Don’t know what I would do without this guy
you would be yourself .
Scary thought to be eckhart-less....
@@karanfield4229Someone else would've taken his place, as he is merely speaking the truth
The mind is a faithful servant but a terrible master. Thank you Ekhart 🙏 blessings everyone
Faithful servant is sometimes a terrible master
Blessings to you too🙏🙏

Did you mean "Eckhart"?
bad habits and addiction are like toxic friends. they convince you that you need them, that they’re worth more than your friends or family, but every time you’re with it you feel worse and worse. eventually you have to learn to say “no, i will not listen to you because i don’t have to. you will not make me feel better and i don’t need you to”
The Song :( I Get Out ! )
The ego doesnt want to die. Leaving some habits is like you would abandon yourself.
Those words are so powerful.
Thanks Eckhart. I hit a very low point in my life. I gave up drugs alcohol and cigarettes 3 weeks ago today. It has been surprisingly easy because I was ready to blossom.. I realize its still early days but I feel stronger then ever and don't think ill ever go back. Thank you for your guidance.
Keep going friend and be strong. Best wishes from India.
How are you?
@Hazel Allison I hope you are doing well too! this channel has lured amazing people :)
Well blooming done, not easy, how brave you are, keep going you are heading in the right direction.
Thank you for sharing! I'm sure you're example of change is inspiring others! It would be great to hear how you are going now?
I have been a fitness instructor and personal trainer for over a decade and it wasn’t until I started implementing Eckhart’s teachings into my own work did I start to see long lasting change in the clients that I work worth. There is hope through suffering. Thank you for sharing this video 🙏🏻
When i am not in trouble these things leave me awestruck but when i am in even slightest disturbances around me i get anxious and doubtful ,feel something will go wrong . Something i am not able to grasp .
@@reenasingh-id9zh just focus on feeling you have when anxious. Take your consciousness and awareness to your body fully, on that feeling. Dont judge, think about it. That's all you gotta do to start the process.
@@deeman2200 thanks ,i have started this recently . I used to suppress my feelings earlier but now focus and let it pass . But i am concerned when dealing with everyday situation especially with kids when i am thinking of their wellbeing and they tend to move in random directions ,not safe and i get anxious and fear conflicts in the family .
@@reenasingh-id9zh that's great, keep continuing!
Do read power of now. Especially the concept of resistance. When we suppress feelings or worry, it's usually that we live in our minds not reality.
We are afraid of mind made situations. Since we identify with mind so much, we think its real.
This is also when we try to control situations or outcome. Because fear overpowers and we want things to be right.
Make a habit of watching your mind silently, each thought that appears and how mind builds a story will help you realize this.
I am also practicing and realizing this.
Good luck :)
I concur
It’s the human desire for pleasure in the moment that causes us to break our healthier choices . I know I feel much better eating healthy but sometimes that cake is what I want in that very moment.
It’s only your self you’re ever dealing with.
Yep
Seeing this video at the moment not wanna go to sleep, the smile I got when she gave that as an example.
The hard part is embracing where you are……wherever you are. Even the suffering. Your heart exists in this entire human experience. Becoming enlightened doesn’t mean you no longer have problems, or are beyond mental challenges.
Many times the wisdom that results from trauma-like situations has the power to permanently change conditioning - it's definitely not nice, but very powerful. Cheers to all suffering from trauma =)

This reminds of my pregnancy. How I loved my baby growing inside me. How afraid I was as time came to give birth.. Then suddenly I just wanted the baby to be born. The fear of giving birth left. And she was born. The joy of new life the pain of letting go of the pregnancy and accepting with joy new life.
That's really nicely said. )
🥰👍
"Go to the place of not knowing" I really like that, that i can do.
The temptation of staying in fantasy world is huge. I became present for some days. It was a awsome, I loved it. But the pull of the thoughts brought me back in the hole from where I came from.
Until now..
@@davidholm645 until now👉🤯
Listening to his speeches, makes a calm mind 😊👍 Thank you Eckhart 😊👍👍
Every time I watch these videos it feels like the first time
Good Morning and happy Friday y'all ☮
Good morning to you❤️ here in north Europe it is evening ☺️☺️
@@tiinaikonen6353 I'm late but Good Evening from Los Angeles! ❤☮🤞
My first time here! Per oprah Winfrey recommendation, I must say I love this man of enormous depths of life practicality
😊
Lordy, where have you been!?!
Welcome :) eckhart will teach you how to calm your nervous system and therefore be calmer and happier so you can enjoy life from a deeper more present moment :D his teachings are the basis mindfulness and meditation etc
Conditional behavior can be changed by living in the Now intensely. Living in the present moment leads to the acceptence of the reality.
The lady who asked the question has an amazing presence and honesty about her..like I can feel it merely by watching the video...
I was thinking the same thing. I really liked her question and how she framed it as well.
I was about to say that lol
It’s the presence in her that you feel within yourself...we are all connected on some level 🙌🏻
The caterpillar analogy is quite accurate and helpful.
And funny!
I was guided to this. It is exactly what I needed to see. Thank you so much.
This is just the beginning Madam.
There’s much much more in life.
The mind made self loves drama and problems so much it can go on and on with fake arguments but you have to focus a lot more to keep it interested in something positive
Perfect synchronicity.
"The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and the acceptance of Love." ~Marianne Williamson ❤️
That is mine, in a nutshell. 😊
Wonderful 😊❤️💕
Marianne over Ginger any day.
Or acceptance of now:)
There is no "spiritual journey". It's a misleading metaphor. You don't travel anywhere. You just become still and look inside.
you are glowing, master
I can relate to that experience where you Know you can be free but also at the same time feel lost . Because its like entering in complete emptiness! It takes courage to dive into that unknown emptiness and leave everything behind which you can never get back once you dive. It happened to me once but I will dive this time. 🤞
How well said, two directions, I feel
like you!
Had my own condition behaviours to let go off, thank you for this wisdom ❤
People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar. -Thich Nhat Hanh
Change happens when the pain to remain the same is greater than the pain of change. -Tony Robbins
Wow....could I relate! To lose that edge of enthusiam is painful....I have to give myself a pep talk most days....because the pain of the cater pillar did get THAT unbearable.
You cannot force someone to evolve..........soooo true
😊
All you can do is fully accept them for where they are in each moment
Yes.. that is like non- acceptance of reality 🙂
Through living out of consciousness, you understand the behavior of egoic and conventional thinking.
Understanding still implies mind activity though. See through it and don't get caught up in ego activity - even by understanding it.
Oneness ❤️❤️
It’s not easy for me feeling alone, but I’ll keep trying
Allow the feeling to exist, it’s not about getting rid of unpleasant feelings, it’s about simply being the observer of the feeling. Be the witness of the feeling instead of the victim of the feeling❤️take care beautiful friend❤️
@@ArianaReflects Thank you. 💖

Umm... Never knew a single comment on RUclips can make me feel connected to this much. It has so much of positivity and deep sense of awareness.
I don't subscribe to channels easily, snob about my choices, but hey.. I'm your 200th subscriber.
Wishes to you!
Thank you Mr. Tolle. I love you. 🕊️🌟😇
Omgoodness - I literally just asked you that question at the coffee machine whilst making my morning coffee 10 mins ago! 😄🙏🏽
Thanks this is great! I think I can actually get through the night without self medicating.
I am impressed by Eckharts' knowledge and his Spiritual growth. Even Jesus attends his seminars!
😄
I don’t like people who try to make others believe in what they want them to and not letting them believe in what they know and see within themselves so who’s to say what they see and know within themselves is not right believe me their are a lot of people who know who they truly are without ever being told by others. I know the same thing he is speeding without ever being told by any advisor this I s why I started listening to him because we were speaking the same thing. Now when someone tries to get me to do something that I don’t trust I have a problem with that.❤️😀
To awaken, to see the truth about the world and about yourself, it's very important to destroy all unncessary conditionings within you
I'm going to try fasting and being silent for 3 days. I want to let go of everything! I want to become a healer.
Hmmm
@@Paul-dw2cl with feeling it AS IF real, imagine already having. Our subconscious believes & attracts like vibes, bringing our desires to our circumstances. Be sure to have gratitude for all being good, or we get our desires in unwanted ways.
I just ask how the fasting was, did you enjoy your reflection time?
I saw 2 women at wrk killing an insect that was right next to an open door. They could have put it outside. It upset me. They think im insane . To quote one of them.. "you're one of 'those", i presume they meant a hippy, or something. They dont recycle or learn anything that could benefit the earth. They drink coke, eat terrible food etc etc. I'm judgmental and harsh even thinking like this.....but omg awakening, it's changed me. I realise I have so far to go.
Such a beautiful and honestly asked question ❤️
...and Answer!
To be free you awaken to who you are and go beyond your history and your life situation
Wow, Thanks so much for your words of wisdom.
Life-changing message 🙏🏿🙌🏿
Wow amazing video. I love how amazing technology is & how we can use it to transform our lives with info like this 🙏🏼 I learned that many people are not ready to let go of self harming habits because its who they think they are which is comforting for them. Most of the time until life becomes unbearable by those habits they won’t change, so what we control is sharing the triggers but its has to be taken by them at the end.
This is so helpful! 🙏
I can do so much more if I live mostly in the now.
Like for example healthy eating:
Because I only have to do it *now* .
Not for the last ten years (that's just a story) and not for the next 20 years (the future never arrives, it's only now when it happens).
Honestly how hard is it to do something *now* ?. It's only about 1 second. Choosing to eat cake or salad takes seconds. It's so easy to say to myself: just make the best choice now. That's all. And go off and do something else.
Wow. What a revelation.
I agree. Morover also bad eating = part of ego. Blaming yourself, telling that we are weak etc. Let the ego die
A lot of wisdom.
Thank you, came in the perfect moment. Butterflies.
Jesus sitting in the audience again.
Lol..noticed him straight away and scrolled down comments to see if anyone else noticed ...😃👍
I saw him too! 👀
@@The-Other-Guy Uhm? All of my family were born in the Middle east, my dad has white skin, green eyes and reddish hair, my mom got the palest skin too and light blue eyes. How about YOU use your head, especially the brain and eyes, instead of Tv? :D
@@The-Other-Guy Just a joke
@en we: we have a global crisis at this moment. Right? What is the statistical data behind it? What is the ego reaction behind justifying that interpretation of the corona statistics?
Just a wanna say, the awakening on earth now have a form of eckhart tolle i don't know if it's right or wrong but I'm still here watching learning from you .thanks 🤠
This is the perfect approach to it. Just "don't know". Don't "be right or wrong". Just be and watch.
She totally caught me out, I’m watching this after midnight 😂
observing mind on the spot it talks is a great revelation
I had grown-up I guess and I will share this with any one who will hear it I was younger and my friend got me smoking.....and as a winner abuses things I maxed out smoking and was doing so much I realized it was not giving the satisfaction anymore because I did it so much and I quit cold turkey....because I decided to move on and a lot of times I have heard if u have a good reason and good habit to take the place of the bad habit couple with your will strong commitment to changing for good or the better that may work....but as things go a into talk yourself out of change....great question she did a real awsum job of explaining her question thanks
I love you so soo sooo much. Have No Fear.
Jesus, in front row, checking to see if Eckhart is doing his job properly🤣
And he is my Lord. Believe me, he truly is.☮
The title has nothing to do with the content... 🧐😒
But, the subject is interesting, and ever so true!! One can't push a person to evolve. Only show a way or direction. 🙏
Change your heart to change the world.

@Catch545 dusty 🌟
That was incredible timing! I needed to hear that! Thank you!🙏🏻
No better time than now
…We want to be free…and we need a very safe environment to ‘let go’…and go to that place of not knowing. We’re so used to telling people, being told rather than simply Being with each other...that’s what would be so helpful-to see being with one another. 🙏🏼
This made me laugh so much... I can recognize myself in that caterpillar... I hope I moved on at last, but if not, I shall be patient with myself as I grow more aware of what still holds me back, until I am ready to become the butterfly I am meant to be!
You will get there. Patience and self respect are the ingredients
If eckhart is good enough for Jesus , he's good enough for me folks......🙏
Love that caterpillar story
Thank you , Eckhart, such a profound answer to the great question 🌌
Mary Canada 🇨🇦
Conditioned behaviour, reminded me of being blocked inside because of COVID and eating too much for comfort. It’s interesting, how do you get strength in unusual circumstances ? Or do you forgive yourself right away for your conditioned behaviour.
The moment you see through your conditioning you can consciously decide not to do it. Sometimes - like Eckhart himself experienced - you will still do things out of habit even though you know better. Then you can forgive yourself and move on instead of feeling bad and feeding your ego that thrives on suffering.
Thank you Life, for you are an amazing teacher!
I can so relate to this…thank you for enlightening me on this topic Eckhart 🙏💜
I “stumbled” across this at the perfect time. Thanks Mr. Eckhart Tolle
Thanks you for the wisdom
Live in the Now. That's how!!! ❤❤
love the story about the catepillar so true to life
Accumulation of negative experiences or embodiment of future promise in imagination.
I love the catapilar analogy
His impression of the wife made me laugh so hard
Friendly Reminder:
Those "Voices" that You Hear in Your Head ..
Are NOT You !
Thank for you the reminder ❤️ Wish they would stop harassing me
Thank you so much for other video sir!!
You are a great person 😚.

I know! And so are you😊
Thankful and grateful for sharing this video
Vielen herzlichen Dank 🙏
🧚🏾❤️😊
Thank you eckhart
Wonderfully explained
This came to me at exactly the right moment. Thank you, Eckhart. One question I have is this: does the response you gave apply to addictions as well? The questioner implied that addictions are of a different sort, but I’d be interested to hear what Eckhart thinks about that. Are addictions really so different from conditioned behaviors?
Its the same thing
An addiction is a compulsive obsession of the mind, which when left alone become unconscious habits formed as a response to an unpleasant feeling or thought.
I so treasure that reluctant caterpillar. LOL. Thank you.
Addiction is NOT a different force. Addiction to what was in the past is conditioning.
Thank you Eckhart 🙏💗🤗
literally any question:
Eckhart: Be present
Thank you Love and Peace
Thank you so MUCH for the lessons Dear Teacher!!!! Im learning how to acclimate to becoming a butterfly, i mean my habits/patterns r deeply set, n get in my way of teaching my wisdom from Crazy Cat Lady with a dream to guiding how-to enlighten others, as I go.... I've been practicing life coaching techniques, so I can help others when I get outta my coo-coo coccoon.... for NOW I'm content with feeling stable, not fully there.... cause coping with trauma is a daily management, but I SO APPRECIATE THE SUPPORT!!! God Bless!!! Love.... Peace.... Prosperity to the Many.... Clarity.... n CALM to US!!!
Perfect timing!
Thank you!
Yes
Best answer ever! I put it in practice already! It works! Is a process
Thank you! Love. Love. Love!
So wise. Psychotherapist for over 20 years, he is dead on.
Ah, thank you for this.
Waaaah magnificent example of caterpillar, thank you endlessly. Love from Mauritius.
This came in the perfect time for me. Thank you.
Thank you life
A perfect answer to a perfect question.Thank you for both.💚
You know you've made it big when even Jesus comes to sit in the audience to listen to you.
Thank You Eckhart ♥️😁
gracias...
My negative dreams are what have destroyed me over time. How to cope with constant negative dreams
Thank you for this deep and interesting talk 🙏❤
Guys, the idea isn’t to dissolve your ego. The ego is apart of life. A life without passion or illusion sucks, it’s just to keep you aware, to keep you balanced. It’s just to introduce your ego to you.
