It genuinely feels like these videos always come at the right time for me. The universe is too kind
Socrates neither chose left or right. He chosed life! L'chaim!😅
I hear you! It's amazing how things often seem to fall into place just when we need them most. Perhaps the universe is guiding us in ways we don't fully understand.
Knowing and truly accepting what neither you or anyone else can possibly know at this moment in time is probably the greatest wisdom there is available to any of us. Do not seek for the truth, merely cease to cherish opinions and cling to ideas and beliefs as if they were the truth 🙏🙏🙏🙏
"Beautifully said! The true wisdom lies in acknowledging the vastness of the unknown and embracing the limitations of our individual knowledge. Letting go of rigid beliefs opens us to greater possibilities and deeper understanding.
Amen, and there is where you will find peace. ❤️🙏
The best conversations that I had in my life where when I was not thinking but just present.
Great Eckhart, love the content, love your humor, thank you so much.
Can I just say that I love this guy for what he has done for me? This is what I feel watching this, love. It's like pulling the thorn out of my form. Thank you!!!
Nothing in the "outer reality" is fixed.🙏😊
The more I learn the more I don't know... ✨
There, right there is wisdom 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I have to keep reminding myself that God is in control.
May all beings be happy and free. ❤🕊️
Yes, true. Creativity is the merging of infinite energy (consciousness, universal being,...) with the human body. The human body, brain incl, is the unique converter of infinite energy into form and expression (creativity), on the condition that imagination (old patterns) is not in the way of that energy free-flowing.
Peace Be Upon You All
So true.🙏
Only by remaining THERE, safe, in the unknown, freed from having to and wanting to know, can you open up to life and follow the path✨....
Which comes by itself.❤
So grateful 💓🙏✨✨🌺
"Definitely! Stepping into the unknown can be nerve-wracking. But, as Eckhart says in the video, it can also be incredibly liberating. I've personally found that embracing uncertainty has led to some of my most rewarding experiences and creative breakthroughs.
I am guilty of that, Thanks for this, is very helpful, have been judging Israel for their actions, is good here to be reminded that everyone is an individual and can’t tar everyone with the same brush.
How do you rectify the killing of 120 children daily? What to do with the grief & rage of that....

Merci beaucoup M.Eckhart Tolle !
This one was helpful this morning as it's a reminder that sometimes an individuals humanity is overlooked as i judge them as part of a group.
Very important to remain open, when a person is depressed they become closed

This Basil, this Sybil, this smack on the head 🤕😁👍🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you.
Thank you🌸❤
I got the right message at the right time. Thank you 🙏
Thank you, Eckhart, for this talk. 🙏
I hope the ones that needed to here this exact talk was able to receive and understand it!
Thanks Eckhart great topic and reminders about uncertainty! 💜
Hiya honey bunny, it's great to see you here in the community as usual and I look forward to our chat later. Love you! xo💜xo
@@stephenflood3463 Hi lovey dovey good to see you and chat with you then! xo💜xo
Huh huh, sorry to interrupt 😊,, being comfortable with uncertainty is surely the key to peace, freedom from the need to think, thinking can be fun or it can be torture, without the need to know any or all of the answers keeps it fun 🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@johngreen4683 Your fine John, I agree because I'm in the process of writing a novel and there's two types of writers, a plotter and a pantser. A plotter prefers to know everything about the story before they even begin writing, whereas a pantser prefers not knowing every single detail and let's the story tell itself. I find there is great enjoyment in not knowing what's going to happen next, yet as a pantser I'm still highly aware of the story that's unfolding and I can edit it where needed. By writing this way gives more space within for the super conscious to work through us when it mysteriously arises. Ps: your giggles are humoring.😂🙏
@@johngreen4683 No worries John. I get what you mean and using thoughts constructively can be a wonderful thing, especially when manifesting exciting plans for the future! I'm going to the Caribbean and Ireland this year and I'm super excited! Wishing you a wonderful day and future as well! 💜🌌💙
I am ok
I am enough
I am complete
I am grateful
thank you dear Eckharrt
What is going on?
Is it Eckhart or TH-cam?
I’ve been getting ads on many of the latest videos. There’s been 3 ads on this video alone and it’s not even 11 minutes long. It’s jarring when I’m deeply pondering his words.
Anybody else experiencing this?
I adore you Eckhart. Regardless.
They do it to interrupt the flow of consciousness.
@@stephenflood3463
That tracks.
Anything to disrupt connection. Can’t have souls coming into the knowledge of their true self. I suppose it’s just another lesson, a challenge. Instead of being irritated by it I should try to stay present and maintain the flow. It is but a few seconds of time.
Thank you for provoking introspection in me. Hope you have a wonderful day.
@@bahmdiggity9577 I only got 1 ad whilst I was watching so it must vary for different users. Google owns you tube so it's down to them. Thank you, you have splendid day too!
@@bahmdiggity9577 Exactly, thanks, and you have a splendid day too!
Just what l needed to hear today. Thank you Eckhart. Love and light to you and to all.❤😊❤
Great speech this time again, advancing wisely through the thinking and the believings of the audience
All-Ways In-Sight-Full!
Gracias una vez más ❤
I've been holding a judgement of someone I've never met on a personal level for some time. I try to hold that I only judge his decisions that have a direct impact on my life, but I have caught myself making value judgement statements about his character...I must stop those thoughts because they are imaginary and unhealthy and unhelpful to my sanity and serenity in the Now!
Thanks for the reminder Eckhart!!!
You are already half way there, huge respect 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks John.
@@michaelbreeding1109 I've struggled myself in not quite the same but in a very similar way in the past too Michael, you already know the feelings and thoughts aren't real and that really is huge huge plus. My advice is just know and truly accept (they are not your thoughts and feelings, they are not really even really about you) , they belong 100% to the mind not yourself. Try not to analyse or rationalise your minds thoughts to yourself, just let the mind get on with its own busi-ness while you get on with your life in peace 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I appreciate your thoughts here...and agree. It's not my bidness to know or even contemplate upon what other people might be thinking, much less to assign value judgement to this unknowable thing! Being still and accepting that everything is exactly as it is supposed to be...key to life!
Our "conditioned minds" can teach us a few things about our past, but that's about it !
I just love it when Eckhart tickles himself…it’s the way I know he’s his own man and isn’t a pretender…he can’t contain him tickling himself with his own thoughts.
Thank you so much Eckhart for your teachings!!🙏🌌💚
Thank you😊
So much wisdom and truth in what you speak
He makes me feel relaxed anda safe..🎉
❤❤❤
Thank you Eckart Tolle
Thank you, very, very much.
Another way is, Let Happiness play out. Thanks E.
Great, great we love you too much
He makes me laugh every time 😂
Beautiful video 😍
Regards, thank you.
The form realm can give way to outstanding and breathtaking beauty
Meet in openness❤
Gratitude ❤
maybe we'll see each other one day
i love you !!
Mądry człowiek
Merci.
Good talk period. I miss the water fall sound at the end of the video.
I'm getting a little better that. Particularly when the words are very important.
Thks
Admitting you know nothing is a big step towards Enlightenment.
🙏❤️🙏 thank you ❣️🕊️
O ego verdadeiramente teme isso: nenhum pensamento, nenhum poder e conhecimento pessoal. A pratica diaria disso levará inevitavelmente a sua dissolucao.
..anxiety: fear/desire of knowing/unknowing. What does thought truly know or unknow about that labelled as I am. Nothing, because I am neither knowing nor am I unknowing. So how can form know or unknow? The only truth form can express about I am is a blank mind, which is the true nature of form: null and void. I am that I am. I am...

Yeah there’s a lot of labels for the species there’s so many that not a single person is left out. I prefer to swear profanity (the ‘L’ word mainly) I find it works better for me lol
Self-made prision is right way of looking at it. So much misery comes from that.
It seems like good old-fashioned commonsense. ❤

Embrace the unknown, he says. I did once, she slapped me.
We need to be able to use our mind as a tool in this reality.
Ive heard you say tjis somewhere before. And that we have to be able to learn from past mistakes so we don't keep repeating the same mistakes again and again.
So surely when you have realised that someone has lied to you it is something to be wary of.
Having been born to terribly abusive parents, who were also liars, I know when someone lies to you it is a red flag...as you say tgey are many reasons why people lie and some are down right malicious reasons and you could be dealing with an abusive personality.
So I don't understand your example in your talk today.
Should we just ignore peoples bad behaviour.
Socrates never said that 😊
Let me break this down as I see.
So, if someone called me on the phone, I should stay quiet for a while before I say hello. Very strange.
Or if I was in front of a Judge facing unpaid fines issues, I should stay quiet for a while before I answer the Judges question. Very strange. If I phoned 911 emergency, I should stay quiet before I yell that my house is on fire and there are occupants inside. Very strange.
That sounds like the teacher is placing himself as more important than who he is talking to by wasting peoples time by waiting.
One would think one would be prepared for what to say before hand.
So now this teacher knows that nobody really has understood what Socrates meant and the teacher knows that people of Socrates time thought Socrates was just pretending not to know, but, this teacher is convinced Socrates was referring to the state of not knowing.Very strange.
This means the teacher must have had a direct line to Socrates. Now that is some kind of Power of not Knowing how that happened.
One's physical source within imprinted knowledge that was afforded to the intelligent species at its inception at an epoch for their individual lineage is ones all knowing.
Your physical brain is connected to your physical source within and its imprinted knowledege which is attempting to enlighten your mind ( the non physical tool) of its presence, your true real presence.
The point is, it's not ones choice to not know, because the imprinted knowledge is imprinted and that is ones state of all knowing. Anybody who is not aware of there physical source presence and not allowed themselves to be enlightened by their imprinted knowledge are obviously confusing their mind by external beliefs from Teachers/Gurus beliefs.
When you say 'hello' to others, do you think? When you are faced with an emergency situation, do you think? No. They come out spontaneously. When there's a snake in front of you, do you think to run? You just run, right? It is intelligence in operation not intellect. Even though one is bombarded with so many thoughts but when one sees a snake, he runs. In that split second, thoughts disappear and you make a wise action without any preparation, decision and planning.
... blah bla blah...
and furthermore, bla bla blah......ba la la la bla Ia,
and, in case you didn't know, bla
bla bla bla blah..
..and for your information, blah bla la la blah
and furthermore, ba la la blah la la...............................................
blah⚰️👋🎖️🏅🥇
@@Perujay-dl2bs Well these days who says hello to others, especially in a busy city, otherwise one would be saying hello a thousand times a day, very strange. If you are in a small town then one would expect hello"s and one would think, because one has to acknowledge and recognise that person first before they say hello.
Same with the snake. The brain would have to recognise its a snake first and then in an instant the brain realises its danger and set in motion to run spontaneously because the brain had been conditioned somewhere in ones past first that a snake is danger.
Preparation for snake danger has already been imprinted so there is no need for a wise decision. A wise decision is implemented when something has never been experienced before then following that wise decision whether it's correct or not, the correct decision will be imprinted for future decisions of the same. That is intelligence gathering and apply knowledge and skills.
And all of that is done using ones physical source and physical brain.
So thoughts are non physical and control nothing.
As you said, quote; "that split second thoughts disappear" ie thoughts, consciousness, mind are all non physical stuff and control nothing, they are just tools of use for the physical source.
What did you do when you seen the snake, someone asked. "Well my first thought was to run". That is the answer 99% of the time. So one does think.
is he still alive ??
That coughing woman should have left.
It has presented the opportunity to practice acceptance
All world is in terrible state of very posible full fledged WW3, blood, sweat and tears, world economic crisis and starve. Let's embrace all that uncertain. 🤣 I know exactly what you mean when all that is written n your "new age" aquarius age books. You also jumped on bandwagon of one world dystopian government.
Well you can learn to embrace uncertainty or you can live in a state of anxiety. Your comment would make sense if he said to ignore reality but that's not what he said.
@@ahuman_xo : You also can embrace uncertanity particulary WARS. 3 wars raging right now at this moment in world but you have no idea what war is because you did not experience it on your arse. Maybe you could then understand what were i stating about.
Why is there so much coughing in the audience lol wth
Me sharing my testimony is not for sympathy someone made the comment that I’m begging! Begging for prayers! 😅 such a sin sad how christians treat others in need. Simply asking for prayers as a single mother with two children with special needs I’m struggling to support. No wonder ppl turn away from religion and God! The rude comments I receive for asking for prayers are truly heartbreaking don’t worry it’s because of you I’m losing faith. If this is the God you serve I want no parts of it. God bless
whoever you are, ur pfp says that you're at 6.17 thousand subscribers, you must spend some time & energy posting & reposting your story, with slight variations, over how many other channels, it's a wonder you have any time to pray for anything.
also, i've never seen you respond to any comment, not once.
In fifty years time you'll still be a single mother with two imaginary children with special needs whom you need to support. Real people with real special needs children are always supported financially by the state. Even if your just asking folks to pray for you, it's still begging.
That’s Not funny! Some people have been deeply traumatized and don’t trust anymore. It is simply not funny. Those people were hurt. Deeply hurt, and to just laugh at it as if it was nothing is not funny at all.
true....but what he says is that .......that is the rootcause ...of the persons suffering....it would take time to realize that...its a process....until one becomes aware of that rigidity...no person will come out of that predicament. i think thats what he meant...the laughing is just a human attribute....not actually laughing at the situation ...but being human.
I struggle with your wife so called spiritual being! I only realised who she is! So, lost my trust!
