Going beyond the Thinker | 20 Minute Meditation with Eckhart Tolle
Eckhart explores the concept of awakening as a process of un-learning, the vast dimension of consciousness that is beyond thinking, and entering the gap in the stream of thinking.

All ADHD is is one looping thought constantly labeling/judging the mind for doing what it's wired to do. I was diagnosed by a 2 psychiatrists with ADHD but realizing this helped quiet my mind and I no longer need any medications. ADHD is not the mind wandering constantly (the mind is supposed to do this). ADHD is essentially a negative thought loop coupled with the judging of one's own mind for doing what it's meant to do. Hope this helps. Namaste 🙏

Be the consciousness that is watching and don’t respond to any input from your mind. You can do like the zen masters “Enter zen from here” and raise the finger. Be aware of sight, touch, smell and the sensations from the body. Whenever you feel that you are again in the grip of thought, just move your attention towards the sensation again. To illustrate better how the movement should be, it’s not something you should be running from but like you were walking down the road and suddenly you remember that it’s from another direction. So you move towards that new direction without thinking and just walk fully present.

I can remember being like that at 17 nothing was ever going to make me not happy I was driven by the idea that it was the only way. At 26 I got married
This afternoon I got so fed up experiencing all sorts of thoughts that kept incessantly arising. I tried to stop them but I couldn't and became so annoyed. Then I realized that thoughts are just arising, it's just nature doing its thing through the body/mind. In fact this person isn't a person, this is just nature appearing as a person. There's no person here doing anything, it's all nature doing things, sitting and drinking coffee, thinking thoughts, moving from here to there.... but it's all nature (or Life) doing these things through this "apparent" body. It's NOT possible to remain still except during periods of sleep and meditation, and after sleep/meditation the mind eventually becomes busy again. I can't fight life, there's no such thing as controlling it through processes and practice. Life will do its thing regardless of meditation.

However, once you have the felt sensation that you are not that separate self with all its worries and petty concerns, the body-mind tends to less identify with thoughts, especially the stressful ones about aggrandising or defending the fictitious self.

Love this! Also great starting from 18:58 In ancient Greek philosophy, they often use the term "the good." What is the good? Where is the good? And, of course, we know what it is and where it is. The good is not in the world of form. The world of form is good and bad. Nothing stays good for that long. It either disappears or turns into its opposite. The good is within you, and it is the formless presence, the source of aliveness, of joy... the source of identity, the sense of who you are. The source of that is beingness, presence. Spacious awareness. I am.
The unspoken words are the most powerful moments in life. Our minds have been overstimulated for so long, we must relearn to just be in the moment and not contemplate anything. The magic happens in the stillness of the mind. 🪄🔮✨🙏 Thank you Eckhart you are a godsend.
This practice is phenomenal. Completely understandable to the human aspect . Thank you so much .

Prayers are all I need so Please pray for me things are difficult on me at this time. As I continue to struggle putting groceries in my refrigerator and paying bills. I keep my faith in Jesus. I know God will see me through this hard time. Both of my children are autistic, I’m overwhelmed at times. Thankfully I put all my trust in Jesus. I lost my job as a social worker at Forsyth hospital because I declined the vaccine. I declined because of my pre existing health condition lupus and heart disease. I was denied my medical/religious exemption. I wish I could go back to the hospital but the mandate is STILL in place for hospitals that participate in Medicare and Medicaid. I’m waitressing and I’m so THANKFUL to be working again, but I’m not making nearly enough to make ends meet. I get harassed and called names for simply asking for prayers, but prayers are all we need, because God hears ALL OF our prayers. It is JESUS that gives me strength to keep going. I have faith God will provide. He HAS THIS FAR. WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE! Please pray for me and my children.

'Going beyond the thinker' I find so full of power as I try to 'embody' it...Eckhart!you should be in all our Universities... one professor made the remark that he, as a young man had attended four universities yet not one of them taught him the art of stillness! I am reminded too of T.S.Eliot who said for us 'there is only the moment and ridiculous the waste sad time stretching before and after' I see you as one who was sent at this point in time to translate or decode the words of Jesus to 21st century audience...your take on 'kingdom of heaven' is profound...what you call the 'inner spaciousness'! You are good news for humanity! Míle buíochas (Irish for 'thank you') to you Eckhart! B

Relax into your heart and body, and simultaneously focus on presence itself ❤
The most dreadful thing is for human to know himself only as a thinker. Beyond doing, there is something more vital. That's being. To access being, you at least need gaps between thinking. Even a few seconds of cracks are good for peace and joy to come through. You can never sort out your life's "problems" by doing. 🦆🦆🕊🐞🐞🦋🦋🦅🦅🐌 Without thinking, you still exist as conscious presence. You can be aware of conscious space even as you think and do. Then you can enjoy life every moment. Joy comes from deeper space, is not dependent on spacetime happening. 🌲🌲🌻🌻🌻🌷🌷🌹🌹🌹🌿🌸🌸 You go through life embodying two dimensions, form (thinking and doing), and formless (presence, conscious aware space). The conscious aware space interpenetrates the world of form. Form is emptiness. Emptiness is form. Form and formless are one. There are two of you. One operates in spacetime. The other exists as conscious presence. You can observe how dense or spacious someone is. Spacetime is high density. Spacious presence is light. 🦅🦅🐌🐌🐌🐞🦆🕊🌷🌷🌻🌻🌻🌹🌹🌹 Humans can never achieve perfection. Persons always have limitations. Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect (Matthew 5:48). Jesus refers to deeper perfection in wholeness (spacious presence). Ancient Greeks refer to "The Good". The good is not in the world of form, which is both good and bad. The Good is within you and formless presence, being-ness, I AM. 🦋🦋🐛🐞🐞🌲🌲🌷🌷🌻 You are Spirit. You are God. That's why you receive this video. Thanks Eckhart. 4 December 2022.

The thinker of thought is also a subtle thought. Ignore thoughts completely, they feed on your attention to them. Going deeper, even your attention is a movement, the power of attention is perceived, by what is it perceived? "My attention", so it arises from the root thought "I", from where does this I arise? It is from Silence, from Peace. When the mind rests permanently in Peace, that is called sahaja samadhi, the natural state. Also called liberation or mukti, Maha Mounam or great Silence. You are everywhere and are the basis of everything (Shiva Sarveshwara). "Manjusri asked, World-honored one, what is the state of the unconditioned? Buddha said, The absence of thought is the state of the unconditioned." Let there be peace, joy and love among all beings of the universe. Aum Shanti Shanti Shanti. 😃❤

Yes yes, enter the void. Refuse to engage the mind, and before long that great space begins to reveal itself. Rather, you as the great space emerges. The mind will recoil at first, running back to safety. Its fine, just push a little more each day and slowly the machine dissipates and that you merge with eternity.
