I’ve been trying to get back to that childlike way of thinking as I’ve gotten older, which is just accepting things for what they are, rather than letting my thoughts run wild and create meaning about every single thing.
It does get easier with practice and self observation. For example, one time I was out walking and when I passed a neighbor's property I thought, "Why do they pave over their front yard instead of just planting some low-maintenance bushes?" Like it was any of my business! It made an impression on me and I think of it often when I catch myself judging things now. Little Miss Judgy. 😂
Hi Lacy, it helps to remember that our thoughts are neither real or necessary, there are no thoughts that need to be thought about and equally there are no thoughts we are not free to think about enjoy. When we were kids everything was a game and it still is if we just use our imagination rather than allowing our minds to use it. Our minds use our imagination to create worries and fears that are just not real, there is no law to say we must believe our minds fearful fantasies 😊 and equally there is no law to say we are not allowed to use our imagination for fun again,, next time you see a puddle, jump in it 😊why not? 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I like that he said you can witness your thoughts fabulous! Lol
Yes, judging, judging, judging ...Lacy you could say it is connecting with who you are, instead of considering it being childlike, as another thought and Identification by your mind to define what Echkart is saying here.
@@TerriblePerfection I totally get what you mean since I experience the same thing over and over.
But on the other hand, that observation (or judgment) could be used to create new ideas or inventions, right? In that case, could it be still considered as "judging" or "creativity"?
The moment a human realizes that they are not the content of their own thinking, is the same moment there given the opportunity of sustained awakening. But to sustain awakening takes responsibility and discipline. Hence discipline equals freedom!!
" You are the SPACE between the thoughts" quote Eckart Tolle. There is all the love of the Universe in it. So grateful.....💓🙏
My favourite Eckhart teaching,, thoughts that judge other thoughts, such a relief for those with OCD and intrusive thoughts to hear Eckhart address this horrible mental health struggle 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Amazing. All thoughts are opinions. Stop cherishing opinions. Pure WISDOM❤
I don't always express my opinion 🤷 lately. I just let other people talk. The strange thing about it is your thoughts change as you live and grow so therefore your opinions change too. So I don't get too stuck in one thought on something 🤔 I'm open. I've been called out for changing my opinion. I just say yep I've changed my thoughts.
Changing our opinions in the light of new information becoming available to us is surely a wise way to live and grow, defending old thoughts opinions and beliefs despite all evidence and information is surely closing yourself off to new experiences and understandings 🙏🙏🙏🙏
"Don't seek for the truth, just cease cherishing opinions." WOW!
Sending gratitude from a Daoist monastery near Seattle (USA)! 💙
Hi great to know there is one in US. May I know what kind of practices you guys do there?

Sit quietly.
We do nothing.
We sit and we let the grass grow by itself.
If you do anything, you'd destroy the grass.
Who can be still until the mud settles down and the muddy water clears itself??
Any doing leads to conflict.
We only cease to let the mind interfere in the unfolding.
Watch.
No talk can explain the Way!
Words! Words! Words!
The Great Way is beyond any words!
Zen happens only in Silence. Not in language.
When I was young a got trapped in quicksand , the beauty of quicksand was absolutely incredible
It was the universe 🌌
That spacious awareness ....that allows all thoughts to come and go ....don't cling to them .
Thoughts that judge other thoughts. So familiar!
I love you Eckhart Tolle! 💙
I cling to Love . . .
You don't need to believe every thought you think. I love this video. Thank you 😊
Do not seek for the truth, merely cease to cherish opinions or cling to ideas, this does not mean don't have opinions and ideas but simply cease to cherish opinions and cling to ideas as if they were the truth. Such simple yet such profound wisdom 🙏
Knowing and truly accepting what neither we or our minds can possibly know is such a liberating and beautiful thing 🙏🙏🙏
You are such a blessing to the world and existence. Bless your soul and your presence. 🌈
Love this video. 💗 As someone who has OCD and can get anxiety from scary, intrusive thoughts, this makes sense on a spiritual level.
I relate with you 💗
@@ItsMia916 I relate too Mia, I was lost in this horrible mental circle for around 5 to 7 years where I spent 95%,of my waking days thinking about how to stop thinking or how to stop fearing my thoughts or taking responsibility . Waking up each day just hoping your mind will go easy on you in the day ahead, absolutely horrible. One of the best things I ever read was from someone in the comment section on this site, they wrote "They are not your thoughts, they are not even about you",! Unbelievably enlightening and liberating comment, I'd love to take credit for it myself, but alas my conscience won't let me 😊😊😊🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@johngreen4683 I’m so happy that you were able to get out of that anxiety and cycle! There are days that I’m still stuck and count the hours for bedtime. I have more days now when I’m able to quiet my mind even if just for a little bit at a time. How are you doing with it now? Sounds like it’s better 😊🙏🏼
@@ItsMia916 hi Mia I'm doing much much better now thank you but I still have odd time's when I struggle, especially when I'm really tired. But thank God I don't struggle anything like I once did back my most difficult days. If I do struggle I simply remind myself that "this is not real",, the biggest tip I can give anyone is don't analyse your intrusive or fearful thoughts and feelings, just accept they are not real and put your attention elsewhere 🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@johngreen4683 Wonderful tip! You’re a very kind soul 💗 My main obsessive thought has always been about dying and becoming nothingness. I’m learning that no one has the answer (not even our dear Eckhart), so I’m trying to surrender to the unknown and stop the obsessive thoughts which lead to depression and anxiety. Being aware of thoughts not being us is the first step like you said 🙏🏼😊💗
You become happy when u dnt think about your life
if you don’t think about your life how will you ever improve it? this comment is nonsense
@@TAKING-EVERY-SOUL indeed, you are right, here we are talking about unimportant thinking.
Pure joy to hear Eckhart talk about presence 😊
Dear Friend. Ponder much about human anatomy and physiology as we do have a Third Eye. You see with you eyes of the light of this physical world with ones eyes. You hear from the air transmitted world with your ears. You feel from this physical world with senses held within your skin. Know this Thoughts can be transmitted to your brain by Rods and Cones found within its center, like a Antenna found within your Brain. One must tune ones channel select by your heart. Thoughts come from your tuning and your soul. Who and What do you seek. All have the ability to manifest and know what is mediated by ones heart.
The word spiritualism is usually more than sufficient to make me run for the hills, but Eckhart makes a whole lot of sense
You are not the thoughts themselves, but the space into which they enter. Beautiful.
I love Eckhart - a truly enlightened person that speaks to us in a "so called" modern society - a voice that attacks the "ego" voice in these times . Each one of us is into her/his ego because we believe we are fragmented splinters "running around out there" . The rule of our egos will only cause us to lose our cherished relationships and believe that getting a dog, and dressing it up will fulfill our "human" needs. If you are fragmented, you have np sense of continuity - of being interrelated to the "vast expanse" . Once you truly experience the direct experience of the vast spaciousness of the universe, you will never be afraid of death because, like Socrates, you truly believe there is no death..
This is so true. The most volatile people are the ones who 'practise' spriritual principles without entering into the state of consciousness of the Masters who taught them. Very important to know so you don't go postal!
Love is the frequency of Father. Tune the inside of your cup to receive his channel then you can become one.
The teachings from the dao with my student mentor have helped me so much with my severe anxiety
You are not your thoughts, powerful teaching ☺
Beautifully explained touching the very core of heart .
Love Father with all your heart.
More accurate is that you are the emptiness and Spaciousness in which the thoughts arises
Listening to every upload now .. 😘😍
I believe this is one of his older teachings from years ago.
Thanks from Brazil 🇧🇷.

That was one of the greatest Zen Masters who ever lived.
The third Chineese Zen Patriarch.
The book:
Hsin hsin Ming.
The opening line sums up the whole path:
"The Great Way is not difficult for the one who has no preferences".
This is it!
thank you eckhart
Oh, I am not my thoughts . . . what was I thinking?? Thanks for that - I am hyped!
Thanks for the smiles and laughs and such beautiful wisdom , hi from Australia ☮️👑💙🎵💯💖🎼🎶🌈
I relief I got after hearing this is amazing, thank you so much for putting this into perspective for me
Just when we needed him most.. 💥
Beautiful smile…. His joy is so infectious 😊
Comes at the right time🙏
I had this really vivid dream many years ago that I never forgot. In the dream someone asked me to get up on stage and tell some stories. I did and people were clapping and laughing and I felt all important and inflated. They loved me. Suddenly, people were throwing things at me, calling me names and telling me how horrible I was and there was instant deflation. Then everything evaporated and a voice, neither male nor female, yet both, coming from neither inside or outside, yet both, said "Have no opinion. Hold no judgement. Therein lies freedom". In the dream there was recognition of the true "I" and that people liking me or disliking, were the same. Had nothing to do with "me". Egoic identification inflates and deflates and it brings suffering that is unnecessary. The true "I" is free.
You obvs fell asleep with this video playing. Just because he's baby-faced doesn't mean he's neither man nor woman, though 🤔
Attachment to thought will always lead to conflict.
YES! I love these teachings! I see new Age teachings keep saying "you are your thoughts" -on a daily basis and it's not true! We are not our thoughts! We are not our feelings! We are the awareness, consciousness, soul.
A statement that always assists me is: "Isn't that interesting!" 💛 💫 🌟
Eckhart tolle is the Best spritual teacher on earth
There are maaaaaaaaaany more you haven't discovered in India.. i also thought he was the best.. then that thought changed.
Thank you very much, for this moment .🌸🙏😊

after waking up
You need a right religion to be born again
Awakening helps relieve psychological problems
But religion protects your soul

My thoughts evolve as I awaken.
So lovely.
Love um Eckhart 💜
J'adore celle là ! 😁
Thanks for your teachings, very helpful, 👌🙏❤️
@Jesus Bermudez dude, what are you talking about?
@Jesus Bermudez it's not you but your egoic mind that fears Eckhart, it is afraid of change, but you are not your mind and so you have nothing to fear, only your mind is afraid my friend 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you 🙏
Rare to find somebody that keeps the truth simple. Know thyself.
Hhmmmm that was interesting 🤔 and landed perfectly I could so relate this to a situation that happened recently Thank you for this teaching 🙏 💞
I dream of Eckhart reading the entire Tao Te Ching in deep presence on camera before his on passing for the world.
Sería genial que incluyeran subtitulos en español!!
Wonderful specially for the subtitle ❤thank you ❤
So enlightening! I felt identified, of course! :) :) ;)
so timely 💙
Exactly what I needed to hear, thank you ❤
I like this vest. Haven't seen it in a while
Great video
thanks.....!🧡ྀི💛ྀི❤️ྀི
Great interpretation of this practice
Everything That Arises in Your Spaciousness_Beingness ultimately is not You is just and aspect of Thy infinite Eternal/Self
Love and Blessings
Be aware of your opinions and thoughts, but don't cherish them. Otherwise your identification with them make you defensive or aggressive. 🌷🏇🥀🥀
You are the space for all opinions. But you aren't opinions. 🦒🐳🎪🎪🐇
How to discover the truth? Stop cherishing opinions! 🌷🐧🐦🏆🥀
Thanks Eckhart. 11 November 2022.🚣♂️🍾🐦🐇🐞🌷🌷
_The Master keeps her mind_
_always at one with the Tao;_
_that is what gives her her radiance._
_The Tao is ungraspable._
_How can her mind be at one with it?_
_Because she doesn’t cling to ideas._
_The Tao is dark and unfathomable._
_How can it make her radiant?_
_Because she lets it._
_Since before time and space were,_
_the Tao is._
_It is beyond is and is not._
_How do I know this is true?_
_I look inside myself and see._
~ _Tao Te Ching - Verse 21, translation by Stephen Mitchell, 1995_
.."the master keeps her mind always at one with the Tao" - why just the mind? Thought (not to be confused with thinking) is how existence exists. When speaking about the physical aspects of expression, muscles are the conductor of thought. To believe that thought is only of the mind, is self seeing self in limitation...where as the heart and stomach (all muscles), are working coherently with the brain to conduct thought into physical action or potential physical action. But aside from the confusion of understanding the difference between thought to thinking, there's lots of talk of separation and expectation with the Tao, that it contradicts itself. How can there be a "natural" flow, when it state there are laws and principles to follow? Who's making these decision for MY natural flow? @lightsource369
감사합니다 덕분에 배웁니다 _(())_

Not the good nor the bad thoughts.

Eckhart, do the emotions of sadness still arise in you?🙏
i guess he will say:
of course i have,
i just let it there, don't cling to it.

My daughter is A neuro divergent autistic adult with severe OCD and other co-morbidities...i as her mum are now her FT carer..I resonate with this understanding but she isn't able too....what then ???
Perhaps find ways to help her experiencing being beyond thought, spend time in nature, doing a favorite hobby (deep focus and flow) etc. And you could ask her if she feels more herself/alive when in those moments... And if YES then suggest its because she IS her full self when she's just doing and being, when experiencing those things, not getting lost in the "monkey mind" as i call it. :) Blessings to you and your daughter ❤️
@@vintage_violet I couldn't have hoped for a better or more enlightened answer...thankyou so much for taking the time to respond...I will definitely try as you suggested....sometimes I'm so close to the issue I get lost in the mire ...God bless 🕊😇
