffering. I continue to practice presence since I know anything I experience in the world of form is temporary and will eventually dissolve - I want to be cautious not to develop strong attachments to the world of form after manifesting the life that I always wanted. I felt the truth in my bones in everything that Eckhart teaches, but to have put it to the test (how he says it himself), and to now experience and see the truth for myself has been transformational - it has deepened my presence and trust in it, and it is incredibly liberating to feel connected to source throughout normal daily life. Thank you, Eckhart.. I am infinitely and forever grateful for your teachings

Thank you for sharing your story with us!
Thank you for sharing your inspirational story with us ☺️
Thank you, I enjoyed your comment.
I too found myself very alone here, with a similar story and I listen to Eckharts understandings and spiritual wisdom. I listen to others with similar views too.
In a diverse world it is good to develop my own views and not to just follow a crowd and buy into everything i see and hear. Aloneness is a gift.
Aloneness helps us to deeply discover who we are, our thoughts thinking, habits, interests, skills, knowledge, courage. Loneliness/grieving is normal, we genuinely miss others and things yet it is an open door where we can take what we've learned and who we have become to use it positively.
At first we feel stuck until you get your shoes on to walk a new path.
Yes it's scary. We might procrastinate at first.
You are a good example of what you can find in a new life. I send good vibrations to you and your future.
Thank you for sharing your story, beautiful in it's every way
With your guidance, the negative thoughts are lessening. Thank you, Eckhart. Have a wonderful day...to all! 😊💜
The trick is being genuinely grateful for both positive and negative experiences. That’s the fastest route to transcendence.
Transcendence? 🙄
@@mavis3916 - …your energy is not good. Go within another 25 years.
@@JFairhart cringe
Not really I find it much easier to be mindful than to force myself to feel grateful for negative or even positive things.
Two all time humans brain 🧠 condition
I'm immediately filled with love and peace every time I get to listen to Eckhart Tolle. ❤
Me too. Haven't been listening much lately, but really enjoyed this wisdom from Ekhart.
@patsy6589 how are you doing now? Have you been listening to him?
"Don't get drawn into that [conspiracies in the world etc) - your job is to be present" 💗
"Your job is to be present. Your job is to embody a different state of consciousness. You cannot fight unconsciousness on its own level. You have to rise above unconsciousness."
"Gratitude implies a deep appreciation of what you are perceiving around you."
Thank you.
“The past has no power over the present moment.” ~ Eckhart Tolle 🙏😊
So true, but so hard to truly live by.
Neither future
"You can't fight unconsciousness on it's own level.."
Very true in my experience, at least if you wish to avoid violence.
How does this apply to the conspiraties that might be true? I listen to Russel Brand sometimes, but I feel sometimes like he is going on the path of fighting unconsiousness at it's own level. Should we just not delve into conspiracies? I don't know what to read, watch or believe these days....such confusing times.
Fear, anger, resentment, and stress are poisons you create in your mind. If you take charge of your mind, you can create a chemistry of blissfulness ❤❤
I like this 👆🤜🤛👍👍👌
Alfi writes: "...If you take charge of your mind, you can create a chemistry of blissfulness"
perspicaciouscritic responds: "Or, more accurately, 'a chemistry of awareness.'"
Only thing i would say Alfi is, its not actually us who create it but its our minds that create it for us. The good news is we have a choice whether to believe our minds thoughts and suffer or to accept none of our minds thoughts are real leaving us free to live in peace and happiness, and leaving the mind free to sort out its own fears and anxieties 🙏🙏🙏🙏.
Well said
Tolle don't say take charge? Chemistry of bliss? I'd leave the wisdom to Mr tolle buddy
I'm glad to see that I already experienced the main change in my thoughts from negative to appreciative. Sometimes in the moments of hight stress I still react negatively, but literally two minutes after the first reaction comes this learned appreciation and I accept both what happened and my reaction by fully embracing it in my attention. I didn;t think that paying attention if an act of gratitude but it is so obvious now!
Indeed soonie. If you find yourself laughing at your ego/mind after a negative reaction, it is a good sign that consciousness is awakening, and the identification with the ego/mind is being left behind...
@@CitrusSimon ☺️🙏
Accept of what is
Trust what will be
And be grateful for everything
This is my personal recipe for peace and happiness, and of course freedom from the minds fears, worries and anxieties. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
That’s awesome! I have occasionally been on a positive rant. Example:"Wouldn’t it be great if --- happened? And then --- would happen, and then everyone would get along and the world would be a better place? That would be so cool!"
@@chickadeeacres3864 oh that’s sounds like a nice manifestation 😉😊
Negativty becomes an addiction so easily, but positivity, especially in the form of gratitude, brings me closer to the "beyond all thoughts", very empowering!
Oh wow. Eckhart was definitely meant to be someone I found in life. I suffered from severe anxiety and mainly ocd Andy life has changed so much already. I don’t feel like I have to end my life anymore over misunderstanding and dooming myself with what ifs and things that weren’t even as bad as they had to be. I today heard a part of the video about gratitude and so I was obsessively thanking the universe and I swear I heard in my head that I should just be present and the thank you will come naturally but I wasn’t listening . I finished the video and Eckhart just said exactly what I heard. It felt like him reminding me . I know I was meant to find him and learn this. Thank you for your story and. You e changed my life for the better.
Positive thought doesn't liberate you.
You need to go beyond thoughts.
Practice presence and gratitude.
Thanks Eckhart. 7 October 2022.🦆🐛🦋🐦🌷🌴🕊🐧🌹🌿🐘
"Beyond all thoughts..." quote EckartTolle...Nothing is more beautiful than this ....❤️So grateful...,💓🙏
Never think again?😁
I started watching your videos a few weeks ago and your insight is transformative. The pain of the last few decades of my life is melting away. I have always been looking for ways to be more productive and functional- I never dreamed that I would find a teacher on UA-cam, of all places, who could show me the road to deep happiness.
Thank you Eckhart
Have you read his Book called , " The Power of Now??" If not read it or listen to audio book. 😘💞💨
Kudos to you 😌
@@kimberlysmith7311 Thank you for the tip- his book will reinforce all these positive changes. We are so blessed to have Eckhart’s videos to pass through the generations, nothing beats that interpersonal dialogue and his real life demonstration of how to embrace each moment of our existence.
"you cannot fight unconsciousness on its same level" - so great 😀
I trust God to help me increase my compassion and my ability to forgive myself and others. I also ask him to help me remember that things happen FOR me, not TO me, and that I am here to fulfill a divine purpose on my soul path.
My husband is a conspiracy theorist in the most extreme way. It has completely taken him over. Eckhart’s advice … “You cannot fight unconsciousness on its own level. You have to rise above unconsciousness.” … has to be a daily sermon for me.
I am most grateful for your wisdom. 🙏🏼💓
Hi Uma, i feel for you because its not easy being around people who's thoughts are running and ruining their own lives and also inflicting unhappiness on those around them. I think its alway worth trying to remember the conspiracy theorists are the conditioned victims of their conditioners, much like those who are conditioned by some religious groups to only believe what they have been told to believe. When i talk to either conspiracy or religious victims of conditioning i always ask them in a non confrontational way " is this a thought or a fact?". Sometimes this gentle questioning can lead to the poor victim conceding what they have been told to believe is actually just someone elses belief and not actually a fact and can push the door of reason very marginally open for them and eventually lead to them regaining the ability to think critically and logically once again. Best wishes to you both 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Please don't use the word conspiracy theorist for someone with other ideas, it's very judgemental. I agree with eckhart that we shouldn't lose ourselves in any ideology (also not the governmental views or propaganda!) but we should liaten to each other if we really want to know the truth instead of following blindly what others say rather than judging someone just because he has other views! There are very reasonable people who believe you cannot not trust the government and who can neatly edplain why, we shouldn't be arrogant and start prosecuting dissidents, we should be vigualant towars those in power, it's our job as citizens. Everyone needs to do their own investigation but people just choose the easy road. Devide and co nquer tactiques never went away. But when people have bacis comfort they believe anything, that's how easy it is to buy people! Another thing which is complete nonsense is the idea that all those who distrust the governmental vaccination campaign all think the earth is flat (which doesn't make sense, there is no foundation for this theory) but just look hiw easy it was to exclude dissenters, shame on thise who were happy to discriminate their neighbours, their families friends etc just based on the fact that they had other ideas. That's what Eckhart Tolle meant with total madness and it should never happen again!!
@@johngreen4683 the problem with people is that they think they are right onstead of listening to others and try to learn something. What makes you think that the government's opinion is the right one or superior, nobody holds the truth! We should all be investigative instead of judging each other, evolve!
@@elisabethcrokaerts1980 hi Elisabeth, where do you stand on the moon landings, fact or fake? Where do stand on vaccines? Where do you stand on a secret deep state that Donald Trump is fighting? I only ask because i am trying to establish what alternatives to main stream beliefs you yourself disagree with. I know you are not a believer of a flat earth but what is it you believe we are being lied to about? Please 🙏
“ Thoughts are pointers to that which is beyond thought “❤
Theres nothing wrong with toughts, unless they are coming from your lower self and you let them rule you. Toughts comming from a connection with Higher Self are the way to go
A beautiful voice of sanity in an increasingly insane world x
I've been enjoying Eckhart's teachings since 1997 and still can't get enough.
"You cannot fight unconsciousness over it's own level, you have to RISE above consciousness" perfect...but not Easy 🙏💟🌠
The best teacher in the world Thankyou Eckhart Tolle ♥️
I believe in conspiracies (what you might call 'conspirituality') but I agree with not to get lost in them, instead working towards making the world a better place, as it is in creating A New Earth and creating a new system that will make the old one redundant, therefore bringing in the light as opposed to fighting the darkness.
Thank you for being you, Eckhart Tolle
You realize you were trapped in your thought process. Now you awake from your thought process.👍🐧🌹
Good thoughts are better than bad thoughts. But eventually good thoughts are only pointing the way to presence (no thought).😇🐌🐛
Appreciate life through presence. You don't need to convince yourself to appreciate life.
Gratitude is a good way to start. It's a deep appreciation of presence in everything around you (objects, light, air, water, etc.).🐛🦋🐦🌷🌴
Let gratitude become a spiritual attitude. You don't even have to say thank you.🌹🌿🐘🎯🍁
Thanks Eckhart. 8 October 2022.💖🐢🐧🌹🌿🍁🌷🌴
Gratitude is super powerful. If you want to use the power of skin in the game, I recommend charity. Consciously chosen charity. That's gratitude on steroids and it really transforms your fears into abundant joy.
Thnx God for Mr. eckhart 🙏❤️
Eckhart was the first person who got me asking about the evolutionary role of 'thinking, ' that our species may be evolving towards no longer needing it. Yet, since it is part of our experience, how lovely to gain sufficient awareness to observe 'thinking', without identifying with the content?
I could not sleep and found this video because Ekhart usually helps to fall asleep. And I feel so grateful that this night I can just lay and listen to him. I have recently met a new amazing friend and I feel like it’s because I try to be grateful every day. It’s a gift from God)
"You cannot fight unconsiousness on its own level. You have to rise above unconsciousness."
Perceiving through presence. ❤
Christ rises from within❤
Oh how wonderfully wonderful you are /make me feel Eckhard❤
Thank you million times 🫶🏽✨💜🎶🙌🏽
Thank you, Eckhart😘
Beautiful breakdown of thoughts and patterns and how they affect you and can Infect you if you are not paying attention.
Thank you 🙏🙏 Big inner smile Eckhart Tolle🌹
return to that which is beyond thought 🙏
Wonderful 💜🥰 thank you 🌸
Thank you Eckhart, I feel much better now after listening to you X
Although I am very appreciative for Eckhart Tolle's sharing his wisdom, I would be just as appreciative if the waterfall endings would be its own video. I could Zen out on that scene, alone, for minutes on end.
The gratitude for something isn't the point -- the point is giving your attention to that thing. I want to remember that!
What I find interesting, is that he says "when you become aware of your thinking habits, you are awakening." Because I became aware of my thinking much before I was meditating or doing any stuff like this. But I was having an extreme change in my life.
In my opinion and experience 99% of the thoughts we get are very repetitive and habit based, mostly based on what we have taken an interest in previously be that a fear, belief, hope or ambition. Luckily for us thoughts are just thoughts and absolutely none of them need to be thought about. It took me an awful long time to be able practice not worry about my thoughts but simply chose to think about what i wished to think about. I still get loads of unwanted repetitive thoughts but the difference is i hardly ever choose to think about the ones i don't enjoy, (unless I'm really tired, when i can momentarily slip back into old bad thinking habits again) 🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@johngreen4683excellent. How long did it take for you to work on noticing your thoughts and get into the habit
@@deegirl6994 Hi dee, I just observed my thoughts and gradually noticed how the thoughts I was experiencing today I'd experienced yesterday and he day before too. I now understand and accept thoughts are simply internal background noise like sounds are external background noise. Nice and happy thoughts are live birds singing or children playing, and unenjoyable thoughts are like someone digging up the road or drilling a hole, either way it's all just noise not of our making 🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@johngreen4683 thank you for the wonderful explanation. 🙏🙏💐💐🙂🙂
@@deegirl6994 you are very welcome dee, we are all stronger together by sharing than we are on our own and suffering 🙏. Happy thoughts? ,, they are just nice background noise we are free to enjoy, while fearful thoughts, they are just unhappy background noise we are free to let pass without our interest or attention 🙏🙏🙏
The nicest thing about Eckhart is that not only he is beautifully slow, but he actually looks like a turtle haha...please don't take this comment as an offense...I love Eckhart...is just that, to me, he really resembles a turtle and I find that amusing...he makes me think about a character of The Neverending Story novel called Morla, the ancient one...it is kind of a sad and grumpy character, in wich I think it differs quite a lot from Eckhart, but is also considered to be the wisest being in the world of Fantasia...and that kind of connects to this guy...and the name Morla (just the name, not the character), in turn, reminds me of the Moiras, the mithological sisters responsible for the fate of gods and men
I think all people resemble some type of animal if you study their features long enough! Btw, have you ever looked straight into a turtles little face? They are absolutely adorable!😊❤️
Yes! He is like a turtle! A magical one that dives deep, deep into the magical realms, and moves so slowly because he is totally identified with the present moment.
🤣❤
Yes, pretty much a cute lovely turtle 🐢,who can live over thousand years 😏
i realize that the answers are within i had that believe that we don't have to say thank you out loud or as a thought grattitude is a feeling rather from within i guess, i am new to all of this so i am learning all of this through guidance and inner guidance aswell Eckhart Tolle has teached me so many things that i really needed to learn he really have helped a lot with his knowledge Thank You Eckhart ❤
Thank you indeed! Your knowing is impressive and way above mine yet paradoxically, when you speak, I listen and I understand! It’s kinda magic. Thank You, you wonderful human being x
Thank You Eckhart ❤
Gracias Sr Eckhart por éste vídeo, muy bien explicado, me creerá si le digo que cuando se anuncia un nuevo video de usted, prefiero verlo y escucharlo antes de tomar mis alimentos, claro antes ya recé mis oraciones. !! Saludos y bendiciones
thank you so much, beautifully spoken.
I love the way you are able to describe coping strategies, the minds, heart and intuitive dynamics ..... with one self and others🙏
Eckhart Tolle is totally right - as usual. Its always such a pleasure to listen to him.
A real peace message! ❤️ Thank you Sir
Thank you for the love and grace.🙏💞
So profound is Eckharts wisdom, we are so blessed being his students ❤
Your teachings are opening the eyes! ❤
Thank you Eckhart 🙏❤️🙏
Thank you Eckhart ♥️✨
I love Eckart and have gotten so much from insight and help from The Power Of Now, and other of his books. While I agree something like Hitler’s Germany could be likened to a mad/mass mental obsession akin to a mass physical illness, it didn’t just go away, or run it’s course. It was crushed at great cost of life, because it had to be, or would have continued to spread.
Thank🙏 you Eckhart..
This is the very best of common sense I seen put into words .. brilliant and validating
A wonderfully delivered message 🙏♥️
So called positive thoughts such as:
Im good at my job
Im very spiritual
Im more intelligent than most
... are not necessarily positive. They can be ego, identification with forms.
They are actually more egoistic thoughts than positive thoughts. There are gratification and consciousness in positive thoughts but in your examples there are pretty unconscious. So just don't mix them.
Positive or negative, they are still just thoughts. Obviously nice thoughts are much more enjoyable than anxious thoughts but in reality thoughts don't equal facts 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you eckhart for your teaching
Thank You for this true.
❤️ Such a wonderful message
I look at this and have hope for the world
Brilliant of you thanks for Serving ❤

negative thoughts good for survival before, in old times, to be aware of danger, but not so much now. positive thoughts serve no survival, only to feel good
Ah ha moment. You explained our now. Thank you. I have a better tool to help through this understanding.
Limerence is obsessive positive thoughts. I struggle with them!
pointers to beyond thought
Automatic Negative Thoughts=ANT create more ants that create colonies. Dr. Amens talked of this. The importance of controlling thoughts to go the positive route is more healthy. The body prefers this. Thank you for your words.
I Am everywhere that is
I Am nowhere that isn't
There’s an epidemic of adult children cutting off their parents, going no contact, hundreds of people who thought they did their best, now have everything thrown in their faces.
Dear Eckhart
Jumping happend for me but after 40 months I still should have worked and donot know when I will release completely
Best wishes
Amir
I have a lot of negative thoughts but I just can't shake them.
Go somewhere when you feel like it, where it’s easy to be at peace, like a forest or sitting in your car. Create your own gaps and forgive yourself if it does not work „in real life“. Then see what that calmness might resonate with and take it from there.
Try to practice breathing deep conscious breaths when the feelings come. Observe how you are feeling and reacting each time it happens.
Breath deeply again. Agknowlege it.
Repeat as necessary. It's helped me! Good luck.
Keep listening to Eckart...
And who know which tought is negative And which Positive?Just Ego...So?
Je rêve d'écouter la version française 🙏😇
