Is anyone else here having an experience where after 10 years of watching/reading/practicing this kind of content it only just now actually made sense where all of a sudden you just feel this rather than just knowing/talking about it??? People told me it might take a few years, didn't realise it'd take me 10 but I guess better late than never 😅
@@WingsofFlight-n5u it is just stillness really. A clear space from which to create beautiful things in your life. Like in the Dao The Ching the concept of Wu Wei is about doing from a place of non-doing. As in, being productive with no judging thoughts in the background, so that all your energy is now freed up to be put into whatever your craft is. In that sense it is liberating and revitalising to have all that energy back that previously the mind consumed by entertaining petty thoughts. That's the distinction that helped me to finally "get it" - it was realising that meditation and thinking and actually taking an active role in life are all one and the same. In that, using the mind to set a nice direction for the future and constructively thinking about what you can do to get there is like an active form of Meditation that results in clarity and congruence between who you want to be and the actions you take on a day to day basis. Through that congruence and certainty comes the contentment that enables more stillness. As for dealing with the past, it was once again using constructive thinking to realise that even though bad things may have happened, the pain I held onto was my attempt at making that situation better by trying to solve it in my mind. But we can't "fix" the past in our minds, so hence the more effective way to make it better is by becoming a better version of myself that isn't held down by the past anymore. This is simply done by replacing that pain with something better that you can do in the present moment such as being optimistic and sharing your gifts with the world. You can't feel 2 things at once, so the only way to make the past better is by replacing it with something new. So finding a resolution for the pain I felt was step 1 because it allowed the space to find stillness. Then, the real key was moving beyond the duality of thinking that meditation is me sitting down in peace, and then resuming my stressful life. Instead, true presence is the ability to feel that calmness that you feel during meditation as the background behind your thinking/doing - and most importantly to be able to retreat back into that stillness whenever the constructive thinking is done. When we stop looking at presence and meditation as a designated practice, and seek to have our whole life become the practice, that's the key to having it permeate every aspect of what we do. Hardest part for me was finding someone who could explain this in a way that made sense, so I just started writing about it on my own and sure enough it made sense eventually, but others may not vibe with this kind of description as these are the words that I found. Hope this helps a bit, this seems to be a subjective journey but the consciousness we find on the other side of that journey seems to be a common experience.
@@WingsofFlight-n5u it's a kind of stillness and calmness from which we can create beautiful things in this world. The most helpful concept was learning about Wu Wei from the Tao Te Ching, where we "do nothing while leaving nothing undone". The way I understood this was by realising that meditation and thinking and being productive are not separate activities. It's not about meditating for 30 minutes and then resuming our stressful existence again. It's about experiencing that stillness while being productive and sharing your gifts with the world, which becomes a very liberating and revitalising kind of experience because all the energy that was previously consumed by petty thoughts is now freed up to be put back into our craft. This act of merging the dualities of action and non action was the key for me. But the journey there also involved using constructive thinking to set a nice direction for the future, and then aligning my day to day actions through self discipline with that future so that I feel congruence between what I'm going in the now, and the life aspire to have. In other words, ignoring important responsibilities wasn't the way into presence for me. It was by taking right action that I found the contentment to deepen that stillness and presence. And further, by merging the joy of what I thought the future would bring with the mundane day to day activities I ironically found joy in the present moment, and realised it was never about the future, but about enjoying what I'm doing now - while contributing to a nice life for myself and my family. As for the past, I had to realise that holding onto the pain was me trying to make it better in my mind. But the past can't be "fixed" by constantly thinking about it, in fact, ruminating does the opposite of fixing anything, it perpetuates it. The hurtful past can only be fixed by replacing that pain with something new. Simply because our brain can't experience two realities at the same time. So by becoming a better version of myself now, and by engaging in right action now to improve my life, the past simply fell away like yesterday's news. And so this really was a process of bridging the duality between day to day activities and the act of being present. As in, being able to think constructively, from that place of stillness. So that it's always in the background, and whenever you realise your mind is now done with thinking and starts to drift, that's when you find that stillness again and continue the next activity from that place. That's how you know you're "there" when you are free to go back "there" whenever you like, or to do whatever you need to do from "that" place. Hardest part was finding the right words that made me understand. I couldn't find them in books so I sat down and wrote about these things on my own until it started to make sense. Next thing i knew a new world opened up for me. Bad habits like alcohol, coffee, and social media started to fall away because they felt wrong in my body. All of a sudden I started to notice synchronicities all around me like the universe giving little signs of encouragement - which were always there but I didn't have the attention to notice. Then the every day activities transformed. For example I was operating an excavator at work, and in my mind was no-thing, but on the outside the work became effortless and a pure expression of creating something beautiful in the world. And once again, the journey of getting here seems to be subjective. But the experience of Being and connecting to the Source seems to be universal and very similar from individual to individual where similar beliefs and thought patterns appear. And the desire to engage in unhealthy habits falls away, because there's no longer that underlying discomfort to try and soothe with something tasty or intoxicating.

No matter how bad I feel I can always feel better by listening to some Eckhart Tolle. The man's a master. I hope everyone watching this finds the same comfort and alignment with fulfillment that I feel. Blessings!
My father came to me in a dream a few months after he passed. I was out of town on business and he was gone by the time I returned. I got to tell him I loved him in my lucid dream. It gave me closure.
Dear Heavenly Father, I come to you today asking for your blessings as a single mom. I’m raising my children with strength and courage, despite the challenges I face with my sons being autistic. Lord as I struggle to pay my rent every month and as I struggle to buy groceries for my children. I ask that you bless me with your wisdom and guidance, as I navigate parenthood on my own heal my lupus and heart disease and continue to give me strength to keep going so I may watch my sons grow into men. ❤
@@gloriouslyaestheticinteresting indeed, i saw it on the last Eckhart's video but it was the same person though, and not exactly the same words. But what do you think would be the goal? I don't see what someone can gain by doing this...?
I played the tenor saxophone for 40 years. I took 35 year break to raise my second family. 3 weeks ago. I started playing again. I have been playing without thinking. I get it! Playing has become my connection to source.
I haven't picked up my guitar for almost 20 years, although I used to play so much that both my children were inspired to be musicians. Your comment has inspired me!
That space or void is being in the zone - where time and space no longer exist - it is just your consciousness connected to the pure present moment…which is GOD🔥✨
Me too, I'm so glad that he mentioned doing artwork. Nice reinforcement, great video, thx Create existence together with the other creator/s of existence, simultaneously, in the now, alongside the main creator. Join the essence, and escape being in just the mind, a prison. 😅🎉❤ Nirvana Breaks 😊 👍
Can you believe Eckhart Tolle is 76 years old? As a spiritual master and master guide he will never grow old. You know why? Because he lives’ in the Now. Getting old is according to the future. Do like him, act like him, and think like him and you will never, never grow old. Merci Eckhart Tolle, pour la paix de l’âme que vous m’apportez. ❤
I was listening to Dee and suddenly last night thought of ET. Because of her sense of humor ? I don’t know. There he was. My, our teacher, his book is still in my bedroom. I have been focused on being as I get more disabled at 88. I am relying more on the Universe and feel an inner peace. Thank you Eckhart. You were one of the first. Before the Course. ❤❤❤ I am smiling with recognition! Thank you Master 🙏🙏
Prior to Eckhart's teachings, i would never have thought spiritual awakening was gor anyone but the ignorant. This man speaks reasonably, is humble and eloquent, and has offered me a new understanding of what it means to be alive.
You're clearly not very bright if you thought spiritual awakening was for the ignorant. Odd thing to thing. But surprise 😀. Turns out it was u who was ignorant all a long
All I can say is that when I "woke up" and become conscious - Eckart was the only one that made sense to me. I've since found the Bhagavid Gita, J. Krishnamurti and others... but Eckart - you were the first, and I'll never forget you! Enjoy all that 2024 brings. Peace to all beings, that humanity may evolve in this lifetime.
After trying several teachers like Krishnamurti, Sadhguru, I feel that Eckhart Tolle is the one who makes me discover what I am, and what's it all about. Krishnamurti is very dry and materialistic. Osho can't make me wake up. There are other good Oriental indian teachers, "Who am I ?" The only question, really. Thank you. 🎉❤❤❤
I agree Tolle feels best of them all, just no ego and very intense presence that its not just words but they have spiritual energy that goes into you so i usually meditate to his talks@@DihelsonMendonca
Sitting listening to this and remembering a time when this talk would have left me glazed over, I wouldn't have understood a word he was talking about......and now? I understand every word. Just when I think this 'awakening' process is taking a very long time, maybe I'm farther along than I think....Blessings to you Eckhart
@@BeeDee-qs9so the fun part is that the other half of this saying is that "when the student is truly ready, the teacher disappears" (from the Tao Te Ching) 🙃
Eckhard is like a child, a wise one, a genius one. He looks younger than his age, because he lives what he believes. It is only goodness in him and shines through. He is a beautiful human being. Eventually , disregarding the exterior, he is so profound. An infinite inside him. I discovered him just at the right time in my life, when I needed his teachings. I imagine some ETs like him, I will be their friend , instantly. The world needs him and others like him. He is a blessing for mankind. Modest and thoughtful and kind. 🐥
Ten years ago, I struggled to grasp Eckhart's teachings when I first read "The Power of Now." However, I hold onto the belief that understanding will come with time. Now, as I listen to Eckhart, I can truly "feel" the essence of his message. The experiences of the past decade have likely contributed significantly to my comprehension. Here's to hoping that positive vibes radiate to every corner of the world in 2024 ✌ Wishing you all a Happy New Year filled with understanding and enlightenment ❤
It’s so encouraging to know that people are waking up to who and what we truly are and that they believe in unity and love. I’m excited for the future. There is darkness on this earth but the light always overcomes and humanity’s light is growing brighter!❤️
@@stephanieturner9479 Absolutely 😀 It's heartening to see more people embracing their true selves and spreading the light💥 The awakening is a beautiful journey🧡
I absolutely love when Eckhart adds humor into his discussions. Laughing is such a fabulous emotion and can (and, imo, should) be used as a tool to help realize how wonderful life and learning can be! Seriousness in all situations is not necessary. ❤
If you're reading this, Happy New Year! I hope you know that you are capable of achieving all that you desire. You have a purpose to fulfill, and with dedication, perseverance, and faith, you can make it happen. LOVE & LIGHT ALWAYS, BUTTERFLYAWAKENING 🦋
Dear People Dear Eckhart I am so thankful hearing and understanding this teachings ❤ This is the most important and most beautiful Christmas Gift for me and I hope for many people! Sorry for my Tarzan English I am from Serbia and I love, I understand and accept all of you much better, thanks Eckhart teachings! I feel evry Sentence every word is so thrue! Something like it was already and always in me... ❤😊
People who suffer with Agoraphobia really need to hear this most! Agoraphobia is the most complex, restricting, insidious of all disorders! It really needs its own foundation like the cancer council and other foundations alike! Peace and Love to you all! 💛🙏🏽
@@REL602 if you lost all your opinions, beliefs and stories created for you by other people or your own minds imagination , I guarantee you too would feel differently. If you can let go of all the stories created for you by other people and your own mind without replacing them with simply different stories then you will only be left the truth and reality of your very own lived experience and factual knowledge 🙏🙏🙏🙏. It's not about being selfish or in denial of reality it's about not listening to or creating stories and an invented reality for your self to be unhappy about 🙏🙏🙏🙏.
@@Jac0bIAm absolutely Jacob 😊👍, I've often wounded if really spiritual people refuse to pay bills, taxes and for public transport by insisting " there is no I to pay or who needs to pay" 😊😊😊😊🙏🙏🙏🙏
I can imagine contentedly watching a movie that has no conflict. Just like standing before an impressionist painting, one does not need conflict to appreciate the beauty and artistry that meets our gaze.
Conflict is all around and inside you constantly. Take your immune system for example. There need only be a perspective shift on what conflict actually is and not project your own conflicts into and onto it.
Eckhart's teachings frequently pop up in my yoga philosophy classes because so much of them overlap with yoga: the prakriti and purusha, the antaraya, the klesha, the panchamaya, duality... It's all there, and older than Jesus and Buddha etc. It says to me that we humans have a deep longing for inner peace and world peace. It's hard to believe it's working though, when there's genocide and oligarchy around, but I have faith that the arc of history is moving that way. I can play my part in that. ❤️
To everyone who says this is being so naive or ridiculous because there will always be wars and people will always fight, etc. I say : "Yes but does it help if I do the same as them?" 🙏
Yes love is in the air. The cosmos is filled with light. Much of it beyond our 5 senses. And yes the words are HEELING. Like when a dog is commanded to HEEL. Thanks to MASTER Eckhard.
I totally agree with you. I have a new friend who is 93 and she is just starting to remember to let go and let God. She sees her grown children doing stuff which is not what she thinks they deserve. She feels that she needs to try and correct them before it's too late for her. But I've been saying that the Nero scientists are saying we can live to 150 earth years old so she's just over middle aged. 🎉 She is happier today to just be a human being and not a human doing! Bless her she has achieved many things in her life and letting go is hard. 😅
When profound things are mentioned people go on laughing. Are they all enlightened? But for me his words make me instantly still and deep.Sometimes he jokes.That is nice too.
"The best lack conviction and the worst are full of passionate intensity" is a quote by Yeats. Such a beautiful message from Eckhart as we are ready to step into a new year. I wish you all well. 🙏🙏
Blessings to you my friend, God got grace for single moms .. many times we try so hard in our on strength we miss the grace that was all over life .. Grace comes through rest not stress . It's called restoration not rushstoration . Prayer for you single mother .you are loved and valuable so be encouraged
After following Abraham for about 8 years, I did wonder how those teachings could be so different from the wisdom of Eckhart, who I am now listening to - and for both to be valid and spiritual. This video answers that wondering, and more. Thank you.
one is using sprritual knowledgde to fulfill egos desires, the other is about detaching from desire for outside things. Real spirituality is always about becomming unconditionally peacefull, loving, joyfull and that means not even wanting to strive for those feelings but becomming unconditionally here and now. so any teaching aiming for better feelings or even just very base human desires is not spiritual
I have so much respect and admiration for Eckhart as a presence and form. Practicing his teachings have been saving my life for about 8 mos now. They have helped me manifest several things I really needed, badly, besides greatly improving the overall quality of my life, immensely. Modern day philosophers critique this beautiful, wonder of nature who freely gives us wisdom, guidance, the gift of a true life. They say that there “is no proof of his cosmic teachings,etc…” Well, I’m living proof by just the way my life has turned around from listening and acting out this man’s knowledge. I’m sure all of you who follow Eckhart have the same experiences. HE is and shows us how to access (the presence) pure love. ❤🙏☮️
@@KidForTodayBOC If that’s supposed to be sarcastic then might I suggest that you look in the mirror. If you have nothing better to do than criticize someone bc of an enthusiastic comment then you must not be doing all that great yourself.
Eckhert is a gift to us. My husband and I love him and plan to see him live. Five years ago I couldn’t sit still to listen to Eckhart. Amazing how we can change. Being with cats helped to calm me down and be still.
I was meditating on my emotions and feelings, chaos was all around in me at the time but i was trying to maintain presence doing different mudra and chanting om mantra eventually i was able to experience the intemporality of the emotions. But when i was left only with presence i experienced a mental image of me actually using those emotions to grow myself into what i am today and i was leaving them behind just as a butterfly leaving its chrysalid to become what it always was. I also heard the word shiva and felt a warming presence. Thank you eckhart for your teachings blessed be those who didnt make it to the next year and those who are still living and learning from life. Much love.😊
Thank you!! I love the idea of the butterfly leaving it’s chrysalis… it’s exactly what I need to do. I truly want to be wholly awake and live life through my consciousness … my essence.
Pure Truth! Why am I so lucky to have the opportunity to hear that? Even gratitude is not the right attitude to have - just dive into these right words and enjoy ....
..." we come to experience the play of form" and the return to our timeless form (essence, isness, soul). This duality provides the growth Bandura speaks of...nice..🙏💝 Doing and Being..so much value. Thankyou for these messages of remembering 🙏🔥❤️🕊🙏
The two age groups that have most in common are the under 5s and over 75s, apparently, both groups are less concerned with self image and other people's opinions of them and are much more inclined to let themselves go and simply enjoy and get the most out of what they have at that moment in time 🙏🙏🙏🙏
❤❤ As I close this prayer, I lift up every soul who may feel weary or burdened today. May your peace wash over us like a gentle tide, and may your promises be the solid ground on which we stand. Thank you for hearing us, for caring about the details of our lives, and for never leaving our side. In the name of Jesus, I pray, Amen ❤❤❤
Nice to finally see you. I read your book about ten years ago it really helped me but i chose to hide from social media for a long time. I love your stillness. It embraces me. Thank you 🎉
I live my life the way I see fit. I appreciate most everything that the universe offers for me to have. Except the last challenge I faced with this tenant who had a drug and drinking problem and I had rented a room to her in my house. She created so much chaos. I couldn’t stand it. Thank God “ i” got her out.
Ekhart states that not every I, in fact is a bad thing there is a deep version of "I" which is deeply embedded intuition. He also states that you don't have to tolerate things that harm you. You have 3 choices to complain about to accept or to remove the harm. You chose , rightly so to remove the harm . I think some people completely misunderstand Ekhart and their perception of his words are quite varied
God Bless You Master Eckhart . You are the blessing for this world and my private life too. Thank You for all your books and recordings. Happy New Year !
I work with my hands. I am present as the materials form in to things. Order simplicity & balance brings me joy to behold. After 40 years of this I started a garden during the pandemic it's a completely different dimension of creation. Less predictable as it has its own way that I don't understand but I work with & respect it. For me this is a particularly nice talk by Eckhart
Thank you for such wonderful teachings, I picked up the power of now years ago & it was like reading a foreign language! Now it resonates deeply with me. Funny how I wasn’t ready to receive the wisdom then years later I was. Btw how do you look so youthful? You look amazing! Much love & peace to you Eckhart & to all who read my words, may you feel loved, free & one day our paths cross ❤️🫶🏻
I personally struggle to engage with Eckharts written words but enjoy his verbal explanations and interpretations, again personally I find some other people's written explanations of Eckharts interpretations much easier to understand than those of Eckhart himself but I yet to see or hear anyone present his interpretations better than Eckhart himself 🙏🙏🙏🙏
This happened to me... I had co- created a book that just flowed through me into being. I have not published it for almost a year, as when I met a publisher, the words he spoke to me woke up my ego with promises of greatness and success, so I retreated to reflect why. Last month, I met an editor that showed me I had done the work, and I was finally ready. The book is now on Amazon, and I am still a work in progress. Trying to blance between, giving it the light it needs to shine a way to others, and completely letting it go and trust that it will find its way to whoever needs it. Thank you, Eckhart, for all the teachings 🙏🏼
b/c there probably aren't too many teachers in schools who know this stuff...Rupert Spira often laments the fact that much of modern science and medicine is still based on materialism
2 things, government and religion are both fear based. I had just written S. teachings. Ok, I backed up to erase text. Lol. I needed this reminder. Again I feel humbled listening to Eckhart.
I really really love this beeing in every cell of my body, when I listen to Eclhart it feels like coming home. Ps . Eckhart his birthday was this month. HAPPY BDAY ... HOPE YOU LIVE 4 EVER!!!
I wish my Dad had met you Eckhardt 😊 but he was very wise & I feel he would have fully appreciated your teachings .. I thank God for him 🙏❤️ and I do also for you 🙏❤️🙇♀️
35:30 that reminds me of "When I have fashioned him (in due proportion) and breathed into him of My spirit, fall ye down in obeisance unto him." Your teachings preserve sanity amid this chaos. I thank God for the “I” that happened to be called Ekhart Tolle.
Eckhart's teaching is a precious discovery for me this year. Humble, good-humoured, calm and gentle. After having listened to his recordings, I realized that my sense of personal incompleteness is simply a result of spiritual and mental noise. Of course, I am still a great deal attached to many things in my life (my home library, in particular :)) as being totally detached is super-human, but in general his wisdom has helped me become more pacified and non-resistant
⚠️ After trying several teachers like Krishnamurti, Sadhguru, I feel that Eckhart Tolle is the one who makes me discover what I am, and what's it all about. Krishnamurti is very dry and materialistic. Osho can't make me wake up. There are other good Oriental indian teachers, "Who am I ?" The only question, really. Thank you. 🎉❤❤❤
There are so many beautiful souls that have come to deliver this gift. Ramana Maharishi, Annamalai Swami, Nisargadatta Maharaj, Srila Prabhupada, Bhaktivinod Thakur, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, Adi Shankaracharya, Ramanuja Acharya, Mahavir, Buddha, Maharishi Valmiki, Goswami Tulsidas, Mirabai, Sant Kabirdas, Ramakrishna Paramhans, Guru Nanak, etc. We are so fortunate to be living in this age where we have access to their teachings. We must be eternally grateful in whatever capacity as each soul has given us their utmost! It’s just the mind that likes to relish and understand the truth through different speakers.
Eckhart Tolle has it partly right, the ego is an identity; however, it’s our 1st identity. We are born into an environment that communicates from an egoistic mindset. We need the ego to exist and survive. We cannot stop the ego; however, we can free ourselves from the ego when we understand through an awakening your spiritual intelligence.
@@binathere2574 listing, reading, and attending Eckhart Tolle's seminars will not change your basic nature. Yes, E.T. has a lot of excellent content; however, an important reality is missing. Examining your ego nature, your beliefs, habits, patterns, and thinking. It's impossible to take in new information and make real inner meaningful and phycological changes when you are filled with confused conceptions. There's a way to freedom and true spiritual growth.
@@KidForTodayBOC thank you for you opinion; unfortunately, you have no idea who I am. You follow Tolle because you feel he has the truth; yet, feelings are the lowest level of knowledge. Have you questioned anything Eckhart says? Or do you follow blindly? I have the truth because Spinoza's a 17th century philosopher communicates it in his Ethics, and I understand Spinoza's language. I put Spinoza on the same level as Jesus who was a man with great wisdom, knowledge of human nature and the nature of God.
We need to STOP PLANNING and START MANIFESTING we must CARPE' DIEM (seize the day) to say VENI VIDI VICI (I came,saw,concord) after all QUE SERA SERA (what will be will be)
Thank you Eckhart for your teachings… knowing the key difference between essence and form allows us to be consciously aware of this stillness that’s so much taken for granted. Happy Nee Year!❤
Thank you so much. Your message has helped give me direction. I've had presence for several years now, but wondered what I was supposed to do. I'll continue to just BE and spread the energy as I've been doing.
Is anyone else here having an experience where after 10 years of watching/reading/practicing this kind of content it only just now actually made sense where all of a sudden you just feel this rather than just knowing/talking about it??? People told me it might take a few years, didn't realise it'd take me 10 but I guess better late than never 😅
@@WingsofFlight-n5u it is just stillness really. A clear space from which to create beautiful things in your life. Like in the Dao The Ching the concept of Wu Wei is about doing from a place of non-doing. As in, being productive with no judging thoughts in the background, so that all your energy is now freed up to be put into whatever your craft is. In that sense it is liberating and revitalising to have all that energy back that previously the mind consumed by entertaining petty thoughts.
That's the distinction that helped me to finally "get it" - it was realising that meditation and thinking and actually taking an active role in life are all one and the same.
In that, using the mind to set a nice direction for the future and constructively thinking about what you can do to get there is like an active form of Meditation that results in clarity and congruence between who you want to be and the actions you take on a day to day basis. Through that congruence and certainty comes the contentment that enables more stillness.
As for dealing with the past, it was once again using constructive thinking to realise that even though bad things may have happened, the pain I held onto was my attempt at making that situation better by trying to solve it in my mind. But we can't "fix" the past in our minds, so hence the more effective way to make it better is by becoming a better version of myself that isn't held down by the past anymore. This is simply done by replacing that pain with something better that you can do in the present moment such as being optimistic and sharing your gifts with the world. You can't feel 2 things at once, so the only way to make the past better is by replacing it with something new.
So finding a resolution for the pain I felt was step 1 because it allowed the space to find stillness. Then, the real key was moving beyond the duality of thinking that meditation is me sitting down in peace, and then resuming my stressful life. Instead, true presence is the ability to feel that calmness that you feel during meditation as the background behind your thinking/doing - and most importantly to be able to retreat back into that stillness whenever the constructive thinking is done.
When we stop looking at presence and meditation as a designated practice, and seek to have our whole life become the practice, that's the key to having it permeate every aspect of what we do.
Hardest part for me was finding someone who could explain this in a way that made sense, so I just started writing about it on my own and sure enough it made sense eventually, but others may not vibe with this kind of description as these are the words that I found.
Hope this helps a bit, this seems to be a subjective journey but the consciousness we find on the other side of that journey seems to be a common experience.
@@WingsofFlight-n5u it's a kind of stillness and calmness from which we can create beautiful things in this world. The most helpful concept was learning about Wu Wei from the Tao Te Ching, where we "do nothing while leaving nothing undone".
The way I understood this was by realising that meditation and thinking and being productive are not separate activities. It's not about meditating for 30 minutes and then resuming our stressful existence again. It's about experiencing that stillness while being productive and sharing your gifts with the world, which becomes a very liberating and revitalising kind of experience because all the energy that was previously consumed by petty thoughts is now freed up to be put back into our craft.
This act of merging the dualities of action and non action was the key for me.
But the journey there also involved using constructive thinking to set a nice direction for the future, and then aligning my day to day actions through self discipline with that future so that I feel congruence between what I'm going in the now, and the life aspire to have. In other words, ignoring important responsibilities wasn't the way into presence for me. It was by taking right action that I found the contentment to deepen that stillness and presence.
And further, by merging the joy of what I thought the future would bring with the mundane day to day activities I ironically found joy in the present moment, and realised it was never about the future, but about enjoying what I'm doing now - while contributing to a nice life for myself and my family.
As for the past, I had to realise that holding onto the pain was me trying to make it better in my mind. But the past can't be "fixed" by constantly thinking about it, in fact, ruminating does the opposite of fixing anything, it perpetuates it. The hurtful past can only be fixed by replacing that pain with something new. Simply because our brain can't experience two realities at the same time. So by becoming a better version of myself now, and by engaging in right action now to improve my life, the past simply fell away like yesterday's news.
And so this really was a process of bridging the duality between day to day activities and the act of being present. As in, being able to think constructively, from that place of stillness. So that it's always in the background, and whenever you realise your mind is now done with thinking and starts to drift, that's when you find that stillness again and continue the next activity from that place. That's how you know you're "there" when you are free to go back "there" whenever you like, or to do whatever you need to do from "that" place.
Hardest part was finding the right words that made me understand. I couldn't find them in books so I sat down and wrote about these things on my own until it started to make sense.
Next thing i knew a new world opened up for me. Bad habits like alcohol, coffee, and social media started to fall away because they felt wrong in my body. All of a sudden I started to notice synchronicities all around me like the universe giving little signs of encouragement - which were always there but I didn't have the attention to notice. Then the every day activities transformed. For example I was operating an excavator at work, and in my mind was no-thing, but on the outside the work became effortless and a pure expression of creating something beautiful in the world.
And once again, the journey of getting here seems to be subjective. But the experience of Being and connecting to the Source seems to be universal and very similar from individual to individual where similar beliefs and thought patterns appear. And the desire to engage in unhealthy habits falls away, because there's no longer that underlying discomfort to try and soothe with something tasty or intoxicating.

Can you believe Eckhart Tolle is 76 years old? As a spiritual master and master guide he will never grow old. You know why? Because he lives’ in the Now. Getting old is according to the future. Do like him, act like him, and think like him and you will never, never grow old.
Merci Eckhart Tolle, pour la paix de l’âme que vous m’apportez. ❤
Eckhart. looks the same as he did in the 70’s. Teaching in action.
I was listening to Dee and suddenly last night thought of ET. Because of her sense of humor ? I don’t know. There he was. My, our teacher, his book is still in my bedroom.

I agree, he is funny.
Prior to Eckhart's teachings, i would never have thought spiritual awakening was gor anyone but the ignorant. This man speaks reasonably, is humble and eloquent, and has offered me a new understanding of what it means to be alive.
Well said. 👍🏽💯
You're clearly not very bright if you thought spiritual awakening was for the ignorant.
Odd thing to thing. But surprise 😀. Turns out it was u who was ignorant all a long
Very meaningful talk, it really makes a link to the Source. Thank you. ❤
amazing. thank you. you have 110 idiots like yourself. try writing eloquently.
Beautiful.
All I can say is that when I "woke up" and become conscious - Eckart was the only one that made sense to me. I've since found the Bhagavid Gita, J. Krishnamurti and others... but Eckart - you were the first, and I'll never forget you! Enjoy all that 2024 brings. Peace to all beings, that humanity may evolve in this lifetime.
No other teacher has that intensity of consciousness in them like eckhart so you are getting far more than words, its very meditative to listen
Thank you Ekart for the joy you give me just listening to your wisdom. Sai Ram❤❤❤❤❤❤
After trying several teachers like Krishnamurti, Sadhguru, I feel that Eckhart Tolle is the one who makes me discover what I am, and what's it all about. Krishnamurti is very dry and materialistic. Osho can't make me wake up. There are other good Oriental indian teachers, "Who am I ?" The only question, really. Thank you. 🎉❤❤❤
I agree Tolle feels best of them all, just no ego and very intense presence that its not just words but they have spiritual energy that goes into you so i usually meditate to his talks@@DihelsonMendonca
Everything is evolving. Have Peace🙏🍀🌻
😂 only problem is I like to listen to him while resting 😅 and when he pauses I turn to see if I accidentally shut off my phone hahaha
I know....verrrrrry long pauses. So I keep waking up
Me too, many times 😊 more used to it now...I think "he is getting centred" 😊❤
Guyyy me and u both😅
😂😂 me too
Sometimes when I experience this, I wonder if Consciousness just wants me to be OK with just being still.
Sitting listening to this and remembering a time when this talk would have left me glazed over, I wouldn't have understood a word he was talking about......and now? I understand every word. Just when I think this 'awakening' process is taking a very long time, maybe I'm farther along than I think....Blessings to you Eckhart
Yes! But “when the student is ready, the teacher appears,” perhaps. Same for me. 😊
Ditto….its been a great journey to get here.
Same, simply the same. That way is so. 😊
@@BeeDee-qs9so the fun part is that the other half of this saying is that "when the student is truly ready, the teacher disappears" (from the Tao Te Ching) 🙃
Wow love that!
Eckhart Tolle contrasting himself with Tony Robbins is brilliant!
And seeing Jim Carrey takes…
Eckhart is true Comedian 😊
Eckhard is like a child, a wise one, a genius one. He looks younger than his age, because he lives what he believes. It is only goodness in him and shines through. He is a beautiful human being. Eventually , disregarding the exterior, he is so profound. An infinite inside him. I discovered him just at the right time in my life, when I needed his teachings. I imagine some ETs like him, I will be their friend , instantly. The world needs him and others like him. He is a blessing for mankind. Modest and thoughtful and kind. 🐥
Ten years ago, I struggled to grasp Eckhart's teachings when I first read "The Power of Now."
However, I hold onto the belief that understanding will come with time.
Now, as I listen to Eckhart, I can truly "feel" the essence of his message.
The experiences of the past decade have likely contributed significantly to my comprehension.
Here's to hoping that positive vibes radiate to every corner of the world in 2024 ✌

I can imagine contentedly watching a movie that has no conflict. Just like standing before an impressionist painting, one does not need conflict to appreciate the beauty and artistry that meets our gaze.
pour yourself another drink.
Conflict is all around and inside you constantly. Take your immune system for example. There need only be a perspective shift on what conflict actually is and not project your own conflicts into and onto it.
Except that , for the artist, that painting took years of practice and conflict and struggle to get to that degree of mastery and insight.
Thank you for being my human company this New Year 🫶🏻🙏🏻💫
Consciousness is using Your mind in a wonderful way Eckhart
Eckhart's teachings frequently pop up in my yoga philosophy classes because so much of them overlap with yoga: the prakriti and purusha, the antaraya, the klesha, the panchamaya, duality... It's all there, and older than Jesus and Buddha etc.
It says to me that we humans have a deep longing for inner peace and world peace. It's hard to believe it's working though, when there's genocide and oligarchy around, but I have faith that the arc of history is moving that way. I can play my part in that. ❤️
To everyone who says this is being so naive or ridiculous because there will always be wars and people will always fight, etc. I say : "Yes but does it help if I do the same as them?" 🙏
That sounds like an interesting class. Is it an online course?
So healing to hear the words - I wish you all can sense the love and light everywhere.
Yes love is in the air. The cosmos is filled with light. Much of it beyond our 5 senses. And yes the words are HEELING. Like when a dog is commanded to HEEL. Thanks to MASTER Eckhard.

I totally agree with you.
I have a new friend who is 93 and she is just starting to remember to let go and let God.
She sees her grown children doing stuff which is not what she thinks they deserve. She feels that she needs to try and correct them before it's too late for her. But I've been saying that the Nero scientists are saying we can live to 150 earth years old so she's just over middle aged. 🎉 She is happier today to just be a human being and not a human doing! Bless her she has achieved many things in her life and letting go is hard. 😅
When profound things are mentioned people go on laughing. Are they all enlightened? But for me his words make me instantly still and deep.Sometimes he jokes.That is nice too.

After following Abraham for about 8 years, I did wonder how those teachings could be so different from the wisdom of Eckhart, who I am now listening to - and for both to be valid and spiritual. This video answers that wondering, and more. Thank you.
yes, this video is one of the best of the hundreds of teachings I've watched/listened to on UA-cam....he answers so much here 🙏
one is using sprritual knowledgde to fulfill egos desires, the other is about detaching from desire for outside things. Real spirituality is always about becomming unconditionally peacefull, loving, joyfull and that means not even wanting to strive for those feelings but becomming unconditionally here and now. so any teaching aiming for better feelings or even just very base human desires is not spiritual
can you compare them? doesn’t abraham just say to be happy and e-cigarettes say to be present. cant you do both?
The only thing I find helpful from Esther is the advice not to think about things that bother you

I have so much respect and admiration for Eckhart as a presence and form. Practicing his teachings have been saving my life for about 8 mos now. They have helped me manifest several things I really needed, badly, besides greatly improving the overall quality of my life, immensely. Modern day philosophers critique this beautiful, wonder of nature who freely gives us wisdom, guidance, the gift of a true life. They say that there “is no proof of his cosmic teachings,etc…” Well, I’m living proof by just the way my life has turned around from listening and acting out this man’s knowledge. I’m sure all of you who follow Eckhart have the same experiences. HE is and shows us how to access (the presence) pure love. ❤🙏☮️
❤
yeah youre doin great
@@KidForTodayBOC If that’s supposed to be sarcastic then might I suggest that you look in the mirror. If you have nothing better to do than criticize someone bc of an enthusiastic comment then you must not be doing all that great yourself.
The bell made me take a deep breath & the stillness sent chills through me ❤I love this man
So wonderful.. this one was jam packed with wisdom.. Thankyou Eckhart 🙏
Eckhert is a gift to us. My husband and I love him and plan to see him live. Five years ago I couldn’t sit still to listen to Eckhart. Amazing how we can change. Being with cats helped to calm me down and be still.
thank you Mr Tolle, we appreciate you sir ❤
I was meditating on my emotions and feelings, chaos was all around in me at the time but i was trying to maintain presence doing different mudra and chanting om mantra eventually i was able to experience the intemporality of the emotions. But when i was left only with presence i experienced a mental image of me actually using those emotions to grow myself into what i am today and i was leaving them behind just as a butterfly leaving its chrysalid to become what it always was. I also heard the word shiva and felt a warming presence. Thank you eckhart for your teachings blessed be those who didnt make it to the next year and those who are still living and learning from life. Much love.😊
Thank you!! I love the idea of the butterfly leaving it’s chrysalis… it’s exactly what I need to do. I truly want to be wholly awake and live life through my consciousness … my essence.
just when the caterpillar thought it's life was over, it became a butterfly ❤
Thanks from the deepest of my heart 🙏
Pure Truth!
Why am I so lucky to have the opportunity to hear that?
Even gratitude is not the right attitude to have - just dive into these right words and enjoy ....
..." we come to experience the play of form" and the return to our timeless form (essence, isness, soul). This duality provides the growth Bandura speaks of...nice..🙏💝 Doing and Being..so much value. Thankyou for these messages of remembering 🙏🔥❤️🕊🙏
The two age groups that have most in common are the under 5s and over 75s, apparently, both groups are less concerned with self image and other people's opinions of them and are much more inclined to let themselves go and simply enjoy and get the most out of what they have at that moment in time 🙏🙏🙏🙏
What we feel, dislikes us, it's so true. You have a sharp mind, Eckhart!
How beautiful that is. Sacred. thank you. I feel very honoured and grateful to have been gifted this. X
❤❤ As I close this prayer, I lift up every soul who may feel weary or burdened today. May your peace wash over us like a gentle tide, and may your promises be the solid ground on which we stand. Thank you for hearing us, for caring about the details of our lives, and for never leaving our side. In the name of Jesus, I pray, Amen ❤❤❤
The stillness feels good physically and emotionally.
It really does.. it’s nice.
He's autistic
Wonderful message, thank you for your time
What for an ultimate PRESENT this sharing of E.T. Thank YOU soo much....
Thank you sir. I have read and listed for several years. Strong gentle messages. Feeds my soul.
Eckhart, you are such fun and have so much wisdom. Thank you!!
Mr. Eckhart. You truly embody loving kindness.
A natural Buddha, Jesus essence... Thank you.
I am happy to be here. Sharing presence.
This is incredible. It already covered all of what could said of the ultimate truth.
Thank you for this jewel dear Eckhart
A certain type of quietness is an art form.
Nice to finally see you. I read your book about ten years ago it really helped me but i chose to hide from social media for a long time.
I love your stillness.
It embraces me.
Thank you 🎉
I live my life the way I see fit. I appreciate most everything that the universe offers for me to have. Except the last challenge I faced with this tenant who had a drug and drinking problem and I had rented a room to her in my house. She created so much chaos. I couldn’t stand it. Thank God “ i” got her out.
She came in to your orbit for a reason.
Ekhart states that not every I, in fact is a bad thing there is a deep version of "I" which is deeply embedded intuition. He also states that you don't have to tolerate things that harm you. You have 3 choices to complain about to accept or to remove the harm. You chose , rightly so to remove the harm . I think some people completely misunderstand Ekhart and their perception of his words are quite varied
Haven't listened to him for 10 years. Still golden information. What a legend.
God Bless You Master Eckhart . You are the blessing for this world and my private life too. Thank You for all your books and recordings. Happy New Year !
I work with my hands. I am present as the materials form in to things. Order simplicity & balance brings me joy to behold. After 40 years of this I started a garden during the pandemic it's a completely different dimension of creation. Less predictable as it has its own way that I don't understand but I work with & respect it. For me this is a particularly nice talk by Eckhart
Thank you for such wonderful teachings, I picked up the power of now years ago & it was like reading a foreign language! Now it resonates deeply with me. Funny how I wasn’t ready to receive the wisdom then years later I was. Btw how do you look so youthful? You look amazing! Much love & peace to you Eckhart & to all who read my words, may you feel loved, free & one day our paths cross ❤️🫶🏻
It is an old recording I think. He looks more like the video posted before this one hehe but still looks great 😊
Ha! Thought maybe once you become ‘aware’ you gain the fountain of youth 😉 love him! Happy new year to you 🫶🏻❤️
@@thewickgroup that would be nice ☺️ thank you happy new year!
Just looked at the previous video, he still looks so youthful, no wrinkles, perfect skin, must be awareness 😂👏🏼🙌🏼
I personally struggle to engage with Eckharts written words but enjoy his verbal explanations and interpretations, again personally I find some other people's written explanations of Eckharts interpretations much easier to understand than those of Eckhart himself but I yet to see or hear anyone present his interpretations better than Eckhart himself 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Listen to Echart Tolle nurture your mind to be present and that is all that matter 😊
Perfect lecture to end this year by receiving a reminder in depth of what this existence here needs to look like. Thanks! ❤❤❤
This happened to me... I had co- created a book that just flowed through me into being. I have not published it for almost a year, as when I met a publisher, the words he spoke to me woke up my ego with promises of greatness and success, so I retreated to reflect why. Last month, I met an editor that showed me I had done the work, and I was finally ready. The book is now on Amazon, and I am still a work in progress. Trying to blance between, giving it the light it needs to shine a way to others, and completely letting it go and trust that it will find its way to whoever needs it.
Thank you, Eckhart, for all the teachings 🙏🏼
youre lost. you can not even write a coherent sentence. pls go away.
Why is everybody writing a book these days 😅
How this stuff isn’t in schools I’ll never understand...
b/c there probably aren't too many teachers in schools who know this stuff...Rupert Spira often laments the fact that much of modern science and medicine is still based on materialism
Maybe coz it would disrupt the economy and many aspects of capitalism and patriarchy if too many kids/people were made aware...
I hope and pray this changes within this generation
They don't want them to know
2 things, government and religion are both fear based. I had just written S. teachings. Ok, I backed up to erase text. Lol. I needed this reminder. Again I feel humbled listening to Eckhart.
There is no such thing as a life of your own, there is just one life. Thank you. 🤗👍💖
Omg…..Eckart, you bring me so much light, laughing and inspiration into my understanding of my essence.
Much love and gratitude to you beautiful soul!
I really really love this beeing in every cell of my body, when I listen to Eclhart it feels like coming home.
Ps . Eckhart his birthday was this month.
HAPPY BDAY ... HOPE YOU LIVE 4 EVER!!!
Happy New Year to you Eckhart Tolle!God bless you 🙏Thank you 🙏❤️✌️💫🌈❤️🌹🎄❄️
I'll make sure people perceive the world the same way you made me perceive it. This is our true mission. Thank you for everything 🙏
Gratitude, love and prayers ❤🙏
I wish my Dad had met you Eckhardt 😊 but he was very wise & I feel he would have fully appreciated your teachings .. I thank God for him 🙏❤️ and I do also for you 🙏❤️🙇♀️
Thanks for the inspiration Eckhart! Happy new year everyone!
💜🎉💙🎉💜
Happy new year!🎉🥳🪅🎈💜
Happy new year😊
35:30 that reminds me of "When I have fashioned him (in due proportion) and breathed into him of My spirit, fall ye down in obeisance unto him." Your teachings preserve sanity amid this chaos. I thank God for the “I” that happened to be called Ekhart Tolle.
Eckhart's teaching is a precious discovery for me this year. Humble, good-humoured, calm and gentle. After having listened to his recordings, I realized that my sense of personal incompleteness is simply a result of spiritual and mental noise. Of course, I am still a great deal attached to many things in my life (my home library, in particular :)) as being totally detached is super-human, but in general his wisdom has helped me become more pacified and non-resistant
⚠️ After trying several teachers like Krishnamurti, Sadhguru, I feel that Eckhart Tolle is the one who makes me discover what I am, and what's it all about. Krishnamurti is very dry and materialistic. Osho can't make me wake up. There are other good Oriental indian teachers, "Who am I ?" The only question, really. Thank you. 🎉❤❤❤
There are so many beautiful souls that have come to deliver this gift. Ramana Maharishi, Annamalai Swami, Nisargadatta Maharaj, Srila Prabhupada, Bhaktivinod Thakur, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, Adi Shankaracharya, Ramanuja Acharya, Mahavir, Buddha, Maharishi Valmiki, Goswami Tulsidas, Mirabai, Sant Kabirdas, Ramakrishna Paramhans, Guru Nanak, etc. We are so fortunate to be living in this age where we have access to their teachings. We must be eternally grateful in whatever capacity as each soul has given us their utmost! It’s just the mind that likes to relish and understand the truth through different speakers.
Briliant Beautiful human being … with spitting humor and expression. Namaste to the universe and you 🪬The One
Eckhart Tolle has it partly right, the ego is an identity; however, it’s our 1st identity. We are born into an environment that communicates from an egoistic mindset. We need the ego to exist and survive. We cannot stop the ego; however, we can free ourselves from the ego when we understand through an awakening your spiritual intelligence.
Eckhart teaches that
@@binathere2574 listing, reading, and attending Eckhart Tolle's seminars will not change your basic nature. Yes, E.T. has a lot of excellent content; however, an important reality is missing. Examining your ego nature, your beliefs, habits, patterns, and thinking. It's impossible to take in new information and make real inner meaningful and phycological changes when you are filled with confused conceptions. There's a way to freedom and true spiritual growth.
egoistic mindset, you are that. please do not write. you have no idea where you are.
@@KidForTodayBOC thank you for you opinion; unfortunately, you have no idea who I am. You follow Tolle because you feel he has the truth; yet, feelings are the lowest level of knowledge. Have you questioned anything Eckhart says? Or do you follow blindly? I have the truth because Spinoza's a 17th century philosopher communicates it in his Ethics, and I understand Spinoza's language. I put Spinoza on the same level as Jesus who was a man with great wisdom, knowledge of human nature and the nature of God.
Happy New Year Eckhart and thank you for all your wonderful teachings ❤
It’s insane how he stays on the same topic throughout the whole video! He never goes on tangents that lose the point of the talk. 🙌 ❤
We need to
STOP PLANNING
and
START MANIFESTING
we must
CARPE' DIEM
(seize the day)
to say
VENI VIDI VICI
(I came,saw,concord)
after all
QUE SERA SERA
(what will be will be)
The silence at the beginning says it all ❤
Thank You Beloved Eckhart
Truly Sublimely Divinely Inspiring
Sending Much Love,Light and Blessings to You One Consciousness 🙏 ❤
Eckhart, aka Robert Fripp, is an ageless wonder! Thanks for all your teachings Señor Tolle!
Thank you Eckhart Tolle 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾. Many thanks for your teachings.
This was the first best decision of mine for 2024 to listen to this lecture. Going to take notes tomorrow.🙏 Thank you
Thank you Eckhart for your teachings… knowing the key difference between essence and form allows us to be consciously aware of this stillness that’s so much taken for granted. Happy Nee Year!❤
Thank you so much. Your message has helped give me direction. I've had presence for several years now, but wondered what I was supposed to do. I'll continue to just BE and spread the energy as I've been doing.
