A real awakening occurs when one's ego eventually gets burnt out from all of life's difficulties and suffering, and it's then that one surrenders and accepts all that is, and thereafter, one realizes that their ultimate purpose in life is to bring forth the light of consciousness into the world. Thank you so much for bringing your light into the world and showing us the way too Eckhart.🙏
Thanks for sharing hun xo! 💜
You're so welcome hun! For you're the light of my life! xo💜xo
@@stephenflood3463 Thanks for your kind words and bringing light into my life as well! See ya tonight xo! 💜
Absolutely greatly explained ❤
bla bla bla bla bla bla.........
Eckhart deserves a Nobel prize for inner peace. ❤
Agrees!
Giving prize to works of inner peace in the name of a person who spoiled outer peace!
What a contradiction!
The Inner-Peace Prize 😁
Very well said!
There is no price for it you can't pay for this...peace is beyond materialism...what he teach us we only feel grateful for his blessings on us❤ respect and grateful to you my beloved Master Eckhart❤😌🙏
“To a large extent this world is insane” best quote ever, delivered so directly 😂 Thank you Eckhart.
It seems that human nature needs catastrophic suffering as a leading way to be awakened... or may be not.
We all know it's true.
I know it’s beyond true too!
Clearly most people act like animals, automatically on impulse
The problem is when you don't include yourself in this.
He is so wise I love him Hope he knows how many he has helped and continues to help. Sending much love
A modern prophet
He is just lovely. I’m so grateful for him ♥️⭐️
"No one awakens in the comfort zone" ! how very very wise. Thank you dear Eckhart Tolle for this eye opening teaching.
I was in the comfort zone for years thinking I finally found peace, but it was actually just a very comfortable grave that consumed years of my life.
What a wonderful take on the scariness of the world! The crises situations are incredibly anxiety producing. It’s like everyone is afraid! No matter your religion, ethnicity, country, whatever…. ! In the U.S. it feels like our whole world can be destroyed either politically by losing our democracy or by the climate crisis. Israel has gone crazy & people are talking like it is “normal “ to be so incredibly cruel & destructive. Russia is nuts. We are struggling to stop the extinction of species. The climate is SCARY! We need immediate action. Hello out there! This is an emergency. And yet I know, it takes suffering for people to change. That’s what motivates us to work. It does me.
Dearest Eckahart, After 24 years of learning, to be here now listening to you on a tape player over and over and on my iPod over and over I now have your teachings living inside my mind and body and I am so blessed because of it! You have gotten me through 14 years of illness with this work, when I wanted to end it all your words were there! I can't thank you enough! I remember first reading and then listening to The Power of Now and getting a lot from it but as you said and knew I wasn't ready for all of it but it was in there and then in 2012 wow it all came out for me when illness happened. Now today listening to this remembering to use every moment as an opportunity for transformation is so empowering. Nothing is a waste! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I love you! If I won the lottery the one thing I would love to do is see you in person! Sitting in presence is my favorite and I cry tears of joy every time I do it with you! I hope to meet you in heaven! Love xoxo Ava
This is absolutely BEAUTIFUL❣️ I feel your love, gratitude and reverence for our Teacher!!! We are so blessed!!! Sending love & light, dear friend!!! You are so very loved!!! 🙏😇💫
Ava, now or later, dead is the final destination!! Live life! What may come, come!

This man's voice and way of speaking soothes me. I play him on the car, while running, when grocery shopping... Thank you, Eckhart ❤ The Power of Now changed my life.
This is true. This is what people find here, soothing. A different way of interacting in an insane world :)❤
True! and what a great community of inner peace seekers. I am sure we are raising the world level of consciousness @@Ludifant 🙏
hey @@Ludifant , I just checked your channel. It is unique AND I LOVE IT ❤. Is it generative art!? I am into that. I am subscribed now, will check more closely :). Have a lovely day.
Me too.🙏
Right there with you. His teachings have awakened me. It’s been gradual, but I’m loving the journey. The joy I experience for no apparent reason happens spontaneously. I am beyond grateful ❤
My wife and I have encountered a very costly medical and fertility issue this year and as we took on these bills, she lost her job. This has a been a very challenging time. I can't say how much Eckhart has helped me. Thank you
What an amazing opportunity to see what money means. What health means to you, it was an interesting year here as well.. May you live in interesting times and have the strength to surrender. I wish you both the best.
@@Ludifantwhat does money mean?
"Wants" the cause of suffering.
It should be evident by now that the Universe does not want you to breed. Do the rest of population a favor. Save yourself some money. Stop forcing yourself on the planet. Try gardening or something else.
Eckhart is a gift to this world. Thank you Eckhart
You are also a gift to this world :)
perhaps the universe gave Eckhart the world as a gift.
I can fully testify that suffering brought me to awakening. There are moments the ego is back, but never for that long to forget the awakening and consciousness. Once you have experienced awakening, you will not lose it,
I hope to feel how it is to be awake
@@gabyburket3926 I guess, by being here, you are finding that out.
“Things need to be difficult otherwise change doesn’t happen”
This makes perfect sense. We become more aware and resilient with challenges.
In this video I've heard the answer I've been looking for lately, may Eckhart be blessed with long life and health.
This man and Alan Watts have opened my eyes to the true nature of reality. Listening to their talks have gotten me through many difficult times in my life.
Ditto- should be on the curriculum.
Make sure the pointing finger isn't the primary focus but the moon it's pointing to.
Same, and Ram Dass with his honesty and openness of experiencing it all.
Same here Steve
16:51 Eckhart is downloading new information's from the divine power. I love this moment.
Eckhart is a modern day saint
Suffering has already fulfilled my purpose,I couldn't be any content than this moment.
" If you don´t escape, if you allow the suffering to be there, if you are ready to face it, if you are not trying somehow to forget it, then you are different. Suffering is there but just around you; it is not in the center, it is on the periphery. It is impossible for suffering to be in the center; it is not in the nature of things. It is always on the periphery and you are the center.
So when you allow it to happen, you don´t escape, you don´t run, you are not in a panic, suddenly you become aware that suffering is there on the periphery as if happening to someone else, not to you, and you are looking at it. A subtle joy spreads all over your being because you have realized one of the basic truths of life, that you are bliss and not suffering."
🛐
Osho words
@@movieloverUS yes
Hello willie i'm still suffering
Can you please elaborate what it means that it is on the periphery and not in the center when actually suffering is staring at your face day in and out
Beautiful teaching, Eckhart. Very well stated and paced. A good day to you and all everywhere.
Many years of development, and finally, all is revealed.. 😊
Thanks for sharing dear eckhart! Thank you for also reminding me that the primary purpose in my life is to transcend the ego and be unconditional love.💜
Well said Nicole, and you're doing a pretty good job with that! 💜✨💙
@@stephenflood3463 Thanks I'm not perfect but trying the best I can. I'm proud of you too! 💜
@@midnightblue2893 True, nobody's perfect and it would be pretty boring if we all were. I guess we learn from our imperfections and yet they are what makes us human. Thanks love, I'm proud of you!💜
Unconditional love does mean that you love the desire to lose the ego, what is there without ego.. And the ego. Anything eliminated from that whole means conditions..🫛
I used to be a very vain person, but now I'm absolutely perfect 🙏🙏🙏

lots of LOVE Eckhart! 💚
So impactful and empowering 💕 I absolutely adore this man 💯
This is saying exactly what I was thinking at the time it posted, as I acknowledged and accepted my grief over my past. What do you know? A synchronicity. Thank you Presence. God bless you Mr. Tolle.
Eckhart Tolle, one of the greatest living masters of our time ! So full of gratitude for so many years of spreading your wisdom and putting on the fire for the deepest contemplation. Oceans of blessings and love to you ❤🙏❤️
Greetings from Chattanooga, TN. I had my liver unexpectedly taken away from me. I had a 2 week warning was the first I knew, then I would pass. I can relate to this video. Now, I wouldn't change a thing, even though I will be immunocompromised the rest of my life. I came home from the hospital exactly when Covid19 began, so I had my mobility also taken away, for 19 months, nothing but Dr. visits and monthly labs. I gained much more than I lost. Thank you for you time and for sharing your knowledge and wisdom.
Suffering is a teacher, it burns away the ego's delusions so that we can see clearly, it consumes the ego until it surrenders and silences itself so you may finally listen to your true voice. You can avoid years of unnecessary pain simply by listening to yourself honestly at any time and questioning all the things that lead to suffering. You'll realise that all pain is self inflicted and that you can stop it anytime, the purpose was to lead to your own self awareness, that's what makes suffering the greatest teacher because it only appears if you refuse to listen.
Love this. Me and my fiance always listen to this before going to sleep. Our nightly Tolle!
I’m convinced that suffering contains in it the greatest gift we can possibly receive.. if we accept our suffering and live with joy. This will make your experience in the present and appreciation for life more beautiful than you can imagine
BASHAR' SAYS: WE EACH ARE FREE TO GIVE LIFE MEANING,,,, what's important to you is IMPORTANT,,, but not the PUSHING IT ON TO OTHERS,that's where we go too far..❤❤❤
Cumulative personal and professional disasters = Prerequisites to experience Awakening.
Successful Awakening is built on failures...
Eckhart is tremendous.
Love instructions from, by, and with him
So grateful for the teaching
Lieben Dank Eckhart… Ich durfte schon sehr viel lernen. Herzlichen Dank und viele Grüße aus der alten Heimat.
Thank you sweetie for taking the time to share, love you ❤️🥰 yes I went through suffering and for that I am blessed and grateful. ❤
Wow is this the very truth.!! 💖 I can only now as I look through my story how many opportunities life has offered me to wake up to burn up my imposing ego😊 Reality is Beautiful
Merci Mr Tolle !...💗🙏
Obrigada 🙏
Thank you, Eckhart, for this wise and intelligent talk. 🙏🙏
This video came exactly on time: I'm suffering from a deep nihilism. 🎉❤❤❤
Be like a wave! Crashing is inevitable, but it doesn't care!
Crash! It's ocean!
Thanks for your wisdom 🙏🏻❤️
Haha… the spa two massages a day- so true that’s not when awakening happens. No you wouldn’t awaken… you would go back to sleep. Presence comes When it’s necessary. Things need to be difficult otherwise change doesn’t happen. Yes! Yes! Yes! And I Love your humor.
Thank you dear Eckhart, you helped me a lot!❤
Meister Eckhart was a Rhineland mystic. Hildegard von Bingen also. St Hildegard wrote treatises on Spirituality . My moms relatives were part of the Eppenburg and Meisenheim Catholic community.
I´m also a rhineland mystic...😀
Meister Eckhart & Eckhart Tolle are not the same person
@@moflo6093gottem. 🎉
Thank you for sharing this practical insight... ❤
Our minds are always offering us a choice of thinking material, sane or insane? Rational, happy, fun and peaceful thinking or Irrational, unhappy, fearful and anxious thinking. The option we go for is always our very own free choice, although we can't control the options (thoughts) offered the choice and decision is always ours 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you.
Thank you, dear Eckhard.🙏
I listen to your words in the absolutely right moment..
So thankful about your being.

Nihilism was a stage that helped me awaken, and I still have nihilistic beliefs. It doesn’t mean everything is random (evolution isn’t random either) but that there is no special purpose for humans or any other species for that matter. We’re not here to win a species for a creator or advance technology or whatever. We’re just here to be alive.
@@haraldtheyounger5504But what is the truth then ?
I do think that from the individual perspective everything IS meaningless. We are not here as individuals to LEARN anything, or ACHIEVE anything. Eckhart himself has talked about this. Living in a physical/ material world, we must DO, and yet we are aware of the futility of our doing. How could we not despair?
Even a small candlelight makes the world a brighter place.
Because the doing is intrinsically less valuable than being. Being is the substrate upon which all else is built. Once that is fully embraced and embodied, despair is no longer functional.
🙄
@@LM-uq9nv knowing what neither you or anyone else can possibly know at this moment in time, is true freedom from the need to know all the answers to all the questions. Others will share their personal beliefs and feelings and that's absolutely fine, but there personal feelings and beliefs are not facts, because no one actually knows the unknowable not Eckhart or anyone else. Let lives answer come to you by simply Accepting what is right here right now, Trusting all is and is always going to be OK, and simply be very Grateful for everything. Don't look for answers allow answers to find you 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Eckhart...I feel a lot better now. I was worried my life was a waste 😊
thank him so much

Thank you Mr. Tolle for sharing your knowledge and experience with us!
I needed this today❣️ My angels and guides are AMAZING to lead me to your Divinely timed message!!! 🙏😇✨ Thank you, Elkhart for fulfilling your life purpose and therefore helping us in our journey of transformation. You are so very loved❣️
Thank you TEACHER, the greatest !!
Every time I listen to Eckhart my understanding is deeper ❤️🙏
Simply fantastic talk… so clear so wise… thank you Master Eckhart! 🙏❤️
Now as I feel happiness after listening to random videos of this one of a kind human, I remember how I used to search specifically for his videos and gave up half way because I didn't have enough calmness to bear his calmness. The videos seemed toooooooo long!! I am glad we reconnect now. The teachers appear when the students are ready!
Did you graduate yet?
Waiting in line is not waiting but living!!
The meaning arrives retrospectively..... I will save this to watch again and again.
I can get a glimpse of what he is saying here. I'm 9 years free of cancer, but I am in constant pain from the procedures. I have to transcend this pain or face a lifetime of medication. Because this pain is always present, I feel that I must therefore shift my focus away from " me" or I can't function. I can understand how this causes a more inward focus. I became unaware of the pain when I am calm and when I meditate. Which is an ongoing practice day by day.
Please look up Sapien Medicine 🙏🙏💖💖
So sorry for your ongoing suffering 🙏
Weldone, keep going, keep doing, keep being!
maybe green smoothies or carnivore can help heal the body/pain. Brooke Goldner here on youtube healed her lupus with raw cruciferous vegetables and I have also seen a lot of people here on youtube heal chronic health problems with carnivore.
❤ Lovely pointing. Thank you Eckhart 🙏🏻
Thank you for this reminder, it is invaluable. I sometimes forget about the Universal purpose, when caught up in my own earthly existence. 🙏
We love you Eckhart!
thank you always
Much gratitude for your teachings
.....exactly what I needed...just now...
The Ultimate purpose is to be a bringer of Consciousness. Thank You for taking the time to make this video.
You make my heart so joyful my dearest Eckhart..
I needed to hear this today.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Thanks a lot for your work 🙏❤
Thank you, Mr Eckhart, for spreading the light of your consciousness into the world :) Immensely helpful, and much needed. Blessings :)
MR.T IS MAKING ME FEEL BETTER ABOUT LIVING MY ENTIRE LIFE BACK A WARDS BECAUSE I GOT TO THE POINT THAT I FINALLLLY WOKE MY TAIL UP😂😂😂
LOVE THE PEACE NOW OF REALIZING SIMPLICITY IS BEAUTY❤❤❤
we help the universe becoming self-aware.
Thank you for being 💖😊
Love the last 3 minutes very much. Wonderful video with great wisdom and explanation. Thank you Eckhart!
Thank you 🦋
The core message that Tolle is communicating in this video is also a central theme in the book of Job...
Usually I love the daily meditations with You Mr. Eckhart, but in this session you talk so fast and so much informations that I’d too much for me :(
Thank you Eckhart for bringing this message to the "me" this morning! It is just what I needed to hear... seems this message has been floating around in the background for some time now while sort of being buried by my daily monkey mind or nihilism. Awesome!!! Now to get back to bringing light and consciousness into "this", a renewed sense of allowing it to flow through this experience.
Thank you Thank you Thank you!
PS love your sense of humor.
Cheers
I love how Eckart makes it so simple and easy to link all the spots and draw a wonderful, meaningful picture. Listening to this man is a gift.
I‘m on a point - in deep breakdown, meaningless of everything - where I could not write on a white paper anything about me, who I am?! Nothing would be valid to write as nothing would feel - that’s me. If I would write something it would be the „old“ view of myself. The „new“ is not visible, felt at all and the (ego) mind pushes me to „to this“, „do this not“ but I don’t feel comfortable by any „forced suggestion“ by the ego mind.
At the moment I try my best to be in the blank me - in my inner SPA somehow.
Very very challenging time and I know, it’s necessary that „the Great Shift“ needs to come, the old (self & world in general) has to fallen, break down for the new what will/has to come 🙏
Wow. Right on time. Right on point. This is nice 😊 Thank you 🕊🕉🙏☯️🙂

Am I aligned with the purpose of the Universe?
It is bringing more consciousness into this dimension.

What does it mean bring more consciousness?
@@davidly2786 vou escrever em português, daí você traduz.
Recomendo que, dúvidas como esta, de assuntos espirituais elevados de mestres Auto-Realizados, você tente buscar uma resposta diretamente deles (como através de seus livros, vídeos, cursos, etc).
Compartilho contigo 2 recursos que eu uso e que ajudam a achar respostas à dúvidas específicas (como esta), que é:
- Na página do RUclips do Eckhart, vc ir em "buscar/procurar" e digitar a 'palavra chave' principal da sua dúvida (neste seu caso é: 'consciência', 'presença', 'plena atenção', etc).
- Outra forma é buscar pelo índice dos livros dele, o capítulo que mais se relaciona com a sua dúvida (mas neste caso você já tem que ter lido pelo menos uma parte do livro, pra ter uma ideia geral dos assuntos, termos que ele usa, etc).
Mas caso queira uma resposta minha, seria: 'trazer mais consciência' = 'expandir a consciência' = 'aumentar sua frequência' = 'evoluir' = 'o seu propósito primário na vida'.
Segundo o Eckhart, isto você consegue através de práticas espirituais. O Eckhart recomenda várias. As principais que eu sei são:
- praticar o 'foco da consciência nos sentidos (principalmente visão e audição)', a cada momento
- praticar o 'foco da consciência no corpo/campo interior (principalmente do interior do seu peito e barriga, quando há emoções negativas), a cada momento
- praticar o 'foco da consciência na respiração', a cada momento
- praticar o 'foco da consciência dos pensamentos', a cada momento
- quando há emoções negativas, praticar em conjunto (enquanto houver emoções nevativas, ou durante o tempo que você puder/conseguir/suportar): praticar a 'consciência dos sentidos a cada momento (principalmente visão e audição)', e a 'Consciência das emoções negativas' (que é a mesma prática do corpo/campo interior). Com isto a Consciência/Ser aos poucos irá transmutár as energias negativas em Consciência/Ser (aumentando seu nível de Consciência/frequência)'
- 'quando há pensamentos negativos, praticar (enquanto houver pensamentos negativos, ou durante o tempo que você puder/conseguir/suportar): a 'consciência dos sentidos a cada momento (principalmente visão e audição)', e depois substituir (ou ficar alternando) pela 'consciência dos pensamentos', pra Consciência/Ser aos poucos transmutá-los em Consciência/Ser (aumentando seu nível de Consciência/frequência)'
Tem outras, mas estas são as principais.
E praticando tudo isto, com o tempo, você passará a ter a 'percepção/consciênca da consciência/presença/Ser', que será o 'objetivo final' das práticas espirituais. Com isto, você terá expandido pra Consciência / Ser / Consciência Superior. Isto é o que ele fala que você será um 'portador de frequência (da Consciência/Ser)' que ele comenta, e terá cumprido o seu propósito primário na vida.
Mas a minha descrição pode ter erros (tanto minhas, quanto de tradução). Use apenas pra ter uma ideia. Depois substitua pela explicação do próprio Eckhart. Boa sorte!

@@haraldtheyounger5504 answer: 🤣
Thank you for your teachings 🙏
Thank you, I really needed this guidance today. 🙏
Fantastic, thank you dear Eckhart Tolle. I would like to personally add, if you are going through a particularly challenging dark night of the soul, it may be beneficial to spend some time in low stimulation and isolation. I 100% agree with Eckhart Tolle that awakening cannot be achieved in a spa, but I also think trying to juggle work/relationships/obligations long after they have ceased to be meaningful and contribute towards the higher and deeper purpose creates only distractions and chaos... when perhaps what's needed is a period of reflection and silence, like Buddha under the Bodhi tree, like Jesus in the desert, to go fully into the night and emerge out the other side.
I love Eckhart's little tree! We have an indoor tree just like this which was our Christmas tree. It's now putting out lots of shoots and will soon be our Easter tree! I needed to hear this talk today as I'd fallen into a slightly depressed state and as usual Eckhart has proved to be just the person I needed to hear. God Bless you Eckhart. I'm full of gratitude.
What a lovely soul .
