    Дорогой Экхарт, пользуясь возможностью хочу выразить Вам сердечную благодарность за все Ваши книги. Я прочитала и изучила их полностью . Ваши книги помогли мне увидеть , почувствовать! разницу между эго и Я- есть. Я поняла, что такое тело боли : личное и коллективное. Увидела как мыслеформы, созданные людьми обесценивают и навешивают ярлыки как в личностном, так и мировом масштабе .
    Слушаю ваш канал с автопереводом на русский язык, живу в Украине.
    Спасибо вам за всё
    Любя, ❤️

    Wow, the clarity delivered in this message...in recognizing and understanding how discord and victim mentality among people, or within oneself or in the identification within groups of people is exceptional. What a truly profound message from a brilliant man! Thank you so much Eckhart Tolle! 🙏🦋💖

He mentions the Oilers and that tells me it's some years old, which I find even more inspiring because it reminds me that crazy things have been going on in the world, due to humanity being trapped in the mind, forever.

      It's not about denying conceptual knowledge or thinking, it's about not letting your mind make you believe that thinking is your whole identity. Realizing that the mind is just the tool, not the self. It's paradoxical, since we are brought up to this world as beings, only to grow up and identify with thought, and is with those same thoughts that we need to learn to be again. It's a test where the thinking mind needs to realize there's indeed a thinking mind, and a whole self behind it waiting to be discovered.

      @johngreen4683 thank you for your observation John well said 🤭the deeper I get into all the practices I feel like it’s all simplifying. Siddhartha by Hesse 30 years ago I felt such a profound shift in my thinking(checking overthinking) opened the door to then 10 years later going through a divorce and picking up PON !! No words need to explain it - golden key - door to the void- mind opening ! Life death, the pulse that connects everything an we will return to the void and we are already in it. Life and death are repetitive - as is our everyday experience . Get up go to work etc .. seasons. I strive embrace and absorb the fractals of existence- but of course get distracted by the BS. Tolle brings back the focus with the sound of his words and they have the same theme almost the same meaning but the LAYERS of knowledge ! Magic !? I work in health care so the victim identity is my life work to guide people away from. One finds themselves identified with the diagnosis. Of course solidifying the disease. But we aren’t just our physical bodies, we are a “spiritual being having a human experience “
      How Tolle’s work come to you?

    The universe is infinite energy. The term "empty space" is totally incorrect. Space is completely full of ENERGY. As you sit in your living room the space in the living room is exactly the same space a billion light years away. If it wasn't you're be able to pinpoint where one but of space joined another - but of course that can't be done. This universal space/energy is the Absolute, The Totality, and it patterns and shapes to apparently take different forms but never is anything other than universal space/energy.
    You wouldn't use a knife to join things together - it would be the wrong tool. Trying to "understand" what's termed enlightenment with the mind is using the wrong tool. Just feel the fullness of the energy in the space AROUND you - not in you. Feeling the space in the body just exacerbates the contracted energy inside that creates the feeling of being a separate entity. Feeling the energy AROUND you breaks down the artificial barrier of the body. THIS IS IMPORTANT. As soon as the space/energy is felt (even if it is just one foot around your body - which is the same as the infinite space a billion light years away) Oneness, Peace, Joy and Happiness will arise. It's that simple! We spend our whole life not noticing this infinite space/energy which is all around us and IS us. It's like this - Two fish in the ocean - one says to the other "I've been swimming around all day looking and looking but I still can't see any of this water-stuff you keep talking about.”

      This is not the space Eckhard Tolle is refering to. ;) He refers to the "spaciousness" which is not explainable, but somehow noticable by itself. This physical energy you are speaking of is within this "spaciousness". So the terminology "empty space" is space without anything but itself. You my call it "spaciousness" or consciousness/pure awareness without any content or border and totally unbound. Seek it in yourself, find it and be free.

    The Father is God alone and by himself (Isaiah 44:6; 45:5):
    God possesses Jesus. Jesus is God's glory, splendor, and greatness-but he is not God himself. The Holy Spirit is also possessed with God's power and spirit, but just the same as Jesus he is not God himself. All who truly belong to God are also possessed with God's power and spirit-and we cannot be God himself, yet we are told to *be perfect, even as our Father is perfect* (Matthew 5:48). God lives and walks in all who belong to him (1 Corinthians 6:16).
    However, our God is a jealous God; no man will ever enter his kingdom thinking there is another God besides him, the Father. The Father sent his Son into the world so that we may know both him and his Son (John 17:3). We are not to change them around or make them to be equal, for the Father is greater than _ALL._ Repent.

      Why do you need all these words instead of just being happy as a child and keep it forever?

      Jesus is God in human form. You completely missed that crucial detail.

      @@aammssaamm I see; you rather listen to what someone has told you instead of learning the deep things of God, thinking that you will live happily by knowing only a surface level of God's commands.
      Repent and allow the Holy Spirit to guide you.
