    I live on a hill on the outskirts of a small town. Through the kitchen window, I watch the beautiful sunset and the constantly changing clouds. And I always feel joy and peace inside me, and it's simple and free.

    I think the challenge is to feel joy and peace in the nois of the town, everywhere stones, house, a big appartement behind my little garden that keeps my sight on clouds and a sunset away. To feel inside the peace dispite the surroundings where you live is important. Greetings from the very crowded Netherlands.

    “Throughout the ages, in darkness and in light, to move forward, they all had to work toward an ideal vision, with the conviction that perfection is within reach, possible. The man who must deliver has learned not to become a victim of that ideal vision. He understands one can never touch the North Star, one can only let it be the guide, in darkness and in light.” (From Stoic Mosquito by A. A. Socrates)

Recently I had a dream about Eckhart Tolle, and the next day my brother in law died. It was a shock to get that news. The love and compassion in Eckhart and that of the wisdom he points to, came through in a real way for me. It’s amazing how I’m here now and so is someone like Eckhart. Grateful for many others also! ❤

    I don't believe anyone lives in the present moment 24/7 if they did they wouldn't be able to function on a daily basis. I personally think accepting the mind will have its say and the mind will produce thoughts and feelings about past and future whether we like it or not is a healthy, attainable and maintainable mind set. Freedom from ever receiving the minds thoughts opinions, beliefs, fears and worries is impossible but freedom from taking them seriously and reacting to them is very achievable. There is nothing wrong with us and there is absolutely nothing wrong with our minds, it's only our relationship with our minds that gets confused sometimes. Presence and being in the present moment is like passing clouds, it comes and it goes 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Es como observar el espacio entre dos pensamientos: compruebo como el cuerpo dolor no es tan denso como parece, tiene brechas, y pierde fuerza con esta observación. Es maravilloso!!

    Observing something is to be aware of its existence, observing without thoughts about and judgement of what we are observing is presence and awareness. Our minds almost certainly will have an opinion about everything but we are not our minds so our minds opinions are not our opinions, unless we choose to allow to become so 🙏🙏🙏🙏

    Explaining how to "become present/ conscious/aware" or what the state of those conditions feel like, by using examples of how to do so in a real life scenario - notice the sky or other aspects of nature around you - is really helpful. We need more examples because I wonder if reaching those states to achieve peace, has been discouraged by society in recent times, or confined it to something we should only be doing on holiday. Words like "presence" have other meanings too, depending on context & really, you are the only teacher who has used these words in the spiritual context eg "Consciousness to a doctor means one thing & I thus attribute the same meaning to it as a doctor would. I certainly never learnt about consciousness or awareness from the nuns or priests I was forced to endure at junior school until my family realised how bad they were at what they did. But your meanings for these words seem to be somewhat different. So it's really difficult for me, knowing all the different ways these words are used, to understand what you, Eckhart, mean by these words that keep arising in your posts & videos - "aware", "awareness", "conscious", "consciousness", "present", "Presence". I'm sure it would be difficult for a lot of people to understand, because so many now fill (distract really) spare moments with tech devices, ratger tgan simply sitting quietly admiring a view from tgeir office window, if they're lucky enough to have one. Also that this act of simply "being" & appreciating beauty, is the first step to "forgetting all your troubles" - inner peace - because it makes space for solutions to come through, is quite hard to accept. W3 often need solutions instantaneously, so we "do something", anything until we can't anymore. The consequence is often enforced stillness, which is often when the penny drops for many.
