Does Adversity Strengthen or Weaken the Ego? | Eckhart Tolle Teachings

Gracias ECKHART, aceptar lo inaceptable, debería enseñarse en las escuelas. !! La música muy estridente, saludos y bendiciones. !!

Unacceptable music at the end gave me the opportunity to accept the unacceptable, lol, Still, a great video

I don't buy it; our job (if we are awake) isn't to be putting obstacles. It's like Jesus preaching to people, saw them hungry and instead of feeding them said: good, this is a lesson for you, now while being hungry watch me eating.

Such a wonderful learning experience. To accept the music was a good example of a challenge to acceptance. Thank you!!!😊

I thought the music had something to do with the mention of Steven Hawking since it started in synchrony with his name being mentioned. It was so peaceful until the music began. Needed to dampen the loudness in order to allow the music. Was tolerable after all. Probably intentional for our practice of presence?
