Eckhart Tolle is a spiritual teacher and author, born in Germany and educated at the Universities of London and Cambridge. At the age of 29 a profound inner transformation radically changed the course of his life. He devoted the next several years to understanding, integrating, and deepening that transformation. With his international bestsellers, The Power of Now and A New Earth-translated into over 52 languages-he has introduced millions to the joy and freedom of living life in the present moment. The New York Times has described him as “the most popular spiritual author in the United States”, and Watkins Review has named him “the most spiritually influential person in the world.”
Eckhart’s profound, yet simple teachings have helped countless people around the globe experience a state of vibrantly alive inner peace in their daily lives. His teachings focus on awakening consciousness, which transcends ego and discursive thinking, and can be seen as the next step in human evolution. In the awakened state of presence, we discover what Eckhart describes as our essential identity-who we are beneath the surface-and its power for transforming our selves and our world.
Having a nervous breakdown, losing the ability to think rationally and to continue in the old patterns of thinking, offered me the gift of learning to meditate and live in the present. It was the best thing that ever happened to me, changed my life forever by forcing me to seek stillness.
💛
Bev Arnold, well done Bev, I hope you have a life of peace and joy.
Allthough i have been familiar with 'stillness' for a decade, I thumbled in a anxiety and panic disorder. Aparently there was a lot of emotionial weight which i was not aware of. My intention is to get out of this as a more aware being.
Petra Sant thank you, I live very contentedly and with gratitude these days
harrie houtman it’s so worth pursuing mindfulness and having access to stillness particularly if your body goes into an anxiety mode. Knowing that you have a safe haven deep within you, a state which can’t be rocked, is so reassuring.
At times I feel really grateful for the pain and suffering I went through that lead me to such teachings.
Yes. In Buddhism it's said that suffering is the broom that can sweep away all your negative karma.

I agree, but ...

Eckhart is one of the greatest leaders I've ever seen. Not to mention how funny he is, above all his speech all revolves around and from awareness. Thank You & peace and blessings to All!
"You are more truly yourself when you don't remember your past than when you do remember your past."
This has a depth greater than you can imagine, my dear reader. Stay with this thought and be present.
Thank you 🙏
I think it's healthy to remember your past, just don't live in it, or in the mind. One lives in the present moment, and appreciate what experiences brought them to become their true authentic selves. I could understand why Eckhart doesn't want to remember a horrible childhood, and young adulthood.
Becoming immersed into my imagination did not require any effort.
As a result, I had no affection for the reality I was actually placed in. Gradually I became interested in more dramatic stories. It was almost as if I had an anxiety disorder.
It also reminded me of when I had to take the SATs. At the time, I was struck by stories about how some people would improve their scores by 500 within only a couple months and receive a perfect score. This would allow me to put my anxiety down for a while. It was later that I learned later that most of those “stories” were simply advertising materials released by private education institutions.
They knew exactly what people needed to calm their nerves.
Anyhow, nothing was intriguing for me in life. Even if I was motivated to do something at times, that did not go long and I just became tired of it. The thought that I needed to be recognized by others and had to achieve higher goals than others always distressed me.
If I met such conditions, I was happy, at least for a while. It felt nice and fulfilling as long as I could fill myself with the sense of being acknowledged by others; it was like a mere switch of a lamp - on and off it went. On the contrary, even if there was no concrete reason, I started to be impatient and obsessed if I simply felt the sense of disapproval.
Thank you for emphasizing this.
@The Boxer 93 , thank you ☮️☯️
You are more yourself when you have no past, or thoughts in your head❤ that hit hard
@Squirrel Bear he's not saying to forget about your past, but to not identify yourself with the past, just like Alan Watts said, "the wake does not drive the ship"
👌🏻❤️🙏🏻✨🎯
So true! I love the moments in which I stop thinking and I continue there! 🎆
Good
Yes please
This man deserves a Nobel prize!
I am so grateful for this man.
chillingmonkey me too !sincerely grateful
Me too! He was with me at the beginning of my awakening in this life 💕
Sadhguru is another amazing one aswell
He seems to have resonated with The Course In Miracles, and became a master of the teachings. I am still a reluctant student; so curious about society. I am, sometimes.
Cambria Wellness ahhhh you are an angel too
When i die not many people will remember me, a few relations and loved ones will. But if they die before me my identity becomes insignificant so the key thing for leaving my imprint on this planet will be my love for nature. For the last 8 years i have transformed my garden (and other surrounding areas next to me) into an oasis for bees, butterflies , birds and countless other creatures. Hopefully nature will remember my identity and God will water my oasis.
Are u okey man ? 🙏🏽
And I think it’s cool that u love nature man we are one with it. Sending you only positive energy Bless u 🙏🏽
Capricorn? Or Pisces n ps the garden sounds amazing!!! That's the best imprint and add to it that love is never ending.. the one thing you keep... so energetically your love and others for you always spans time! Stay blessed love
Bless you for creating beauty for the world to enjoy 🤗🌳🦋🐞🐦☀️💛🙏
Kee Madoo but underneath this question is the understanding that u think he/she is not. 🤷🏼 obviously. Which can be cause for frustration
There are sparkles in his eyes when he speaks, there's so much joy in there
Your own Self-Realization is the greatest service you can render the world. 💫✨👁🌎

I'm going through Derealization 😂
Listening to Eckharts messages is like coming home to safety. Feels very good. Thank you always...
discovering Eckhart is the greatest gift a person can receive ❤
As a long time fan of Eckhart's, I am struck at how great he looks at seventy-two.
As a man who is free of stress and worry, he appears twenty years younger.
It seems the fountain of youth is "stillness".
I am going through derealization and this makes me belive him more.
His teachings really help the derealization.
It’s the exact same thing with me. Listening to bits of this takes away the anxiety and doubt that comes with going through that. He has such a peace about him 🌹
A wonderful message for someone in later stages of grief.
Dear friend im fascinated by your comment. Could you expand more about grief?
I'd love to see Eckhart talk about how to detach ourselves from material possessions linked to our past
Thank you Eckhart for being a teacher and sharing profound wisdom and truth. You have saved my life
I am a spiritual being having a human experience.
Love listening to your teachings.
Thank you.
Awakening is an amazing wonderful magical experience!!! I love this path. It truly brings me tears of joy to know who I really AM. The truth is you have been born and died so many times before. Think of this life as just a small bead in a long necklace. Each life builds up to what you will experience in the next one, this is called Karma. So rejoice in the knowing that you’re an eternal being of light. Know that you have a spiritual team behind you...always follow your intuition because this is your higher self guiding you. Your higher self is in other dimensions not only in the 3D.
I am saving all your videos. I never met a more professanal and genuine doctor ever. You are a true genius
I had to pause this video at 4:35 minutes. Because it brought back a memory I had in high school. I loved to go to antique shops. I noticed a whole shelf full of black and white photographs. It hit me at that moment that these held meanings and emotions when the family was alive. But to me it told me that I would be forgotten on the living earth someday. It took me on another journey in life than most. Just that one moment.
I used to work in a nursing home , I always looked at the residents photos on the wall , it was then it hit me a lot of there family members, friends had passed and only they knew who they were , it was possibly the start of my awakening
All people are forgotten. Even history books will be forgotten if humans live long enough. Enjoy the now and no suffering. Simple and profound yet is not easy!
Eckhart is a true life saver.
nothing essential is ever lost...Thank You! very important in these times..
I'm glad I had suffered from my exssesive anxiety for 15 years. Because not without the identity and essence of being a failure, I wouldn't be drawn to the spiritual dimension. I couldn't thank him more for his generousity of wisdom.
Moment-by-moment states of awakening slowly sculpt our constellation of engrams-the neural substrates of our memories-such that they empower us rather than relegate us in each successive moment. As a Harvard neuroscientist, I'm currently developing vids that will go into the underlying neurobiology of how meditative states rewire our brains over the long term. With enough meditative presence-based iterations, you'll slowly begin consistently embodying love/empathy over fear/hate. 🧠🧘♂️💕
I really like that perspective, although I don't know much about how the brain works. Subbed to find out. Looking forward to your content.
Interesting perspective. I look forward to your content.
Hello Dr Lambert, Is ones essence ones eternal dimention?
Cant wait mate.
@@britviking5960 Hello Colin hope all is good and well with you and loved ones and sharing in the joy of our existence 🙏💪. Pease be with you.
I have watched this many times, but now I have HEARD it for the first time! Like really! I know who I am
This feels like a peak summery of his teaching. Brilliance in clearness and simplicity.
@Chris C You seem upset. Why?
Eckhart lives in the present moment and speaks the truth. What he is doing is helping people wake up to their own divinity. 🌎
Perhaps you should attempt to practice stillness once in a while, you may learn something. 🙏
Love and Light 💚
my birthday last year, " I shall get myself a nice present "
this year, .... " I have my presence " 😊

Indeed.
Deeper than water, connect with its silent Source.
@@misternought5028uuu
Thank you Eckhart 🙏
Namaste 🙏🏽 I know how too detach myself from my ego - the more I meditate & focus I can control my thoughts.. when I slip & the ego slides in I acknowledge that I know it’s my ego & I shift my thoughts & focus on something good or I observe my surroundings & stillness, silence my mind & the ego/thoughts disappear.. everyday it’s becoming easier “feeling happy in the now - no worrying about anything - it’s growing my consciousness it’s rising” 🙏🏽 thank you Eckhart Tolle & all my teachers 🖤
You speak from my soul
awesome to hear man! once you start getting the groove of things its like oh yeah theres those silly thoughts just observe it do your thing and it slowly dissipates. wish i knew about these teachings earlier in my life!
Patty D
He speaks that the brain is the ego. If you don’t have control over your brain (thoughts), then the ego controls you. The other way around, you control the ego.
better stop fighting against ur ego then
@@Pibscu there is no ego
Imagine a world where everyone is like this guy....
so powerful. so beautiful. I hope his message reaches every soul who is ready to live it.
What a profoundly important talk and in-sight. How I wish all of humanity could truly hear this. What a world we could be living in...
@José Menendéz okay, thanks for sharing your learned perspective José. For me personally what you are pointing out doesn't have a ring of truth or of true wisdom to it, and it doesn't correspond with the depth of my experience, but thank you anyway, I appreciate your deep concern and can sense the strong urge that made you reply to my comment and have your voice heard.. thank you for sharing your input!
Our freedom is beyond our form. Thank you for sharing your wisdom!
Thank you Swamy 🙏💐
Yes, it is possible for us to live longer and look and feel younger than we really are based on our actual time on this planet.
Eckhart Tolle, you are really amazing! Better than many psychotherapists and many psychiatrists you are explaining the roots of nearly all suffering!
For me you are a hero! Thanks a lot for sharing and explaining your wisdom and insight with us!
Remember: SF = Suffering - Formi dentity (alternative Science Fiction) and BE = Being - Essence - Identity!!
Please Dear God .. I know we all must go one day, but please prolong this man’s years so that he may continue to bless the world .. and so my kids can meet him at an age where they actually understand his significance.
👊👊
@@samale44 I don’t think these videos are that powerful at all actually, but they have led me to his book The power of now which changed my perspective and I’m sure many others.
Love listenimg to his deep profound messages. And his sense pf humour is fabulous. Thank-you
His voice is so soothing and I often listen to his books when I’m going to bed. Often brings up so much emotion but I always feel so at peace afterwards. I appreciate him so much ❤️
It's never the situation only my thoughts surrounding the situation. To be able to shut down thought, and only use the mind when needed, is a Superpower.
Dear stranger reading this,
remember that you're exactly where you need to be right now❤️
Sadly, I think you're wrong.
Thank you for the reminder. I guess if I wasn't supposed to go through what I've been through, it wouldn't have happened, and I wouldn't be RIGHT HERE writing this response. Right? Again, thank you 🕉️🙇🙏
You’re the kinda guy that puts the window down at a stop light and says “jesus loves you” to the stranger next to you
Because He does, eternally, forever and always 🤗
🥰
Thank you.
The bubble is bursting.
Soon we'll be in the Golden Age.
The Great Awakening has just begun 👁
Stay on your path, don't falter. You are the Universe.
Let the guiding power of intuition guide you all. Peace, abundance, and awareness to all :)
I dont think its in our lifetime
@@afshinseraj2000 Don't think, feel.
I totally believe this as well! I personally seen the signs of this. Thanks
We are getting to the Golden age & it feels like a magical journey of awakening.
If you like these latest videos, don't miss out on Tolle's Omega sessions from back in 2001. Excellent eight part series!!
gonna check them out!
is this from that?
Where they at?
Where can we find them
You can find them here on TH-cam
Who am I?
I am like you.
I am that, which is, was and always will be, "me".
Ask me who I was and I can tell you.
Ask me who I want to be and I'll say I want to be the best me I can be.
But ask me who I am right now, this moment, for that's where my true answer is found.
In this moment, I am aware of an experience of what I call "me".
Like me, I bet your mind sometimes wanders; acts unconsciously, judges, categorises, visualises - giving everything form and a narrative.
Sometimes I don't feel quite myself. But who am I then, you may ask?
I tried to grasp at who I am. Who I want to be. Who I am meant to be.
It was like taking a handful of fine, sun-baked sand and gripping it tightly.
The sand inevitably slipped quickly through my hands and back down toward the ground.
The harder I grasped at it, the faster it ran through my fingers and out of my hand.
It wasn't until I loosened my grip; let the sand rest in my hand, with stillness and acceptance that it would soon leave, that a few grains would sometimes linger in my palm a while longer, before gently passing back to the ground.
In that way I found myself. The "I" in who I am.
The peaceful, formless awareness of experience. Anything else is just a story.
♥️
Thanks so much. We needed your explanation.
Thank you very much Tim.
How true. Thank you. Be still. Peace.
Beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Life is not about things. It's about getting inside of oneself and this feeling of being alive and happy. When you look around, you sense bliss everywhere and see Joy of Being of the Universe. All is holy and alive and you are as well. You are not separate from Life and Consciousness. You are THAT. Nothing is required from you. Just be rooted in Yourself, in Life itself.
🌊💞
❤️❤️
Life is happening within each of us. Not outside of us.
Ending video with water fall was great, No form, just flowing.
"You are more truly yourself when you don't remember your past than when you do remember your past. And you are more truly yourself when there's not a single thought in your head than when you are full of thinking, thinking about 'me' and 'my problems'." 7:40
Most powerful spiritual teacher ,am always enlightened by his work
I love his humor.
me too! a bit sarcastic but in suhc a kind way!
Great Awakening, Gratitude
Thank you for being here and channeling such pure wisdom 💗💖💓
Very intuitive. The analogies are so easy to understand too
This teacher changed my life, I don't know where would I be without his wisdom and the way that he explains very abstract concepts.
Yes:)
Eckhard looks so young, get younger and younger , quite amazing. I love, love this man.🙏🏼☀️🌸
whatever arises from the timeless stillness will have the timeless element of Peace, compassion, oneness, harmony.
oneness timeless stillness will have justice to give the hidden horrible merciless psychopaths for their doings to humanity-babies- children-Knowing! = Justice! = Unity! WWG1 WGA!
Thank You Ekhart ❤️
Also a gifted comedian! Thank you! Enjoyed this VERY much! 💜💚💕🤗
this sociopath would do well as a stand up comic as he makes for a good laugh
You will definitely always be remembered along with your amazing teachings! 🙏🙏
The truth of the teaching shines through this beautiful form. Thank you.
I am ramesh from india in tamil naadu at tirupur i thank to your speech and you
I love 💘 Eckhart Tolle ! Peace resonates from him from the inside and out ❤
He looks like a little boy to me so the fact that he is older than 50 is incredible. The power of presence.
Thank you for not only waking up, but sharing the light with the world to help others do the same. Much love, brother.
Dziękuję bardzo ♥️🌷 Teresa Kiereś
Yes, thank you, thank you and thank you for I AM so very blessed and grateful. Your teachings are magical and timeless, thank you Eckhart Tolle, for it is an honor to be in your presence and being one with you, thank you. I am no longer identifying with form, and every once and a while over the last week, I have seen parts of me disappear, thank you for that and your wisdom. I AM at Peace and I NOW live truly in the moment, without fear, judgement or even the disillusionment at the forefront. I live where beauty, contentment, joy, inner peace, knowing, connecting with Source, wisdom and enlightenment are always at the forefront as well, for the better of ALL and for the better of my higher self. As I let go of all past stories, as I can feel them leaving this realm, faster and faster each moment, I AM free. As I honor my ego, my innocent little me, that has been testing time throughout this life time and all others, I now ask it to step aside, knowing that It did what it was supposed to and now it is free, I thank you and now I ask you to go back home, where you can love freely and safely in heaven. I AM supported fully and completely by a higher source, my higher source and you are free to go, as I am Free as well. I no longer Identify with form, I no longer remember and past moments, my old stories. I only remember the things I need to know in any given moment. So much love and may you and all others be blessed with Truth, remembering and most of all the unconditional love that we all have within us to move directly into awareness now. So much love and so it is, Namaste
What a beautiful post, namaste 🙏
Thank you, Eckhart. I sometimes wonder how many lives you have changed?
It must be close to messianic.
I love you, dear brother...
Love the way he giggles🤩🤩
It says a lot🤣... God bless him!
Seeking stillness, allowing stillness, being.
I find that the people most in need of finding the stillness are least able to grasp it.
Thank you very much❤️❤️❤️
It’s getting easier and feeling more natural to act from the NOW, my Essence and feeling free of problems or self criticism. You helped me meditate without fear of critical thinking, which was exhausting. I have more energy NOW. Thank you.
Thank you for your presence 🙏
I love his humerous way in which he explains the most profound wisdom ...
The events of my life have slowly brought me back to this teachings
oh, eckhart! you had me having the cosmic chuckle a lot by the end. i love how gleeful you are these daze. sending essential love and gratitude.
So appreciate this guy and his teachings
Thank you, Eckhart for the brilliant explanation ❤️! So profound and yet accessible. It brought me to tears ❤️
I was reading the power of now by Eckhart a few moments ago and this video came up. Love the timing.
Thank you Eckhart sir for sharing your precious knowledge 🙏🏼
Iam greatful for hearing that🙏 I felt energy flowing in my being and just was able to be present with him while he talks🙏
@ Rozhan R
Thank you
Eckart is ageless.
Everything Eckart says is the truth.
I like to know what to do after awakening when the embodiment process is started, my first awakening was 5 years ago and 2 years ago it goes what i call full force in every part of my body where i have released a lot physical pain, emotional en psychological parts with many different experiences, and really the only thing i can do is trying fully let go and go into all these parts. I think for the most people the journey begins after there first awakening when really the process is starting that ends the world you know of about yourself, personality, identity, beliefs it's scary and everything is adventure into the unknown and you can't hold on to things you know before. I hope a lot more teachers are beginning to speak more about that i am not the only one who been having these kind of problems.
He looks so lively - that is a nice sweater.
Amazing human being
Amazing 'Being'.
So good listening to eckhart ,imagine how the world would be if we were enlightened and being human! No virus , no bull shit , wars , murders, hate, fear, list goes on . . . Bless him and everyone on spiritual path X
Was just watching an Eckhart video. Timing was destined and a string I followed.
Love you Eckart. No wonder Wayne Dyer had great respect for you and did a one hr video talking with you.😊
We have about 50 thoughts in our head per minute, let's bring that down 10 or 15 to start. It will help to become This. It's that simple.
Yes step by step, especially for the younger ones among us (like me). You can't force awakening, you can simply practice presence and let yourself sink deeper and deeper into it :)
How to watch thinker ...while interacting with people I face problem to watch thinker in background and I become unconscious and gets anxious
I feel good and can't quit smiling when I listen to Mr E.🙂❤
In the end it's so simple... Stillness... And feeling the essence...
It's so simple, you don't even have to think about it
Foundation of all doing is conscious being.
Manifesting should be based on being, the formless, stillness, timelessness.
Thanks Eckhart. 25 July 2022.
I love the idea of imagining consciousness like a little tentacle
Life's much better since I've learned how to BE :)) Also thanks to Eckhart!
Thank you ❤️
Can we appreciate that this man is 72......
Now yes but this video is old
Wow, I had no idea. Judgment: now I feal young !
Search for - Sadhguru
3 minutes in he says he is ‘a lot older than 50’. Definitely not aging at the normal rate imo. Interesting...
He looks like a little kid.
He has SOOOOOOOOOOO much energy today. Younger too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My mother has developed dementia. She has very little recollection of her past but she's still very much herself. The best part is her sense of humor.
Aww I hope all goes well
That is a small silver lining to the disease. My mother reverted to her teenage years, so fun and lighthearted - RIP. Best wishes to your and your family.
This is the best explanation of the ego I have found yet! ☺️😁
