To be honest I don't stress about anything. I am 72 and have no fear of getting older. No fear of dying. I live on my own and have no fear of dying on my own. I don't want to live forever. I don't want to live beyond not being able to look after myself or enjoying life. What's would be the point ? We all need a rest from life and death is the best rest you can have, before we start all over again. I don't wish for death. I just accept it as part of the circle of our existence.
You inspire me truly. I’m 17 and can’t get my mind off the fear.
I am scared of getting old cos i know i will be alone. No family.
You are a blessing. Thank You !!
Blessings 🙏
I have been dirt poor, lived on the street, suffered severe depression, lost two wives to cancer, and yet I am optimistic.
I am 72, live on my own overseas away from my family, life is a journey..and most of the time, it is up to you, how that journey goes. No one knows what is over the next hill, but worry about what might be. They worry about things that may never happen, and usually they don't.
Life is an adventure and like all adventures, never go as one plans. There are ups and downs along the way. Its how you deal with those ups and downs, that decide how your life goes. You know the old saying..I will cross that bridge when I get to it ? That is the way to think. You can't plan for the unexpected..and life is full of those. Moment by moment, is what life is, not a day, week, month or year from now. Only now is real. The rest is an illusion.
Yes, I agree with that. I only started fearing and worrying about aging and death after retiring in 2020 at age 62. As you say, the fear and worry will accomplish nothing. The fear and worry only makes everything worse. So, I'm really meditating about acceptance of aging and death. I can't control the unexpected. Best wishes to you.
I definitely agree with you never know what's over the next hill. I moved overseas when I was 54
"but worry about what might be. They worry about things that may never happen," literally me, I just can't stop thinking about life possibly getting worse in my older years
I’m nearly 62, just a small woman with grey hair. I didn’t want to stack the half ton of logs into the woodshed, outside in the cold, so I just went ahead and did the job anyway. It was easy, even therapeutic, no aches in particular. When the day comes that I can’t stack the logs, that will be another story.
Thank u so much 4yr message♡ .I really needed it 2day.:)
Just keep it up.
Keep moving, and we CAN keep moving!
Thank you for sharing this. When we are young we are always planning for the time of old and not being able to work and earn an income. So we start saving(actually I agree with this) and do all kinds of investments to create that sense of security. But nothing can insure us 100% except 100% trust of life.

"If you didn't feel afraid of you - you would have no fears of anything." - Vernon Howard 🌻
Wow! That really rings true.
Thank you! 💓
If my mind suggests the possibility of terrible things happening in the future, my go to response is "I've no idea" and equally if my mind suggests fantastic things happening in the future, my go to response is "I've no idea"., because it's the truth. I don't have any idea about what will or won't happen in the future, and thankfully neither has my mind 👍 it just pretends to know the unknowable. The future hasn't happened yet and my mind has absolutely no more knowledge of it than I do, and nether does anyone else or their minds either 👍👍👍
My motto is!
Accept what is
Trust what will be
And be very grateful for everything
This is the best way I know to have a happy peaceful relationship with my mind, because the simple act of trusting removes all the need to think about anything too much.
That's great and true- Thank you😍
That’s true thank you 🙌
Huh
May all Sentient beings be free from all suffering. Namaste🙏
We have to know darkness in order to see the difference in the Light.
It is very clear how intentional he is with his words. Every time i watch one of these hes not afraid to take his time and choose the correct words to convey his meaning.
Yes! You can see the answer comes from beyond him. His pauses and stillness allow for the answer to come through him.
I have something to learn from him. He is so calm, and he doesnt hesitate to make nescesary pauses, to say whats coming from his heart, instead of letting the mind fasttalking, like most of us do.
...deeply, out of the Tao, into the now, and later as well🤯
@@kerrieq9907 Wow, I commented about the same vision...of his words coming out of Heaven.
@@patriciastewart2537 That's beautiful!...I like how you described it
My problem isn't fear of age (I'm 70). The problem is I'm getting bolder. The older I get the less I give an excrement about more and more things. And my sense of humor is growing exponentially. Taking fewer and fewer things seriously.
Why is that problem?
@@kolarz2128 Good point. I should view it as a solution.
@@bearchow1929 ha ha 😆
Old age, sickness, and death... the three types of "divine messengers" the Buddha described
There are only two emotions... love and fear. We are only given the Spirit of love. Fear is only of the human condition.
Two emotions?
Really....jealousy ,anger......?
@@kripaharris237 jealousy comes out of fear for your happiness. Anger is reaction of someone scared, is it not?
I’m very fearful of being old, and death. This video really tells me how to reflect it.
0:29: It is a good sign already, that this person becomes conscious about that fears. It is a first step out of them. That shows also, he / she is ready to wake up.
Coming June I will be 57.
And I have never been happier.
Never felt more beautiful then now.
Living by myself since 12 years.
Loving myself and my mission.
I am also a medium and I see spirits and am able to talk to them.
I can’t wait to go back.
Have trust people.
Life is just a illusionary matrix.
57 isn’t old any more so no wonder you are happy & rightly so
How did u manage to do it all alone?
Yup...
I have been studying with a teacher of Immortality since 2012.
Health challenges made me reassess my goal.
And then, I overcame the disabilities, and reset my sights on STAYING!
I'm 75
One must acknowledge that presence is a day by day, moment by moment practice, with endless opportunity for failure, which in turn, presents a doorway to forgiveness;
repeat☀️
Enjoying the aging process is like enjoying the moment. It's a story and when you observe it, there is a kind of beauty within symbolizes something deeper.
Thanks eckhart,

OMG, he's describing how I have felt, as far back as I can remember! I've always wondered what made me this way. I wake up every morning with such dreadful anxiety over losing the people that I love the most.
How do u cope with it?
Life is haphazard and totally unpredictable. You just have to make the most of every day and don’t take anything or anyone for granted.
Beautiful :)
Truth.
My wife, whose been meditating for 40+ years tells me your thoughts are not you. If you watch them and not ruminate over them, they are harmless. I've been practicing that for several months and notice changes by degrees. Still have a long way to go.
It's a work in progress for us all,, your doing great 👍
How's it going 10 months later?
My ideas are fresh, helpful, and grounded in reality
I never gave getting old much thought until now, that I am old. I just worked for decades to support myself, had a lot of energy and people always said I looked younger than my age. Now I'm 73 and retired, ready to have adventures. I'm fairly healthy but after these past 2 yrs of pandemic I am struggling from inactivity, as are many people. These are not ordinary times. I stress that now I want a lovelife, my choices are few and far between. I love an overseas man 23 years younger and fret about lines, spots, etc. The future will tell. Meditation helps. Thank you.
@@user-wy2tw8mv1f I'm suspicious you're a scammer and I'm going to report you. If you're really are Mr. Tolle he will clear it up. BYE!
Any kids? I am frankly afraid of getting old. No family.
From 60 to 70 for me was like “2 years!”
YOU DONT STOP DANCING BECAUSE YOU ARE OLD....YOU ARE OLD BECAUSE YOU STOPPED DANCING....."GET YOUR DANCE ON..."
Wunderschön! Danke!💃
💃💃☘️👍🇮🇪
Even if this dancing is performed within your mind. Never stop dancing. There are no biological obstacles in your mind, if you choose.
Uh you're old because you look old
I love this.
I think most people have a fear of disease in their old age, more than growing old itself. I've heard everyone say, we just don't want to be invalids or dependant on others.
Yes, that's what I hear too, and sometimes feel myself. This man is helping me to stop the suffering and be in the present. 😊✌️
@@StephanieJeanne
As I get older, that's my fear too. I don't really fear death, only pain and suffering.
@@tiffsaver May we all find a way to ease our fears.😊✌️
@@StephanieJeanne
NDEs have been mine. I've never really believed in an "afterlife," but after watching hundreds of these accounts on You Tube and elsewhere, I'm starting to believe.
I think that fear and worry is particularly prevalent in the United States because we have so few safety nets and we don't take care of each other like we should. I don't know what to do about that and how not to worry or be sad about that, which I occasionally do.
Suddenly The last few seconds showing the waterfall , it's like for practicing to be on this percent movement with a nice looking waterfall and sounds
Wow, wonderful message, that we can resonate with. Feel the fear in every Moment and notice that it will also disappear
Can u go crazy if u feel it in every moment.
I think he's saying the exact opposite; i.e. don't attach fear to your thinking, otherwise it will build and overwhelm you.
@@mitch5222 Hey, do you feel like that all the time? Or it was just a phase? Or you do not even feel like that. 😄
Since witnessing the painful aging process my parents went through before their death a few years ago, I have been worried about my own future. My parents had my brothers and me to help them. I do not have children and wonder how I am going to navigate those late years.
I'm in the same boat. I don't have children, but even if I did I wouldn't want to be a burden on them. Maybe we die right before we can't take care of ourselves 😂😉
Why worry about the future, today has enough worries of it’s own. 🤔😂
You might not reach such age either, especially if you're worrying much...
I'm in a similar situation. I see my parents age..just this month we had 2 deaths in the family. I too am not married . But yes I somehow trust that life will give me whatever I need at that time in future .
I think the best outcome is to take care of one's health. Be as fit as possible until the end comes. In other words, pay attention to what the body requires in order to sustain optimum health.
Eckhart, you look tired. Thankyou for sharing your insights with us.
Ahh what a lovely message brought tears to my eyes. We are all united🙏♥️
Have the coffin and grave paid for. It's good to have that out of the way. It is a beautiful day, holding on to that, a person here planned to go to colledge in this country but the application was unfinished and didn't go through, even though the person only wants to go to colledge in America. it's causing alot of angst, past and future for the person. Keeping focused here now, listening and sometimes moving outside for air and sunshine. It is a beautiful day.
Thank you for this🙏
So what do you think happens to people who can't afford coffins? They still keel over and the body is taken care of. Why waste money on that?
“It is precisely through the onset of old age, through loss or personal tragedy, that the spiritual dimension would traditionally come into people's lives.” - *🙏🏽ECKHART TOLLE , 💜 Your WISDOM TH-camr🌸☀️*
Must suffer, must suffer, must suffer. Ain't it great.
Does anybody know where this quote can be found? I'd be most grateful.
I don't have a fear of growing old but I do have a fear of growing old and not being able to take care of myself due to disease of the body. As much as I'm enjoying life I believe in assisted dying for those in pain and suffering. After all If the spirit is strong and consciousness is established we should be able to get rid of the body /the outer coat in peace and harmony. I would love to hear Eckhart's views on this topic.
Merci beaucoup Eckhart
Thank you Eckhart.
Just what I needed.
💜🕉💜
Thank you Eckhart 🙏🤍🤍
Thank You for helping me understand Eckhart this is just what I need 🙏💕
Thank you for your clear explanation 🌸
I feel younger after seeing you, thanks Eckhart xD in all seriousness you look and sound as healthy as ever. I love listening to you speak and Alan Watts, I think you both share a similar deep love and appreciation for the universe.
Thank you for your teaching 🙏💌
Thanks to you, I can now recognize those though patterns. Thank you

Me too, I needed to hear it too, so afraid sometimes,especially now, just lost my soulmate,boyfriend,and I am alone, no family ' support group, and one friend, he did help me.
We really are never alone, we just think we are. Facing different situations in life is difficult, when we go through them and come out the other side we are stronger for them. Don’t isolate yourself @ this time, you can do this gorgeous girl. 👏❤️👍

Thank you for your support , I will keep trying.
Thank you🌸❤
Reminds me of the "The Small Book of Big Nerves" - the author of the book addresses a bit more the physiological aspect of this reaction and how to break this cycle.
Great video, thank you!
I'm fascinated by how much he blinks. As he is imagining the reality in the responses... his imagination is so active that he blinks like mad. I'm fascinated by it.
The aging process of a body is natural and is happening jjn this moment, however we are still anxiously denied. Aging is happening everywhere in everything if we look around.
But what to do if u are afraid of? What's the point of getting old?
🌈Thank you very much, for this Video. I send you a smile.😀🧚🏾
This is very helpful thank you 🙏
You are the one who is about to bring wealth into your family.

Thank you!
In the final analysis I earned this, and I breathe.
Thanks!
The future is factually nothing but a thought in your mind. And the goal of the mind is stillness - thank you Eckhart
The secret is to make your life count now. Old age becomes a happy time when you know you did a good job in your life and made a difference when you were younger. Also lose the fear of dying. you are an immortal spirit in a very temporary human body as the practice of mediumship proves the continuity of life and the intelligence of those who no longer have bodies. do these 2 things and you'll have a wonderful old age...I'm 63 now and looking forward to those years as I know my life is counting. Namaste
But you will still feel afraid when transitioning. How can life be wonderful? I dont see anything special about it? We have to deal with so many scary things. Old , death, health problems, etc... Any advice? Thanks
@@mitch5222 - Yes, all those negative things you mentioned are true. But let's flip the script to another side that's also true by using your own words, except on the other side of the same coin. "I do see many things special about life. We get to experience many comforting things such as a roof over our head and food on the table, plus I get to go outside and enjoy a nice walk among beautiful trees, flowers, sun and clouds. I even get to enjoy this technology with which I can reach out to others around the world and learn and grow. I'm still here and breathing life giving oxygen into my lungs with which I'm thankful for. I experienced many moments of kindness, wonderful music, and entertainment in my life.
And when this life in physical form fades away on me, I will continue my journey in a more limitless way than ever before, but while I'm here I shall make the most of this earthly experience and be a light to others"...........Mitch, I don't pretend to know what you're going through in life but do your best to make the most of whatever you have. The negative will eventually affect us all, and I know life is not fair, so we can only do our best from where we are. Sending peace your way.......
@@IKARIANOFFICIAL thanks for the help. I have huge fear of getting old, the dying process and beeing alone for the res of my life. I am just mad that some ppl dont fear that as well. And because of that i am ashamed of myself, cos some ppl went through wars and didnt do so much panic than me. I hate myself. I always thought the life is a game and we are here to suffer (wars, illness, etc.) I know there is kidness in the world and that are some ppl helping.
@@mitch5222 - Yes, we can't deny the darkness and bad things we see and experience here. And we all will die. But while we're alive here, it's our time to make the most and the best of it we can. The goal isn't to try and be positive all the time while in denial of the wrong things in the world however. Just start with adding in maybe just 5 minutes per day where you make it a point to think and dwell on the many good things you've had in life. Watch something on youtube that will make you smile for a few minutes each day. etc.....
And when the negative thoughts come in, which they will, just try to pay attention to it without getting pulled into identifying with those thoughts, almost as if those thoughts are separate from you and you are simply observing them. This way they lose power over you.
Then gradually try to shift away from those things that bring you down. Key is don't get frustrated, it's like learning to ride a bike, you can't quit just because you fall a few times.
There will always be negative things going on though, and we will all get pulled into them too much at times. It's being human. For now just focus on bringing some balance between the light and dark in.
@@IKARIANOFFICIAL thanks
Simply because we drift away from now and conscicously live elsewhere like future or past. So best thing is to come back to now. Again from Eckhart Tolle.
I recognized Tami’s voice immediately 😊. I love Sounds True!
Loved this explanation
Watched the movie After Earth. Will Smith tells his son “Danger is real. Fear is a choice!” Hopefully, Echart’s new earth will happen sooner then later…..
I just clicked on this video out of curiosity. I don't know why one would fear getting old; this is definitely a Western thought process.
I think about the future with the hope of discovering how to be prepared to solve the problems that could come. Thinking about strategies to better react and act and not suffer more for being unprepared- I am not sure of this is creating unhapiness o srecurity and calm ,because I know I have taken precautions in order to not be in the worst situation just as victim of circumstances because caught by surprise when on the other way I had the potencial of doing somenthing to avoid that.
Truth be told...
Another wonderful teaching. I feel a little sorry though for Eckhart sitting down there in a corner at the bottom of the stairs … Perhaps another place would have been a little more comfortable.

Look At Fear And
Make Fear, Fear !
Fear Is Not Evil
It Tells You What
Your Weakness Is
Feeling fortunate to have lived long enough to see my body decay. LOL
I have generalized anxiety disorder along with severe depression and I can't seem to stop worrying about it.
I want to be an old growth tree. I want to weather storms and continue to grow. I want cracks in my bark and moss on my limbs. I hope the saplings around me aspire to live fully so they too may see world from such heights.
Beautiful
and one day the Landlord chops you down, the heart saddened, no longer seeing that pervasive aliveness, time passes, invisible as you'v become yet appear again in a form that is left as a tractor load of blocks, a gift from the Landlord for the hearth of my fire to give warmth comfort and still there lay you in the shed unseasoned waiting
@@Omnipresence101 events have no meaning. Perspective of sadness with the action of being chopped down is unique to you. Adversity is necessary for growth but you can also let it consume you. Energetic transformation into new is not something to fear - indeed, it is merely just another step in the Universe's plan for a soul's development. Death carries a scythe not only to slough the old but also to sow the new.
@@namehere4954 Yes feel the Truth of that. Thank you ❤ The tree a sacred presence of that felt beyond the physical eyes, that is still here.🙏
A lovely thought.
I am 67. My fear is not of what can happen. It is of what IS happening. I am so surprised that I feel less energy, less physical strength, less motivation. On the other hand, I feel more confident and more accomplished and more grateful than I ever had before.
Age is a state of mind
Tell that to my missing teeth. Although, spiritually I agree.
Until one looks into the mirror
@@kingmichaelthelastwarrior Appearance is part of the ego.
Age is real, it can be ruthless (ask a senior citizen who has to depend on a caregiver for all basic personal needs such as toilet).
@@zaringonda6068 that’s true…my dad always believed in the power of the mind to keep him young, now at 83, his health and mind are failing.
❤ thank you Eckhart and the older to teach us willing to learn this helps to hear other's so we dont feel alone and it gives me strength, and some of these comments make laugh❤
Спасибо
Yes but how do we deal with aging, illness, death when it IS in the present? I wish you would address this…
Hi Uncle Eckhart, Robert Lazar, Adam Apollo Amorastreya, Andrew Clifford Weston, and Adam Phillip Thomas Hartley give me a lot of headaches and so does Nassim Haramein.
Just accept that it is the process of the form dissolving. Just the form.
Please Eckhart tell us something about distance.
Hi Ekhart, how to cope with feeling guilty for enjoying the present moment, while others are suffering right now?
Get to know Fear! Fear is your friend. The most loyal friend you'll ever have.

Why aren't we afraid of being born and continuing to grow, live? That's what makes getting old and dying happen, after all. This body is only a congregation of conditions, its seeds of decay as essential as those of growth. How can we even breathe in without breathing out? How do new things and people appear without old ones disappearing? Imagine a planet where everything remained static and nothing left!
We've already jumped into the deep end of the pool. It doesn't really make sense to thrash about in panic. Just swim as best you can and don't fight when it's time to take the last breath. The whole experience is far more enjoyable that way.
Remember the old Ch'an master who said "500 years as a fox is a life of grace"? Whatever the waves, the ups and downs, it is all supremely precious.
Why we are here? I never wanted to be here and taking that ride. Why is this experience so enjoyable?
@@mitch5222 A learning experience.
@@440SPN its alone and scary. Isnt it?
Whatever fear invents, I swear it makes no sense. That’s my explanation and…
Thanks to Eckhart explanation here
No future, only a thought, when future arrives, it's the present moment. I have faith that it will be reality, life, reality, the body won't know the difference, it will reach with emotion, no observing consciousness, thought, emotion... Problem is present moment, aware of my thoughts, that create suffering make me unhappy, not the here and now, real, they create unhappiness, suffering
🙏🏻✨,
Can you believe that he’s 75?! He looks so young for his age.
Yeah he does. But he has access to finest health care, nutrition and mental knowledge and practices
When human body ends, no more human experience or fear…feeling fear is natural as we are alive..perhaps celebrate how alive we are even through the fears, because when the party ends, even fears will be missed since the only thing left to feel is love, I’m sure that’ll get old too, imagine feeling love all the time without the body, wouldn’t you miss some humans experience even if they come with the price of fears?
It’s not all that bad once we embrace their existence, fears just want to be recognized or respected as built in self protective mechanism to survive…
I'm fearful about growing very old because I've seen many time how people's quality of life deteriorates into misery as they grow too old to do the things they once loved...I've seen how time takes it's toll on everything and forgives no one...I've seen the slow decay of time that steals away the joy and purpose we feel as young and able people and it's sad and depressing any way you look at it...there's alot to be said for dying young - for being spared the tragedy of old age.
How do u manage it?
My uncle used to have a restaurant and he had a Sign that said "free lunch tomorrow" customers would come in the next day and said I would like the free lunch and my uncle said come back tomorrow the customer would say I was here yesterday so I came today for the free lunch and he said that's right it is today not tomorrow so the free lunch tomorrow never happens 😁 plus we all know there's nothing free in life so it was like a double Zinger
Nothing to fear but fear itself....
I am 65, and widowed at 39 , never remarried. I was never afraid, I am prepared, but not with the latest developments, not sure anymore!

I want to ask a question, if we will always try to live in present than there is no room for improvement, I mean mistakes that you have done in your past, we can't fix them or fix our selfs without looking back to them and feeling guilty.
I am little confused about that, any answer is appreciated
Being sentenced to a care home where you will not come back out of, I have visited people there and I see those people just sitting in corners or staring at a tv screen. Not really able to live a happy life.
We are old when we are dead. Not earlier
