Wow exactly ...totally getting it...such powerful words.... thank you. ...keep shining your light. ..💗 PS... may I save n share this words with your caption to help others?
This was really helpful. I think spirituality is more about incorporating it into who you are rather than adding on a separate layer. And rather than shouting it out to the rooftops how very special you've become, it is nice to keep this part of yourself to yourself.
@Gamer K, ya, Tolle says this is like the ego coming in thru the back door, such a sneaky shapeshifting "entity" is this lord ego! (the imposter on the throne!)
What I find most difficult after my awakening and after living life through my mind in this dimension is the separation and how I see the world now. I can’t not see it. I’m living in this world but no longer of it and the stark sadness that I see everywhere. It can be very disheartening at times. ❤️🙏
I used to believe my life was boring and something was missing because it was very ordinary and lacked drama but now I know different after hearing Eckhart.
Me too,...after Eckhart Tolle and Jed Mckenna and Adyashanti and Osho and Alan Watts and Ram Dass and others. I was learning from Eckhart when I "awoke", then the others helped me to adjust to this (new-to-me) reality. Ahhh, the simplicity of it all. Ain't it great! 😄
When youre used to drama and discussions in your early years and teenagehood, in the adulthood you cant understand that life is just "normal" and good afterall, but after some years you understand and begin to experiment the miracle in the ordinary and is great
I used to think life was happening to me and not for me always looking for something outside to blame for how i was feeling till i created enough suffering for myself and realize one night of crying that it had always been me my mentality towards life. I broke free and never looked back until recently that something happen i started to slip back into those mental patterns but now self aware that i am the observer behind the thoughts and the mental story my mind likes to create so i can feel like the victim of life it no longer works i may experience it the sadness and feeling down but i pull myself out
Dear brother/sister scrolling through the comments😁 I am praying for your happiness, healing, heavenly bliss come knocking at your door of every goodness Allah, God sends down! And that soon for all the struggles you’ve shed tears for be replaced for you tears of rain of complete joy!
One if the many things I admire about Eckhart, is the consistency in his teachings. This video, to me, appears to from some years ago. Yet the message he sends out is exactly the same as he does today. …Namaste 🙏
He just repeats the same ideas. It may seem dull, boring or trivial but it's true anyway. We all might be having a spiritual life only if appreciate this moment.
Looove this! I am facing this exact challenge right now. But I will say, that being extreme with spirituality really helped heal my emotional body. Extreme pain seems to call for extreme measures to heal (energetic healing thru spirituality for me).. Now it seems time to balance.. I am ready to be an ordinary spiritual being living and playing in life with everyone. I am challenged now with learning how to integrate all that.. but thank you for this video because now I see that to just BE and allow the ordinary to unfold.
We are SPIRIT having human experiences so we cannot be more SPIRIT-ual than what we are right now so therefore spiritual growth is a matter of decrease, not increase..whittle away the programming, the false beliefs..etc. and coming back to who we truly are. Love and blessings...
@Megan McConaghy Beautiful.. this is why I leave a comment on every video I like. This is a beautiful community here and Eckhart changed my life when i read “Power of Now” gosh… over 20 years ago…
I understand your comment now more than ever. Being a spirit having a human experience is another way of experiencing spiritual growth. It’s a stop on the path to a higher level of consciousness. So like he Eckhart said, every experience in this physical world is spiritual because like you said, we are spirit having a human experience. Mind blowing.
I think there is a lot to be said about whittling away false beliefs, etc. - but getting rid of false beliefs does not guarantee that we see ourselves and the world as we ought. We need (the right) true beliefs also. I disagree about not being able to become more spiritual because we are already spirits, and here's why. It seems to be based on an idea that the spirit is static or cannot grow, augment, or be changed. Why? Because if the spirit can grow, we can be spirits (spiritual) and still become more so, in the same way that I can have muscles or be strong and still become more muscular and strong. I am human but can in some sense become more fully so by rejecting the things that corrupt or degrade life, and by doing more of the things that nurture life.
Can you help explain what this could mean? I think I understand what you might mean, and I am trying not to misrepresent what you express but to understand it. I take it that you are not condemning spirituality per se, intellect per se, or ordinariness per se, whatever those things are -- you might be saying to the intellectual, "go on continuing to be that way, as long as you are that way naturally or already." This is one interpretation of the enjoinder to "[do not] be," as in don't be this thing or that. Since you go on to say that we should "just be," having told us before not to be, as in not to be certain things, it seems you mean that we should be only what we already are, as in do not attempt change but rather understand and accept what we are. This is not very helpful to someone who wants to change, or is trying to have a better life or become a better person -- in effect your words could be construed as advising such a person to go on being what they might already be: egoistical, greedy, lazy, petty, ignorant, racist. After all, if you are not specifically decrying intellectualism, spirituality, or ordinariness, but rather advising against change as such, why is it different for the unenlightened person? Shouldn't they carry on devoid of light, or better still, never pinpoint darkness and obscurity as the source of their anxiety? After all, this is a form of labeling. This leads to another thought, which is that it is not clear what any of this has to do with labels, except to demonstrate their value in clarifying obscure thoughts. Words are a form of label -- they are a sign, meaning they stand in for, point to, or indicate something else, namely a concept or idea. This is in the same way as a label, say on a jar of food product, indicates its contents. The label "PICKLE" on the jar is not itself a pickle, but it tells us what to expect in the jar. It is important that we have labels, and that we get them right. In this way, in telling us what or how not to be -- changing, striving, grasping -- you have relied on labels. Without the label, or with the wrong label, I would not know what and how I am to not be, or how to just be. What if I am a person who tries diligently to change in order to become a better husband, father, employee, and citizen? Should I go on trying to be what I am not, to the betterment of myself and others around me, or should I resign myself to being an uncaring husband, an aloof father, a dishonest employee, an uninformed citizen? I do not think this is what you mean. Then why dismiss labels? Might it be helpful to identity and label those things which I am aiming for, in order to reach them more expediently? Isn't it difficult to arrive to New York City, if when booking the flight you do not have the destination in mind? You might get there, but only by dumb luck and not reliably. Isn't it likewise helpful to identity the absence or imperfect nature in ourselves of the good quality for which we are aiming? If we never label the thing, or never see ourselves as we are, we may lose sight of the value of the thing we are pursuing, and give up -- especially in the face of serious obstacles. Or we may think that we have already attained the thing when in reality we have not. And here, with all due respect and sympathy, I feel finally entitled to point out to you what is obvious to any honest reader, and what could be for you a most helpful label if only you could accept this difficult reality: and that is that you are confused, not enlightened, and your statements are vague at best and lazy at worst, and that you are not qualified to advise on matters of such great importance, because you are likely to reap what has been sown in you, which is confusion. If you will accept that you are confused, you can begin to receive more light.
@@andrewmccullough559 Consider a new born baby. IF never immersed in a society w language - would he eventually discover what pain is?

But don’t get to obsessed with not labelling. Labels are also a normal part of life. Just don’t take them too serious. They are just words, or maybe pointers.
Beautiful! The young man was humble, conscious and open. Eckhart was simple and on point in his response, all that arises within one's field of consciousness is for spiritual awakening, spiritual practice or to be instrumental, wittingly and unwittingly. Spirituality is not about doing, but about being. The religious person does; the one who is spiritually conscious is, and the doing is natural, spontaneous, effortless.
I find "spiritual" is in the everyday, ordinary things, because everything is indeed a miracle. Personally, it brings to mind the beautiful lyric of a country song, "Always be humble and kind." For me, that lyric has a far deeper meaning, and sums it up. Love to all. 🙏🕊
Yes, everyday and every moment is special and sometimes extraordinary. Don’t wait for Christmas, birthdays or your scheduled vacation; time is an illusion. Be here now.
Thank you 🙏 I was in that phase of thinking that I might have to stop watching movies, hiding myself from people so that I don’t get triggered anymore 😅so this helps thank you 🙏
"Those who come here with the idea of getting knowledge, even spiritual knowledge, come here as individuals aspiring to get something; that is the real difficulty. The seeker must disappear. When you know your real nature the knowledge "I Am" remains, but that knowledge is unlimited. It is not possible for you to acquire knowledge, you are knowledge. You are what you are seeking." - Nisargadatta Maharaj
I agree! The notion that “we” are in control of mind, body, consciousness, etc. is a fallacy. None of these three are to be nor should they be trusted for much of anything. Living in opposition to these “systems” is where the truth is hidden.
You aren't a double decker. Spiritual isn't to be achieved in another realm in the future. It's here and now. The more spiritual you are, the more ordinary you are. It's in chopping woods and carrying water Thanks Eckhart. 🤩🏡🚴♀️🍒😂♨️⛷🦋🌄🏝🍮🐘💡🎗🍭🐰
OMG! ordinary I love how you explain things! Thank You Mr. Tolle. I find myself always saying live in the NOW. and it has helped me so much. That ego boy is something else. I like how you said thoughts are just like clouds they come they go. Every day things are so spiritual for me NOW and don't know why I never realized this before until YOU! GOD BLESS YOU ! AND THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU DO! NAMASTE
So beautifully answered , and explained Mr . Tolle ! Nothing wrong with the ordinary . Our spiritually does not diminish , or vanish because of living an ordinary life . Every Now moment is spiritual . Never seek for what we already are , and Is ! With much gratitude , joy , and humility . 🙏💙💙😍😍🌺😊🌺👏👏👏❣️
Well then, you aren’t living in opposition to mind and body. Neither can be or should be trusted for much of anything. Following these two liars around is indeed a boring proposition.

I came across this video a few weeks ago & have been looking for it ever since. This time I saved it. I love to watch Eckhart's interactions with people esp. with the Q&As. I don't think that I ever actually heard anyone making it a point to express "I'm sorry we have to use these words...but words are all we have" What a lovely display of a sincerely kind & thoughtful soul.
As always a beautiful and insightful answer. Ram Dass also talked about how he thought he was all that because he was a Harvard professor etc but when he met his guru, all that didn't matter. The ordinary was beautiful and in love.
Everything is sacred if we choose to see it that way! In fact, one of my most poweful awakening experiences happened while doing one of the most mundane tasks in the world: washing dishes. This was before Echart Tolle published TPN. I was so in the moment, my mind became blank and all of a sudden I had this wonderful physical sensation of well being and peace, and connection. It influenced me greatly, even though it lasted just an instant, a blink of an eye and it was gone. Then, it was back to washing the dishes.
Sing your song in life's great symphony and allow others to join in with their own melody. We are all transformed by the vibrations of the whole! Just sing, sing your song! 🎶
That's why I don't follow these practices as a routine. Otherwise it will loose its appeal. I sometimes allow myself to dwell into my life story. But after sometime I start feeling discomfort due to mental chatter. Manytimes due to light hearted chatter too. Then I quiet my mind and practice presence and it feels very soothing. My muscle of presence is building up with time...💪💪☺️🙌
I trust Ariel to provide divine guidance with any needs I have on the physical plane and provide answers on how to meet those needs. And I know Ariel will also connect me with any fairies or nature spirits that wish to help me.
Have an extraordinary ordinary day, means noticing the lovely details in ordinary everyday things, and as a gauge to ensure spiritual practice is not forced, it should be effortless. Remember don't beat yourself up ... presence is there in an instant regardless of what happens before🙌💛
I Agree The Ordinary then Transforms to Extraordinary, But it is true too in my belief and experience that the Extraordinary then becomes the Ordinary. I think this is what this Gentleman had experienced (it can be quite Overpowering) BUT in need of Balance and letting the Energy 'Settle'. 🙏🙏🙏
seeing the recognition of Being in the eyes and then face of the eckhart and the questioner - if you need proof spirit/consciousness it is clear -but i expect that to see it you must already be aware of it ... what he (the eckhart) often says - "it is somewhat paradoxical. anyhow the most fulfilling post/video to date at this here and now... smiles all
Wow I've never seen Eckhart laugh that much it was great! Although I did get a little anxious for him, you know how when you laugh so hard you can't stop?
I enjoyed this video and absolutely excellent advice from Eckhart, it reminds me of the film Educating Rita where Rita is tired of her current life and says " there must be better songs to sing", much later in the film where Rita has lived a completely different life to the one she knew before Rita declares to the professor " I found a better song to sing " the professor replies "no you didn't find a better song, you simply found a different song to sing" There are many paths to the top of the mountain and each and every path eventually and ultimately leads to the peak and when we all arrive at the peak one day the view will be exactly the same for each and every one of us, its only our journeys that are different. If your path is a pleasant experience then enjoy every minute as much as you can but never kid yourself or more importantly try to kid anyone else you have found the one true path, because the moment you start to believe that your more lost than most.
Life is not in you without Life Himself Jesus Christ ! The Time is Short and the Door of Mercy for the Lost Sheep is closed soon. As soon as it closes you’ll have to face eternal torment and isolation from any joy. Come Home while you still can !!
Beautiful and wise words, dear friend. 🙏 Ordinary sounds wonderful to me! ^_^ Thank you for your beautiful work, Eckhart! 🤗 All the best to you and yours! ~SSS
When the ordinary begins to feel extraordinary in a humble way,you have become enlightened.
So true...🌼

Everything is sacred if we choose to see it that way! In fact, one of my most poweful awakening experiences happened while doing one of the most mundane tasks in the world: washing dishes. This was before Echart Tolle published TPN. I was so in the moment, my mind became blank and all of a sudden I had this wonderful physical sensation of well being and peace, and connection. It influenced me greatly, even though it lasted just an instant, a blink of an eye and it was gone. Then, it was back to washing the dishes.
Him laughing is so infectious, I feel so free rightnow
🦅 is calling
i receive your love
@Eckhart Tolle▫️ 🖐Wonderful Thanks and you
Sing your song in life's great symphony and allow others to join in with their own melody. We are all transformed by the vibrations of the whole! Just sing, sing your song! 🎶
Great question and he has a point about 'spiritual' people and the way they do often bore one to tears with their saintliness...
This is reassuring. Always good to be reminded of the simplicity of spirituality. Ah and breathe
That's why I don't follow these practices as a routine. Otherwise it will loose its appeal. I sometimes allow myself to dwell into my life story. But after sometime I start feeling discomfort due to mental chatter. Manytimes due to light hearted chatter too. Then I quiet my mind and practice presence and it feels very soothing. My muscle of presence is building up with time...💪💪☺️🙌
I trust Ariel to provide divine guidance with any needs I have on the physical plane and provide answers on how to meet those needs. And I know Ariel will also connect me with any fairies or nature spirits that wish to help me.
Thank you Jesus loves you please share this message today thanks 💞 😊 🙏
Indeed I love this message, spirituality is here and now
Eckart is the highlight of my day! ❤️
Thank you! Happy New Year, Eckhart, Kim!
This is my favorite 😁
You handled this well, Eckhart.
Have an extraordinary ordinary day, means noticing the lovely details in ordinary everyday things, and as a gauge to ensure spiritual practice is not forced, it should be effortless. Remember don't beat yourself up ... presence is there in an instant regardless of what happens before🙌💛
Ego loves specialness. It lives in a world of constant comparisons.
Pretty interesting from One Side to another and back again. Anything Is spiritual
you are never ''outside'' what created you''' much love [[Teesus]]]
That was so beautifully explained, thank you Eckhart, thank you universe ♥️🙏♥️🌏♥️🦋♥️🌈♥️
All problems can be Transmuted to Being for Wisdom to find the Best Solution.
Thank you Eckhart 🙏💜
Thanks for asking that special question.
He is so high
Even when you are very ill and know you will not be getting better, Ekheart that’s hard
Mind and body are not to be trusted. Spend your days living in opposition to these two deceivers and your healing will begin.
Thank you!
I Agree The Ordinary then Transforms to Extraordinary, But it is true too in my belief and experience that the Extraordinary then becomes the Ordinary. I think this is what this Gentleman had experienced (it can be quite Overpowering) BUT in need of Balance and letting the Energy 'Settle'. 🙏🙏🙏
So called ordinary life demands a heightened state of consciousness
seeing the recognition of Being in the eyes and then face of the eckhart and the questioner - if you need proof spirit/consciousness it is clear -but i expect that to see it you must already be aware of it ... what he (the eckhart) often says - "it is somewhat paradoxical. anyhow the most fulfilling post/video to date at this here and now... smiles all
Wow I've never seen Eckhart laugh that much it was great! Although I did get a little anxious for him, you know how when you laugh so hard you can't stop?
I enjoyed this video and absolutely excellent advice from Eckhart, it reminds me of the film Educating Rita where Rita is tired of her current life and says " there must be better songs to sing", much later in the film where Rita has lived a completely different life to the one she knew before Rita declares to the professor " I found a better song to sing " the professor replies "no you didn't find a better song, you simply found a different song to sing"
There are many paths to the top of the mountain and each and every path eventually and ultimately leads to the peak and when we all arrive at the peak one day the view will be exactly the same for each and every one of us, its only our journeys that are different.
If your path is a pleasant experience then enjoy every minute as much as you can but never kid yourself or more importantly try to kid anyone else you have found the one true path, because the moment you start to believe that your more lost than most.
I love you, und Schluß.
Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💜💙💚
Integration is key 🙏🏻❤️
Thank you Eckhart.
Beautiful
Brilliant, loved this one
Gratidão a este ser iluminado que ganhou meu coração ❤️👏👏
Thank you 🙏🏼❤️
Life is not in you without Life Himself Jesus Christ ! The Time is Short and the Door of Mercy for the Lost Sheep is closed soon.
As soon as it closes you’ll have to face eternal torment and isolation from any joy. Come Home while you still can !!
Love and forgiveness are the only purpose of human life. Any thought that doesn't serve devine love is meaningless.
Thankyou
