@@marlieeasley830 yes because there is very little content to what he says, he talks slowly and takes long pauses. The overactive mind will react to this in two ways. Either, and much more common, it will become restless or it will yield and become grounded in the present moment, which is basically the only true purpose of Eckharts teachings. The mind craves constant stimulation and that is what makes you feel impatient. That is a perfectly normal reaction and is why formal meditation can seem so difficult. It’s not easy and it takes practice.

Eckhart explains spirituality in the most simple terms out of anyone.

Being in lockdown, I struggled with the desire for online shopping. But I realized that this is the time to go within, reach for all the abundance that lies within me. And I found a wellspring of creativity, enabling me to write new stories. I learned that when faced with the desire for outside enticements, turn your awareness inwards.

Ram Dass says something similar.

with regards to what Eckhart was saying about awareness of a desire diminshing over time, I find that awareness alone isn't enough, that I need to have compassion, or self compassion for that part of me with the unmet need. Awareness alone, over time leads me to feeling very abandoned. Self-companioning is the anti-dote. Also, i don't know if she uses the same language, but, Russell, you should have Sarah Peyton on your program-- she's a neuroscience educator and teaches how to heal our brains by greeting our bodies with resonance (which is her word for what i call self-compassion).

Having said that though, I would absolutely love to meet Eckhart in person one day!!

Big changes. After returning home I fell into a deep sleep, a horrible depression to be awakened once more but not only to my own faults but to the actual state of the world. I've become disillusioned to so many things throughout this period of having felt like I was losing my mind and even though I'm in a "worse position in life" in general than I was one and a half years ago, I feel great.

Thank you Russell for this and I’m following what you have been sharing. I could feel you were transmuting some stuff while listening to Eckhart! I had tears in my eyes and goosebumps while listening to him especially the “enjoyment of being” ... always so timely. Sat Nam Wahe Guru. 🙏🏾🧘‍♀️🇦🇺🌳🌈

I love this ! I do that too just absorb “being”. Sometimes however I feel extra lonely and I want that special someone to share the moment with ..

I appreciate Russell's (massive effort ) making these videos.

Russel, I feel you when seeing you talking, my mind is chattering a lot and fast as well and so is my unconscious way of movement. It really helped me to be aware of consciously speaking more slowly or when like (as eckhart mentioned) walking to the fridge or some place that pops up in my mind, I try to go extra slowly. For example, try to go to your fridge in slow motion or when typing messages on your mobile, do it as if you were a sloth 😂 This way I reprogrammed my unneccesary fast mind to be more slowly when being unconscious, so I can more easily become aware and conscious again in my all day life :) Sense your feet when walking/ finger tips when typing. Simple practices like this really calmed my mind doing this continously and I feel more healthy ever since (they were kinda like the gate to treat stress related diseases like asthma and stuff) :)

Great teaching, guidance, inspiration,..., Thank you Russell & Eckhart. 🙏

Another wonderful being on our planet at this time , like yourself Russell, he is also here at this time for a special reason. Thank you both for sharing your wisdom 🙏☘

I agree, my most peaceful fun moments are spent alone, observing and contemplating. I don't have to go anywhere. Unfortunately we live in a world where if you just try to be quiet and live your life easily you will get run over, for instance by those in Washington DC on the leftwing for us here in the states and it's not peaceful to deal with, we constantly have to watch our backs and watch what's going on. But when I want to be calm and shut down that crap to have fun again, it's quiet reflection time. And the occasional piece of chocolate cake.

Being present in the moment 🙏🙏🙏

I've tried it all and nothing could take away that cosmic loneliness/emptiness that most people feel. you have to be honest with yourself, why is it that we will listen to every person who has truth but we will not listen to the person who said He was the truth, the way, the life and God in the flesh? it is because we are in darkness and don't want to come into the light because our evil deeds will be exposed. there is only one name in the history that is used as a swear word... kzread.info/dash/bejne/p46Y2I-NpMyzm8o.html

We find the hobbies that ignite our passions. Give energy and love to them.

This is an excellent conversation that is helpful to society no matter where you live.

Thank you! Love Eckhart...and you too💖

Excellent reminder from Eckhart, to just be. Be the observer of your desires and emotions. Be still in nature, and observe the world around you. Thanks.

Love this. Good advice to give your desire a couple of mins before acting on it. Great advice.

Truth is beauty . Love it.

Love this! Thanks Russell 😍

I remember listening to his audio books It really helped my friends and I to relax and just listen

I was in your shoes 3 years ago...tolle is watered down buddhism/christianity and a dead end. mindfulness is not going to take away that cosmic loneliness/emptiness that most feel. you were created in the image of God(body, soul, spirit) and the Bible describes how your body is the temple for the Holy Spirit(spirit of God). So you were designed to have an intimate relationship with your creator by being born again, and most people are trying to replace that by chasing after things in the world. kzread.info/dash/bejne/p46Y2I-NpMyzm8o.html

I too could not still the mind from its want to keep learning and knowing let alone the body that wanted to keep travelling deep into nature so my first experience with meditation following my inner guide was to make myself sit in a chair stay still for one hour and empty the mind of all thought, silence it…well the struggle that ensued…lots of sound effects going on lol but in a short period of time I began to be able to do it and then I began meditation music and I felt myself begin to become one with nature and that first year long time back now was one of the best years of my life within myself and my awareness changed and my positivity heightened and as much as I would have loved to stay there life beckons for us to continue on our paths and do what we do and be where we are…we are always doing and being where we are suppose to be for there we are learning and that to me is what life is all about….

I was in your shoes 3 years ago...you are missing a huge part of yourself - spirit. you are created in the image of God(body, soul, spirit). the body is the temple of the Holy Spirit(spirit of God) and we were created to have an intimate relationship with our creator. but most people don't want to hear it because they are in darkness and don't want to come into the light. the cosmic emptiness/loneliness most people feel is that spiritual void. you have to be honest with yourself, why is it that most people will listen to every person on how to improve their body and mind, but will not listen to the person who said who said He was the truth, the way, the life and God in the flesh? kzread.info/dash/bejne/p46Y2I-NpMyzm8o.html

Thank you for everything ❤

Let's keep sharing the light. Sending love to you and your dogs.

Thank You 🙏🏼 much love ❤

You are what’s needed now, your dharma is to be the person, vehicle, to reach many young people and making accessible to all very important spiritual teachings. Be wise, be fun 💛

Two beautiful souls I have watched this so many times I also love eckhart and Wayne Dyer together 😊❤️

I'm dancing wild with Michael Franti...stay human album..I'm happy tonight...great podcast

Love you both!

Good for Eckhart to have found this happiness. He is adorable and he deserves it. We all do. We all deserve this peace. If we go within, we will find it.

Mr. Brand, what I think about you is you're very helpful and sort of like a shaman through the spiritual, mental, and emotional worlds. And a guide in dealing with the physical world we may find ourselves in.

It takes some patience to get through his message, but totally worth it. I was skeptical of his “pain-body” description until I experienced a few examples of it.

Wow man, in the first 4 or 5 minutes listening understanding contemplating on what was being said I literally felt HIGH or mind altered. Day to day I put myself in an automatic mode and miss out on the things I should be paying attention to and noticing in myself and the world around. Thank you my brothers

there's a problem with your reasoning..."there is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death". what if you were on the wrong road in life, and you were just focused on paying more attention - in the end you would end up in the wrong destination. feeling high or being in an altered state is temporary, you won't find lasting peace/joy/love. that cosmic loneliness/emptiness most feel doesn't go away by chasing after things in the world. you were designed in the image of God, and were created to have an intimate relationship with your creator. but the problem is that we don't want to come into the light because we are in the darkness and don't want to have our evil deeds exposed... that is why Jesus said you must be born again where God supernaturally changes you and gives you a new heart/desires to live a holy life and your sins can be forgiven and you can make things right with God and have lasting peace/joy/love and the promise of eternal life in Christ Jesus. kzread.info/dash/bejne/p46Y2I-NpMyzm8o.html

I think that you're an inspiration to me and the rest of the world Russell :)

What he says makes sense. That is what I did and do, well not always, but I try to..It enabled me to also choose healthier options to fill that desire. Like buying organic soda instead of alcohol. Or playing video games instead and having a positive outlet for stress and pain and anger instead of drinking alcohol. That was important for me as I was, am an addict and became one as a young child. That action spilled over into other areas as well.

Always good interviews on here, you always get pearls from your guests I've not heard elsewhere. I'd like to see you interview David Goggins, think that could be interesting

Great smile! ♥️

I think you are one of the good human beings around Russell ❤️✨ thank you for what you do 🤟😍

I was in your shoes 3 years ago. theres a problem with your reasoning. your definition of good is subjective... compared to Hitler maybe but compared to some monk maybe not. what if your definition of good/evil and how you viewed yourself/others was off? what if you were on the wrong road in life, believing in a subjective definition of good/evil....when there was an absolute definition of what is good? at the end of the life you would end up at the wrong destination, even though you believed your ways were right. you can know you found the truth because you will experience it...truth is not some idea but it's a person. kzread.info/dash/bejne/p46Y2I-NpMyzm8o.html

I feel that I have always intuitively felt desires. It's somewhat a revelation to think others don't notice their desires or even that some people simply act on impulse. Very interesting.

That was such a good interview. It saddens me that if i share that video with my loved ones, they would not recognize it's value. I have to resort to learning the lessons myself and exposing them to it through my performance. Through verbal articulation and theatrical timing.

... staying present in order for the higher self to take it's seat. Managed to achieve this today with remarkable outcomes. Absolutely breathtaking experience. No mind alternating substances. Never believed in this before. Asked a question and was given an answer which made perfect sense. Answer came whilst journalling. Lifted my vibration to a point of clarity, compassion and understanding. 💙

Awareness leads to Freedom

I consider television and other external sensationalism as self-harm. It's not my world or activity that is going on in these media devices. Good questions Russel and i completely agree with Eckhart Tolle.

power of now changed my life

Typo in title, just wanted to make sure people can find Eckhart if they are trying. I'm sure autocorrect would fix it anyhow but still. Thanks for continuing to share all that you do, Russell and Eckhart.

legend is eckhart

Excellent!

Thank you 🌹. soooo helpful 🤗

I was in your shoes 3 years ago. sounds like you are seeking for "greater truth" like I was...being present will not take away that cosmic loneliness/emptiness that most feel. you were created in the image of God(body, soul, spirit) and were designed to have an intimate relationship with your creator by being "born again" where God supernaturally changes you and gives you a new heart/desires to live a holy life. the relationship that was severed due to sin is restored, and the spiritual void is filled and you can have lasting peace/joy/love in your life. most people don't want to hear this because they are in darkness and don't want to come into the light and have their evil deeds exposed. you have to be honest with yourself, why will we listen to so many people who claim to have the truth but not the person who said He was the truth, the way and the life. kzread.info/dash/bejne/p46Y2I-NpMyzm8o.html

Thank you for sharing Jai Satchitanand

Thankyou Eckhart 🙇 The way Eckhart says "chocolate cake" makes me want to eat chocolate cake 😂😂

Thank you

Meditation can come in many forms: artwork, sailing, gardening, etc all provide moments of a void where you are "lost and found" at the same time. If you have no hobby, it's kind of like when you get a good stare going and are suspended in time!!!

You are SO amazing and SO smart and articulate too. Thanks for your inspirational vulnerability💪🏻☺️👉🏻
