I just love he takes 30 seconds to answer.. he is so happy with himself.. with people.. us.. the world.. his job.. he is adorable... just like mozart.. has the sweetness of chopin.. the love of a mother and a father.. so human.. with the smallest ego in the world.. he is an artist.. has the art of love, the art of peaceful life.

I just realised why I like this man so much is not just what he says but the manner in which he shares his thoughts and insights. He is so gentle, and the moments he spends gathering his words…well, you can witness the transcribing of truths given him by a higher energy. I trust his words…they are not preachy, demanding, scolding, or impatient…it is as if we are witnessing a Christ like figure on earth. When you see a soul this enlightened you naturally wish to follow and learn. Thank you many times over Eckhart…

@Peter Fischer Thank you for answering. Very interesting. But couldn't that answer come from the self rather than from the ego? Wouldn't the self be aware of the thougt and be in control over how to answer that question? Sorry, maybe I'm just not intelligent enough to comprehend this. Do you know perhaps some books I could read to get more into this topic? Besides the power of now of course.
He is TALKING for many years all over the world about NOT TALKING (stopping inner dialogue) - what a business model!
I swear!!! That long pause at the beginning....in the middle.....that coy smile. Tell me it doesn't look like he is waiting as the universe is downloading the answer, as he smiles at the delight of being able to deliver it!
I literally cried watching this video. Maybe I can't yet understand what Eckhart said with my mind, but something within me is touched.

I have reached that state, but it took many years of staying conscious. (57 y) You have to live slower and make choices. I am surrounded with nature and I can look at a bee on my plants/flowers and be one with that. My mission is my practice, helping people back on their life path.

The person become transparent, the light of consciousness comes through. The density of mental-emotional structure becomes transparent. The mind movement is interspersed with spaces, for the light of consciousness to get through. Is consciousness asleep? The consciousness is dreaming of form when it is identified with mental-emotional structure. The earth is full of forms. The universe loves forms. But it also loves the return to the Source to know itself, the outer movement and return movement. It's not either one or the other. We can embody within both movements. So we create, but not blindly and egoicaly. The awakened consciousness can create forms, not out of need, but out of joy like an artist. Conscious creation is beautiful. Thanks Eckhart.🎅👍💖🐘🍻🍨🏆🎯
I love it. The way the light of consciousness can shine through and make you lighter when you give up identification. Eckhart you are a true blessing to the world.

To paraphrase Tony Parsons, “if enlightenment ever happens, you won’t be around to experience it.”
Is consciousness asleep? Yes, when it is dreaming of forms. The forms create more forms. The universe loves forms (outer movement). The universe also loves to return to itself (return movement). We embody both movements within. Thanks Eckhart. 🎅👍💖🐘🍻🍨🏆🎯
I've experienced couple of days ago this separation and then the Space came. This endless space with no thoughts at all, just be present now, fulfillment. It was like washing me out from inside and removing all forms I know and get used to them. This is all just labels of the word "wow". It started after Tibetan singing bowls therapy. At the beginning there was fear, then irritation, I even blamed the singing bowls. I felt like my identity was dying and fear was: "Who am I, now? I'm no one, nothing, I possess nothing, nothing left..", then thoughts disappeared. Then "I" disappeared and the Space came. I've started to see Ego illusions/forms also in others but at the same time I see that Space in each and every person. We're all the same Space. It was not the first time I had this experience, but it was the first time I realized it and it seems as complete disintegration. Now, I can notice when individuality tries to generate the same forms (Ego's) and it is easy to separate the Space(me) from it. The Space wants to create beautiful forms of live, so, I'm trying to practice this outer movement and return movement and also just be. Joyful process. I'm awakened form of the Source now. Thank you, Eckhart, God's blessing, for enlightened explanation!❤❤❤

How nice eckart talks about transparency.. lightening the ego.. both meanings.. shinning light.. and making ego smaller... .... But where .. how this wisdom came to him? Eckart is so different than the rest.. so.. childish.. innocent.. pure.. lovable.. transparent.. so light... i think desperste infinite suffering and loneliness did it... so sad they all failed him... familly.. father.. country.. society.. religion.. churches... it seems just his self saved him in the last moments... he and himself saved him... playing with them.. making one small.. playing with his breathing.. his mind.. simple child games of breathing.. meditating.. taking the best and simple stuff that everybody understands of crhistianity and buddism.. genius.. he is happy making people happy.. he is a proof of angelic life.. of goodness, of god.

I thank you so much and enjoy your talks, they give me peace of mind. During the bush fires here on the south east of Australia for six weeks there was little but terror and anxiety in my mind and body. Six weeks later when the fear was gone, thoughts began to once again trickle back in, negative thoughts about the people who have caused me problems over the years. I stood still and said out loud 'now you feel you have room for this again!' I realised then it had all stopped during the weeks previous because my mind was living in the moment, so it was possible to clear the mind. Eckhardt, you have helped show me the way, thankyou. Frances 🐴
Here and now🙏🏽
He just described the truth of individual and universe. Even if you don't understand it today, please listen, just listen do not try to understand. Time will come soon when you will know it yourself.
You can tell he embodies something, not the usual ego, but something vast yet present.

Gradually discovering thyself by carefully realizing what thyself is not through awareness. New awareness arrives over & over again disintegrating false perceptions by revealing distortions & illusions of ext/internal space. Awareness = Freedom

Eckhart words are so uplifting! We are Energy/Consciousness breathing in and out of formlessness into form and back into formlessness. Awakening is being aware of this unfoldment. Love Eckhart!
Beautifully presented and illustrated! Lots of light and blessings! It is not too much information 🙂
The return to the source is the “urge to merge” with the Universe, to become one with him/her/it. And it’s completely possible to do, at least to an extent. That’s what we all want, even when we look for it in all the wrong places…

Beautiful description about the concept of enlightenment. The way he talks about the nature of self growing more transparent as the light of Source shines through more and more brightly. Resonates like a temple bell.
Yes, there is no context, you have the experience and knowledge that you are immortal.
One feels transported beyond this existence when Eckhart shares - At any given moment, by applying an intention to love, bestow and positively connect, we undergo billions of changes through completely accepting the providence of the single force of love and bestowal.

what i noticed is the higher/evolved? (if one wants to label this functioning as such but i like to call it as just a FUNCTION, a different way of Being, and) this way of living is more flowy. its less friction and less forceful thus its not anxiously driven life. joy and potency of the senses (because one is able to savor life more when the mind is peaceful and spacious) come so easily.. the brain gets delighted with simple touch and youd be more intuned with inner workings of the body and mind. the radar to which guides the senses to what REALLY matters jn life is more fine tuned and all mental illnesses disappear. you just able to grasp and understand without much thought processes and those stale programmings no longer cloud ones awareness. intense emotions are not there. whats remain is clarity and transparency and simple route to taste 'enligtenment' is to truly live for yourself and not others.. preferable if youre single because being a parent or having a partner (husband or wife) your nervous system has already been hijacked by them lol.... there is no lasting peace when youre dealing with people most of the time haha

Many thanks, you are right, Master. When I think" Talk in this way is not like one lady." or "This is right, that is wrong." I know I am still in dream. Enlightenment means no judgment.
