    Absolutely spot on as usual! Having long-term chronic illness (m.e, fibromyalgia and arthritis), I always say if I don't rest, my body will find a way to make me rest often "minifests" as a back injury, shingles, chest infections, sinusitis. Once I started realising this and consciously making time to rest I have had longer bouts of better days. ❤

    I have had chronic daily pain for more than 20 yrs. I have tried sitting with it, accepting it, etc. It never ends. And when I release a block there is a period of time the pain really intensifies. It is hard to endure. I wish there was more on this topic. There is suffering at times when I get mentally overwhelmed, but most of the time it's just physical pain that never ends.

    Thank you Ekhart, this makes sense......I've had chronic pain/discomfort all my life really until several years ago when I healed myself through mind over matter and doing energy work on myself. The painful autoimmune disease is over 95% gone (no more meds!!!!) and my painful lower back is better than it's been in at least 10 years...and my lower back is getting straighter
    Others too are benefiting from my formula and healing themselves. We cultivate the frequency of heart and blend with the mind (Heart-Brain Coherence) to unleash our superhuman healing abilities locked within our dormant DNA..and it WORKS. I'm living proof. doctors said I'd never heal...and of course it ALL. starts with PRESENCE! Namaste

Of course I have videos on my channel and I actually did much of my healing before I found out about Dr. Joe Dispenza but he’s the best for my money when it comes to understanding the mind, the heart, the ability to heal yourself, also, he’s a quantum physicist, an endocrinologist though his doctor read it in chiropractic medicine I do believe. Of his many great books you might be interested in one called.”You are the Placebo” which talks about how the mind is the number one factor that determines whether we are sick or healthy. That’s of fortune.

    I have recently experienced the onset of chronic back and neck pain. X-rays, CT scans, and MRI's provide evidence of degeneration and damage in cervical and lumbar sections of my spine. I am still exploring medical interventions and have not exhausted the possibilities. I still have hope for a fix or cure - or, at least, a reduction in my physical pain and psychological suffering. It is, at this time, very challenging to cope with both. I am trying and haven't given up. My best friend had similar physical pain and suffering. He could no longer tolerate it. He committed suicide a few years back. Now I better understand his pain and suffering. I am, however, determined to cope, survive, and, hopefully grow and evolve beyond this.

      I posted above before I saw your post. I just had back surgery 2 weeks ago. The original pain is gone. There are now minimally invasive surgeries available that can really help with your problem. You just need a competent surgeon - not easy to do. I found one surgeon who proposed a surgery I knew was wrong. I found a second surgeon/opinion which proved to be right.... the first one was a quack and would have performed a failing surgery that would have made it worse. I am grateful for having the foresight to get the right surgeon. God bless.

I also created my neighbors being manipulative and unkind to show myself that I was allowing external events to control my inner state of being. I asked for people, places, and experiences for my soul's highest good and that's what happened - I am grateful for these lessons as it has led to realignment!!

      Be grateful that a back injury and a few unconscious people were all you manifested. With apologies, I confess I have created a predatory corporate government power structure controlled by psychopaths that tortures and murders people worldwide, poisons the air, water, and food down to the molecular level, makes basic medicine unavailable while coercing people to inject themselves and their children with poison, extorts and outright steals trillions of dollars every year in the U.S. alone, imprisons millions, and all the while gaslights the population with nonstop propaganda and outright lies which a significant percentage of the population seem to believe unquestioningly. Apparently I did this on an ego level to feel superior, and on a deeper level to practice being able to accept what is, regardless of how horrific it appears. My apologies for any suffering I may have caused. I am now in the process of manifesting a better world. Until then, remember that it's all part of the Universe's Perfect Plan being perfectly executed.

    Seven years ago I broke my back in an accident. It prompted me to find God and Consciousness and I became aware that I had chosen it. I am grateful now that it happened even though I have been in pain ever since. Two weeks ago I finally had surgery to reduce the pain. Today the original pain is gone and the only pain left is the surgical wound which is expected to heal with a little more time and rehabilitation. Now I am doubly grateful, I found both God/Consciousness and healing. Thank you Eckhart for your explanation. It agrees with my experience of suffering.

    My body is dying I am living forever. But the pain and suffering feels real to me. Most of the time I can go through it. But to be honest there are times I feel like Jobe and cry out my God my God why have you forsaken me. And every time I do that God is there and brings me someone that will help me. And most of the time that person comes into my life to hear this truth. We are not this body but the I Am that is the witness to this life we live. I am able to share this truth with them and help them in some way. And this brings me great joy and out of my suffering. And again learn and see we are here to serve. So my pray is, allow me to suffer I know I can take it for you are with me. ❤

    Just when i needed this. I have been dealing with intermittent pain on the right side of my head. It terrifies the hell out of me. Especially when it's night time and i actually am a socially withdrawn person which makes it more difficult.
    My thoughts get very dark at night and i can't stand myself anymore There's so much pain within me. I can't stand me anymore. I don't want to be me anymore sometimes i withdraw from my thoughts but that's not always the case. My hands were shaking because of the fear that ache was instilling in me. I felt all my energy had been exhausted because of the constant trembling in my heart of the apprehension of something wrong is going to happen. I feel so lonely that's why i am sharing here. And so when the headache on the right side of forehead went away i was still scared because i didn't want that pain to come back again. And when the persistent headache came back it was scaring the hell out of me.
    It's as if in my natural state i am meant to be calm and composed but the moment that headache strikes me up, all the insecurities and childhood trauma and loneliness and the shallow thoughts wrap around it.

I am familiar with suggestions by the Christian tradition to reflect upon the pain and suffering of Christ and rest in His pain and suffering. And see if that meditation and resting in Christ Presence provides so relief. I will do that. I already sense it will help me. Thank you, Eckhart.

    Beautiful, Eckhart. Reading the 'Power of Now' about 10 years ago, I came to know the difference between physical pain and psychological suffering. It may take a while for bodily pain and disease to heal. It may take its course. It is not really in our hands.
    But psychological suffering is not like that. We can be without suffering right now. It is we who are holding on to suffering and not the other way around. All we have to do is let go of it. The moment we drop it, joy arrives.
    Sri Bagavath Ayya, in one of his teachings, says that we can look at physical pain as a 'friend'. As somebody who has come to help us. This attitude can lead to acceptance and peace. Pain is not punishment. Not to be looked at as an enemy.
    Thank you for your kind wisdom, Eckhart. 🙏🙏

      "pain indeed eats up your ego"....Thank you, I'm looking at it the same way myself. Physical pain doesn't go away with stopping thought, so it requires different tools. I try to look at my body in pain and say, This is not me. Just like my thoughts create a false sense of me, so the experience of pain creates that false sense as well, but in a more physical form. Seeing pain as a means to eat up another level of ego is very freeing. And it indeed does eat up that other level of ego -- the body level which says "this is me." It's not.

I knew when I found Jesus my life wouldn’t be easy because I would have to give up on my sinful life style and follow him. I’m a single mother struggling to make ends meet. Since covid I have been struggling to get back on my feet. I lost my job for declining the vaccine. I declined due to my pre existing health conditions, lupus and heart disease so now I’m having a hard time providing for my children. Both of my sons are special needs. I’m overwhelmed I started homeschooling them due to bullying. I’m waitressing and I’m happy to be back working but I’m not making nearly enough to get by. I have nowhere to turn no family nor friends. No hope. I have been put down and mocked, over my situation. Prayers are all I want. I’m so ashamed and so embarrassed so please be kind. Every month I struggle with my children I’m barely making it. But I still keep faith. Praise Jesus. Please hear my prayers. I have faith God will continue to provide.

      You have nothing to be ashamed of. You're currently dealing with many things at the same time.
      Better days are to come, take one day at a time. Interestingly, whenever I was going through a very hard time being grateful for the little things really helped, it might help you too (once I said I was grateful for the pain, and interestingly enough, the pain lessened after I said that). I'm sending you virtual hugs!! You're very strong and very loved, you've got this!💕

    I have ehlers danlos syndrome, POTS, MCAS, severe TMD, hypothyroidism, severe asthma, Atlas subluxation complex and CCI, Raynaud's syndrome etc and so many more comorbities if these conditions all rare, genetic and no cure, I've had over 17 surgeries for joint repairs and other conditions and I'm 28. I've suffered with chronic pain since age 9 so it's all I know, my gifts and talents were ripped from me in highschool like dancing since I was two and being in the highschool drill team to snowboarding and drumming etc once my EDS start fully showing up in high school and I basically lived my whole hs experience on crutches and wheelchair, couldn't and still can dance anymore or snowboard nor drum because of my hEDs and pots. It's been rough trying to understand it all asking many a questions like why woudl god take away my hobbies and talents I was so gifted in and utilized for the better good of my mental and physical health I was in the very shape of my life in hs I did all the sports made my basketball team but couldn't play because of blowing my knee out, did track, soccer, volleyball you name it I was a very active outgoing person and now I don't even recognize the younger me as I'm the complete opposite and miss her a lot and especially dance and snowboarding they helped my mental health to express my emotions through art of dancing and just shredding the mountain and fresh powder with my favorite music blasting, getting in the zone, I'm also adopted and feel guilty for my parents going broke because of my
    Health issues when my dad made a. 6 figure income and then almost lost everything because of me. I've been on a spiritual journey for some time trying to find my purpose and the reason for it all, I've come to slowly realize or feel that everything that's happened is for me not to me and supposed to be used to tell my story which this isn't even scratching the surface of my story either. I'm also a mom to the sweetest 2 year old boy who has excessive energy and it's a struggle just to take care of me let alone myself sometimes but he literally saved me and has changed me life for the better Im so thankful and grateful for him and he's slowly taught me to be in the present moment which is something I've struggled with to be present and emotional connection to people due to a lot of trauma, my chronic pain has been so hard to manage and deal with most days but others I'm so thankful for it as it's taught me a lot! It's happening for us not to us.

    Vipassana meditation ( 2500 years old) . Basically it what this guy is teaching. Come off your addictions and meditate by scanning your body. Witness with equanimity all sensations. They will rise up stay for a while and change. Solidified sensations take time to break down. Our pain has made us unconscious of our bodies. As the pain is basically burnt off my consciousness we become more embodied dissolving the ego.
    “Accept it as it is” not as you would like it is the mantra of Vipassana. It really doesn’t use “ think you have created it” Acceptance in the moment is key..

    Id go further and say that all human suffering is chosen, we seek it, we only need to stop not seeking it, by being aware. There may be physical pain in the now but there cannot be any suffering if you live in the now, or at least be aware of how we choose suffering. A lack of inner peace is the leading cause of physical pain as well.

    I just ended my first relationship a month ago, I am dealing with a great pain. I'm doing my best to get up and live like I normally do, which I've been doing very well. Does anybody have any tips on how to deal with a pretty bad breakup during my awakening journey.

    • @markfuller
      @markfuller Рік тому +1

      _"Does anybody have any tips on how to deal with a pretty bad breakup"_ Usually we overvalue others by what we perceive they've bring to us, complete within us, make real what we alone can't. You don't need anyone to complete you. If you find someone who is awake & properly boundaried as you should be, maybe your existence could be better than it otherwise would be alone. But, you should master/accept the alone first. If not, there's usually something going on with "needing" someone (improper boundaries). If you're not comfortable with yourself living your own life, not needing anyone else, that will arise with someone else. They won't be good enough to meet the need you put upon then to meet.
      It's hard enough to be "relationship material" yourself. Finding _someone else_ who is awakened, not "needing" someone else, is that much less likely.

      @@markfuller I understand what your saying, I could be wrong, but for me I don't feel that I need anyone. I have a deep, deep want to have the companion ship I had with this person back, not necessarily with the person I just ended it with. I would be fine alone, but I think at some point I would get very sick of being alone and want the companionship of a relationship. Just some thoughts I had.

    • @markfuller
      @markfuller Рік тому +1

      @@aidangutierrez5736 That sounds reasonable. But, "at some point I would get very sick of being alone" may contradict "I don't feel that I need anyone." To the extent that you'd be sick (especially _very_ sick) suggests needing someone else to fulfill you somehow.
      In Buddhism (what Eckhart teaches is from that with some personal or new-age spiritualism), life is synonymous with suffering. The word suffering is better described as incomplete, unsatisfied, unsatisfactory. (Even when we are satisfied, it's impermanent and contributes to the next bout of resentment of the moment as it is.). Craving & clinging are the sources of this suffering. So, being sick of being alone is likely rooted in craving (something other than what you have). If you had what you crave, you'd feel complete -- until you're not complete again.
      I think you'd have a better relationship if you were comfortable not having one, not feeling sick being alone. Since you are un-partnered again, spend the time awakening. View it as an opportunity to understand more about why you're sick alone, why it's not good enough.

    While you have the pain, practice conscious suffering.
    Buddha teaches suffering and end of suffering (transcendence).
    Christ is archetype of suffering. The cross becomes the portal to transcendence, total surrender.
    💖💡🌍🕯🍁🐧🍺🍁🔥
    If pain is used consciously, it can burn up your ego. See pains as purification.
    This applies to both physical and psychological pains.
    Suffering is psychological resistance on top of unfavorable physical experiences (pain).
    Most sufferings are self generated rather than happenings and natural causes.
    🌍🎈💡🍍🔔🌀💖🌀🔥🕯🍍🎈
    Don't ask, “Why did you manifest that”?
    Accept it as if you have chosen it. Then the resistance goes.
    🔥🌍🔔😇🕯⛵🌀🔥

    People do not manifest physical tragedies consciously, they aren't even aware of how they manifest psychological ones, although if you can get them to wake up a little then they may be able to discover the process and stop. The great majority of the thoughts we have are designed to self-harm. So you get them to start paying attention, woe is me, and their prophesy always comes true since they are choosing and even insisting on it. With the physical stuff, it's always about trying to become more awake, easiest way to avoid needing tragedy is to simply become aware of the true self and throw away the historical one we cling to without merit.

    It's impossible to believe you manifested chronic lyme and multiple co-infections (20-30 embedded ticks) from decades of working with wildlife, essentially being helpful but ending up with hopeless condition that drains all your money after both traditional and alternative treatments to no avail and ignored by medical field for getting any help at home when homebound. You have to be very rich or very poor to get perhaps get help. I was raised in metaphysics since the age of two, worked in the medical field for over 35 years, and the new agers that preach it's just what you manifested only make the person feel guilty 😤 perhaps I did choose it in my life contract before I was born, but that doesn't solve the pain or problem, the "acceptance" of that may help, and it is true that it is not what happens to you but how you react to it that is most important! We need more empathy in this world, however, essentially you don't get it, until you get it!

    Can you discuss Jewish cultural insights on suffering, ego, and chronic pain? Especially since Jesus is a figure/narrative appropriated by Christianity. And since Christianity has driven some of the most incredible atrocities and crusades across human history whereas Jewish people never stop experiencing and learning from suffering, especially inherited trauma from the Holocaust, pogroms, and other antisemitic movements.

    "One of the greatest fictions of all is to deny the complexity of the world and think in absolute terms"
    All that Ulrich does is to perpetuate the tendency humans always have had throughout history to try and find meaning in superstitious beliefs. He loves quoting, making references, to Jesus and Buda - he forgets that, if these figures did exist in reality, they did so in a time where the vast majority of people 99% were completely illiterate, died of starvation and disease at the age of 30 (if they were lucky to live that long), they're governed by superstition of the kind where the earth was flat and an eagle was a God. They believed in everything they were told.
    In other words that's what Ulrich teaches goobledigook supernatural superstitions.
