How lucky are we to get these incredible teachings for free... via a magic box on the palm of our hands. If Buddha had a RUclips channel, this is what it would look like. So, don't take this stuff for granted, my friends.
@@Closminding You're dumb to be comparing external appearances, when that's the least important thing when it comes to describing a buddha.

There are thousands of anonymous Buddha's alive at any given point in time and has always been the case.
Eckhart‘s teachings have made me become awake. I am able to observe from a place of presence and I just feel so much gratitude❤️ sending love to you whoever is reading this on this beautiful day❤️
Yes indeed I learn an laugh & his school of thought truly resonates w my heart & often while meditating my soul feels the inner peace that the ppl en dark en my light has been stolen 😑 I envisioned happiness in meditation today I'm working w my awareness n knowledge
@@ladybelladarkstarr7020 No one can steal your light; You ARE Light. But you can allow others who fear their own Light to suppress or dim yours. Don't make that choice.
So beautiful how he describes the “aliveness of the forest”. Just recently I went for a walk in the woods and just looked. I just stood and looked and allowed myself to feel and take in the forest as it presented itself. I started crying. It felt so merciful. I felt like I was allowed to just be whatever I am by allowing “it”, the forest, the world, whatever, to just be whatever “it” is.
I'm in school for horticulture and learned to identify all of the trees of my area. It's amazing how different the conceptual and nonconceptual version of the forest is. It's truly beautiful to experience the forests true self as it is to experience your true self.
There is such an intimacy with simply, consciously looking, with consciously hearing, touching, smelling, tasting, moving, feeling, and occasionally consciously thinking, with consciously being. It is the point from which we fall in love with the depths of all the world, of all people, with God.
The only thing that is appearing to stop you from enlightenment/self-realization/eternal life/knowing yourself to be unconditional love is identification with thoughts, emotions, sensations, perceptions and experiences instead of being aware of being aware and knowing yourself to be that unconditional love pure consciousness in which all thoughts, emotions, sensations, perceptions and experiences appear but are not inherently one with you; they are an expression of unconditional love; you are that infinite that is expressing itself as suffering/pleasure but inherently you are neither; you are that nothing/unconditional love/pure consciousness in which they are appear and by which they are perceived; Suffering/pleasure comes and goes; there is an awareness that is aware of them coming and going; that you are; remember and know what you are; never identify with anything that is appearing within you; since it appears within you; it can't be you; you are that in which it appears. When you abide as that in which it appears instead of identifying; nothing has a grip on you; if anything comes; it quickly goes; like clouds passing; only if you identify as a cloud then it will appear as if the cloud is here for longer than it is originally supposed to; if you simply rest as the awareness and do not identify; it will quickly dissolve; be unconditional love by being aware of being aware; this is the highest; this is what you are seeking in absolutely everything else; you are seeking yourself; you are seeking unconditional love; but you are looking outside of yourself; instead of being aware that you already are unconditional love. Love love
yes, feeling, as Tolle says, the inner vastness, almost infinite spaciousness within, if the mind can't be satisfied with feeling this, then what will ever satisfy it? like some people who win awards, or have money, power, prestige & titles, if they don't venture within, & feel the breath of life, all the show of success would, i imagine, be like so many empty candy wrappers strewn about...
Social media platforms such as RUclips can either be a blessing or a curse, depending upon the meaning one attaches to the content. In this particular case it feels like a blessing because anything Eckhart says is very soothing and puts me into a mindset although my views may be unusual here in the small New England town I live in, across the planet there are quite a few of us in the community and I don't feel as isolated.
this has nothing to do with the video BUT PLEASE READ!! about a month and a half ago i started bad anxiety, it was so bad i could barely eat and i couldn’t even walk without thinking i was gonna faint, i have fixed that problem, my anxiety has reduced and i’m not always anxious. yet something that scares me is how for a while i had trouble finding happiness, i didn’t feel joy. maybe bcuz i was too focused on the negative it was crushing me and i couldn’t see the positive. i had a lot of things stressing me. i had physical symptoms of anxiety, trouble breathing, light headed and sometimes felt disconnected like i died and i was in a dream or a play. i feel way better now, i do :) but still wonder what happened and i hope it doesn’t happen again bcuz it had killed a part of me. i know it might’ve thought me something or might teach me something, but not sure yet. was that the dark night of the soul? was that an awakening? will i go through it again? sometimes i felt like time is so slow and i’d be bored. i think it might be because so focused on the negative and thinking when am i gonna be okay again so it feels slow. u know how when it’s christmas and everyone is eating and ur waiting to open the gifts and even if ur doing something u can’t wait for everyone to finish eating so u open up ur gifts? it’s like i’m waiting for my mind to stop eating so i can finally open up my gifts. (keep in mind all this in within a month and a half) i wonder what it is, the reason of me going through this. i’m getting better but please help. also i was a person that wasn’t afraid of death, now i am a little because i’m not sure what happens after we die, maybe bcuz i’m scared to feel the way i’m feeling right now. so if you know please bring me clarity and explain to me id really appreciate. also i’m 14 so i’m still young and new to this sort of.
KayinPepper Just relax. Like you said you are 14. Be grateful for your insights at such an early age. At your rate you will be very wise when you are older. Your thinking is creating a lot of questions and suffering. Remember that you cannot comprehend the meaning of life with your mind. Only your awareness can feel it. Also be aware of your tendency to require help and define yourself as somebody who needs help. That is likely the ego trying to create a false identify that creates suffering for itself. Feel you are an eternal being and be open to not knowing. Not knowing who you are is incredibly peaceful. I began thus journey at 14 as well-I am 17 now. I recommend writing down your current state of consciousness whenever you feel like it inside of your notes app or on paper. You can keep track of your progression and potentially natural regressions in consciousness which will immediately help you return to the original state of bliss. Have fun!
V1Gibby thank you:) i will it’s just hard right now i know i can do it but it’s not that easy as it seems and then i feel lost and then when i think what happens after death and what if i am like this like in the state that i am right now what if i’m like this when i die. i’m not afraid of dying, just afraid of what happens next is it good? bad? idk and it’s like feeling lost
Mastering your mind, your emotions, and your habits can change the trajectory of your life fast. No matter what you are facing, you have a creative mind and unlimited potential 💪
The only thing that wants to master the mind is the mind. Just leave the mind & emotions be. They will not submit to your will anyway. True freedom lies in allowing yourself to be just the way you are, because you can't change yourself just as you can't lift yourself up by your own bootstraps. You are already a perfect and beautiful being!
@Mindset & Self-Mastery It’s difficult in a short comment simply read, to infer your perception of what Eckhart is saying. But I keyed in on “mastering”, and since that word is also in your channel name, I’m curious what you think about it. Please stay tuned, keep learning from Eckhart, and other non-dual teachers. Use discernment regarding the teacher. I tried to “master” the mind but it is like hugging one’s own reflection. Instead of adding, subtract. There is so much that we gather and absorb every day, week, year of our lives, and 90% of it is not needed, and confuses us. Subtract.
Whenever i have anxiety i put on Eckhart and he helps put things back into perspective. His voice is so calming. I notice the anxiety comes from living in the possible future situation that doesn't exist vs. The now. I have to come back from that habitual thinking that my pain body takes me to. Thank you Eckhart..
I made listening to his teachings part of my morning routine, listening to one video and then meditation. Recommending that to anyone for a peaceful start of a day.
Listening to this remind me of two recent job interviews. It is interesting that my interviewers seem more interested in how much I “bought in” to keeping the illusion they had constructed ( mental health industry), rather than welcoming creativity and seeking advancement through deeper understanding.
Eckhart is brilliant and so wise. There is so much fear associated with not knowing for me, but letting go of that provides freedom and inner peace. 🙏🦋
Same here. I'm living such a confusing life... Not knowing what to do... Or how to live life... It's so comforting to know... that It's ok to not to know....🌸🌿
same over here y'all, sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and it's gotten kinda weird, almost scary lately...It's as if I don't know who I am and just being completely by myself brings me a lot of uncertainty...which is obviously uncomfortable. Seeing this video, however, helps a lot
I’m so drawn to just be, to just feel the aliveness of my body and everything I hear and see. The space and peace and just aliveness. The connection, I feel the surrounding rather than name it. I feel the surroundings inside of me. I cannot put it in words but I now can and allow it happen every time I go outside or even sit inside or what ever. I love it. How wonderful life is, all life, and how normal and regular it is to just be. I still am wondering sometimes that wow I am doing this, I mean my ego is amazed 😄.
You have to stop the habit of being sensitive to the feeling of 'anxiety' itself. Before, when even the smallest levels of anxiety emerged, you may have instantly started to worry and overthink. That was your defense mechanism against anxiety. However, that is the wrong way to react. Even when anxiety emerges, people who are not so sensitive are not really affected. They don’t fear more than they need to. Naturally, they don’t ‘defend’ themselves by overthinking. In other words, they are not susceptible to the vicious loop of overthinking. So when you feel insecure, you can become stronger if you can release the compulsion of getting rid of your anxiety. Re-define what it means to be mentally strong. You are strong not ‘because’ of something, but you are strong ‘despite’ of something.
By desiring little, we make ourselves rich from the peace we have inside ourselves and from making the best use of what we make. Whatever possession we gain by words cannot be sure of lasting, but the love gained by kindness and our good actions is certain to last forever.
Being comfortable with the unknown is so hard, but it is SO NEEDED in order to LET GO. Of who you thought you were. Or a person who walked away. Or an idea that someone took. Or that job that you didn’t get. Let’s live more in that MOONLIGHT, baby!!! 🌙 🌚 🌙
i really am not on the level of applying any of what he is saying currently but it just feels so good to be reminded of the ultimate 😊 and that truly sometimes can be enough 😊 thank you Eckhart for existing in this world 😊 i love you ❤️
Those whom I live with are so sure of who they are, and so comfortable judging others that I find it disturbing. Meanwhile, and thankfully, I am becoming comfortable not knowing. Eckhart has taught me so much. I am forever grateful
Soooo great to hear him , echo other people saying how hard it is to be ok with not knowing. Our past conditioning sets our pathways to live through the mind and concepts and labels. This work is to clear all that and get back to who we truly are , pure clean and free . Back to infantile state almost. ( when we know we don't know , that's when we really know but that know is not from the mind state. It's from a felt pure being state, words and mind can't comprehend it . Bless eckhart
The one you know is your Ego created by the custom, culture, taboos, traditions, environment you've been growing up in. The "real you", you don't know, don't even want to know.🕊️🌺
Beautiful video....Reminds me of the poem; "God is a pure no-thing concealed in now and here. The less that you look for her, The more she will appear." Angelus Silesius (1624-1677)
Tolle has said God is pure Formlessness, pure Be-ing. Being precedes & trumps perceiving & doing. We, too, emerged from formlessness, from the void. And to it we shall return, awaken. We ARE that awareness of the silence (that one can perceive when one quiets one's mind, as in meditation). But how can Awareness as a presence become self-aware without separating from itself? If no-thingness (nothingness) can be perceived, then it follows that there is some-thing (else) engaged in perceiving it, thus negating the premise of no-thingness itself. Unless that which is not & consists of nothing has an in-built capacity to perceive itself. Perhaps that is what our purpose on this earth is: we are sentient creatures endowed with a will. So we are equipped to enable unmanifested Awareness to manifest, that it may experience & perceive Itself. Why, as I have often heard, does the universe abhor a void? It must fill it. But is it not one with the void it is driven to overcome? Tolle has said that you ARE the manifestation of the universe, of the consciousness underlying it AND at the same time you ARE the universe experiencing itself (via your evolving relationship with your own Truth). This coincides with the idea that this life is a dream & we are but the imagination of ourselves.
Absolutely wonderful teaching and gift of PRESENCE. Wise Being and I am grateful that LIFE intelligence has gifted LIFE this being in the form to help its own aspects that is us.
Cant even imagine him passing over someday, it'll be absolutely heartbreaking...even though he says, "just accept ". We need you Mr T. Another 50 years pleeeease.....
I would like to hear Eckhart on the topic of secondary school teachers and presence. Although I know that he did not appreciate the School very much :), it is a challenge for us teachers. And in the midst of so many different personalities it is difficult to stay present. I wish he could talk about School and the teaching class one day. Anyway, I thank him for everything I could learn from his teachings.
I never felt like I knew who I was (who I am) and this confused me so much. As a teen I really struggled with not find an "identity". I wish I knew then this could be a good thing..
How lucky are we to get these incredible teachings for free... via a magic box on the palm of our hands.
If Buddha had a RUclips channel, this is what it would look like.
So, don't take this stuff for granted, my friends.
I was just saying that to myself every time I come to one of his videos I be like time for free therapy class lol
No it wouldn't look like this. Budha was oriental and didn't wear pull overs.

@@Godly_Sharing you expressed the Truth beautifully, Sebastian.Thank you.
Can we all agree that Eckhart is the most loveable man in the public arena?! And the most soothing imho... 🤗
Dropping the need to know conceptually is a huge step to freedom from the ego and increased stillness.
Knowing comes from the mind which can never truly understand. The thing we desire to know can only be felt by us. Stay blessed everyone!

You have to stop the habit of being sensitive to the feeling of 'anxiety' itself. Before, when even the smallest levels of anxiety emerged, you may have instantly started to worry and overthink. That was your defense mechanism against anxiety.

So when you feel insecure, you can become stronger if you can release the compulsion of getting rid of your anxiety. Re-define what it means to be mentally strong.
You are strong not ‘because’ of something, but you are strong ‘despite’ of something.

The one you know is your Ego created by the custom, culture, taboos, traditions, environment you've been growing up in. The "real you", you don't know, don't even want to know.🕊️🌺
He is the cutest and most peaceful 😇
Thank you Eckhart
Brilliant, simply brilliant 👍😌
Beautiful video....Reminds me of the poem;
"God is a pure no-thing concealed in now and here.
The less that you look for her,
The more she will appear." Angelus Silesius (1624-1677)
Leon A Thank you for sharing. It’s beautiful.
ks1961ks Very happy you liked it. One of my favorites.
That’s beautiful my friend, thanks for sharing with all of us
Garrett Nadeau Happy you liked it!
Tolle has said God is pure Formlessness, pure Be-ing. Being precedes & trumps perceiving & doing. We, too, emerged from formlessness, from the void. And to it we shall return, awaken. We ARE that awareness of the silence (that one can perceive when one quiets one's mind, as in meditation).
But how can Awareness as a presence become self-aware without separating from itself? If no-thingness (nothingness) can be perceived, then it follows that there is some-thing (else) engaged in perceiving it, thus negating the premise of no-thingness itself. Unless that which is not & consists of nothing has an in-built capacity to perceive itself. Perhaps that is what our purpose on this earth is: we are sentient creatures endowed with a will. So we are equipped to enable unmanifested Awareness to manifest, that it may experience & perceive Itself.
Why, as I have often heard, does the universe abhor a void? It must fill it. But is it not one with the void it is driven to overcome?
Tolle has said that you ARE the manifestation of the universe, of the consciousness underlying it AND at the same time you ARE the universe experiencing itself (via your evolving relationship with your own Truth).
This coincides with the idea that this life is a dream & we are but the imagination of ourselves.
Absolutely wonderful teaching and gift of PRESENCE. Wise Being and I am grateful that LIFE intelligence has gifted LIFE this being in the form to help its own aspects that is us.
私はあなたが大好きです。いつも気づきをありがとうございます。Thank you！
Cant even imagine him passing over someday, it'll be absolutely heartbreaking...even though he says, "just accept ".
We need you Mr T. Another 50 years pleeeease.....
The beauty of presence
Thank you Eckhart Tolle 🙏 I love you 💖
i feel so much love and peace when watching and hearing him talk
This explains a bit as to why I struggle to have opinions on anything at all. This seems to frustrate people around me.
I struggle with this too
You pick up any tips for dealing with this since your comment a year ago?
Such essential wisdom...
Ivelearned much from Tolle’dtalks and books
Freedom from known and unknown is real knowing. And the real knowing only shines in the Now.
Absolutely true!
@@alisonstringer9663 thank you 🌹
Thank you Eckhart🌠
Thank you .for the teaching .have no ego.
We love you, Eckhart!
A great video. I learned that we have to be comfortable with not knowing.
How many people actually feel their inner being? Thanks Echart! I am completely free now.
I would like to hear Eckhart on the topic of secondary school teachers and presence. Although I know that he did not appreciate the School very much :), it is a challenge for us teachers. And in the midst of so many different personalities it is difficult to stay present. I wish he could talk about School and the teaching class one day. Anyway, I thank him for everything I could learn from his teachings.
I never felt like I knew who I was (who I am) and this confused me so much. As a teen I really struggled with not find an "identity". I wish I knew then this could be a good thing..
