Eckhart Tolle is a spiritual teacher and author, born in Germany and educated at the Universities of London and Cambridge. At the age of 29 a profound inner transformation radically changed the course of his life. He devoted the next several years to understanding, integrating, and deepening that transformation. With his international bestsellers, The Power of Now and A New Earth-translated into over 52 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 Watkins Review has 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 awakening consciousness, which transcends ego and discursive thinking, and can be seen as the next step in human evolution. In the awakened state of presence, we discover what Eckhart describes as our essential identity-who we are beneath the surface-and its power for transforming our selves and our world.

To be Supramental is the key. It's a bit colder but at least It's peace. We are aware of our emotions and they don't control us anymore.
I love it when he says "Let's see what is the intuitive answer" and then he keeps silent for some time before he gives the answer. He totally connects with his higher self to receive the answer.
Interesting. It seems like he's saying we create it by disconnecting from the source, which leads to unconsciousness, and evil being done during those delusional episodes of unconsciousness. Dang. 🤯 If we stay in the present, we will know how to let those thought forms which may consist of evil things, pass by. The stuff I'm learning from this man is way more valuable than anything I learned in school.
lets hope, they will teach his teachings more and more in schools all over the earth. Imagine what a difference this could make
@@grunerfaden5223 It would develop a new generation that could be free of thoughtless beliefs and behavior by provoking the inner self to guide us instead.
@@grunerfaden5223 It was indeed taught in schools of ancient India. However, the British replaced it with "modern" education
you are very right school will not lead you to conscienceness.......its way deeper than that for me it was a war zone ...........it will wake you up but you still have to work at it but not as hard I believe ...........it could be a lost of a Son etc.....and other dramatic experience........... wish you all the Best my Friend

I wish everyone on earth could realize we are all one and that when we hurt another, we hurt ourselves.
We only align ourselves with the things we must experience in order to grow.

As the ancient saying goes "you can't con an honest man." Translate that as you wish

Should we not hurt others to avoid pain for ourselves?
It's not just Eckhart that deserves the credit for changing human consciousness. You, and everyone else deserve just as much credit as him. Human consciousness is changing on it's own, Eckhart has just been one of the most aware and a profound voice for this evolution. But we are all a part of it. I appreciate Eckhart and I appreciate you reading this just as much. Have a wonderful day!
❤ that’s right, he is just helping us to awake ❤
So are you saying that evil is used as a tool to guide us to conscienceness? I’m still not totally clear on this. 🙏
May we evolve to something beyond what we are now!
And it has been seeded and shifted by incarnations that became enlightened - Jesus, Buddha, Krishna, and all other ascended masters. They paved the way. The return of christ is now, through eckhart as one of the major western or even world spiritual teachers. And yes, us.
Exactly. Consciousness will be, and different containers will receive it differently but it always is ❤
Hi if you're reading this, I love you❤️
Sending you my love, my friend.

Thank you ❤️ your comment makes me very happy 😊
so evil is the reflection of me, my fears,my judges, my painful thoughts... If I can transform my fears the evil will dissapear..
i love it when after putting forward the question he was asked, he just goes silent, and start to download all of it, to give us the wisdom:)
I thought he was communicating in morse code for a minute.
Yes
Exactly
We are all love. We have to see our divinity. Go towards love. Choose love. See the god in us. Stay away from anything otherwise that has been created due to ego and fear and societal conditioning (evil) We have to choose our divinity. Choose oneness. The moment of power is our choice and that is in this present moment. ✨❤️✨

To experience joy, one must first experience sorrow. We are here to experience both in this place of duality.
Absolute RUBBISH! Any true God could create it so that you wouldn't need to experience the opposite. So are you now gonna say that God doesn't have the power or the intelligence or the love to do that? Can't wait to hear the insanity in your reply, that's IF you have GUTS enough to DEFEND what you posted.
It was never the Father's heart that we should experience any sorrow, just as it never is any earthly father's heart for his kids. We also are not here to experience both in this place of duality as you have it.
We are here to display the Christ life, to manifest Him and to be in a love relationship with the living Father and Son, as this is eternal life right here and now! John 17:3

When Eckhart pauses, I feel he is being given information from the divine source called God. ✨
yes, he has said that he is not thinking, when he listens to or reads a question, he feels the import behind the words of what the questioner is really asking, the crux of the matter,
sorry, words are tricky, but yes i can feel him being a conduit, a conductor of the message, not just a person sitting in a chair but connected/rooted deeply within to way more than a separate little self.

I am so thankful for you, Eckhart. The teachings that have come through you have changed my life for the better. This is a beautiful explanation of duality - thank you so much 🙏🏻
Why is it that these things he says absolutely resonate as true, within all of us to one degree or another, yet we still struggle to remember them when we most need to? Breaking our lifelong conditioning is such a challenge, but it’s probably the one challenge that’s most worth the difficult journey. I hope you all find whatever it is that you’re looking for. ❤️ ✌️
Well said. We all know yet many of us forget and need reminding.
Well said. The question why we still struggle and experience suffering after having heard an explanation that we really believe to be true is an important one. My way of thinking about it is that words acts as a form of a gate into a realm of knowing but is only a starting-point on a journey of transformation. Why are not words enough to change us? I believe not until this knowing have become part of our whole being wise words will still only hold superficial value for us. Not until every cell in our body knows it to be true we will still be torn between enlightenment and ignorance. The important thing is to enter into the gate of knowledge and wisdom and steadfastly walk the way of transformation through using the skillful means that many genuine spiritual traditions have given us throughout countless generations. This is the path we must all walk in order to return to the sun. By doing so we will be part of the process for the universe to become conscious and aware. This is the reason we are here now and our ultimate goal and meaning. Wisdom arise from within and points towards a non-dual reality. For this process of becoming awakened we first need to hear it from a perceived “outsider”, but in reality wisdom is a dormant reality that will arise from within ourselves. Wisdom is the transformation of ignorance and arise out of our own experiences. Only when we are able to transform our mistaken perception of reality will wisdom arise within us. That is the ultimate reason somebody else’s words are not enough to transform us, unless we happened to be on the brink of a final transformation anyway. Our own (mistaken) beliefs in duality, time and solid reality stands in the way of sudden insight and awakening.
Dark is merely the absence of light.... We take it all too seriously people.... Have fun..turn the light on..💞

@@robertcorderchiang3947 You tell me why not brother 💞
I love Eckhart. Through his teachings I have found my own inner peace
He is a wonderful human ♥️
Have you never tried finding it yourself by not trying?
Andrea Hoyos - what are his ‘teachings’? What is your own inner peace? How would you even know it is your own inner peace? Accord to what he says here he vaguely talks about that there is no separateness ... so maybe you are just assuming it’s your inner peace when you are just streaming a part of my inner peace at the same time? And what is inner peace? Is there an outer and an inner peace? Where is the separation if you are just a part of the whole? So many questions.... ? ;-)
TURBOCHARGER indeed, chasing inner peace is just another illusion you kid yourself with, if true peace ever comes it will be through an act of grace, not through trying or ‘learning’ (Eckhart has said this in his books), personally I’m still waiting’ for this act of grace, but maybe even that is a wanting/craving
Lo💓e, that warm fuzzy when you eat a cheese burger 😏💞
"The Timeless God is already complete and perfect , but it seems that in the realm of time, God is becoming conscious through all these life forms ..." very profound understanding
I don't quite understand this... if God is complete, whole, and perfect - why would he need to become anymore "conscious" than he is presumed to be? Or am I missing something here? (I assume that to be the case lol). I love Eckhart and I "get" most everything he usually says; but I've lost the plot on this one here lol. It is indeed profound. Can you elaborate if possible?
@@siadawn I have felt some confusion with this too. All I can understand from it is maybe a piece of God is within us and through living through us He is learning how to be perfect in time. But once we pass away we understand that God is already perfect. Idk, I think the whole concept of living in a realm not dictated by time is also hard to comprehend at least for me
@@siadawn i feel like Eckhart meant that God has all the knowledge there was is and ever will be. So, in a way God also knows how and what we see, hear, feel and experience. This means that God is already Perfect but in some Islamic philosophies it is said that God experiences His already Perfect Self by experiencing Himself through His creation.
I think this is by the poet rumi
God said "I was a Hidden Treasure; I loved to be known, so I created the creation in order to be known."
@@azilius5302 And also having alll the knowledge does not make the god has the experience of them. Having the knowledge of holding a hammer and actually holding it have big differences. We're all reflected particles of god that belongs to the whole (as we are not just a particle but the whole himself) having experiences that he already knows. As in the earth, experiencing the material knowledge, and and in other realms other knowledge scope is being experienced. This much I know and able to understand.
There was god... He wanted to know himself as there was nothing else rather than him to be a reference, and created his reflections experiencing themselves, and he got the knowledge of himself.
Good and evil are two brothers with different fathers warring over the right to the conscience ....
Luk 17:34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.
Here they are: Jacob unconverted.....Israel converted.... same man
Gen 48:2 And one told Jacob, and said, Behold, thy son Joseph cometh unto thee: and Israel strengthened himself, and sat upon the > bed.
Love, joy and laughter! We are here to spread them!❤️🙏
So well put!
Evil is but a brief stage of consciousness realizing itself. It is part of the continuum of source consciousness. It is full identification with ego.
Brilliant insight!
If I had to give an answer ...
Evil is the product of the ego mind, as opposed to source mind. When we are one with source, we no longer create evil.
So what of possession, channelling, or blud sacrifices, we've been told, of, then? Not all of that looks of human, origin, either, @Mike Q ...
Excellent answer MIKE! But ego mind is also created by the source mind.
In the beginning when time did not exist there was one infinite consciousness or spirit, then a part of that consciousness had a thought, that thought was, what would it be like to be separated from God, that part of God that had that thought was us humans and some others, but no one can be truly separate from God so we are experiencing the illusion of separateness and of course to be separate from light you experience darkness and that what is call evil.
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
marvkojo kojo
......Sounds like A Course In Miracles.
If a part of consciousness had a thought creating separateness and therefore creating evil, then the answer is Infinite Consciousness created Evil?
only *Divine* knows the path to Pure Beauty
In infinite conciousness there are no parts that have an idea separate from the whole. All that is known is known by all. Either the whole supports the idea or it didn't happen. Both is true
"The end of separateness is the end of evil." A beautiful realization and explanation of our search and desire for Oneness.
"Don’t let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers of this world, rather than from Christ." ~Colossians 2:8
"For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
" ~2nd Timothy 4:3
Kind of like Joel Olsteen and the rest of the other naughty serpents,
what about the gospels of Thomas, it shows Jesus speaking literally about what Eckhart is speaking about. It is not official canon but you have to understand that it was humans later on that decided which books are canon hundreds of years later
Bingo you said it correctly woohoo @@pgmstudios55
The best explanation I once read was that God was like a full glass of water. In order to “see” what He was, He made the glass half full so He could compare existence to non existence. In other words Form or a relative universe of opposites. When we’ve forgotten that this relative universe is an illusion, we judge everything and give it a degree of meaning of either good or evil. I like to think of us all playing a video game and forgetting we are the one holding the game controller and not the character on the screen. We didn’t die, nothing is right or wrong it just is.
"Or may be just watching a video game ..." given that we do not consciously instigate the ego-based impulses that we identify with
A great topic indeed, and a big thanks to Eckhart! While our minds struggle dealing with a non existing time and our strong perception of it, our souls (photons in the metaphor) keep being one with Him (Sun), not to achieve consciousness through form, but to create through choice. No form no choice, choice creates, getting back to Him is the goal. Without the duality evil is part of, there could be no choice. Once we remember we can always, instantly choose, we learn that choosing for love creates love and get us back to the source, choosing for form keeps us here and creates experiences we define as evil. Simple, yet obfuscated by our lack of faith.
This is a beautiful explanation, especially about how evil is not actually real. I had an experience with what I feel is Christ Consciousness and I know we all get to the same Oneness in different ways. But it came to me how what he is saying is true in an experiential way. For him to articulate it is such a blessing.
Hello. Can you elaborate what you mean by saying evil is not actually real?
@@peshang9329 truth is what's real. So love, peace, joy. Evil is a natural process of not knowing the light. So once awakened even the memory of evil is forgotten and it's just like a dream.
@@dexdeux There is no devil, there is only human psychological conditions. Devil is only personified idea to illustrate the evil inclinations in human psychological conditions . In psychology we call this "the shaddow". It is misunderstood. Devil is actually you a part of you that is imbalance.
Take for example lust, it is both good and evil depend on the circumstance, your parents lusted to one another and then your were made. If you lust on which is not your wife not good according to your values.
See that? Yet everything is neutral it is just how we interpret things.
I must disagree. Evil IS real. Get to know, really and truthfully know , a dog then you might be able to see that evil is real. Dogs are NEVER evil but they are sometimes treated SO evilly.
That is a a silly word Christ Consciousness, Christ means anointed one, metaphysical weirdos just made up this word. Grow up and use your head. Bet none of this helps you with career and relationships because you are to busy thinking you are close to God or universe or infinite wisdom.
A perfectly explained answer, once we realized WHAT we truly are, then every human perception and definition falls away....we are pure consciousness experiencing itself in dreams ( illusions )......
I wish you all here everything of the best with your families and loved ones for the remainder of the year and beyond. Thank you Eckhart for providing us with guiding us with your knowledge, we are learning.
All good wishes to you too, my dear friend.
The whole secret of the universe is in the Now
At least its all there Really is.
sai harsha You understand that this is incredibly hollow? Just sounds good without saying anything? What exactly is ‘the whole secret’? Why do you assume there is even a ‘secret’?
What is the universe? And how would you know that the secret (which you clearly don’t know or it wouldn’t even be a secret) of anything is just in the now?
The whole spiritual movement is full of just absurd claims trying to sound like they could mean something.
Most of the wisdom I read here in the comment section could literally be created by and AI Programm mixing up those ‘spiritual insights’ at random and and rephrase them in ever new combinations - but void of any real meaning or full of deep wisdoms... whatever angle one might be looking at them.
The archetypical wisdom one can find in the Bibel are way more tangible and applicable than these types of random ‘insights’
@@ReformedWhiteKnight You'll know what the secret is if u are completely in the now
@@saiharsha2736 We are always in the now. When I am writing this I can't be doing this in the past, and I am still waiting for the next hour to arrive. We are in the 'now' by default! There is no secret! I could argue that by trying to make this into a secret you are trying to take away the power for others to realise this simple truth ;-)
Btw I would argue that time itself is not linear so that past, future and the now are part of an everlasting trinity, a circle and hence what you do right now has already had it's consequence on you ... you just don't know it yet. So the saying of (instant) karma has some truth in it, although I tend to understand it more from a christian perspective.
@@ReformedWhiteKnight the portal into the unmanifested is in the now. That's the secret . U can't find it elsewhere
God is consciousness and the human ego is an aspect of this consciousness. It is the ego which creates evil nothing more. The illusion of separation creates the egoic desire for enemies. It is ignorance of our true nature that is the driving force for all evil in this world. If humans fully realised their true nature then evil could not exist. There is no seperation, there is no other, there is only you and you are everything.
Bingo
MY_OWN_PRISON Reticle theres only one thing happening, consciousness/god/infinity/whatever fancy sounding word you prefer. Separation, the sense of self, is in fact a construct built and perpetuated by the default mode network in the brain moment by moment. It can be deconstructed “over time” via meditation, the rediscovery of oneness if you will.
Jeff Nirenberg So is he saying that our life purpose is to deconstruct that illusion and help others deconstruct it in themselves? That our purpose is to achieve purity? Is that not desire/aversion?
Andy Millington - I am sorry but this is just word salad! And there is nothing you could actually do to show any even a small aspect of what you claim.
smooth wit it i dont know if purpose needs to be brought into it, but sure, the desire for truth i suppose. Do you have an aversion to desire?
This is an answer similar to my previous comment, coming from Eckhart Tolle himself. An excerpt from Power of Now:
"It seems that most people need to experience a great deal of suffering before they will relinquish resistance and accept - before they will forgive. As soon as they do, one of the greatest miracles happens: the awakening of Being consciousness through what appears as evil, the transmutation of suffering into inner peace. The ultimate effect of all the evil and suffering in the world is that it will force humans into realizing who they are beyond name and form. Thus, what we perceive as evil from our limited perspective is actually part of the higher good that has no opposite. This, however, does not become true for you except through forgiveness. Until that happens, evil has not been redeemed and therefore remains evil."
Boom!
"Evil" is our interpretation of circumstances we deem negative in nature. A truer framing would likely be found in the word "contrast." In this wonderfully crazy realm in which we find ourselves, contrast is utilized by the Big Guy Upstairs as a propellant of sorts in service of assisting with our spiritual growth and evolution. So, God created contrast. Humankind, through judgment (and conditioning) may perceive and label this as "evil."
@Damian Lopez Took me a long time to reach this realization, brother.
@Troll Mctrollerson amen.
This is true only in part.... because something that is pure Evil....is pure Evil, there is no interpretation on this. We do interpreted every experience in different ways, because we are different, and also because we have different backgrounds and cultures, and evolution too. But there are extremes that cannot be interpreted, they are what they are, and from my prospective we must find a common sense of view on this if we want to create a new peaceful world.
@Damian Lopez If we wish to evole into a kinder and more peaceful civilization we must shine a bright light on evil and not allow immunity to wealthy, titled, religious, or any other person/s involved in crimes against others through a justice system that is ineffective in deterrence or that can be paid to overlook certain violations. I realize the value and beauty in meditation, presence in the now, choosing to detach from the thinking mind, examining and not living in stories, but I also cannot turn a blind eye to the suffering caused by evildoers whether they are categorized as with premeditated intent, unconscious of their deeds, or mentally ill, these perpetrators cannot continue to wreck suffering and havoc on others without serious consequence.
It's true GOD created evil and good both....in order to test human beings which of them choose good and which of them choose evil
I wish you all happiness and consciousness. We already are one so, I wish you all joyfulness in our oneness! Peace, love and light to all!
There is one human that can explaining such things. Eckhart thank you.
Be YOU tea Full teaching Eckhart! THANK you. May the integration of COMPASSION/LOVE.. of the Christ Consciousness within, and the Awakened mind of the Buddha.. UNITE, and connect us all together again in Wisdom, Peace and Awareness. Namaste and Warm Aloha from Hawaii.
In fact, if evil exists at all it is because we are separate, that we have forgotten our true nature. It is our separation which is so very painful that it engenders us to flail out against each other, to try to control other, to hurt other in our unbearable sorrow. As a child psychoanalyst, I realised that ALL bad behaviour has its root in emotional pain. There is only pain, and the only answer is compassion.
what is our true nature?
I agree to some degree….
We only label “bad” and “good” due to our innate selfishness as humans. From god perspective, there is no such thing as “evil”. This is the truth that emerges if you have a non dual experience . And is disturbing for the average human being
Thank you Eckhart.

Came for the answer to the question...stayed for the relaxing voice, lol
So are you, sweetheart
"When people see things as beautiful, ugliness is created."
Absolutely
Nothing is bad untill identification started..
sounds like something Lao Tzu said in The Tao Te Ching? Fingers pointing at the moon...word pointers
So if I see you as beautiful with your ugliness , then does ugliness even matter ? Like if we see that we are Human trough eyes of being does being imperfect human matters ?
It's all good , or its all bad . But there is no in between , no opposition - no sides , no polarities to be defended .😌
We consciously or unconsciously see beauty as a manifestacion / expression of god consciousness. In form we recognize balance/ proportion and symmetry as beauty a manifestation of love. In absence of these qualities we see "ugliness". However through God consciousness we do not judge but strive to perfect /improve perception of form to higher manifestation of beauty in form as altready given by nature.
"I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things." Isaiah 45:7 (KJV)
Perhaps evil is simply resistance to Divine intention, which is allowed because of the possibility of transforming evil into something life-giving and beneficial. For example, the energy of my anger towards another can be transformed into compassion through understanding. The elements of the earth…soil, seed, manure, etc...,can be transformed into a beautiful rose. Instead of just looking at the manure, awakening may be the ability to see the possibilities included in the bigger picture.
🧐 It’s hard.
@@dixieandkurt Sin to God is disobedience to His will. So yes, resistance to divine intention and creation.
@@sisko3893 obeying God is resistance. it's impossible to not have resistance. otherwise, you'd be God
@@dixieandkurt
for your rose to flower it needs to 'not be the manure' but itself. They are separate things. Your analogy is fuzzy but its logic is flawed

Evil is created by us!
You better believe it, all day every day
Stay on your path!
You don't need the thoughts, they are not your true self anyway. You are.
You are the pure consciousness. There are many of us that are pure expressions of consciousness, no thought required. It can be done. Let the guiding path of intuition guide your actions, not the thoughts. Staying balanced and aware overcoming the hurdles will lead to ever greater enlightenment. The hurdles (ego backlash) exist to lead you to greater enlightenment and resilience, everything has a purpose.
God is sooo wonderful and incredible and so naturally enjoys nothing more than hearing people argue the toss about who he is and what he does.
"The more an entity is identified with form, the more seemingly evil the entity creates and the more suffering is created."
"Why are we here? We are here. Here is the arising of the answer. The answer is not just the answer; is also the end of the illusion of separateness and the end of so-called evil."
Thank you.
Straight answer vividly is" No"
More like yes
@@samanthamorrison333 plz listen last few sentences carefully. Even cumulative effect of whole talk suggests the answer as no.
@@shakilahmad2152 evil can be defined as complete identification with form = Illusion. Entity creates Evil and suffering. But the entity is the complete identification with form. Form is created by awareness or by mind which is created by awareness. So is evil directly created from awareness? No. Is it indirectly created through an illusionairy entity which is made out of thoughts and emotions which the mind creates which awareness created. Yes
@@samanthamorrison333 God is not good or evil just like the sun shines on all, God is love and in all, good and evil is man-made not God, its what separates us from God thinking things are good and evil.
@@ssoma151 thinking things are good and evil but actually good and evil does not exist. And humans do not exists either. And nothing else really exists. It is all awarenesses creation. But awareness or god is in all of its creation.
Evil is not created, it is a consequence of having gained free will. We choose evil sometimes over good.
Define evil.
@@mikey6214 There will be a definition per each of few civilisations that exist on the planet now. A better question would be: which definition is true?
Can you Explain free will and also explain what tolle says i couldn't grasp one thing
this is only the first part of the answer, intuitively I will add that after the illusion of being separated from oneness evil it is also the illusion of the believe to be superior to others, superior to nature, stronger than God (this my experience as a former Buddhist forest monk) 🙏🏼
God / source is unconditional love, evil is the absence of love.
One cannot create the absence of itself.
Evil is the consequence of free will and free choice not direct creation .
So the short answer is no, source did not create evil, for there is no evil inside god
All is in god but god himself is empty
Well said!!!
Absolutely right !
Thank you great explanation ☯️💚
And the longer answer is yes. In manifesting free will, the potential for evil is also manifested. If that potential did not exist, then evil would also not exist. So while there is no intention for evil from the source (in a timeless sense), the desire to manifest free will is stronger than the desire to manifest no evil. Thus is seen the connect between love and free will, that to love is to allow for the possibility of evil.
What a beautiful, wonderful and great explanation! Your are great, Eckhart Tolle! Thank you for sharing all the time. Blessings.

Yes right in the GARDEN OF EDEN..there stood the tree of GOOD AND EVIL BLESSING AND PEACEFULNESS
I like the metaphor of the movie and the TV screen. Any movie we choose to watch is shown to us through the technicality of the screen. The screen is completely neutral about what movie plays. Could be a love story, an action story, a horror story,. Whatever you want to experience. It is not the screen that chooses what movie will play. You choose that. The screen lovingly shows you what you choose.
It is always the same screen. The horror doesn't change the screen even one bit. It only adds to your experience.
You might be addicted to watching horror. Don't blame it on the screen. Remember that you chose it and choose again, my friend 💞
PS for advanced seekers 😊
The ultimate and final choice is to identify with the screen. Then the question why evil exists falls away.
God created free will and that allows both good and evil. God is love though.
Oh so true. I agree wholeheartedly
I love you Eckhart. Thank you for your time and energy. Your words and being have allowed me to see my own. Thank you.
I love you too Evan heart🌹
Love is the answer. It’s sustainable for the whole entire universe. Consciousness is the Source of light and love because it eternally works. But energy from consciousness is likely in infinite frequencies from being very high of such love to very low of opposing love which we interpret as evil, to fear, hate, not care, and lust which is false love. But true love is allowing every being of source free will to choose love or go against it. But our world must collectively choose love in order to be a wonderful world instead of what it now is. I send light and love to the world! 🌟❤️
Yes. This resonates with what I believe. Love is the highest frequency and maybe same as Grace. Which entails mercy and concepts like compassion for those who are victims of darkness. God is not indifferent. We are created to reflect the image and on a journey to recover it fully. For me, it is the image of Jesus, who role-played it for humanity and culminated it all thru resurrection from death itself which beat the effects of time and this dream for all eternity.
'Give evil nothing to oppose, and it will disappear by itself' -Lao Tzu
The evil in vast aspect of world is really not this simple ,
@@atashakgem Explain further
why cant he just say: i do not know the answer to that!!!
According to Tolle, God is "complete" and "perfect" outside of time. How did God not know what kind of damage it would do itself if it ever came to time to take on forms? Did it not know it would lose its awareness of itself and cause great suffering to itself? And why did it ever come to time to take form in the first place if it existed in "completeness" and "perfection" outside of it?
Those people who didn't search for answers for the miraculous reality of life have always been the happiest. Those who heart commanded them to " know the truth" were assisinated by "God" those ignorant have always had bliss.
Separation leads to indifference to other's feelings. Compassion leads to consideration. If people lived by the golden rule:" treat others the way you would like to be treated" then obviously that would result in utopia. So why do some people separate from acknowledging other's feelings? Lack of self love that prevents them from loving others which results in indifference? They say, "hurt people, hurt people". Any thoughts out there? I would love some opinions/insights....
Hello!
One can be kind to others before one is able to love because kindness is the result of a disposition. Love is kind but is the result of a conscious connection to source.
There are souls who have no disposition for kindness because they strongly or completely identify with ego.
Kindnesses may be the result of a certain level of awareness of the other. However, for many they are the actions of the ego mind.
Love, compassion, empathy, forgiveness are virtues that effortlessly manifest only when the soul is one with source.
Your experiential dynamic, your spiritual ecosystem, is a reflection of you. The outward will transform as the inward transforms. Tend to the root, and the fruit will manifest on its own.
FYI a utopia doesn’t exist by definition
my mind is blown. this makes perfect sense
Brilliant insights...theologians have been wrestler to the ground by such questions for centuries...your few minutes of insights gives a more satisfactory answer than hundreds of thousands of pages of left brain analysis...thank you E.T....you are a blessing.
To anyone: in order to understand about God, reading the Bible is needed, from Genesis to Revealation or from "Old Testament" to "New Testament". Because without reading the Bible, you cannot understand it. Before, since i hadn't yet read the Bible, i know i believe there is God but when i started reading the Bible, i felt illuminated inside or enlightened and my faith become even more stronger. I didn't even expected to shed tears while reading it and felt so connected to the devine spirit. My burdened or the weight i carried has been lifted, the pain, anger/ hate vanished and wounds become healed. There is something inside of me that's been awakened spiritually and my negative thinking/anxiety was gone.
What happens when all things become fully conscious and there is the overall awakening?
Heaven on earth
Kassiani Douka ♥️ but there has to be other beings besides on this earth...and if we’re not individual separate consciousness, then how is consciousness limited to just earth? I’m confused. Also, if humans on earth become awakened then what is our next step in eternity? 🤔
@@itsmia5902 if there is life on other planets in this universe, which is very possible, and if there are other universes with other living forms in them or other dimensions with living forms in them, which is also very possible then their awakening is also neccesary for all the creation created by awareness to remember that they are awareness which created them. Then all will fall back into only being. The collapse of all creation back into itself which is only being and being aware of being aware. But in being aware the quality of creating resides therefore awareness can rise anytime soon to create again. The uncreated awareness is the only thing that is real. Everything that arises from it is awarenesses creation. The creation can never exists seperate from the creator but the creator can abide in its own being not needing to create only if it wants to because it can. So awareness can be by itself not needing its own creation to be. But all creation is made out of awareness by awareness through awareness, is ultimately awareness disguised as the world.
Kassiani Douka Thank you for this amazing reply! I’m going to read it about four more times. Then I may have some more questions for you. 🤗💛
I have a feeling we are the cells of a body yet to be born, and that body will be the next you. Your next incarnation. Kind of like the whole universe is collaborating and becoming conscious in order for you to be born in your next life. Planets and galaxies the cells of that body forming.
Yes, the source created everything, light and dark, yin and yang, etc. There cannot be light without the dark.
Sun and moon are given as signs in the bible.... Sun has no darkside, no shadow of turning. For us to be one with God, we must give up our rock 😉
Yin and yang, light and dark are all part of the ego illusion. So that is a true statement when viewed only from the limited perspective of this physical earth plane, because you are not seeing the whole picture. In reality, there is only light. There is no good and evil.
This I innerstand. ❤️
@@othervideos4002 if anyone kills your family out of spite how does that feel to you? Neither this nor that? Like..., Eh! Ok then.
Other Videos not even light
" the end of the illusion and the end of so called evil! ' those that have ears to hear let them hear!
2- He did not answer if GOD created evil but twisted around it.
I love his pace. At first it seemed too slow but after a moment I felt I meshed with his pace. He brings you in if you let him.
yes, he speaks with the heart. even his silence has a sort of meaning because his words are so secondary to the message.
A perfect explanation of this simple, yet complex question
So many people misunderstand what he is saying, Its very enlightening. I wish some would just listen a little harder.
Only the ego can be perceived as evil. God did not create the ego, you made it yourself and it doesn’t really exist because it is only a arbitrary cluster of thoughts and feelings; that is why the ego can be seen as illusory and can be unmade by you wanting to have it unmade. You wanting to undo the ego is the beginning of the end of “evil”.
I like Eckhart, and his teachings. I like just watching the thoughts and feelings and getting present. But I don't like this answer much. There has to be another answer for this question. "All the evil in the world is due to God getting to know himself" just not sure about that.
he was looking for the answèr as if from somewhere so may be he was not fully in the space of Now that is y
He struggled with that answer.
The question, "did God create evil". Is a great question. But first, is there one consciousness which has created everything? And if the answer is yes, then yes "God did create evil" sounds simple enough to me. Then we can ask why. And there
are oh! so many theories, as to why.
bruce feeney Sounds simple but intuitively we know better, right?
We label evil as evil and good as good. Is it all ONE in the same to the Master creator?
@@moony77 I'm not sure what your saying. Are you saying good and evil are the same to God. Because, to humans good is way preferable over evil. And if your saying we need evil e.g., wars, famine, painful diseases etc to enjoy the good things in life. Well I gotta say, that plan/design sucks. In my humble opinion.
Evil or unloving acts that sharpen the illusion of separation in order to harvest energy without equal regard to the seeming other. Consent is given through naivete or fear, thus ones own personal power is given away by believing in the illusion that the doer is attempting to sharpen.
No evil can exist when there is no fear.
Yes! I love the way you broke it down.💜
Yes, only Good is associated with God and evil is not created by God but when we're not aware of our true self it is the ego that manifests and evil is a menefestation of mind
We are creating God while God is creating us 🤩🤩🤩🤯🤯🤯😘😘😘
Thank you so much...your books, teaching always resonate with my heart and your beautiful podcasts continue to inspire...Namaste ❤❤❤
Everything has purpose. The purpose of 'evil', suffering or darkness is to take us back to ONE.
'Evil, suffering or darkness' .. we can never connect any of this with our Creator, as all of this got its offspring the very moment Adam ate of the Tree God warned him nót to eat! His (Adam) sences were switched on and from thát moment on the human race lives from the darkness of his soul, his own thoughts. And this was what Jesus has come to save.. our souls, our wrong thinking! Matt 18:11 'For the Son of Man has come to save that which was lost'. - which, not whó!
Evil comes from humankind choosing self-reliance instead of God-reliance
To wrap my mind around the scheme of things, I look at it like this: “God” did not create “evil”, that which is called “God” is evil... turned down. Pure Consciousness is the “God” in It’s highest form of energy. As the energy filtered down, it became energy at the lower end of the vibration creating an illusion of separateness and all the emotions and human habits connected with emotions. To accept the Now would not create opposites (or emotions). ... Blessed Be everyone- my Love goes out to you.
That’s quite an interesting way of looking at it. It resonates with me even though the full ramifications of what that means for us on Earth at this vibration are hard to grasp.
Thank you Eckart! I want to tell you that my dream said evil is
the way to awaken the earth.
God is the King of all Kings🙏👑🙏
We are all God
If we are God, why are we all to face him on the day of judgement? Why did the Lord give us laws to live by? Wouldn't we all be holy and free of sin if this were the case?
Brisco Crisco Who told you you had to face God and have a judgment day?
@@SEB78765 Yahweh
Brisco Crisco Sorry to be ignorant but what’s that?
Isaiah 45:7 - "I am YHWH, and there is none else. I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I, YHWH, do all these things." This was, of course, written prior to the Jewish people being taken into captivity in Babylon, during which time they first came into contact with Zoroastrianism and the dualistic concept of a devil, after the Persian Empire conquered Babylon. After several centuries, they evolved beyond that and began teaching that it was just the personification of the Yetzer Hara, or evil impulse or inclination inside each one of us.
Profound and wonderful. As far as God is concerned all I have ever experienced is Love...
Another answer would be 'Do you create evil?'
Your teachings are so thoroughly spoken, 🌻
Everyone and everything is ONE. The good and the bad, we choose. We are all equal. Follow the golden rule; “Do unto others, as you would like others to do unto you. Let’s all be more tolerant regardless of our differences. God is having a different experience in all and everyone of us. 💗
He who still sees good and evil is not resting in himself.
*God created*
*E V E R Y T H I N G*
Counterpoint: God created nothing; God IS everything.
@@Protector0ne
Counter-Counter Point: including *evil* ...
Yes, I have found that evil does not exist but in our perception of things, as is -- good. Is-ness is... Neither good, bad nor other. On a humorous note, God is having quite a dream, playing all the parts, ...and do we not reflect that when we dream? Somewhere in all this seriousness is a great laugh. 😇
how does God know it's in a dream, being roles and playful or it's in the real state of God?
"evil does not exist" - ? Those Norwegian girls that got beheaded in Morocco believed that also, and look what happened as a result!
We are created with an inner knowing of good vs evil or a two year old would never tell a lie! Children know the difference.
I will tell you what i was told when i returned from a near death experience and remembered "God." Which is weird because i didn't have the understanding that i was part of God, or Source if you'd rather but did at the same time..so the consciousness that came to me that i now realize i was birthed from came as "father" i suddenly remembered him/source..like an explosion i could see the universe before me. I said without words "how could i have forgotten you" i was answered, " because of free will, if everyone remembered they would never struggle or suffer.."i was given information and understanding like a remembering as this "conversation"was going on.that this is how we evolve it's a type of evolving that can only happen in this form. That all of our experiences when we leave form return to it and add to the greatness of the whole, Source/God. I was shown like a map or maze and at the bottom where we begin and depending on what path we take there are obstacles, but eventually ALL paths lead to source. Back from where we came. I remember thinking i wasn't living up to something, to the "glory of God" i was thinking in a way..i felt ashamed because the part of me that didn't remember, was still there my" human mind" i suppose and feeling that all i had done that was hurtful and wrong could be seen by this father/Source and immediately i felt pure Love and joy never ending, kindness and never judging. It was made known to me that I would help many people in this lifetime using all I'd learned and been through physically as well as spiritually. Dealing with dark entities whatever they may be among many other things. But also that i would still suffer more. I had been shown this several times and once even had the choice to continue"carrying this cross" as was shown me so i could understand. That some of us must suffer and evolve so others can also be saved through what we've learned. The newly awakened I'm thinking now. I have read and believe were given exit points. Basically when life is too hard a near death experience will present itself. The first time i was revived and sent back with extremely powerfulpsychicgifts i was not ready for our wanted at the time so i ran from them and drowned myself in substances to dull my senses.. The second I'm aware of, two angels saved me before i was run over. The third i was hit very hard and fast by a truck and when i hit the air i had a choice to live it die and asked to go home to my son, to live. I miraculously got up after i awoke on the ground and although I've suffered with chronic pain I found light again and got clean. I'm experiencing a healing. Then after 6 months of chemo i had the expirencei just told you about. Each time i had an awakening of spirit and/or abilities. ✨Take what you will from this. I was ment to share and you to read it. Thank you Bless you. I have profound love for you so love yourself because if i can love you unconditionally and i don't know you,you surely can. There are so many amazing people that are commenting on here I'm so blessed to read them. I was inspired to share💜🙏💫✨
There's no evil, just unconciousness.
