- I just want to let anyone who’s reading this comment to know; Awakening is not changing who you are, but discarding who you are not ✨

[@kryptickorner]

I dont understand the clapping...we should not be pedestalizing or idolizing what he is or is saying. He didnt perform an act or a song, he's just talking about what he knows based on his experience. We should be grateful he is here to help awaken the world, but clapping for everything he says like hes a politician with interesting ideas is weird. hes speaking the deepest truths of reality. Also, I'm pretty sure Charles Manson had an awakening in prison. he talked about his changes and meditation and such.

Its very simple: there is no free will what so ever. All this levels mambo jumbo is absolutely unnecessary

[@roybecker492]

That was the longest "No." I've ever heard.

Nothing really matters once you realize that you’re Consciousness trapped in a shell made out of particles traveling through the vastness of the Universe. It’s just a ride so just 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉chill.

"There is a destiny for human beings. Human beings are meant to move out of the unconsciousness state, and if they are not moving out of the consciousness state, they create suffering, and they will have to suffer the consequences of their unconsciousness, which eventually awakens them." Thank you Eckhart.

This gives me a lot of anxiety, i do not know why. Why is everyone so positive in the comments? Dont you guys get anxiety from this?

[@brendapalad7438]

I do not think we have 100% free will.

[@stayhappylittlemermaid]

Be the kind of person you want to meet.

[@djdoolittle1315]

We are free. If only we knew it

[@slowwco]

Eckhart Tolle's take on free will is spot on:

[@scottyg5403]

There are those people who were put here to make us better people and to deliver that message! Eckhart is one of those people! Thank you

A mind carrying old emotions

[@johngreen4683]

We are all free to think in an attempt to come up with AN answer to explain what is in reality unknowable to everyone, or we are free to accept what is truly unknowable to us all equally and simply get on with and enjoy this wonderful experience with a heart full of trust rather than a head full of unanswerable questions. Every time we convince ourselves that our or anyone elses opinions, ideas and beliefs about the unknown are facts, we have swapped peaceful acceptance for an egotistical need to fill in the gaps with AN answer rather than the be comfortable with not knowing at all. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

That infinity sign and the bell to ting in the intro gets me every time. Thank you 👍🏻❤️

[@fernandocardenas2264]

Thank you Eckart, your words always resonate in the deepest part of me. 🙏🏻

[@ilmariforsnas]

A lovely talk. "Freedom is a state of no-choice", claims the Source which has been giving Marshall Vian Summers an enormous body of teachings, and the quote has stayed with me ever since I encountered it.

This brings tears Thanks Eckheart. My brothers served time in prison for stealing to get drugs. They both passed on, the younger one that I didn't visit cause was mad with him for stealing a cheque from my neighbours post. I didn't know, I didn't understand addiction, he was not a bad person but was unwell. The next time I saw him waa in a coffin, he was 26. It's beautiful that your going to visit the prisons. My brothers were beautiful, but had a lot of pain in their early lives more than I'll ever know. God bless the work🙏

[@kathrynphillips3710]

Godbless you dear Eckhart for your humble service to humanity much Love Light & abundant health to you 💗🙏💗
