About Eckhart:
Eckhart Tolle is widely recognized as one of the most inspiring and visionary spiritual teachers in the world today. With his international bestsellers, The Power of Now and A New Earth-translated into more than 50 languages-he has introduced millions to the joy and freedom of living life in the present moment. The New York Times has described him as “the most popular spiritual author in the United States,” and in 2011, Watkins Review (now Watkins Mind Body Spirit) named him “the most spiritually influential person in the world.”
Eckhart’s profound yet simple teachings have helped countless people around the globe experience a state of vibrantly alive inner peace in their daily lives. His teachings focus on the significance and power of Presence, the awakened state of consciousness, which transcends ego and discursive thinking. Eckhart sees this awakening as the essential next step in human evolution.
My mother had severe dementia - and towards the end of her life, we just communicated soul to soul, heart to heart . . . She could no longer talk, but I knew what she was communicating. The months leading up to her death was one of the most beautiful times we spent together - and lingers now beyond the physical.
I just learned that my mother has mid-stage Lewy Body Dementia. She still drops in and out of cognitive alertness, but she mostly doesn’t know who we are anymore; she is slipping away before my eyes. And there has been so much pain and misunderstanding over my 60+ years with her that I always thought we would resolve with age and wisdom. Now I don’t know what to do, how to do it, or even what to hope for. She was miserable being the mother of 4 and resented the sacrifices she felt she made for us. I was determined to be a better mother, and I keep trying, but all in all, I am a far worse mother than she ever was. It’s all so confusing and the most ironic part is that when she is clear, I see flashes of insight, an understanding and sadness on her part - sometimes. I don’t want to miss any part of her as she disappears, but I don’t know how.
@@InSouthernMaine I relate to everything you have said. When my mother's ego dissolved with her dementia - then our world's opened up. It wasn't until that happened. I had similar issues with her as you described above. My mother did, however, struggle with feelings of regret though she couldn't communicate that. But I told her over and over again, "Mom, you and I are fine. There is nothing between us but love. Nothing more to forgive." Sometimes she understood - other times she staired blankly at the floor. You can't change what is happening to her - just be present and love her just as she is. Time for "what ifs" later.... if necessary. Just Be.
@@scottjossfan624 Thank you for sharing your experience - I really mean that. It's very hard to know how to accept all of it; the loss is overwhelming. But I truly am grateful to be able to experience at least some of my mother's best parts without fearing the usual backlash. There are so many years of miscommunication and hurt and resentment that I'm desperately trying to dissipate it while she still has lucid moments. Thank you for being an example of what - or who - I most hope to be.
The best teachers send you back to yourself and that is what Eckhart did here. So much love for Eckhart Tolle ❤
Baba you're a kind soul and I hope you will find much success in your ways to create more consciousness and joy! Best of luck my friend. ❤

Thankyou Eckhart I'm very grateful to be a part of this community and listen to you every week on youtube! Have a wonderful week! 💜
Yes, spiritual communication is much deeper than just the words. Its heart to heart 💚
when i was in higher states of conciousness i didnt had to speak single wors and people were gathering around me intuitivelly
Eckart is so funny: "Normally, I'm not into great efforting!" When he was talking about how much effort he put forth while speaking Spanish during an event.
Mr. EcKhart Tolle, I love your humor, integrity, and your humility. You are a wonderful person. Your spirit shines. ❤Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.❤
Eckhart you always make me smile such a precious heart you are. God bless you.
i asked my self the question on African languague, thankful that spirit raised that question in a Physical Audience with Echart. The question meant alot. Love from Uganda.
✨"Trust the depths of your being." E.Tolle
There is, on earth, no better piece of advice.❤
So grateful 💓🙏✨✨✨✨🌺
Excellent advice at the end. Ask the question, then go into stillness, and wait for an answer. Eckhart always raises my vibration. ☀️🌞
Just listening to Elkhart raises my vibe, and puts me in a Positive Frequency of Wellbeing. I really Appreciate this. 🔑✨
I can really feel you, there is something about him that makes me feel calm and aware, so nice that you feel the same.
My heart lifts just listening to him speak, even when he's not speaking of spiritual matters.
Surprisingly good questions. Thanks to Echart for his humor and wisdom. Slovenians are a small nation. Slovenian is a wonderful language. I help myself with Google translations, which are what they are, but I am also grateful for these translations. Last but not least, it is revealed to me in a way.
Bot?
Every nation is welcome, we are one. I hope that we understand this in the future, even if you are a small nation or maybe because of that you have a lot to contribute to world peace. We are open for that and we will try to connect every nation towards a better future
I don't feel small. But I am a connecting link of the Slovenian identity, which is identified with its small size. This is what Echart talks about, which I love to listen to so that I can better understand my position in the cultural space of my homeland.
Very good question about multiple languages! Thank you so much for asking it!!!
The later advice about finding a solution to social media is something we can apply on to ANY problem and I'd say it is probably what "being present" is all about... When faced with an issue just meditate and be as calm as possible and the answer will come through either meditation (if we have a lot of time and perhaps also contemplation and discussion but in more urgent matter just taking a breath is more essential...
I really needed the later advice because although I am very much physically and financially safe I am currently facing some inner questions on what to do to move forward... So I was reminded that I can move on by staying calm mediating and "the answer" will come
Thank you, famous UA-camr 😆😅😊
Eckhart Tolle……. The ultimate “influencer”❤❤❤❤
Baba… am African and growing up- there was so much wisdom to be gotten from my parents- elders of the clan.. basically consciousness and awareness were an everyday part of life.. but then even English was the official language we also spoke our mother tongue so that meant wisdom and awareness was “ naturally “ given down / nurtured .. How wonderful you have learnt your mother tongue and you and your parents can communicate at a “ deeper level”.. /connect at a spiritual level.
I would really like to learn about the wisdom of live that you recieved from the elders. Is this also wisdom that could fit in our daily world? Buddhism is wisdom from 2000 years and it is still so up to date, maybe the elders have wisdom that we nowaday can put in our teachings. I myselfe try to make the world and my students more aware of africa.
Baba thank you for the questions 🙏 ❤ Eckhart Tolle thank you so much for the amazing teaching ❤❤❤
Eckhart Tolle is great; answering such a long complicated question from a person who just likes to hear himself talking is a virtue!
I always enjoy someone who is relatively new to Eckhart's teaching. Him wanting to help make the teaching accessible in African languages made me cry. anyone else? I was feeling that.
So true, its fun to help people where you understand their sufferring and you want to give him the answer, I wonder if that works in africa? are you familiar with the language and the people? I would be very interessted in the kind of problems they face where a spirutal approve can help because that is a country where I do not know much about and I would like to know how this can benefit them for future projects, because I think that there is a lot of things we can do to help the people in Africa
You are my favorite youtuber! 😂❤️
Thank you dear sweet Eckhart ❤It's all an illusion and as long as we live in our minds/egos it's freaking unbearable! Trapped in the illusion of consent thoughts ... But I've found some truths i can share that works for myself. I try to separate myself from thoughts by simply saying, "That's a thoughts .. Look at all those thoughts etc" Not believing every thought. To simply be the observer of each thought.
I try to meditate just 5 min each morning and just focus on my breathing and quickly thoughts will start, so I'll gently bring it back to my breathing. The MOMENT I realize I'm back to thoughts I'm the observer! There's the real "me", the observer, my soul and the crazy, upset, unhappy ego!
But unfortunately suffering is necessary to motivate us to go through this process.
Even though this 5 min is a quick easy way to get out of the unhappy ego/mind and to find some freaking peace in this crazy world, it's still the hardest thing I've ever done! You've got to want it bad and realize the ego is a frighten child that doesn't want to let go ... To let go and let this shift in consciousness happen ...
But it's exciting that so many are seeking for a deeper meaning all over the world! And thanks to dear Eckhart Tolle is (A true living spiritual master) many are finding this truth! Thank you 🎶 ❤ 🎶
Hey, let me speek on behalf of Eckhart: There should be no force involved in "letting it go" there should also be no force involved in doing meditation. its rather a concept of "understanding". Meditation should be done with a clear mind, otherwise its still towards the process of a clear mind. I myself know this, but I still struggle with the same things that you do. I have talked to many Monks and its okay if its not that easy. They all had a hard time first. But they all told me its worth it in the end and that you gradually will get more and more aware of that deepness and your meditations will be better and better.
I absolutely resonate to that. And am going through the same thing. Always trying an trying again to gain more clarity in my mind, to seperate my being from my thoughts, to build up routine in meditation - and then losing it for a while and then start again. I am living in that circle and sometime I think I don't progress in any way, but that is an illusion. Live is getting deeper and more beautiful with every little bit of consciousness gained.
@@sesamfan8850 that's beautiful! I love the part where you feel like you're going in circles but realize that's your mind playing tricks to keep you from continuing with meditation! The mind is so very clever and tricky. I found that when I'm making progress my mind goes extra crazy. So when that happens I actually talk with my ego/mind and make a deal! You're not going anyway, in fact I need you to make all this happen! I can't speak or function in this world without you but aren't you tired? Can you relax and let me run the show? Be quiet and smaller and then we can melt together into the very reason for our existence .. To become one!
Seeking itself is simply desire, a movement of mind. Desire is a projection away from the now, into an imaginary future, but enlightenment is always now. Truly, one must not seek, one must simply, be.
What about the joy of a thoughtful mind day dreaming of bringing kindness and compassion for all and everything I'm in the present and thinking about future joy without expecting anything 🙏 Peace
The thing with the chinese mom and never fight because not having enough words is so true and of course hilarious.
Baba you are an inspiration in living action. I am grateful to learn this and yes powerful life living in learning from this dear honest Man I do Trust✌️
I agree, words and language only distort and lessens what we already innately know on a conscious level. For example, I feed lots of crows every single day, and one very special crow perches on me window and it takes the pieces of cheese out of my hand. He's been coming round for the past 2 years now, and I have gotten to know him very well. I've never given the crow a name, yet if I did, I'd call him Russell, as in ( Russell Crow! ) lol. Anyways, I don't speak to him much either because that's only conceptualizing things and I prefer not to do that. Hence I've tried feeding it all kinds of food, and whatever he doesn't like he will just flick it away, and whatever he does like, he'll eat. I rolled a piece of bread into a little ball one day and he liked it, but then I gave him a square piece and he flicked it away. So now I know he likes his bread rolled into little balls, lol. Thus, I do roll about ten balls of bread in me hand and then feed him them one by one, and he stores them all down his throat and in his beak and they look like a row of pellets in a bee bee gun. He then flys away and stashes a bunch of them for later on that evening for his supper or the next morning for breakfast. But sometimes he returns to his hiding spot only to find that another crow has stolen his stash, lol. Anyhow, it's amazing to be able to understand another living spirit beyond mere words or language. Thanks for this Eckhart🙏
Best thing to do with waste food, feed the birds. Just don't do it near the washing line;
@@user-st7wb3yf3d Yes, it's the best thing to do with waste food, but they'll destroy your dazzling white shirts if they're hanging on the clothes line, lol. And plus, they do a much better job of keeping the streets clean than the council do!😉
@@user-st7wb3yf3dYep, lol!
@@user-st7wb3yf3d Indeed, lol!
Definitely not Bob, lol!
Baba is such a lovely and smart guy. I wish you the best and hope you get hired by Eckart. ❤
Love you Eckhart
I forgot the first question already??!! How lovely this interaction!
Maestro you are right the screen takes our energy
I agree about leaking energy when you are behind a screen. I feel empty when I watch for too long even when I watch "Eckart" or "a chick called Albert" that I by the way recommend too :)) Much love! Thank You! Better to see you and laugh with you even through a screen than not knowing you ::)))
Thank you very much for your teaching sir ❤❤❤
We need more people like Baba steering the evolution of digital technology/social media! We also need Eckhart to write the screenplay for 'Screen Soul Suckers'! LOL!
What a great guy.
Thank you! That kind of connection comes to me when I write poetry.
Thankyou 😊❤🙏
Lieber Eckhart, vielleicht findest du Bewusst SEIN in den Lichttexten.
Möge dein SEIN sich daran erfreuen.
ICH BIN unendlich dankbar… für dein SEIN. In Liebe Shahido aus Deutschland ❤
I believe that we all have a choice in how we use social media, and it can be used to "spread the news" so to speak. I repost the insights of Eckhart as well as other teachers who elevate our awareness. This medium can serve us.
polite and kind is what I aspire to all the time. i fail sometimes feel horrible when I do especially when someone is rude and aggressive towards me but that's just an excuse. if you are only kind and polite to other nice people when it's super easy to reciprocate then does that really make you one too? it's when people are putting me down and trying to hurt me is when i most want to practice goodwill and compassion. that's when it really matters i think but its hard and it hurts. but that's who I want to be as a person so I keep trying. thanks Eckhart for using your gifts to help people :)
I really needed the later advice because although I am very much physically and financially safe I am currently facing some inner questions on what to do to move forward... So I was reminded that I can move on by staying calm mediating and "the answer" will come
I want to thank you Eckhart I never tell people but your books gave me the ability to study over 40 languages. All because the Power of Now. As you say time is an illusion so all the languages are ALL being experienced simultaneously in my subconscious now. Since there’s no sequence there’s no perception of sequence.❤
🙏💜🙏 grateful for you 🙏💜🙏
I love how much you make us laugh 😂 ❤. Thank you
The words that always come up for me listening to Eckhart and his audience members: NOW and WOW!!! This was fabulous. That African guy was brilliant. I totally agree with ET about language. As a writer myself the words just come out naturally and normally, in other languages, too. Talking to others in their languages does the trick. Eckhart is so witty. He changed my life for the better. How can I not love him? ❤
From now on, whenever I mention Eckhart to someone, I'm no longer going to address him as "one of the great Spiritual Masters of our time" - I'm going to now address him as "one of the great UA-camrs of our time". 😄
Lol
This is so beautiful. Love and light to all the african brothers and sisters ❤🌻💚
Ser bendito... Gracias 🙏 💜 🙇🏼♀️ 🌈
This was great to watch 😊
Thank you for watching.
Love you Eckhart ❤ this was really great 😂 I really hope I get to go to ur event coming up in Vancouver
Nossa!!! Que “pergunta” maravilhosa desse rapaz! Vibrante!
❤ gratitude
Do you know why having an actual book in front of you is so much better than a screen? A book is tangible, there's a comforting feeling when you turn the pages of a book, especially if it is an old, worn book, and finally, there's a *presence* about a book and holding a book brings one into the Present. A screen feels too remote.
I agree! Staring at a screen for too long can cause us brain distortion and eye problems. Nothing like a good old book which is easy on our eyes and our brain.📙👍
On a screen everything is accessible instantaneously, that is why it is so dangerously addictive.
@@yurtiburti That's so very true, for I regulate my own use of it, and I have it to a minimum. It's also depressing to be uploading a tonne of information to the brain all the time. It can keep the mind in a constant state of overload which in turn makes it harder to stop thinking.
True. Eckhart felt energy going from the Self into the screen .Perhaps with a book the energy goes from the page into the Self.
@@bradmikes4540 Nice!
Gratitud infinita.
😊🙏🌸
Mestro!❤
Beautifully done! ❤
Dear Eckhart, maybe you will find BEING conscious in the light texts on my …. May your BEING enjoy it.
I AM endlessly grateful… for your BEING. With love, Shahido from Germany ❤
Thank you Eckhart

Apply your presence, instead of looking to others for answer.
Creative solution comes from presence and depth of being.
Ask the question, become still, drop the question into stillness.
Repeat the process several times.
Thanks Eckhart. 6 March 2024. 🌵💫🤡💰🌴⛵️🌵🚀🤡🖖⛳️💖🌹🐥🖖
Man some people will take 45 minutes to ask their question 😮💨
notice he always "forgets the earlier question/s", this,....IS part of his teaching, or more precisely, his way of being
🙌 fantastic
Gods word is universal
Beautiful.
Ask yourself the question and the answer will come up.
Now, or in one week or in months or.... ❤
Best video ❤
Great stuff. Especially if they can find a way for audios as well.
thanks eckhart
Muchas gracias E.T.
por EXISTIR
Thanks 🙏
Thank you for your support.
❤❤❤❤❤
Simply. Get rid of social media. And then you'll be able to be present.
What a top lad. Fair play
Hello Eckhart Tolle.💪💪💪🐙🐙🐙
Love abundance passion compassion Thank you Awesome Superb Money Faith Confidence
I agree it is all frequncy/energy - as per Tesla - freuency energy vibration. So yes...|I quite believe energy is extracted from people
yes, before language, Iam
I find that english works better for me than my native language - which is danish and as such quite a narrow languagearea. English is really good I think. especially as the videos are in english - you get confused reading about the same things in another language I think. So I think it is a matter of practise.
I love the English language even though I am Irish. I find it to be so tangible and Universal. But if we were all to speak only one universal language I'd choose English without a doubt.
English is of course a mongrel breed, every conquering Nation made their mark and left more than just their folks behind.
@@stephenflood3463 Gaelic I find more descriptive and full of depth. English has changed so much. So many original meanings have actually come to mean the reverse.
@@user-st7wb3yf3d Well yes, Gaelic is, but I couldn't learn it in school, it was too difficult. Different story if you are born and raised in a house where it is spoken fluently on a daily basis.
@@stephenflood3463 The English and the trail of destruction they left in their wake. Luckily, in Argyll, we still talk the old tongue.
10:48
Words are not the thing.
They are pointers, not to be believed in.
Spiritual proficiency in discourse doesn’t mean awakening.
Communication is sometimes obscured by concepts.
Thanks Eckhart. 6 March 2024. ⛩🐇🖖⛵️🍓🐎🌸🐥🌺🌹
Jesus Christ is alive and still breathing in the cosmos......
4:51 seconds to ask the 1st question
He wanted to be noticed
Team African wow thanks so much
Your amazing thank you
I know I am, thanks.
Bob is on the prowl again, lol!
@@stephenflood3463 Not prowling, merely window shopping.
@@user-st7wb3yf3dWindow shopping eh? and you're definitely looking a something you cant afford Laddie! Happy shopping buddy!🤣
🙏🏾 Amen 🙏🏾
❤❤❤
that's an interesting observation, that the screens seem to suck out energy, fix our attention and render us unconscious most of the times. Maybe it has to do, that the devices link us into the collective unconscious to some extent
It's very true that language can bring forth feelings. English for me is the key language thst I can express myself best. Croatian is so harsh that I shut down and completely disaapear. Hate my native language actually.
Also learning a trade is pointing - the movement / handling is it
I find anyway
