“The primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but your thoughts about it. Be aware of the thoughts you are thinking.” - *ECKHART TOLLE* ☀️💜🙏🏽🧡
I sent this short clip to a deeply sad and unhappy friend advising their first step from unhappiness could be as easy as becoming aware of these beautiful words and the truism they encompass.
@@stephendixon5196 i gave copy of Tolles' A New Earth, to a friend who'd never heard of him & was later told that even after reading his other books, she still considered a New Earth as a good intro to Tolles' work. but yeah, these video clips are a great reality check.
This is so true. When I was being robbed, I started thinking positive thoughts. The thief thought I was ignoring him so he stabbed me and took my wallet. It took me 6 months to recover and now I can only eat through a tube, but I feel great about it! That's the power of positive thinking
It doesn't really matter how long it takes to be awaken. Somewhere else Eckhart said that mankind has been slept/mind-conditioned for thousands of years, and that it's awesome that some individuals are aware of that and start an awakening journey. I'd say the really important part is the awakening process itself. It is not a goal, but a journey.
“If you are irritated by every rub, how will your mirror be polished?” ― Rumi Thanks for the video Eckhart! Keep learning what moves you closer to your soul my friends 🙏❤️
To be fair, it would be worrying if certain behaviours didn’t make you experience irritation. You would never leave a toxic situation if you weren’t irritated by it.
@@bq1424 That isn't whar Rumi was referring to, this reads more like a comment on "Amor Fati" (Love of Fate). Irritation isn't the problem it is the resistance and avoidance of the irritation that is the problem. Allow the challenges to point out your flaws so you can continue to polish your mirror irrespective of external factors.
You are blessed with the awareness of Rumi's incredibly poetic and revealing light. Master Tolle is equally enlightening...especially with his joyful giggle.
The "Is-ness of the moment" is divine and alive. It can happen at the grocery store or on my porch. All I need to do is stop and notice! Eckhart is the MAN!
I'd like to let anyone coming across this know, that you are already okay, you just need to get your consciousness back from the situation it is caught up in and experience in the present moment. Don't create a narrative that's not there. Teach your mind to speak kind words to you, regardless of what's around you, remember that it's only you who can talk to yourself Nicely.
The more aware I am the less overall pain I experience. Putting that baggage down feels great, not caring what's in the suitcases feels even better. Thank you Eckhart your talks changed my life. I doodle your name! ❤
@@lisap3344 I wonder if loneliness requires some action steps. To connect, it is difficult in a pandemic. Reaching out to online groups?..things you might be interested in. And yes use the steps here. Call to the universe for loving connection, fill your thoughts with loving connection, start with what's around you, even loving connection to your cup, plate, the spider in the corner (even as you lift it gently outside). I'm attempting this with joy. As for some reason I've lost my joy due to fearful thoughts....so taking self responsibility to see joy, acknowledge joy, smile more, deliberately...I'm looking forward to laughing so much I can't stop...giddy with joy. Breathing with you! Kate
In addition to all the spiritual teachings,this gem of a man brings to us,there is nothing more delightful.. than when Eckhart mimics animals,babies and humans taking selfies ,etc😂🙏💜❤
Guillermo, it’s how our brains evolved. We are only recently out of the tree, and not fully out of the cave. May you be the light for others. Peace to you.
We cannot stop our mind from excess thinking but we may choose not to listen or believe or identify with whatever babble arises. Ignore it or change the channel or do some Wim Hof breathing exercises or ( )...
yes, even on audio, u can hear inflection in his voice, can picture what he's doing, if he were only in it for the fame or $ he coulda been among the best of rich famous actors, but he's having more fun teaching/delivering worthwhile true help to any & all of us who need it, ya?
@@mindsigh4 right! He's just so down-to-earth and doesn't mind being silly! I find myself picking up on some of his mannerisms that I really like and kinda doing them in real life 🤣🤣🤣
@@TheMirandalorian &a very good lesson is to watch him being interviewed or talking with tv or "entertainment" type personalities, he is always spontaneous & refreshing, he has a genuine good nature & people feel that, u can see it. like i told my brother about Tolle, all pretense has fallen off of this man like a rusty old muffler off a vintage car, it's just gone now & the car roars....
Agreed. We are all master creators of out own realities manifested through the beliefs and repeated thoughts we have in every moment, coupled with every choice we make 👌
@@bq1424 are you the abused or the abuser? How do you choose to define yourself? What is your story that you tell yourself? How does that story empower or disempower you? "The primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but your thoughts about it." - Eckhart Tolle
After 8 years of rigorous practice, I am free of all psychological suffering. It's hard to believe that so many years have passed since I first read power of now. I am in late twenties now.
TGP: Wow! You learned so young. People don't often 'grok' Eckhart until they've had enough of suffering. Congratulations my friend. ✌😎 P.S., You've found death before death found you. Way before. 👍😄
Sometimes when i have over thought something, it was legitimate. What i was being told didn't make sense. By overthinking it, I realized why i felt that way, if i was reasonable and solved the issue. All overthinking isn't bad. Sometimes action and thinking are needed or we'd accept anything as oh let it be. Nope, some things should not have a let it be attitude.
So, so true. The mind always makes a bad situation worse, but only if you let it. You have to train it like a dog. If you don't it runs riot, creating the fictitious narratives from where unhappiness can grow. Staying present is the strongest antidote to thought.
if it hadnt been for Tolle, i'd have listened to my mind," oh, uve tried this before, feeling present & all, that only lasts for awhile & then it's right back to where u left off, stuck in ur head, mumble...mumble... expletives..etc.,.." & then i'd have gone on to "review '' my next problem(S). but becuz he knows this about the mind, he repeats the suggestion to take a breath, feel ur inner energy field, feel the aliveness , the tingling in ur hands, & so on, & i figure, "well, he's been right before" & i try it again & yes, each time it is getting a little easier, with practice, to feel the inner body & pay attention, listening with my whole body instead of going round after round on that same old squeaky rat wheel in my head. Edit ;oh yeah, Thank You mr. Tolle !!🔑💥🔓🌿🐾👣🕊️🌱
Eckhart often expresses so intelligently what the root of our suffering is... allowing our mind which is only a tool, to steer the ship... "inspect your expectations"... peace!
"if i did not add any narrative to this situation that i'm finding myself in, how would i experience it?" this is so powerful and helpful to remind us to ask ourselves every single day when in a "difficult" situation. great talk and lesson as always🙏
🙏🙏 Eckhart Sir's teachings are so consoling. iam now undergoing serious tragedies and life threats from my own family... esp from my elder brother who does blackmagic on me. i sense great danger in near future... my life is on the verge of total disaster... within a few days my brother may succeed in ending up my life in an assylum. i deeply pray to God and Eckhart Sir for blessings and grace to be saved from my family and to be shifted to a place which is conducive for practising Presence and Spiritual Sadhanas. 🙏🙏
God Eckhart thank you so much for your teachings. I was feeling so sad from rejection but watching this is giving me some distance and lifting me out of the mood. Helping people suffer less is literally the nicest thing you can do for a person so thank you ❤❤
today, I experienced a great suffering. everything said in this video is wisdom and I felt every word of the speech. I'm so grateful for the light you are shining on humanity's soul, dear Mr. Tolle. namaste :)
People misinterpret what eckhart tolle says here, he still leaves a space open for circumstances playing a part in one's mental state. He is not saying all unhappiness is due to one's own thoughts, he is telling us to be aware what role we might be playing when we suffer. It is not either or, it can also be a gradient.
He is saying that exactly! Suffering begins and ends with you! The narrative in your head…your thoughts about the situation or person creates your reality. Your thoughts create an emotional response good or bad.
Interesting time to hear this. I left my house and went to a private airport to watch planes take off. I've been struggling with depression and trying to get my self realigned. The airport talk really got my attention.

@@andrereloaded1425 thank you so much Andre for caring, and your prayer and your kind offer to be there for me. I really appreciate. it. For right now difficult to.put something together because so complicated so just sending my best to you. 💕
The purpose of suffering is to awaken you. The greater part of your suffering is caused by the dysfunction of your mind and the narrative you tell, not the circumstances. The narrative is your excess baggage. You drop it by noticing your presence, breathing, and aliveness, like an alert bird! Thanks Eckhart. 🎡🥇🍇🌄🎁🥨🦒🕯🍦🐦😎📯🐳👻🐓🍾
We are all being beckoned to come back to the present, especially right now with what is going on around and within us right now. Thank you Eckhart for your wisdom as always. Much love, Marie-Louise
I agree, I've experienced rude people but I try and not give it attention and stay positive and send them love.💖💖that changed the whole vibe so rather than getting caught up in the negative mind narrative. I also laugh at it and see the funny side and awaken to the fact that everything that happens to us is the teacher and we choose between love or fear💚💚💚💚
@@lenakrupinski6303 I love your way of thinking and sometimes it is hard isn't it, especially when someone does or says something which hits a nerve. The challenges of everyday life at the moment has made us all either numb it out or consume some more through alcohol, drugs, spending, for example. Sitting with these uncomfortable emotions rather than reacting on impulse and allowing it always helps to release and transform in to something new, no matter how hard it is. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Happy Christmas 💖💖
Mr.Tolle, I always come back down from my craziness when I hear you speak. Thank You1 for your beautiful spirit and sharing it with the rest of the world. God Bless!
Like bashing your head against a brick wall because it feels so good when you stop. 😆 Probably 90% of psychological suffering can be avoided learning Eckhart's techniques. Or Adyashanti's, Osho's, Jed McKenna's, etcetera's, etcetera's. Learn to return to No-Self at will and reside in Nirvana for all eternity. And it's simple! (But not easy) ✌😎
This is exactly what I’m practicing at the moment, letting go of my mental narrative but of course I keep falling into unconsciousness and have to start all over again many times a day.
Thank you, Eckhart, for your wisdom, and precious sense of humour. In the present separation of right/wrong in the pandemic-narrative, the blame game of my pain body is very persistent, after family-clashes related to that subject. It's tough.
I used to love this quote, but then later it seems to me, it really Is judgmental and talks smack about people in the last two categories versus viewing them with loving kindness and understanding at their unconsciousness. Just sayin'... .
For everyone that is reading this. May god and the angels give you peace and fullfill you with love. Love is so powerfull and we must spread it all over the world to protect us from all evil. ❤🙏
I will tap into my strong resolve to stay honest on my path so I can show up honorably in the world and be proud of all of my actions. If I feel tempted to be less than honest, I will take a step back and explore what is driving that inclination so I can address it.
Michael, good for you. May I point out that there is “no you” to be honest. The sense of a self/me is an illusion just like the Ego. It’s attaching to this illusion that is the cause of our suffering. May you be at Peace. And, yes, please enjoy your path for now. May you one day realize… there is no path.
Wow … profound in less than 12 minutes . Thank you 🙏🏾 for that !! Great lesson … Often times the mental narrative precedes the actual situation. Keeping that mental narrative in check is the key to being able to be non judgmental even unto our own thoughts . 🙏🏾
Basically- this wonderful psihologist is teaching me how to be present to listen ti to the Holy Spirit voice and to live in this moment for my Lord Jesus- without allowing devil's thoughts on my mind! May Lord Jesus bless you beautiful soul with eternal life with Him.
4:20 the greater part of hu-man unhappiness arises out of a dysfunctional use of your mind, not so much the circumstances of your life. remember persons appear to be pursuing happiness, when they're really trying to avoid the pain of seeing their false self
Thank you so so much, Mr. Tolle!!! Thank you for these information, they’ve changed my life. Whenever I felt down, I turned to your books and videos, then I am reminded of all the mental voices, comments I have…I’ve learnt to tune in to myself and started to recognised more and more about our real life. I also don’t feel lonely anymore, especially during difficult times, because of your books and videos. Thank you so much 😊🙏🙏🙏
Blessings to all, I believe in you 🦋 You read this by synchronicity, the universe wants to assure you that you are on track and your manifestations are coming into reality steadily and lovingly 💛
I have a day of unenjoyable chores to do over the next few days. Every time I look at my list I get tense. And then I listen to Eckhart.... perfect timing....
@@EnlightenedCarnivore you're welcome. His latest one is a total godsend. Used it three times today. Have you heard of Kyle Cease too? Used to be a stand up Comedian, but now does the deepest work from a really transparent place. I have him on my list too. Always arrives at the right time 😊💫🎉
As long as we are alive and breathing there will be pain and suffering of some kind or another that we have to deal with. Some of it of our own doing and some by other people and events which we have no control over. Your own perception of events , people , places and labeling of them is paramount here. If you analyze, interpret, and label things wrong then your reaction or solution to them will be wrong. First you must diagnose right then your prognosis will be right. Have a nice life.
I have NO personal problems, but my heart aches when I witness current events and all the endangered species on our magnificent but polluted planet. It's hard not to think that the world would be better off without humans. 😔
Thank You From The Bottom Of My Heart Dear Eckhart .. You Are An Alarm Clock For A Sleeping Humanity ! For The Time Has Come For The Great Awakening And Right Standing Of Our True Self On This Side OF Eternity ! God Bless.
Thank you, once again dear friend, the simple reminder that we are incredibly powerful beings of both light and the "lightness" of being. The energy of Yultide encourages us to let go...how much easier to enjoy a simple full, deep, and cleansing breath. Blessings
I believe that life is like that, with risks, dangers, challenges and also with pleasant moments, with triumphs and also with misfortunes. Through infinite time, the beings of our planet have developed the ability to think, but now our species needs to evolve to continue existing, this is how life seems to be, life without beginning or end, the greatest of mysteries. But the important thing is that each one of the living beings manages to spend the time that we inhabit the earth, with peace, tranquility, well-being and joy, through evolving to the next step, which is enlightenment. As soon as enlightenment arrives, we can start by stopping the negative thoughts that the mind produces by being in the Now.
I've been a follower of Problacism for decades now, and I've only recently become aware of Eckhart's wonderful teachings. He doesn't yet realise that he's a Problacist too.
Accept the situation as it is . Don't allow ur thoughts to make the situation worse Focus on ur senses like breathing , hearing etc which helps u to be more present in the moment

Sometimes just need listen to Eckhart Tolle's teachings and no actions to take for coping with problems
The purpose of suffering is to awaken you.
The greater part of your suffering is caused by the dysfunction of your mind and the narrative you tell, not the circumstances.
The narrative is your excess baggage. You drop it by noticing your presence, breathing, and aliveness, like an alert bird!
Thanks Eckhart.

We are all being beckoned to come back to the present, especially right now with what is going on around and within us right now. Thank you Eckhart for your wisdom as always. Much love, Marie-Louise
I agree, I've experienced rude people but I try and not give it attention and stay positive and send them love.💖💖that changed the whole vibe so rather than getting caught up in the negative mind narrative. I also laugh at it and see the funny side and awaken to the fact that everything that happens to us is the teacher and we choose between love or fear💚💚💚💚
@@lenakrupinski6303 I love your way of thinking and sometimes it is hard isn't it, especially when someone does or says something which hits a nerve. The challenges of everyday life at the moment has made us all either numb it out or consume some more through alcohol, drugs, spending, for example. Sitting with these uncomfortable emotions rather than reacting on impulse and allowing it always helps to release and transform in to something new, no matter how hard it is. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Happy Christmas 💖💖
I SURE HOPE THESE BASIC E.T's lessons to end suffering, will be allowed as Electives in High Schools across America VERY SOON💗💖😊
No they won’t sorry
Mr.Tolle, I always come back down from my craziness when I hear you speak. Thank You1 for your beautiful spirit and sharing it with the rest of the world. God Bless!
One good thing about a bout of suffering--the relief you feel when it's over. :)
Like bashing your head against a brick wall because it feels so good when you stop. 😆
Probably 90% of psychological suffering can be avoided learning Eckhart's techniques. Or Adyashanti's, Osho's, Jed McKenna's, etcetera's, etcetera's.
Learn to return to No-Self at will and reside in Nirvana for all eternity. And it's simple! (But not easy) ✌😎
I LOVE you, Eckhart Tolle. You are a true blessing to this world. Thank you 😘💖🙏
This is exactly what I’m practicing at the moment, letting go of my mental narrative but of course I keep falling into unconsciousness and have to start all over again many times a day.
ET is one wonderful teacher on life. 🎉
"We're all just walking each other home."

Thank you, Eckhart, for your wisdom, and precious sense of humour. In the present separation of right/wrong in the pandemic-narrative, the blame game of my pain body is very persistent, after family-clashes related to that subject. It's tough.
“Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, small minds discuss people.” - Eleanor Roosevelt
💜 Heart-Based Manifestation RUclipsr
Yes!
La Mente del SER es paz y amor, sin discusión ❤️
Tener esa Mente es libertad.
True, but Mrs. Roosevelt was borrowing a Zen monk’s words.
I used to love this quote, but then later it seems to me, it really Is judgmental and talks smack about people in the last two categories versus viewing them with loving kindness and understanding at their unconsciousness. Just sayin'...
.
For everyone that is reading this. May god and the angels give you peace and fullfill you with love. Love is so powerfull and we must spread it all over the world to protect us from all evil. ❤🙏
I will tap into my strong resolve to stay honest on my path so I can show up honorably in the world and be proud of all of my actions. If I feel tempted to be less than honest, I will take a step back and explore what is driving that inclination so I can address it.
Michael, good for you. May I point out that there is “no you” to be honest. The sense of a self/me is an illusion just like the Ego. It’s attaching to this illusion that is the cause of our suffering. May you be at Peace. And, yes, please enjoy your path for now. May you one day realize… there is no path.
This man changed my Life thank yuo
Wow … profound in less than 12 minutes . Thank you 🙏🏾 for that !! Great lesson … Often times the mental narrative precedes the actual situation. Keeping that mental narrative in check is the key to being able to be non judgmental even unto our own thoughts . 🙏🏾
Being alone is having Peace with yourself 🙏 Amen
"Narrative. Excess baggage we carry around in the mind...." loose the narrative.... Thank you Sir, such a beautiful lesson so beautiful. Shalom.
God I love listening to this man.
Basically- this wonderful psihologist is teaching me how to be present to listen ti
to the Holy Spirit voice
and to live in this moment
for my Lord Jesus- without allowing devil's thoughts on my mind!
May Lord Jesus bless you beautiful soul with eternal life with Him.
Thank you Eckhart I still struggle with presence and physical pain but even that’s better than it was 😊✌️
Thank you Consciousness. You have blessed millions through Mr. Eckhart. Much gratitude and appreciation. 😇🙏🙌👍👼❤
Eckhart is a God.
4:20 the greater part of hu-man unhappiness arises out of a dysfunctional use of your mind, not so much the circumstances of your life.
remember persons appear to be pursuing happiness, when they're really trying to avoid the pain of seeing their false self
Thank you, Mr. Tolle. A timely teaching, as always. With a deep sense of gratitude and love. 🙏
The awakening was, the more I listen to you and then implement the teachings into my daily life. Thank You ❤️
Thank you so so much, Mr. Tolle!!! Thank you for these information, they’ve changed my life. Whenever I felt down, I turned to your books and videos, then I am reminded of all the mental voices, comments I have…I’ve learnt to tune in to myself and started to recognised more and more about our real life. I also don’t feel lonely anymore, especially during difficult times, because of your books and videos. Thank you so much 😊🙏🙏🙏
Blessings to all, I believe in you 🦋 You read this by synchronicity, the universe wants to assure you that you are on track and your manifestations are coming into reality steadily and lovingly 💛
I have a day of unenjoyable chores to do over the next few days. Every time I look at my list I get tense. And then I listen to Eckhart.... perfect timing....
"Enlightenment is doing one thing at a time" - Eckhart Tolle (perhaps he was quoting someone else) 🙄
@@EnlightenedCarnivore I don't care who he was quoting - brings peace to me 😊
Also loving Matt Khan's little gems too at the moment. Bliss. 🙏💫🤗
@@NothingByHalves Thanks for Matt Khan, new to me. 👍😎
@@EnlightenedCarnivore you're welcome. His latest one is a total godsend. Used it three times today. Have you heard of Kyle Cease too? Used to be a stand up Comedian, but now does the deepest work from a really transparent place. I have him on my list too. Always arrives at the right time 😊💫🎉
@@NothingByHalves Never heard of Kyle Cease either. Thanks for sharing! 🥰
"The greater part of unhappiness actually arises through a dysfunctional use of your mind" 04:20
Love respect and gratitude. You are unlimited. Amazing energy to you and to flow
As long as we are alive and breathing there will be pain and suffering of some kind or another that we have to deal with. Some of it of our own doing and some by other people and events which we have no control over. Your own perception of events , people , places and labeling of them is paramount here. If you analyze, interpret, and label things wrong then your reaction or solution to them will be wrong. First you must diagnose right then your prognosis will be right. Have a nice life.
I have NO personal problems, but my heart aches when I witness current events and all the endangered species on our magnificent but polluted planet. It's hard not to think that the world would be better off without humans. 😔
Unconsciousness with Truth, Peace, Wisdom from Being, becomes Consciousness.
Whatever is present moment contains
Accept it 😊
Accept it, then deal with it from a non-reactive state. Yes? Always returning to the place of inner stillness. The Watcher. 🙂 I Am.
Thank You From The Bottom Of My Heart Dear Eckhart .. You Are An Alarm Clock For A Sleeping Humanity ! For The Time Has Come For The Great Awakening And Right Standing Of Our True Self On This Side OF Eternity ! God Bless.
He is 🏆 material~ gentle, intelligent, nice, unpredictable when funny.
Thank you, once again dear friend, the simple reminder that we are incredibly powerful beings of both light and the "lightness" of being. The energy of Yultide encourages us to let go...how much easier to enjoy a simple full, deep, and cleansing breath. Blessings
Needed this. Thank you 🙏🦋❤️😇
I LOVE YOU ECKHART
"I" never created anything but the "i" certainly claims it does. That is at the heart of what ever this is.
Love you Eckardt!!! Thank you for leading us back to our True Selves..🙏♥️♥️🌻🌟
I believe that life is like that, with risks, dangers, challenges and also with pleasant moments, with triumphs and also with misfortunes. Through infinite time, the beings of our planet have developed the ability to think, but now our species needs to evolve to continue existing, this is how life seems to be, life without beginning or end, the greatest of mysteries. But the important thing is that each one of the living beings manages to spend the time that we inhabit the earth, with peace, tranquility, well-being and joy, through evolving to the next step, which is enlightenment. As soon as enlightenment arrives, we can start by stopping the negative thoughts that the mind produces by being in the Now.
I've been a follower of Problacism for decades now, and I've only recently become aware of Eckhart's wonderful teachings. He doesn't yet realise that he's a Problacist too.
'Many obstacles have to be overcome not only for humans...' Got that
Ulrich Tolle is a great story teller.
Dear Eckhart, I really really like your teaching. You are very cute and humour teacher too. Always love you. 💜🍀
This man speaks absolute sense. I should know!
Sadhu 3x 🙏🙏🙏.
Thanks so much for this dhamma, Eckhart Tolle, just when I need it most.❤️
Our mind is so complex. I love Echart 💟
Thank You Eckhart 💗 much Love to all of us 💗🤗🙏
The soundness of one's dharma is evidenced in challenges.
Thank You Eckhart. Much love to You! 💖
“Recognise that 'unlearning' is the highest form of 'learning” ― Rumi
Ty🙏🏻 joy comes after the thing the brings it, it’s not the thing to go for. It’s to be for.
Accept the situation as it is .
Don't allow ur thoughts to make the situation worse
Focus on ur senses like breathing , hearing etc which helps u to be more present in the moment
