I was/have been feeling troubled about someone dear to me. After watching/listening to your video, I am able to identify that I am telling myself troubling thoughts. It is freeing .. it’s like phew! It’s another troubling story I’m having .. I can observe it & diffuse it .. listen to the soft rain outside .. I feel less troubled & more peaceful after a struggling few days/weeks - Thankyou & peace be with you Eckhardt 🙏❤️🙏

Eckhart inspired me to write my own book and I use many of his teachings in my therapy sessions. What a great man!

Believe in yourself and in your journey. Trust that everything happens for a reason, and that every experience - good or bad - is a stepping stone towards your highest path. Keep your heart open and your mind focused on your goals. Remember that you are capable of achieving greatness, and that your spiritual strength will guide you towards success. 💜🦋 Remain positive and keep moving forward...🦋🦋🦋

Thank you, Professor Eckhart. A big hug from Italy.

What I find fascinating is how all the major scriptures point to this concept. Many shades of awareness, finite being one of them.

To whom it may concern, to who selects and edits videos to put up on this channel, a few months ago there was an upload where Eckhart Tolle mentioned that he was going to visit a prison and speak to people imprisoned there. I would like to ask if you could please upload a clip of that on here when you are able to in the near future. That would be extremely interesting to see. Thank you and please keep up the amazing work that you do for this channel. Take care.

This is my favorite so far, because he talks about Oneness and addresses how science is the study of matter instead of the unseen. I really enjoy these realizations.

...🙏✨... Not having THIS certainty firmly in your heart and in your feelings is truly madness. THIS madness allows and endorses all the vulgar and obtusely materialistic violence that we have before our eyes every day and that we very often have to suffer or in some way pay for. All this blindness causes so much pain and immense injustices. However, our undeterred heart rests solidly on the only certainty that exists and that goes beyond the veil of death: that the CONSCIOUSNESS that we are, dominates over everything and everyone and that is where we dwell. In reality death does not exist and all the evil perpetrated will blush with shame and cry out a desperate forgiveness... Immensely gratefuI ✨🙏💓

Thankyou Eckhardt for your healing words. A Sunday morning meditation. For a long time I have thought of the human race as a giant mirror ball, all one and each person is a tiny piece of mirror, made up of the same substance but with a different view of the world.

Thanks dear friend

Presence is prerequisite of all experiences. We are all expressions of One Consciousness. There isn't my consciousness or your consciousness. 8:01 The timeless expresses itself gradually in the dimension of time. The Universe is spiritualized. Realize the timeless dimension within you. Your mind and body are limited expressions of the Spirit. Science wants to reduce everything to matter, the seen. 🌻🍨🌻💖🔔🥁🎈🌍💡 15:00 You derive your sense of self from your body, thoughts, emotions, and self talks. Some are controlled by a big thought you call God. One big thought, gigantic ego, that controls other thoughts. That's dysfunction. Be aware of the Spirit in your immediate experience. It's simple to know yourself as Spirit. Can you sense that within you that is looking? The energy and consciousness that make the looking possible, the simple presence? Thanks Eckhart. 30 April 2023.🏖🏇🥅😎💖🐘💰🌀🎈🎈💡

How nice would it feel to dream happily for like.. years and then just come back if you wanted to, buddha said the whole secret of existance is to have no fear and i get it that's why i like knowledge so much there's always a true pure intentional meaning behind everything like it was all planned for good.

Жыл бұрын

Don't identify with the emotions. They're real, but they aren't you. They'll pass & you'll feel bad later for reacting as if they were real. It's not something to fight aginst, resist. Just acknowledge it and let it pass through you. Observe it. Practice mindfulness meditation (see the 1st video in my playlist. That one worked for me). The goal is to individuate your "self in the moment" from your "self thinking, reacting, explaining in the moment." Just observation and knowing the difference. As you practice this (over months) it will be something you can get to anytime, not just formal meditative practice under ideal circumstances. You'll be _familiar_ with the observer and the thinker, and can observe anytime, know the difference, dis-identify with the thinker and what arises from that. You may have practiced identification with thought/narration for decades. It doesn't stop instantly. The above is a way to practice something else. It will take time. It's not about "trying" to make it happen, or "winning." It's just accepting what is, and observing it. Then you know what's real vs what's the story you tell yourself (and you react to). Something that helped me was to realize that our subconscious (95% of the brain) produces the conscious experience (in 5%). This happens with about 1/2-second delay between the moment as it happens, and the moment we experience (emerged to us from the subcon). Through that guided-mindfulness meditation, you're putting yourself at that brink of emergence. As you practice/familiarze, it will be more present in your mind that you're on the receiving end of what you're observing -- a little late too. You can consciously apply your own 1/2-second delay of observation (before instantly idenifying with what emerges). Exercise a veto power of what you emerge. Fair is fair. It's emerging with some delay. You can be in no hurry to react to it. You can't get in front of it (it's behind the veil). But, you can exercise some observational pause. Over time, you'll know that that turns out better than being reactive, ashamed, fearful, reactive again, shamed, and so on.

​@@hejo6876 I'm glad that resonated with you. Learning about how our conscious experience _emerges_ (5% from the 95%, half-second after the fact) was really powerful to me. It's one thing to cognitively understand that's how it is. It's something else to _realize_ it in the moment, that you're this negligible portion of your brain, emerging from the significant portion -- a little after the fact (1/2-second doesn't sound like much. But, use VLC player's "j" & "k" keys to add 5000ms delay between audio & video. It's a jarring experience and humbling to realize were's that "not there" in the moment. It adds to the reality that we aren't consciously producing our conscious experience, it's _emergent_ from behind something we can't access. The goal of mindfulness is to think less, recognize you're thinking, don't judge it, just observe and know. In time you become seperated from that mental activity. You can choose to not think about something for a moment (when you realize you're in that mode). The above topic could become a new topic of thought. But, the guided meditation video I mentioned has you focus on your breathing, sensory inputs (sounds, tactile sensations). It also has you notice when thoughts enter your mind. Knowing how that works (the continual process of "selfing" from the vast part of the brain we don't have access too) is as real as how you breathe, hear, feel something tactile. When you notice your breathing, you're there, notiching it. There's no story to it even though it's a process occuring in the subconscious (you don't choose to breathe. You can, but normally don't). When you feel something, same thing. Thinking, or expaining your experience to yourself is the same thing (and emerges from the subconcious similarly). We're receiving it, not consciously choosing to do it. For me, realizing that (emphasis on "real") made the meditation more real. Like I was really there at that brink of conscious emergence. Not that I thought about it. Just that, when you're doing that meditation, there is a sense of being "there," "what's happening. Your presence among it all." To me, being "there" was more real to me. The thoughts were more recognizable as emergent. Like a breath is emergent. It's in that place of being (knowing the observer of what emerges) that the "space" begins where you can dis-affiliate with the emergent experience. I.e., instead of taking it as real (realtime), I could be more observant in realtime, more aware of the emergent thinking in realtime, and then ultimate (over time/months) less reactive. More "I'm doing it again. I'l end up regretting reacting this way. It's just a lifetime habit. I just have to choose not to. I know from past experiences it will pass through me. If I engage with it as if it's real and necessary, I'll regret it for a long time. So, ... nah." (Less conversation that way, more "not reacting" as a reaction. It's like we're laminated to our emergent experience. Mindfulness, finding that "space," is like de-laminating from that stream of self/thinking/narrating. "I'm not it. It's not me." It rises and falls, but the observer remains the same.

@@hejo6876 Similar t what I said, find some optical illusions online. Spend some time looking at a couple & realizing that it really is happening (your brain is "filling in" in a way you'd never suspect). _That_ is happening in many ways, not just vision. Just like a "sensible" image is "produced" for you (one that looks better than literal reality), the story we tell ourselves (that emergent sense of self, explanation of our experience; what we're "laminated" to without knowing what it is, thinking it's us because it's always there) is more of that delusion. When you consider the scale (5% from 95%), it's like the "selfed" experience is almost nothing, yet to us (laminated to it) it's the entirety of reality. To me, orienting myself to reality this way (this is really how our conscious experience happens) made guided mindfulness more experiential as reality. I understood more about what I'm observing. It's a little destabilizing, but it puts you right there at the brink of emergence. From there, you can delaminate (create some space between the automatic process of selfing which we tend to accept as real. Add some delay in order to observe and be present, not just react like it's real, in realtime. If it took 1/2 second to emerge as real, I can take a second to consider what's an illusion, or reaction to illusion, or compulsion, etc. Just that brief pause between observing and action. It has to be practiced because we have an entire lifetime of habituating spontaneous reality (that doesn't exist). It takes time to habituate a more realistic approach to our emergent self. That guided video I mentioned seemed to fit with this view. It puts you there at that brink. Your breath & sensory input comes from the subconcious. You can chose to breathe, or touch something, or listen to something. But, what it's guiding yu to do is is observe it happening (emerging entirely from the subconscious). Thoughts (the story or explanation of ur experience) does to. But, unlike breathing, we get all enmeshed with it. Imagine if you were hyper-aware of each breath. "There it is again, now breath 100 times more! Short, long. Long short. Make it like morse code!" That's what we do with our emergent sense f self (thoughts, the story). It's emerging as automatically (non-volitionally) as breathing. But, we're like moths to a flame when it comes to that. We can't stop being enmeshed with it. Between realizing (emphasis on "real," making it real to myself) how our conscious mind works, and that particular guided-mindfulness med video, everything made sense to me. You're finding a bit of space between what emerges and what it's emerging into. There's a part of you that isn't emergent that way (habituated, compulsive, out of sync). Just like there's a part of you that breathes, and part that is compelled to breath necessarily. There's a huge space there because you're not compelled into frantic breathing as a routine. You're establishing a similar space between emergence of thought and the compulsion to be frantic about it. :)

Let's break this down, as my understanding of it. Prerequisite, ie( dict) a thing required as a prior condition for something else to happen or exist. So what is the prerequisite mentioned here for all perception. Perception being awareness of something through the senses ie the neurophysiological process by which an organism becomes aware of external stimuli which brings it all down to physiology the branch of biology that deals with the normal functions of living organisms and their parts. So from where did the Prerequisite derive from for all perception ie for prerequisite to derive, it must have had a source which it derived from, so prerequisite is a real thing because it created something to exist, which is also real. So if matter can produce thought, what source did matter derive from. Hello! Basically to connect to your higher self via your natural state, you are using the Prerequisite a Prerequisite that is real thing. So what is the source for Prerequisite to have derived from. Hello! because at the moment the meditation is all a paradoxically.

While trying to stay present, my mind kept wandering to thoughts such as, if we are all aspects of the one, well, what about real bad people, murderers etc, are they all part of the one? Ripple effects from these aspects of one, is my only answer for this. Now is this my mind or self thinking these thoughts?

I do believe, for arguments sake, Eckart Tolle is enlightened & self realised, or however you want to label it. But I don't believe he is completely balanced in Ying & Yang yet. Like he stated, for example, he does not want to be reborn after this life; because he doesn't want to go through the struggle of childhood again. And you have to ask yourself (if the state Eckart Tolle is in, is the ultimate) why we are not just born that way from the start? So there has to be something more to it, if you believe life is not random. Because for most it is not their destiny, to even start in the Eckart Tolle direction. It seems to me that people like Eckart Tolle and Byron Katie, went through so much misery, before they could dis-identify. Not many people would be willing to sacrifice that much, or be able to. It seems also that they didn't have another option in their life. And you probably can't recreate it. I say this because it seems to me that a lot of people put their lives on hold for 'spirituality'. Some claim to have some breakthrough, but ultimately it's (most of the time) just a concept they place between life and themselves. It's also strange; that other people have to tell you what is going on inside of you, isn't it? It's like we are all so detached from life and ourselves and just afraid of letting go & letting life. On the other hand everything is coming out of the non-ego realm and is already inside of us, conscious or unconscious, and maybe something transcends from Eckart Tolle's teaching; like magic?

@@kamilo4989 Well 'Kamil o', I wouldn't hold on too tight how exactly Eckart Tolle expresses himself; now or in the past. He somehow found himself on the other side and ever since he just tries to point out how to get there. Plus he has to deal with the pressure on his shoulders from Oprah, of course. 😂 I'm not sure what you mean exactly, as some things just seem a bit contradictory to me: Like you don't believe in reincarnation, but you do believe in a soul? Anyway, this thing I pointed out is maybe also some contradiction. For example in the face of life, competitive sports are non existent, as far as I can see. Like the one who finishes on place fifteen, maybe trained as hard (or harder)as the one who finishes first. But the thing is that you don't get anything for granted, by life, if you don't have an important lesson to learn. Talent and all that comes from the non-ego realm. So in the end it's just life who lets you experience place fifteen, first place and everything in between. You can make a story up around it, but the story doesn't matter. The contradiction is, that if they wouldn't have trained they would have missed the experience of life through their effort/ sport. Now sport is a very limited experience; one way, or another. But the same is true for artists and all positions people deem something to strive for.

@@kamilo4989 First of all it doesn't really matter in which context you place the soul; it's just a concept in your head, either way. You keep saying you get 'hung up' by Eckart Tolle's words and you seem to do the same with my words. It's not about the words itself, but where they try to point at. Maybe you can take it in your own space as such, maybe you can't (yet). And that was the point I was trying to make in the first place: That a lot of people place 'spirituality' between life and themselves. So you comments on this are a bit ironic. It's sad that people need other people, like Eckart Tolle, to know what is going on inside of them. Like that people are so detached from themselves & life. Seemingly you are trying to guess what Eckart Tolle means and trying to apply on yourself what you interpreted by your thinking minds. And are in serious disstress if he uses different words, to point to the same thing. It seems to me you could swell be lost in... the lore of 'the Lord of the Rings' fe and have a discussion about that. Ultimately life is the best teacher. Like I tried to say before: You can behold a famous sporter, artist or who ever you admire. In the face of life he, or she, just gets what he/ she needs to consciousness. Some need an important lesson before they can let go; some need the recognition, become very wealthy and all that. There is nothing more to it; that's why some have called it 'the divine comedy'. And the same applies to you. Good luck letting go!

A question came to me as I listened to this: If the timeless is trying to manifest in a dimension of time, would that not create a huge physical ( as in physics, or another scientific discipline which could better describe it) disturbance? Like an implosion or explosion due to incompatibility? It seems almost as if consciousness trying to squeeze its way into our dimension IS the cause of our suffering? Earth as the garden of Eden; content until consciousness started leaking in.

Hey Eckhart. I Was really wondering how it can be that you choose to eat meat when it is causing so much sufferering for the poor animals?

@markfuller

Жыл бұрын

The Dali Lama eats meat when offered. Many other enlightened teachers. Adyashanti had a really good answer to the question _"could killing animals to eat them come from wholeness?"_ "Sure. Life is killing. If we eat a vegetable, we’ve killed it. If we eat an animal, we’ve killed it. To be a living organism is to kill. There is no life without death. When we die, we’re going to be nutrients for something else. "I don’t see life as 'anything goes,' but I have seen wholeness move through different people in different ways. That’s why I’m always talking about action that comes from wholeness, _not from division, nor rejection, nor grasping, nor pushing away._ What motivates us when we’re not pushing or grasping, not relying on *conditioned concepts of right and wrong, good and bad?* Is there something else that can move us? And what is that? Action that is an expression of a clear and undivided state of consciousness is what the Buddha meant by 'right action.' To exercise right action we must be functioning from a place outside of all egoic self-interest. We must be awake within the dream and be able to express that perspective." Religion vs spirit of religion? I always detect that difference in these questions.

How about a meditation to manifest a wonderful abundant life for all instead ofthe draconian one that mist governments want to create
