I am from Afghanistan. I suffered alot due to traumas, anxiety and depression because of war . Eckhart tolle saved my life. I have read all the books of Eckhart tolle. He is the great spiritual teacher. He makes much more sense to me.
Wahid I served in the US military and I want to say I am sorry for what you have been through. I hope you know that not everyone looks down on the afganis or any one else a part of the middle east. It's sad that the US military has caused so much havoc in that area of the world and it was due to many of our unconscious states of mind and the manipulation from certain leaders and media. One day I hope we all can remember we come from one source and are a part of that source weather we know it or not. Much love to you brother.
@@dallasfurnish3031 I protested the Vietnam war and every war since. I read your reply to "Wahid". Tears came to my eyes and immediately this poem came to mind and I thought about the greatness of your words : th-cam.com/video/sqOgyNfHl1U/w-d-xo.html
Back in 1974 I read Krishnamurti and Alan Watts , I saw something important there but struggled to understand - pity Eckert Tolle wasn't around then as he'd have saved me much confusion.I'm 77 and understand now that I was completely out of synch with people around me then.People today are lucky to have these talks with Eckert.Good wishes to all now and into the 'future' in the now.😊 Paul
One of my favorite old sayings is, "The past is history, tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why it's called the "present". Namaste friend.💖🙏
For me, No one has ever made more sense of spiritual teachings than this man. His words ring true from deep within. They echo so many other spiritual teachings but in a way that I am not pretending to understand. The understanding is felt from within. I cannot describe the comfort this approach brings to me and my anxious fearful self. Far better than any drug or therapy I have encountered for the past 20+ years.
if you keep listening to him as i have over the years he speaks total nonsense..i don't expect you to understand that..right now....at least but you will..his insight if you want to call it that is not practical when it comes to many circumstances in life....
All a spiritual teacher can ever do is point you towards that which you've forgotten. For me, Eckhart's vocabulary and way of articulation was the perfect pointer. As you said, I was no longer pretending to find the thing it was pointing it, but actually found it! His vocabulary may not work for everyone, but it is for many.
Eckhart is without a doubt one of the most powerful spiritual people arrived on earth till now. Believe me guys drink him as much as you can before the form dissolve...
During school, I use to accidentally meditate in classes. There were a few instances where I became aware of my own consciousness and felt my presence and everything around me was one. Hearing Eckhart talk about this is blowing my mind.
@Irridessa Amore after having that experience you will probably embark on a serious spiritual path to try and embody it all the time. Having a deeply present Man can help ignite those spiritual fires. Let me know if you want a conscious relationship, I can help you find it.
I would feel that after Karate, my teacher used Tai Chi in every class. I would lay down and feel my awareness was larger than my body, or my conscious was feet above my body. Years later I began meditating to project and now I better understand that feeling. Beautiful and so peaceful. And projection is amazing if you haven't yet!
I have been watching this video for 10 years. He makes it sound so easy, and it is, actually, once I can see the thoughts for what they are, and not identify with them. Thanks so much for keeping this video on youtube.
We are so blessed to have Eckhart Tolle alive at this moment in time. He brings light into our dark yet beautiful world. May our presence within help shed light of awareness for all sentient beings. 🕯️
Same! I’m 22 and sooo happy that I discovered this man and his teachings... I work with older women and they say I’m more “mature” than most people they know their age. I think it’s because I am in control of my mind and emotions via eckharts teachings :)
Golden Wizard knowledge doesn't belong to someone. he just explains how to be in our natural state. spreading the message that has been there for hundreds or thousands of years.
@Golden Knight Eckhart doesn't say that the knowledge is invented by him, rather he says he is just presenting them. Moreover, if you get to longer versions of his talks, he even quotes from religious scriptures and also discusses interactions with other teachers. Thanks and Regards.

Thank you Eckhart! Since I was born, more than fifty years ago, I had never met someone who teaches spirituality in such a simple, clear and yet objective way. Thank you for "The power of now", it feels as if heaven has merged with earth. We appreciate.
"Consciousness is constantly being absorbed by a stream of thinking." WOW! How unbelievably accurate and simple is that statement. His words can really put your life into perspective.
When a person has been hunted.. their awareness becomes everything... your life depends on awareness.. to be unaware will cause you to fall pray. There is more to a human then meets the eye..
What a skillful teacher! I've been listening to Eckhart for 20 years. All of his talks are pure gold and most leave me breathless. But this one may well be his best. Not a single redundant word in over 30 minutes. Phenomenal
Beyond all that, there’s the fierce, capitalist machine behind Tolle’s work to contend with. Nearly everything this guy touches these days is being turned into a product intended for “your awakening,” and I don’t get the sense that he has any problem with that. In fact, I think the packaging of Tolle as a non-threatening spiritual guru has not only lead to wildly higher sales and spreading of his message, but also wholesale rejection of his work by those like myself actively resisting capitalism, colonialism, and the commodification of spiritual practice.
@@MrClarkkent2001 it sounds like you are still very much entrenched into an ideology, identity, and ego. Tolle speaks about your point in his book A New Earth.

After 40 years of meditation, I want to add something. I've learned there are many ways to meditate. I really love his concepts and talks. I have learned to focus my thoughts on certain words which are really inner feelings. This awareness of the self, the presence, manifests in feelings within. Some have named it the fruit of the spirit. First, some words that represent feelings of calmness... peace, love, trust, humbleness. Yogananda said the first sign of success in meditation is feeling peaceful. The second type of feeling is more like excitement... one could focus upon feeling joy, enthusiasm, strength, and unlimitedness. One example of a meditation using words... breathe in (and really try to feel) peace, and breathe out stress and anxiety. Do this repeatedly. Really feel calmness, peace. Breathe in trust, breathe out fear. The power of positive thinking can be viewed as the power of positive feeling. Also, many meditation practices begin by relaxing the body, where we sometimes hold stress. Breathing exercises can calm the body. Progressive relaxation of all the muscles is another. Even exercise or a hot bath or sauna can relax the body. Anyway, hope this may help someone. Don't worry, feel happy. Peace.
the thing about most meditation is that it is less easily transferable to daily activities....as they focus on limited perceptions as their goal. IE you may focus just on your breathing. Eckhart is recommending a much broader arena of focus which is somewhat unique.
I love this analogy... As someone who had actually thought they were being productive, as a multi-tasker, I was never in the moment. I am thankful to recognize this and to know the difference!
Dear Eckhart, I am so grateful you have taught me so simply how to to meditate and make it light. Just being with the Present moment and letting thoughts just flow on or away like water or air . Thoughts no longer frighten or anger me ( for long). I am so grateful I can look forward to meditating. It is as easy as breathing. I can even do it on my own. It is early, but digestion and sleep are improving. I am finding release and relief. My gratitude to you . Blessings
What a great talk. I finished my evening before bedtime with this one. I have a lot of gratitude for the wisdom shared by Eckhart Tolle. Plus he is humorous and humor is a powerful way to lay out what you’re communicating. So great! Goodnight everyone.
I came here because my obsessionally worrying mind is spoiling my life. My bed has become an instrument of torture, not a place of relaxation. Insomnia through over-thinking ruins my day-time hours. I knew I had to find a way of quieting the 'chattering monkeys' in my head. Eckhart has, with appreciated humour, made me feel 'normal'. Now I understand how and why thoughts get a grip on my attention. Now I feel aremed against un-invited thoughts.
Try my technique unplug your ego and your brain and take that plug and plug it into your soul in your heart that really quieted things up for me a lot and then allow all the thoughts that are left just to flow through every thought you resist will get stuck in place and become your experience good luck friend you can do it

If you dare, for just one hour, one day, one week - don’t just believe but know, with every molecule in your existence, that you are an Infinite Creator. Feel just how right it feels as pure Joy and Grace radiates from you in that Space. Feel how much Divine Love the Universe has for you.
I used to meditate for years TM, Buddhist, Holosync which can be restful. However I used to still get very irritated during meditation. Then I read about The Power of Now. Understanding how the ego is at the root of many problems is far more helpful. I no longer meditate as it does not really change the problems caused by the ego. Being aware of the ego is very important and eliminates self inflicted problems that we blame on others.
Thank you God for these recordings, I have learned ways to control "Francesca"... my meaner side of my bipolar personality. Eckhart has helped me cope with my mental health issues n NOW have a beautiful career ahead of me. I'm forever grateful to you, Dear Friends and Family and Staff!!! Have a great week!!!
I can really appreciate how people like Eckhart Tolle and Alan Wallace, who speak about complex topics like consciousness and meditation, don't need to flaunt a certain 'image'. They don't seem to associate very much with the 'New Age', 'hippy', self-righteous fad that often comes with worldly and philosophical interest. No long hair, no eccentric clothing, no tattoos or piercings,.....just honest people. Even the way they speak is clean and good-natured, with very little influence from the degeneracy of pop-culture.
A very powerful message from Eckhart Tolle. His question "What does it feel like to be you (without recourse to memory) in the the present moment" is very significant pointer.
Ja..das muss man ein paar mal mit geschlossenen Augen anhören..dann sieht man ihn in Gedanken..ich selbst sehe ihn in einem strahlenden Kreis sitzen wunderschön..weil ich ihm nicht mehr mit den Augen sehe sondern mit dem Herzen ❤
Владислав Пак yes, like a fresh cobra ready for that next mouse lol soooooo fresh he keeps this up hes going to have the "light of lucifer" taken from his audience around his head. lol ooooo "I just get down after seeing him; I don't know why" (because he sucked your energy) duh
Alan Brody as always, I mean what I say and I say what I mean. Ecky is a mind programmer for the meek, the armed and dangerous bullies or their victims who DO inherit the earth, a cesspool with her oceans filled with their appliances and consumer goods, her life all removed by the mindless who choose as their guidance within, instead of finding THE way back to reality, the EGO, an imbecile was their god and so Justice, the evening, happened. As you have done with actions and apathy to ALL of the least of these so, ALL will do to you, as, yes Jesus does NOT incarnate again, no do other good human beings....but you DO. Cowards to face that moment of terror when they ran from love and were alone alone alone alone.... faking like kids whistling in the graveyard, the left behind...the stooges, the dunces, the fools....DENIAL....the best friend of these does end... it stops working..it is done.
the hysteria and paranoia of the ego lead is so OBVIOUS, why type.? why not. The "no loitering signs, the "no trespassing" the walls and Double locked doors, "they" are after me" the de-evolution of minds ..."smoking is not allowed" that is how scared children speak to each other. Smoking is not allowed by WHOM? "BY THEM" "THEY DON'T ALLOW SMOKING OR YOU WILL GET INTO TROUBLE"
Why does Eckhart sound so precise, witty, clever and wise? Because he is permanently connected to the inner vastness of pure consciousness. If anyone meets him, tell him we are eternally grateful for the teachings/ pointings.
Thank you lovely Eckhart . When our thoughts can make our precious lives seem so difficult and complicated, presence introduces us to reality, which is unlimited aliveness , freedom and beauty 🙏
Eckhart is one of the greatest spiritualists to grace this earth! When you are aware of the present, the ongoing chatterbox disappears, giving oneself peace and happiness 🎉
Eckhart is wise to tell that billions of Christians reciting and talking of the Kingdom of God for over 2000 years and never understood,I did understand about this few years ago and now it's endorsed,what a life🙏
Meditation is a mysterious concept that some people might find difficult to comprehend. The easier way to get into the mood of getting awareness of the surrounding and yourself is go do observational sketching. When you spend the time observing the surrounding, and then putting what you see on paper, you will enter that state of mind, the right side of the mind, and will be able to observe things that you have never observed before, and being to see things in a new light.
Teoh Yi Chie Hello Teoh...I was just given this video by a dear friend of mine.I am an artist by hobby,I was watching your Urban sketching and actually practiced it here where I live.I am sorry I lost direction and wondered off to other subjects😰😫 what Mr.Tolle is saying here makes perfect sense and also what you say too,but doing it in a creative way...focusing on shapes,shadows,lines and spaces.I am most happy when I focus on one subject and everything else is pushed aside.This internet crazy society makes it so hard to concentrate and also creates egos ..that are inflated even.It is a hard concept for me to grasp"Meditation" but the mindful way or being in the present moment is easier to understand I think.I will get back to urban sketching I think and try to adopt this way of meditation too.👍🏻✍🏼🧘✌🏻
10 years ago when I first bought the book the Power of Now, I found it difficult to understand. I stopped not even half way I was 29. 10 years later I started the same book, I had a lot of aha moments. It takes maturity for me to understand this book. Thanks Eckhart Tolle 🙏🏼 And I intend to keep/introduce this book to my 13yo son hopefully it won’t take this long for him to understand ❤️🙏🏼
I found the book : « A new Earth » easier to read than « The power of now ». I think « A new Earth » makes a good introduction before reading « the power of now ».
Wonderful speech The Journey into the NOW 1) Aware of your surrounding through your sense perceptions 2) Acknowledge of life 3) Feel the aliveness pervading in your body 4) Leave space between your thoughts 5) Can you be aware of the fact that you are aware ? The essence of now is ultimately who you are. There is no self. Have a good live in spacious awareness. (from Turkey)

I was meditating for two years to only realise that I'm doing it totally wrong and I was anxious that I had a problem because I never reached the point of self understanding and love. Thank you Jim Carrey for straight giving me Eckhart Tolle and thank you Eckhart for your existense.
This shit is perfecting my posture. I raise my chest and externally rotate my shoulders when I become 'present' or feel life energy radiating across my nervous system
Greatful to have found Eckhart Tolle. He is a genius in explaining the spiritual state and how to observe and apply it. His guidance has been extremely valuable in my quest. 🙏
Man, I love listening to him, he's funny but he makes me realize that is what I do, and usually it would offend me if someone else was pointing that out, but somehow I can laugh and acknowledge that is what I do....
As many spiritual teachers nowaday will advocate to talk to ours subconcious mind positive stuff to overcome difficult life situations. Its application implying more stress and overwhelming. Whereas Eckhart relies all the stress. By listening to him frees from ours own self and all of a sudden feel relief from all burden. Wonderful ❤❤❤Incredible❤❤❤Most extraordinary Being❤❤❤
Hello +Brenda Cleveland, and for doing it for free do you consider yourself clever? cynical? or a robber? (because this talks are not "for free" even if they are in TH-cam, because they have copyright by Eckhart Teachings Inc.)
The problem is not the price +Matthew Lanciana, you can find almost everything for free also in Internet, I just wonder if Echart really need that (big quantity) of money to enlight people...
I am from Afghanistan. I suffered alot due to traumas, anxiety and depression because of war . Eckhart tolle saved my life. I have read all the books of Eckhart tolle. He is the great spiritual teacher. He makes much more sense to me.

I take notes
Thank you 🙏🏼
After years of following Eckhart I have finally felt and recognised the space between thoughts. Thank you Eckhart. 🙏🏻
Awesome ❤
After 40 years of meditation, I want to add something. I've learned there are many ways to meditate. I really love his concepts and talks. I have learned to focus my thoughts on certain words which are really inner feelings. This awareness of the self, the presence, manifests in feelings within. Some have named it the fruit of the spirit. First, some words that represent feelings of calmness... peace, love, trust, humbleness. Yogananda said the first sign of success in meditation is feeling peaceful. The second type of feeling is more like excitement... one could focus upon feeling joy, enthusiasm, strength, and unlimitedness. One example of a meditation using words... breathe in (and really try to feel) peace, and breathe out stress and anxiety. Do this repeatedly. Really feel calmness, peace. Breathe in trust, breathe out fear. The power of positive thinking can be viewed as the power of positive feeling. Also, many meditation practices begin by relaxing the body, where we sometimes hold stress. Breathing exercises can calm the body. Progressive relaxation of all the muscles is another. Even exercise or a hot bath or sauna can relax the body. Anyway, hope this may help someone. Don't worry, feel happy. Peace.
*Yea, I read some of Yogananda too. You might like what Drukama is doing, it's a tradition I ended up in. Give it a look! Be well.*
Thanks for the insight Brian!
Really wonderful, encouraging advice. So helpful! Thanks for sharing.
the thing about most meditation is that it is less easily transferable to daily activities....as they focus on limited perceptions as their goal. IE you may focus just on your breathing. Eckhart is recommending a much broader arena of focus which is somewhat unique.
❤️
I love this analogy... As someone who had actually thought they were being productive, as a multi-tasker, I was never in the moment. I am thankful to recognize this and to know the difference!
Dear Eckhart, I am so grateful you have taught me so simply how to to meditate and make it light. Just being with the Present moment and letting thoughts just flow on or away like water or air . Thoughts no longer frighten or anger me ( for long). I am so grateful I can look forward to meditating. It is as easy as breathing. I can even do it on my own. It is early, but digestion and sleep are improving. I am finding release and relief. My gratitude to you . Blessings
🙏🙏🙏 Noble Silence.

what a gift to us to be able to hear him explain in language that we can understand

Pietro Giardina for some reason likes to troll in comments of many Tolle videos,
so, per usual, here you go Pietro, 🧻you're welcome.
This was quite literally the best video I have ever seen in my life
What a great talk. I finished my evening before bedtime with this one. I have a lot of gratitude for the wisdom shared by Eckhart Tolle. Plus he is humorous and humor is a powerful way to lay out what you’re communicating. So great! Goodnight everyone.
Simply the best. I realized this truth by accident when I was 16.
"If you're born in a mental asylum you don't know that everyone is insane"
Such a perfect description of our world.
Now we are in the time son of man, God in Flesh! Have a blessed day!
Not everyone is insane it’s actually less than you think
Thing is, we know we live in an asylum, most people are happy with it and the rulers in charge are psychopaths..
Watch Forensic Files (HLN) once in a while. Mental illness is a sickness. When does it become a crime? Very old Cold cases are solved daily.
@VR G ya but way less than before we are actually rising in consciousness with technology and science
I came here because my obsessionally worrying mind is spoiling my life. My bed has become an instrument of torture, not a place of relaxation. Insomnia through over-thinking ruins my day-time hours. I knew I had to find a way of quieting the 'chattering monkeys' in my head. Eckhart has, with appreciated humour, made me feel 'normal'. Now I understand how and why thoughts get a grip on my attention. Now I feel aremed against un-invited thoughts.
thats why I came here as well,i need a change in my mind
Invite the uninvited guests
Try my technique unplug your ego and your brain and take that plug and plug it into your soul in your heart that really quieted things up for me a lot and then allow all the thoughts that are left just to flow through every thought you resist will get stuck in place and become your experience good luck friend you can do it
Eckhart Tolle radiates positive energy...he has helped me considerably. Opened my eyes to a new dimension!

Me too what a wonderful good man
Beyond all that, there’s the fierce, capitalist
machine behind Tolle’s work to contend with. Nearly everything this guy
touches these days is being turned into a product intended for “your
awakening,” and I don’t get the sense that he has any problem with that.
In fact, I think the packaging of Tolle as a non-threatening spiritual
guru has not only lead to wildly higher sales and spreading of his
message, but also wholesale rejection of his work by those like myself
actively resisting capitalism, colonialism, and the commodification of
spiritual practice.

you again, here, i found what you need,
🧻
If you dare, for just one hour, one day, one week - don’t just believe but know, with every molecule in your existence, that you are an Infinite Creator. Feel just how right it feels as pure Joy and Grace radiates from you in that Space. Feel how much Divine Love the Universe has for you.
Carlos Wren just takes practice :) go easy on the weed- it can be a great tool if you use it as just a tool ❤️

Eckhart is so calming. Such an interesting man.
I used to meditate for years TM, Buddhist, Holosync which can be restful. However I used to still get very irritated during meditation. Then I read about The Power of Now. Understanding how the ego is at the root of many problems is far more helpful. I no longer meditate as it does not really change the problems caused by the ego. Being aware of the ego is very important and eliminates self inflicted problems that we blame on others.
I'm right there with you!
+calsitup I combine em' both. Meditate and presense.
+calsitup So what is the "EGO"?
The "EGO" is all the things you identify with, all your beliefs, attitudes and so on. People end up in conflict with others defending their "EGO"
calsitup So who am I? I mean real "me". If I'm not that ego?
Thank you God for these recordings, I have learned ways to control "Francesca"... my meaner side of my bipolar personality. Eckhart has helped me cope with my mental health issues n NOW have a beautiful career ahead of me. I'm forever grateful to you, Dear Friends and Family and Staff!!! Have a great week!!!
This person watching is videos is helping me understand things xxxx
❤ Gratitude
Brilliant!
I'm addicted to Tolle's video's they keep me sane.
I'm honored to be still somewhat young with almost 3 years with Eckhart's teachings. He's helping to save me from myself 😊 peace and love
What a thought … saving us from ourselves … but now I certainly see that is needed. Thank goodness he is helping us know how we can do this.
Amazing, simple and very enlightening talk! One of the best talk about meditation ever in my opinion
I agree..best one yet ..
Thank you soo much Echart!
I love this man. His teaching is so powerful yet so basic. Thank you 🙏
I really love this guy he is beautiful and so funny. I feel truly blessed to have found his books and videos.♥️
I can really appreciate how people like Eckhart Tolle and Alan Wallace, who speak about complex topics like consciousness and meditation, don't need to flaunt a certain 'image'. They don't seem to associate very much with the 'New Age', 'hippy', self-righteous fad that often comes with worldly and philosophical interest. No long hair, no eccentric clothing, no tattoos or piercings,.....just honest people. Even the way they speak is clean and good-natured, with very little influence from the degeneracy of pop-culture.
did you mean Alan watts?
Daniel San No, but I suppose he could be included as well
Alan Wallace, I'll check him out. Thanx. :)
Think he meant alan watts.

Journey into the Now ❤ present moment 🙏be aware of your sense perceptions ! Consciousness ! Light of presence 🙏 Now! ❤ Thank you Eckhart ❤️
This is pure Gold.
Today is the present moment of Now, thank you for sharing
A very powerful message from Eckhart Tolle. His question "What does it feel like to be you (without recourse to memory) in the the present moment" is very significant pointer.
He totally nails it in this one! Love it....and will save it to watch again and again! :)
Ja..das muss man ein paar mal mit geschlossenen Augen anhören..dann sieht man ihn in Gedanken..ich selbst sehe ihn in einem strahlenden Kreis sitzen wunderschön..weil ich ihm nicht mehr mit den Augen sehe sondern mit dem Herzen ❤
And can somebody say that he is 67 years old!? He looks so fresh and full of energy.
***** What do you mean?
Владислав Пак yes, like a fresh cobra ready for that next mouse lol soooooo fresh he keeps this up hes going to have the "light of lucifer" taken from his audience around his head. lol ooooo "I just get down after seeing him; I don't know why" (because he sucked your energy) duh
+Roberta Smith what do you mean?

as always, I mean what I say and I say what I mean. Ecky is a mind programmer for the meek, the armed and dangerous bullies or their victims who DO inherit the earth, a cesspool with her oceans filled with their appliances and consumer goods, her life all removed by the mindless who choose as their guidance within, instead of finding THE way back to reality, the EGO, an imbecile was their god and so Justice, the evening, happened. As you have done with actions and apathy to ALL of the least of these so, ALL will do to you, as, yes Jesus does NOT incarnate again, no do other good human beings....but you DO. Cowards to face that moment of terror when they ran from love and were alone alone alone alone.... faking like kids whistling in the graveyard, the left behind...the stooges, the dunces, the fools....DENIAL....the best friend of these does end... it stops working..it is done.
the hysteria and paranoia of the ego lead is so OBVIOUS, why type.? why not. The "no loitering signs, the "no trespassing" the walls and Double locked doors, "they" are after me" the de-evolution of minds ..."smoking is not allowed" that is how scared children speak to each other. Smoking is not allowed by WHOM? "BY THEM" "THEY DON'T ALLOW SMOKING OR YOU WILL GET INTO TROUBLE"
Mr. Tolle is such a good teacher. Thank you for sharing this meditation.
Why does Eckhart sound so precise, witty, clever and wise? Because he is permanently connected to the inner vastness of pure consciousness.
If anyone meets him, tell him we are eternally grateful for the teachings/ pointings.
The best advertising item for Tolle is the fact that he looks amazingly young for his age....because of his approach to life.

Thank you lovely Eckhart . When our thoughts can make our precious lives seem so difficult and complicated, presence introduces us to reality, which is unlimited aliveness , freedom and beauty 🙏
Eckhart is one of the greatest spiritualists to grace this earth! When you are aware of the present, the ongoing chatterbox disappears, giving oneself peace and happiness 🎉
The first literal fusion of observational comedy and meditation! A true blessing to behold someone who clearly feels love always. 🙏
He is such a natural presenter, his material works so well that no laugh or applause track is needed.
I’ve watched this several times. It’s just so rewarding.
Eckhart is wise to tell that billions of Christians reciting and talking of the Kingdom of God for over 2000 years and never understood,I did understand about this few years ago and now it's endorsed,what a life🙏
When looking for one's self...
always look for yourself,
in between the thoughts🌺
Meditation is a mysterious concept that some people might find difficult to comprehend. The easier way to get into the mood of getting awareness of the surrounding and yourself is go do observational sketching. When you spend the time observing the surrounding, and then putting what you see on paper, you will enter that state of mind, the right side of the mind, and will be able to observe things that you have never observed before, and being to see things in a new light.
That's an interesting comment Teoh. Although I don't sketch or draw, I think you're on to something with it. Thank you!
Great suggestion thank you
Very true.
Muy bueno!!! muchas gracias Teoh!!
Teoh Yi Chie Hello Teoh...I was just given this video by a dear friend of mine.I am an artist by hobby,I was watching your Urban sketching and actually practiced it here where I live.I am sorry I lost direction and wondered off to other subjects😰😫 what Mr.Tolle is saying here makes perfect sense and also what you say too,but doing it in a creative way...focusing on shapes,shadows,lines and spaces.I am most happy when I focus on one subject and everything else is pushed aside.This internet crazy society makes it so hard to concentrate and also creates egos ..that are inflated even.It is a hard concept for me to grasp"Meditation" but the mindful way or being in the present moment is easier to understand I think.I will get back to urban sketching I think and try to adopt this way of meditation too.👍🏻✍🏼🧘✌🏻
So simple and yet so difficult to achieve.
It is worth a lifetime of practice to grasp this state of presence.
Thanks for the ride!
Eduardo Manoel Araujo that is another thought that your mind is telling you. Take a closer second look before you believe what your brain is thinking.
Try to deciding that it's easy and it will happen a lot quicker life's only ever what you think it is that goes for experiences of every kind
10 years ago when I first bought the book the Power of Now, I found it difficult to understand. I stopped not even half way I was 29. 10 years later I started the same book, I had a lot of aha moments. It takes maturity for me to understand this book. Thanks Eckhart Tolle 🙏🏼
And I intend to keep/introduce this book to my 13yo son hopefully it won’t take this long for him to understand ❤️🙏🏼
“When the student is ready the teacher will appear”🙂
I found the book : « A new Earth » easier to read than « The power of now ». I think « A new Earth » makes a good introduction before reading « the power of now ».
Very good information 🙏you
Thank you so much for the power of now.
Eckhart Tolle is really a modern day Desert Father except he’s not religious. Remarkable really. Such a gift this man is.
Consciousness cannot be known yet everything appears in It !
Blessings
Thoughts of fear and anxiety surrounded me during lockdown period 2020, after watching this I hope I could feel better.
My goal in life is to be as calm and unmoved by outside world as this man
Wonderful speech The Journey into the NOW 1) Aware of your surrounding through your sense perceptions 2) Acknowledge of life 3) Feel the aliveness pervading in your body 4) Leave space between your thoughts 5) Can you be aware of the fact that you are aware ? The essence of now is ultimately who you are. There is no self. Have a good live in spacious awareness. (from Turkey)

here u are again,
& there u go 🧻
I just listened to the pier of now audiobook, it's free on you tube. Thank me later 🙏
A Great Teacher
This talk couldn't have come at a better time, thank you!
I was meditating for two years to only realise that I'm doing it totally wrong and I was anxious that I had a problem because I never reached the point of self understanding and love. Thank you Jim Carrey for straight giving me Eckhart Tolle and thank you Eckhart for your existense.
This shit is perfecting my posture. I raise my chest and externally rotate my shoulders when I become 'present' or feel life energy radiating across my nervous system
Greatful to have found Eckhart Tolle. He is a genius in explaining the spiritual state and how to observe and apply it. His guidance has been extremely valuable in my quest. 🙏
Love this man and his powerful spiritual messages.
Really lovely man. He's my cuppa tea these days.
Man, I love listening to him, he's funny but he makes me realize that is what I do, and usually it would offend me if someone else was pointing that out, but somehow I can laugh and acknowledge that is what I do....
As many spiritual teachers nowaday will advocate to talk to ours subconcious mind positive stuff to overcome difficult life situations. Its application implying
more stress and overwhelming. Whereas Eckhart relies all the stress. By listening to him frees from ours own self and all of a sudden feel relief from all burden. Wonderful ❤❤❤Incredible❤❤❤Most extraordinary Being❤❤❤
Thank you for reminding me of the goodness of life and all the things that surround me. Great talk!
What a great man!
great man? you have to pay 900 USD to see attend his boring repetitive events based on Krishnamurti speeches... Eckhart Stole is a great seller
No one is forcing you to pay it. He also has books you can buy second hand for 5 dollars.
But I just watched this for free.
Hello +Brenda Cleveland, and for doing it for free do you consider yourself clever? cynical? or a robber? (because this talks are not "for free" even if they are in TH-cam, because they have copyright by Eckhart Teachings Inc.)
The problem is not the price +Matthew Lanciana, you can find almost everything for free also in Internet, I just wonder if Echart really need that (big quantity) of money to enlight people...
Can you guys imagine if eckhart never existed ? Thank you so much eckhart I’m still trying to this whole presence tthing
