I'm autistic, and I totally understand what Eckhart means. I've spent my whole life wondering what people are putting themselves through for no reason. Trying to fit in is a waste of time. 😍

I'm a recovering highly neurotic person and I've spent my whole life too, wondering why I put myself through misery for no reason.

PS For those wondering: Highly neurotic people, like myself, see the world as if it is a thin line amidst it all which represents "the right thing to do". This line is of course an illusion, but we perceive it as real. People in my closest circle are on the so called "autistic spectrum" and to me that has been quite an eye opener. With help from them, simply being themselves, and spiritual teachings, I am gradually recovering from this neurotic state.

In occult teachings, we move through 7 densities of Earth as we consciously evolve..but not everyone is at the same point of development as they are learning different lessons.

What fascinates me in the universe's synchronistic ways is how as you awaken yourself- others around you start to awaken too. I've noticed now lots of my coworkers have been waking up ever since I've been deep into awakening work. That is not to say I caused them to wake up (lol, that would be my ego talking!),but I have subconsciously been attracted to others who are awakening "If you want to awaken all of humanity, awaken all of your self. The greatest gift you can give the world is your personal transformation"-lao tzu

"Unease, anxiety, tension, stress, worry - all forms of fear - are caused by too much future, and not enough presence. Guilt, regret, resentment, grievances, sadness, bitterness, and all forms of nonforgiveness are caused by too much past, and not enough presence. Most people find it difficult to believe that a state of consciousness totally free of all negativity is possible. And yet this is the liberated state to which all spiritual teachings point. It is the promise of salvation, not in an illusory future but right here and now. Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now:

"The essence, your essential being, is the aliveness of presence, consciousness, and you can ONLY get that in the GAP between two thoughts." I think this is also the GAP between breathe in and breathe out during meditation. This GAP is the path to enlightenment. Thanks Eckhart!!!

It's not accessible only within gaps between thoughts. It is the silence that is underneath/before all thoughts. The mind is actually silent. Absolute and total silence is the background for all sound. We can only hear anything because of it's presence.

Wonderful "be conscious of being conscious".......It took dangerous hobbies for my mind to be "quiet'......despite the danger I always felt so refreshed from having periods of "non thinking". I laughed when you talked about Zen.....I went on a retreat for two weeks in a Zen monastery and after our long hours of silent group meditations kneeling and staring at a spot on the wall in front of us....the zen master would ask us questions.

Yeah, sadly those who are angry, fearful and despondent need it the most. It's of course easy to be one with the ones you love already or to "nice people" in general. My daughter used to become angry a lot and I bought her a children's book about the "anger-monster" that showed anger as something outside of her. It was a true revelation for her. It's easier when you realize that the anger-monster took possession of them - that it's not them.

I relate to each word Ekhart says. Don't want my thoughts overpower my consciousness but as he mentioned that we have situations and relations in life. A conscious person is vulnerable one and the kindness and empathy towards other humans leaves him more and more vulnerable. Especially if that relationship has a narcissist as a partner. What should a spiritually conscious person do? Ekhart pls guide. 🙏 Also if fellow followers can help me by answering this.
