Eckhart Tolle is one of my absolute heros. Even after listening to Alan Watts since I was a teenager, on the back end of a failed relationship I listened to the Power Of Now about 10 times, and it helped me transmute the suffering and grief into complete peace and joy, and inspired me to start my coaching practice and channel to help others.
Alan Watts & Eckhart Tolle are the same entity , but different personae ~~ Jesus asked a question " Will there be faith on the Earth when the son of Man returns ? The answer is always " Yes "
I read his books and the (power of now) in Prison ! And i feal so peacefull and calm there it was verry weird Even family thought what happen to u ...ur in prison !!! and Happy ? Then i came out and verry soon i felt back in suffering .....even more then in prison :) Now i watch a lot of video,s from eckhart daily And the peacefull feeling and presence is here again ...Thanks for the teachings!
My older son thanked me recently for introducing him to Eckhart Tolle at a very young age. Many times when we would ride in the car I would have Mr Tolle's CDs playing. I wanted my son to learn these great lessons at a young age.
I have a 9 year old son, and I really used to get a little upset with myself for bringing him into this world. My faith in humanity was so low and I didn't want him to suffer. But now, I feel he is here for an important reason and will help spread the love that so many of us need. Everything happens for a reason.
Big Master My area is like every other. I'm speaking of the country, the world from what I know. Ignorance exists at a high level, I've experienced my fair share first hand. I have traveled, even to 3rd world countries, and I still feel the same. But Thx, I appreciate your suggestion 👍
horse with no name I understand what you mean. I feel each side has a p.o.v. that holds validity or makes some type of sense. My fears came from seeing first hand what people do to other people, racism, hate crimes, gang violence, military being used for an agenda other than peace etc... All I could picture was how I'd feel if my son had to go through what I witnessed. It's an awesome/beautiful world, and a dangerous one too. Now, I'm just at a point of acceptance that I'm teaching him everything I can to assist his survival when I'm gone. Thanks for the words, I enjoy discussions like these.💯
I had my third breakdown in February which was such an horrific nightmare I swore never to return there again. I read books & watched/listened to videos including Wayne Dyer, Louise Hay & Eckhart, what I have learned is now a part of me & is used every day. Awareness, consciousness & enlightenment are powerful tools that change our lives for the better. I continue to learn & practice every day, never to return to my nightmare again.
This modern era philosopher is as innocent as a baby and as wise as ancient philosophers, I have been listening to him from early on, read his books, still much to learn deepest gratitude 🙏
As the late great Dr. Wayne Dyer once said....“Your greatest pain becomes your teacher.” After I lost my husband in 2013 I have gained so much insight and wisdom and peace. So when he speaks about the nightmare and the results of...I can really relate!
only just come across this guy. i find his knowledge amazing. i can make real sense of what he says and it sort of has an instant calming effect on my mind. i been having so many problems in my past. stress,depression and using booze and all sorts of drugs over the years. i was a mess. then i started to look into different spiritual things. i started to look into the Buddhist way of thinking and also the hindu side of things. to me its just different perspectives. i really am a newbie with all this but within a year or so i seen a massive change in myself. A year ago, i remember walking down the river feeling so stressed and depressed about life, a year later i'm walking along the same walk but feeling calmer and having little moments of bliss. i know i must carry on this path, no going back. i'm going to be watching plenty of Eckhart from this point forward to help me on my path
EGO is like shell. Remaining in shell is comfortable. The process of breaking the shell of our own EGO and embracing the Universe with sense of belonging and Inclusiveness is the journey of life towards Awakening. Stronger the EGO, stronger the feeling of suffering. Accept it as process for Awakening, less is the suffering in due transformation. Our loved children too have to go through.. Thanks Eckhart. Lots of Love 🎎
Eckhart is like Jesus to me today. His presence is so peaceful and pleasant. When the temple guards were sent to arrest Jesus, he was speaking to the people and the guards were not able to lay hands on him because they have never heard anyone speak like him. So gentle, harmless, peaceful and full of life, wisdom and comfort. I feel something like that with Eckhart. Nice.
Nowadays among the stuff being marketed as spirituality eckhart tolle is the real deal here ! People should just be wise enough to choose the right person to come to . He is an absolute treat to the humankind in these times
The ego wants insurance that your children and your children's children will have a 'good life' according to your standards and idea of security. They are here to experience their own dreams and...nightmares: accept that.
Caring for others is not ego. When you experience fear because of it instead of acting - that is ego. Change your present to provide a better future for your kids. Don't be afraid of the future and paralyzed by your fear.
@@mink33 By accepting we mean realizing that it will or may happen unless we change the course of events now. Accept that we can't go on like that. Don't accept the future outcome of our current actions.
@@onreact Children are the extension of their parents ego. Responsible parenting CARES that you have the skills to survive; at that point (the adult child) has to be free of controlling parents who want 'something to be proud of' that flatters them as successful parents. True CARING knows how to LET GO! Any thing else is control disguised as caring.
@@peggyharris3815 Sure. The ego is a survival tool though. Once you are beyond ego you don't fight for survival anymore. Teaching kids ego skills is not the way to go.
Peggy Harris Youve gone off topic.... suffering is not something we want our children, young or grown, to go thru... full stop. Accepting it doesnt change the empathy and compassion for them. Or anyone for that matter. Eckhart himself dedicating his life to alleviate suffering
"While a man is happy he may forget his God; but when grief comes and sorrows overwhelm him, then will he remember his Father who is in Heaven, and who is able to deliver him from his humiliations." ~ Abdu’l’Baha, Baha'i Faith
@@afghosting8772 That is ego. Ego can be both positive (I'm the best) and negative (I'm worthless). You "deserve" pain and suffering as long as you try to ignore it instead of acting upon it. As long as you put your hand into the fire there will be pain. Stop.
@@afghosting8772 Sounds great. Apparently you are following the right path. Always remember though that the solution is inside you. You can't find it somewhere else.
but besides that what i personally have learned is 1) you alwaus must be busy! 2) you always must be in good positive surroundings 3) dont do nothing if you can change the situation, if u can't, make the best out of it.
@@medhini000 Because we should strive not to live by our egos, a.k.a. our carnal minds. And when we do, and things don't work out - there is suffering.
Never, but superficial who think an apple is an egg will Always think suffering is only created by the ego and has no real Story. It may be easy to think People like to Play the victim but this view only helps the the real reasons to grow strong. I guess you are blind to the fact that we live in a world who makes fun of the suffering of others. Maybe it´s easier for you to think having suffering is selfcreated and there is no victim just because the reality is to hard to deal with.
I feel completely aligned with Eckhart Toole. Like the words he says are like absolutely resonating with me, as if I know them deep down. I wish to meet him in person, I hope so soon.
@@karennoble1076 Hi, glad to see you feel the same. The comment was 3 years ago and he really helped me be more conscious in so many ways, now I have moved on. Not to any guru, but just experiencing life. Definitely watching his videos was a phase as I needed to realize so many things to be able to be who I am today. Cheers to your journey 🎈
Group think on a global scale. Yes we do cause our own suffering. No one can cause us to suffer, we have to take it on, identify with it, and own it as ours. If someone calls us fat, we only suffer when we provide value to it, own it and then attack ourselves. Emotional pain cannot be inflicted on us, we choose to cause ourselves to suffer...it is a masochistic way of life.
I do think that's a very pertinent question from the Irish man. The scale of suffering is actually going to be greater than anything humanity has ever experienced before; climate change, ecological destruction and famine for tens of millions. How do we accept and live within this new world that awaits our children?
He is my hero..speaks the truth..take a look at ourselves..WE ARE CREATING OUR OWN SUFFERING. The foundation of this society has been delusional for years. Although created by unconsciousness the suffering brings us to consciousness.
I don't understand too much because i don't know english very good, but i listen the silence beyond the word and this makes me quiet and present, Thank You! 😊
From the root of greed (hate) grows a a scrawny "tree of life". On its scraggly branches are written misery, ugliness, conflict. suicides, mass shootings and war.. From the root of truth (love), grows a full "tree of life" bearing the delicious fruit of trust, compassion, understanding, joy, beauty and harmony.
I have found Sydney Banks and after listening to his videos I suddenly understand "everything" Ekchart Tolle says. While before I really didn't get him, I just loved to listen.. I would recommend Sydney Banks either way 💕 He and Eckhart would be soulmates I believe
I usually look at Eckhart and be like man he’s so lucky, free, and wise. Until this video, I think this man just carries his weight very gracefully. Our suffering ends when we go?
Feeling inadequate, sad, lonely, depressed, hopeless. Surely destined to spend the rest of my days as a sickly, anxious wreck. I really had completely the wrong idea of what it was to be an egoist.
I've read all of his books and listened to all of his talks, and still I find it hard to imagine how can he be not in the grip of fear which is the ego.
Some individuals do not learn from their suffering. They can hit rock bottom and still not get the "message." Unconscious. Those of us who are committed to consciousness, improving our lives, and making the world a better place have the upper hand and embrace our resiliency. My opinion.
Yes! Choose to wake again & again.......&yes,then we also can Share with the children,they will listen "cause we have a ray of light Kay La good rememberance
I'm about to have my first child in a few days, I am very excited to teach her (at her own accord) how to be present and accept what is. I've already seen change in my sister who was very much opposed to these types of teachings. But she has come to a point where suffering is more or less unbearable. She has however now turned more towards his teachings and started to read the Power of Now. Thanks Eckhart!
Everything is as it should be... the “good” and the “bad”...there is no point in worrying about the future because you can’t stop it from happening. All you can do is accept the present moment and let go of trying to control the future. Hopefully your children will learn this truth as well.
We currently live in the most peaceful era. Most wars are caused within people which is reflected in the 3D World. As within so without as Blake said. Thank you Eckhart 🧡
You can accept suffering by understanding that it's a signal. When you go in the wrong direction you suffer. Every single one of us destroys the planet by our very own choices - most of them being unconscious. You think you need a large SUV? You probably need to bolster your ego with it. Most probably you don't even need a car in many places. I live in a very car and meat loving society yet I have chosen not to eat animal products or drive. I also don't fly despite this country having the most frequently traveling population. Yet I don't feel limited at all. I discovered lots of tasty foods as a vegan, I can walk 10km any day, I prefer to travel by train. All of these choices reduce my carbon footprint immensely and make me much healthier.
onreact Good to hear. There seems to be a disconnect between what a person reads online, and what that same person does in the real world to reduce their footprint.
Great! Thanks a bunch for sharing these simple yet deep & profound concepts! Leo Tolstoy had it in a pretty close way in "Anna Karenina" - where the girl suffered from some external sercumstances, but even mor from her morbid outlook on those.
" I'm in the here and now And I been meditating Still I'm suffering But that's my problem Enlightenment I don't know what that is Every second Every minute Things keep changing Now it's something different Enlightenment Don't know what that is All around You can see Your living Your reality Enlightenment Don't know what that is" Van Morrison
"Ego" is a natural function of the biological human body. "Ego" is nothing than a label which subsumes certain behaviors and thought mechanisms the human animal uses to accomplish its biological imperatives. Believing that one is a separate, accountable entity is necessary to make the body work in a certain purposeful and directional way and thus secure the continuity and development of the species. While stuff like Eckhard's is really interesting in a way and while most of us know states in which our ego temporarily seems to disappear (which usually make us somehow happy), it's absolutely futile to think that it is possible or even desirable to "eliminate" or "transcend" ego. Because we are animals, and "ego" is just as much a part of our mechanism like our liver or our bones.
Pain is inevitable in life you con't avoid it. Pain leads to suffering and suffering is a choice, it's totally optional. Most of our planet loves to be miserable because it's a normal feeling for most people. I refuse to suffer because life is too short. When you have peace within there is no more suffering!
The only reason that you suffer is because you are trying to manifest every single desire at the same time, and the only reason for time is so that you can manifest every single desire one moment at a time. When you put your faith in time and start to believe that with time everything that you want will happen, with time will happen.
I"m a little confused; where is the middle ground between accepting what is and fighting when there is injustice? In acceptance am I to sit back and watch torture and starvation? Or change it by resisting? fighting? or simply by accepting what is and a shift in my consciousness WILL change the collective to a more peaceful one-
When I think about past or future, it's easy to become unhappy. But when I'm here and now, just being, then there's such happiness to be. I don't even need to seek happiness, it is effortlessly here when attention is not immersed in thought. Yet thoughts are free to come and go and there is also the freedom to not pay attention to them. I Am. No matter what thoughts say, I as formless consciousness is here always and not affected by any thought, feeling or sensation. I am not the person identity that is made up from the senses and memory. The person is a fleeting experience but I am the awareness that always is
@@nicktheavatar_ If you judge your ego like that, then it will hit you right back into your face. It all starts with the acceptance of your ego. With acceptance the freedom of choice appears.
We're all entitled to our opinions. Thanks for your input. I still feel the same. I create music, and my ego isn't what's pushing me to be Great. I create what I feel, and what I feel will be of assistance to others. 😊

I live in a very car and meat loving society yet I have chosen not to eat animal products or drive. I also don't fly despite this country having the most frequently traveling population.
Yet I don't feel limited at all. I discovered lots of tasty foods as a vegan, I can walk 10km any day, I prefer to travel by train. All of these choices reduce my carbon footprint immensely and make me much healthier.
onreact Good to hear. There seems to be a disconnect between what a person reads online, and what that same person does in the real world to reduce their footprint.
@@Caperhere Yeah, there is always a big step from knowing what's right to implementing it.
onreact I dumped my car 16 years ago and go everywhere by bike or on foot since. Now everyone else, get your act with it.

LOVE YOU AND ALL THAT SURROUNDS YOU AND NOT BEHIND YOU 🔔
Teaching your children how to use suffering to reach consciousness, I feel, is a closer approximation to what et means.

I greet Brother Eckhart . Thank You .
Great! Thanks a bunch for sharing these simple yet deep & profound concepts!
Leo Tolstoy had it in a pretty close way in "Anna Karenina" - where the girl suffered
from some external sercumstances, but even mor from her morbid outlook on those.
Suffering is also the proof of love.
" I'm in the here and now
And I been meditating
Still I'm suffering
But that's my problem
Enlightenment
I don't know what that is
Every second
Every minute
Things keep changing
Now it's something different
Enlightenment
Don't know what that is
All around
You can see
Your living
Your reality
Enlightenment
Don't know what that is"

"Ego" is a natural function of the biological human body. "Ego" is nothing than a label which subsumes certain behaviors and thought mechanisms the human animal uses to accomplish its biological imperatives. Believing that one is a separate, accountable entity is necessary to make the body work in a certain purposeful and directional way and thus secure the continuity and development of the species.
While stuff like Eckhard's is really interesting in a way and while most of us know states in which our ego temporarily seems to disappear (which usually make us somehow happy), it's absolutely futile to think that it is possible or even desirable to "eliminate" or "transcend" ego. Because we are animals, and "ego" is just as much a part of our mechanism like our liver or our bones.

Eclhart the real OG
Thank you
Pain is inevitable in life you con't avoid it. Pain leads to suffering and suffering is a choice, it's totally optional. Most of our planet loves to be miserable because it's a normal feeling for most people. I refuse to suffer because life is too short. When you have peace within there is no more suffering!
The only reason that you suffer is because you are trying to manifest every single desire at the same time, and the only reason for time is so that you can manifest every single desire one moment at a time. When you put your faith in time and start to believe that with time everything that you want will happen, with time will happen.
Thanks a lot Jiddu Krishnamurti.
Short answer...yes
Thats the Video i wanted to see thank you Eckhart
Anybody ever start thinking you have to start talking like this man?
We can't distroy anything that is real (like our own consciousness) so their is nothing to worry about.
Our suffering is imagined 💗💗💗💗💗
Not true
This is very true suffering greatly is all in the mind 🙏💕💕💕💕🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Hardship brings us closer to God.
I"m a little confused; where is the middle ground between accepting what is and fighting when there is injustice? In acceptance am I to sit back and watch torture and starvation? Or change it by resisting? fighting? or simply by accepting what is and a shift in my consciousness WILL change the collective to a more peaceful one-
Thank you.
This spoke deeply to me
When I think about past or future, it's easy to become unhappy. But when I'm here and now, just being, then there's such happiness to be. I don't even need to seek happiness, it is effortlessly here when attention is not immersed in thought. Yet thoughts are free to come and go and there is also the freedom to not pay attention to them. I Am. No matter what thoughts say, I as formless consciousness is here always and not affected by any thought, feeling or sensation. I am not the person identity that is made up from the senses and memory. The person is a fleeting experience but I am the awareness that always is
OUR, OURS, OWN, OWNS
IS WHAT IS MEANT SUFFERING IN REALITY OF SUFFERING DREAMS.
Ego is the worst. Life is far less complicated without it.💯💯
Without ego, there would not be art, music and no improvement of human life. Don't make ego your enemy, make it your friend.
It is the worst, but we can't make it the enemy or direct anger towards the ego or else we are ironically becoming separate and unconscious.
@@nicktheavatar_
If you judge your ego like that, then it will hit you right back into your face. It all starts with the acceptance of your ego. With acceptance the freedom of choice appears.
@@CarlitosMayo Yes exactly! We accept that it is a part of us until we awaken further and one day hopefully we are completely disidentified from it
We're all entitled to our opinions. Thanks for your input. I still feel the same. I create music, and my ego isn't what's pushing me to be Great. I create what I feel, and what I feel will be of assistance to others. 😊
