      Wahid I served in the US military and I want to say I am sorry for what you have been through. I hope you know that not everyone looks down on the afganis or any one else a part of the middle east. It's sad that the US military has caused so much havoc in that area of the world and it was due to many of our unconscious states of mind and the manipulation from certain leaders and media. One day I hope we all can remember we come from one source and are a part of that source weather we know it or not. Much love to you brother.

    For me, No one has ever made more sense of spiritual teachings than this man. His words ring true from deep within. They echo so many other spiritual teachings but in a way that I am not pretending to understand. The understanding is felt from within. I cannot describe the comfort this approach brings to me and my anxious fearful self. Far better than any drug or therapy I have encountered for the past 20+ years.

      All a spiritual teacher can ever do is point you towards that which you've forgotten. For me, Eckhart's vocabulary and way of articulation was the perfect pointer. As you said, I was no longer pretending to find the thing it was pointing it, but actually found it!
      His vocabulary may not work for everyone, but it is for many.

      I would feel that after Karate, my teacher used Tai Chi in every class. I would lay down and feel my awareness was larger than my body, or my conscious was feet above my body.
      Years later I began meditating to project and now I better understand that feeling. Beautiful and so peaceful.

    Dear Eckhart, I am so grateful you have taught me so simply how to to meditate and make it light. Just being with the Present moment and letting thoughts just flow on or away like water or air . Thoughts no longer frighten or anger me ( for long). I am so grateful I can look forward to meditating. It is as easy as breathing. I can even do it on my own. It is early, but digestion and sleep are improving. I am finding release and relief. My gratitude to you . Blessings

      Beyond all that, there’s the fierce, capitalist
      machine behind Tolle’s work to contend with. Nearly everything this guy
      touches these days is being turned into a product intended for “your
      awakening,” and I don’t get the sense that he has any problem with that.
      In fact, I think the packaging of Tolle as a non-threatening spiritual
      guru has not only lead to wildly higher sales and spreading of his
      message, but also wholesale rejection of his work by those like myself
      actively resisting capitalism, colonialism, and the commodification of
      spiritual practice.

    After 40 years of meditation, I want to add something. I've learned there are many ways to meditate. I really love his concepts and talks. I have learned to focus my thoughts on certain words which are really inner feelings. This awareness of the self, the presence, manifests in feelings within. Some have named it the fruit of the spirit. First, some words that represent feelings of calmness... peace, love, trust, humbleness. Yogananda said the first sign of success in meditation is feeling peaceful. The second type of feeling is more like excitement... one could focus upon feeling joy, enthusiasm, strength, and unlimitedness. One example of a meditation using words... breathe in (and really try to feel) peace, and breathe out stress and anxiety. Do this repeatedly. Really feel calmness, peace. Breathe in trust, breathe out fear. The power of positive thinking can be viewed as the power of positive feeling. Also, many meditation practices begin by relaxing the body, where we sometimes hold stress. Breathing exercises can calm the body. Progressive relaxation of all the muscles is another. Even exercise or a hot bath or sauna can relax the body. Anyway, hope this may help someone. Don't worry, feel happy. Peace.

      the thing about most meditation is that it is less easily transferable to daily activities....as they focus on limited perceptions as their goal. IE you may focus just on your breathing. Eckhart is recommending a much broader arena of focus which is somewhat unique.

      Beyond all that, there’s the fierce, capitalist
      machine behind Tolle’s work to contend with. Nearly everything this guy
      touches these days is being turned into a product intended for “your
      awakening,” and I don’t get the sense that he has any problem with that.
      In fact, I think the packaging of Tolle as a non-threatening spiritual
      guru has not only lead to wildly higher sales and spreading of his
      message, but also wholesale rejection of his work by those like myself
      actively resisting capitalism, colonialism, and the commodification of
      spiritual practice.

    Wonderful speech The Journey into the NOW 1) Aware of your surrounding through your sense perceptions 2) Acknowledge of life 3) Feel the aliveness pervading in your body 4) Leave space between your thoughts 5) Can you be aware of the fact that you are aware ? The essence of now is ultimately who you are. There is no self. Have a good live in spacious awareness. (from Turkey)

    I used to meditate for years TM, Buddhist, Holosync which can be restful. However I used to still get very irritated during meditation. Then I read about The Power of Now. Understanding how the ego is at the root of many problems is far more helpful. I no longer meditate as it does not really change the problems caused by the ego. Being aware of the ego is very important and eliminates self inflicted problems that we blame on others.

      Sure, if you’re focused on the present moment, you won’t be ruminating on your problems. But that doesn’t mean you don’t have any problems. If you don’t have any money and you’re homeless, that problem doesn’t go away merely because you stop thinking about it.
      I know Tolle spent some time homeless, and he didn’t feel like he had a problem. But it’s possible to have problems and not realize it. Being in a state of ignorant bliss is no use if your life falls apart around you. If I close my eyes while driving, the other cars are still there.
      And what if you’re out walking and an angry dog chases you and bites hold of your leg? You can focus on your breathing all you want, but the problem still exists.

    Meditation is a mysterious concept that some people might find difficult to comprehend. The easier way to get into the mood of getting awareness of the surrounding and yourself is go do observational sketching. When you spend the time observing the surrounding, and then putting what you see on paper, you will enter that state of mind, the right side of the mind, and will be able to observe things that you have never observed before, and being to see things in a new light.
