Absolutely agree, we are not responsible for and have absolutely no control over the thoughts our minds chose to produce. Thinking on the other hand is a completely different situation, we have all the control in the world as to what thoughts we chose to pay attention to or chose to think about.
@@emilyjoansmith absolutely, its such a freeing feeling when we realise its not us producing the thoughts 😊 Much like the weather really, we can't choose what comes but we can most definitely choose if or how we let it effect our day. Accept what is Trust what will be, and Be grateful for everything Is my moto 👍👍👍👍👍
If you have a bad thought, repetitive thought, or a thought that makes you unhappy, all you have to say to yourself is "next thought please." Your mind will be immediately cleared for several minutes or longer. It's a very pleasant way to change the narrative in one's head. "Next thought please," brings needed silence to one's mind.
I'm beginning to realise the thoughts in my head are not even who I am. They are only the mind. The thoughts in my mind are meaningless, and nonsensical 99% of the time. As usual, it's another great talk by Eckhart! 😄
“Some changes look negative on the surface but you will soon realize that space is being created in your life for something new to emerge.” - Eckhart Tolle 🔮⚡️
That is really so true. I think about if I was born without my disability. Just that one tiny thing would make a huge difference. But not necessarily for the good. I would have went to different schools, had different friends, and totally different experiences. And even losing my job, had me moving and living in a place that I love a lot more than the place that I used to live. And I had no idea. I really wish everyone would get this..
this is obvious and in retrospect we are master story tellers. Something always comes along. Yet we must hold the evil doers accountable. that's a big one , Eckert is way too dispassionate
In my spiritual journey, I've discovered that this 'voice' in your head changes as you evolve and mature spiritually. The most common version of this voice is a very judgmental and criticizing one. However, as you continue to evolve through meditation, contemplation, and live a higher vibrational lifestyle this voice also changes. First, thoughts slow down considerably. I've been meditating for over 25 years and my mind isn't chaotic and agitated like it was in my youth. For example, there are long moments of silent observation rather than a disorganized and frenzied cacophony of random messages. Second, the nature and quality of your thoughts change. For me, it operates more as a utility, a useful observer; when I need to discern something, make an effort in planning something, or contemplate the nature of something. I no longer suffer thoughts of a negative, self-abusive nature - this energy has dissolved and dissipated years ago. I mention my observation of thoughts because your thoughts are a consequence of your vibrational state. Therefore, if you make it a point to live in a higher vibrational way (eat better, live in a peaceful environment, deal with pleasant happy people, express yourself honestly and regularly, exercise, abstain from any chemical substances that can bring your vibrational state down, and of course meditate daily), then you'll start to notice that the nature of your mind also transforms. Working on yourself holistically is the easiest path towards wholeness. Peace to anyone who reads this and finds this of value.
I agree partly. What about those who don’t have the resources you mention, or who are in a situation where they can‘t be around happy people etc. We can’t always change circumstances, but I believe Life gives us exactly what we have to work on. So we can surrender to what is..
It has improved my body image, mental health, anxiety, and procrastination. I just feel so balanced. Bless you for making this. Anyone reading this I send positive energy your way!
I am at the baked beans on toast stage. I had a terrible childhood, moved to many houses, about 40 in total. I have no money, little income, disabled, I just turned 38. My life isn't "good" per se at all! Even watching the first 2mins of this video, my mind already wondered off hahaha! Am I happy? Yeah kind of. Sometimes I cant even afford bread and a tin of beans so I go to bed early. But when, in the morning, I can make myself a nice plate of beans on toast... they taste so nice. Every mouthful is enjoyment, and I am grateful that at those times, I'm not hungry, so I can be happy. Sometimes anyway. Best wishes to all and thank you for reading my little waffle! Tat tvam asi.

I can understand you, friend. For those people who suffered a lot like you and me the things are more difficult. We have to deal with very concrete things. Survival
Eckhart is an ascended master in modernity, pointing the way inward. It's a journey where we don't follow anyone. We go alone, inside our own minds. We enter through the narrow gate. Rumi's door, he has been screaming to get in. Then he awakens and discovers, he already is there. They teach us to look inside our selves. To find the filters between the cosmos and our life. Thank you Eckhart.

Eckhart Tolle is really gold, diamond, platinum and all the valuables of the World. He has kept his teachings limited to his field of specialisation, which making people aware of non conceptual, about how to step out of mind. He is not adding any concepts to people's mind, even when present world scenario may demanding it from him, which could increase his buisness. He is in true sense helping people.

yes, he is a man of god, do you notice that he is not afraid? i think that even kings with armies, if they don't have god live in varying states of fear.
Whatever you make yours or try to own can be a great source of unhappiness - especially thoughts and emotions. Most of the suffering in the world doesn't _really_ touch us, as it is not "ours" on the experiential level
Your thoughts are the prison that keep you from being happy. You have made up your mind about what is right or wrong. Your beliefs are the same as words on a page, so you do not have to trust them. You can think of them however you want. The Eckhart Tolle video is the perfect representation of the true nature of consciousness. There is no separation between spaces or time or physical things. Everything exists in one place, in one place and one time. We are all connected through a single consciousness.
@@JBRitchie8 When you can see your thoughts, then it means that your mind is becoming a clear mirror for your true Self. We all have thoughts and we always want to stop them, but sometimes we can't. So we just need to get present when we notice that we are thinking and train ourselves to be present over and over again.
@@JBRitchie8 When you are present in your life, it means that you are aware of the things that happen to you. It doesn't necessarily mean that you are happy about what is happening to you, but just that you are aware of it. When you are aware of your life, then you can choose what is most important to you and what you want to focus your attention upon. The best way to learn this is with meditation! Watch my videos and short videos about meditation and learn how to meditate:) Trust me, its worth it, but it takes time to master.
You know it can be so easy to over-estimate how far you’ve come in your awakening journey. Just because I can focus pretty well on the present moment in my regular sitting meditations, I thought for a while that this teaching on “the voice in your head” in particular wasn’t that relatable any more. Well, I was wrong. I’ve just realized that this recurring irritation that arose in me on weekends was definitely out of unwitnessed thoughts. So was my indecision about big and small matters. How amazing Eckhart is telling things that sound right on the nose in my situation.
😁 This reminds me of the difference between "being your thoughts" and "having thoughts." Once you get this principle, you'll naturally want to develop your self-awareness because self-awareness gives us the power to better choose our thoughts. Hmm, maybe I'll create content on this topic for my own audience... but this inspires me to continue developing my self-awareness, even more, so thank you!
Listening to Eckhart for hours at a time and practicing what he teaches has helped me feel such peace and joy. I've changed the way I see my self...I didn't have an inner self except for a child I needed to nurture until a meditation about 2 weeks ago when I finally found my self, I cried tears of joy. His work is so profound.
Eternal gratitude to you, dear Eckhart. But, most importantly, thank you Now. I remember reading about the noise in the mind from one of his books. Its like the fan or the air-conditioner that is running in the house and we don't really realize the constant sound it makes in the background. We come to know of its noise, only when the power goes off or when we turn it off and there is silence. 🙏🙏

@@soho1081 identifying with your inner world is the source of suffering. We are in fact life itself. We are conscious. And by we not the person, not the little you that the mind creates, but the life itself.
The other day I found a letter from the municipality in my hallway. It had been lying there for a while, but thought is was an unimportant letter. As a finally opened it said there was a building infringement on my plot (because of a complaint of a neighbor) and that I was invited to the municipality to discuss this in 3 days time, without any further details. As just sold my house the timing for this was very inconvenient. I normally don't stress out, but somehow this caused a lot of stress. I couldn't sleep, felt anxious all the, there was just no way to stop my thoughts. The voice in head kept telling story after story. When the of the appointment finally arrived, I felt exhausted and terrified at the same time, only to discover the official was in fact a very kind person, and that I couldn't be prosecuted for the infringement. Such a classic example of how your mind can play tricks on you. I'm aware of Echkart work for years, but somehow just could find the off switch.
I have a voice in my head that is mostly trying to make me sad and don’t like myself.. but it can also be positive when something nice is going to happend. But mostly it’s having fun with talking bad about me. Sometimes it even feels good to think bad about myself… like it’s addictive
(What Is vs. Mental narrative about What Is) = Unhappiness Reconcile yourself to the inevitability of what is now, because the future will never come! Thanks Eckhart. 👍🏆🕊🤓🌷💯🌲📯
It is from our current understanding (or misunderstanding, as the case may be) that action and reactions arise. Among the reactions are thoughts and feelings...and so too unhappiness/misery/suffering.
As a nature and sound mystic for me the most effective way to calm the voice in my head is just to admire the beauty of a landscape in the „here and now“ or to practice retreats into the inner and outer silence as a hermit in peacefull contemplation. Also to explore regularly the healing power of self made sound and music helps a lot.
Seems trying to be aware doesn't help make it happen, just let it. The frustration in life, and the pain body can sometimes seem like an inescapable force, listening to Eckharts words will help put in the consciousness needed to distance the minds almost constant background words.
Well said. Our imagination about the current moment is the only thing that matters. Maybe it's the cause of why some people are happy and the others aren't. Just be in the present moment and happiness, joy and stillness will be given to you.

I love Eckhart this man has helped me with my life so much. The Power of Now was a life changing book. I went to see him in Dublin it was a splendid evening.
Nice video. My personal suggestion. 60,000 thoughts a day. Detox the mind.Reduce negative thoughts with a simple practice. Your breath is directly related to your mind [brain] causing negative thoughts-anxiety. For a relaxed life sit on a chair, back straight, eyes closed and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight your thoughts. Slowly the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Day or night, when taking a walk, when reading, on the phone, before sleep etc sit or lie down and observe your breath. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a good life. Avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Best wishes Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.
I wish Eckhart would do a session on homesickness. I've moved out of my parents' house at the relatively late age of 32, and I find it very dreary, even though I have no problem with living alone. But I'm lonely and don't allow people near me, so I create my own misery.
Hey sister :) The sense of loneliness is in you, but is not you. It is a sense, and it is observed by Consciousness. Consciousness canot be lonely, it is All There Is. Watch and observe. Be kind to yourself, speak to yourself sweetly. You are worth it. God bless you friend :)

@@soho1081 what he was implying is that we should not let our feelings and thoughts dictate our happiness, or rather, realize that you are NOT your feelings & thoughts, but you are the awareness, the space in which they happen. when this is realized, every fleeting thought and emotions becomes less significant and you will be much more peaceful, brother. :)
I practiced this today in the line at the supermarket. Waited patiently in line for person in line taking a long time. Cashier after checking me out said” thank you for being here”. I think she felt my vibes? Far fetched? Is it contagious?
❤ Anger arises because things do not happen the way our ego wants them to happen, because something or someone prevents us from fulfilling a desire or need, or prevents us from enjoying what we are enjoying at that moment, or prevents us from getting out of an undesirable situation or condition.
I have spent 5 YEARS to come to this point where i m now, thanks to everyone and everything who made me to be this❤❤❤❤❤❤ ...we are always talking about keeping silent the mind to be peacfull ,but this not easy . Energy has power over the mind ,we first have to clean the negatife energy in our energy field and this is actually very easy ,sometimes when you feel down dont follow the mind instead feel the energy and putt all your atention to that point ,so it dissapears ,do that every time and it dies ...you dont have to keep yourself beasy with the mind just put atention on this negatife energy coming up..at this point the mind stops keeping you beasy right away ..this is how it worked for me ...it is like a miracle .
How to consciously be aware and let go of unconscious attachments. There is this resistance within that can be felt but cannot place where it keeps coming from.
Realising and actually accepting you are not voice in your head (thoughts) and it' really is not you who is producing the thoughts is in my opinion the biggest and most important step towards find peace with and freedom from the mind.
8 min mark Arguing with The Isness of this moment imposing a narrative on this moment This Moment is as it IS You recognize the Inevitable NOW. Missing the Isness of Things If unhappiness arises is it from the situation or how my mind is interpreting the situation . Even if action is possible and necessary then you can take action. ALLOW THIS MOMENT to bE AS It IS...
both, my mind interprets things due to my situation. I find it hard to stop the voice and found it difficult to even listen to the video and be attentive. My mind believes the voice is useful and it has indeed proven itself useful sometimes by daydreaming and ruminating of the past but I miss more than if I was present yet awareness is not enough for me to do that
I've been stuck in this dilemma. I deal with anxiety and depression. Many tours of psych hospitals and terrible treatments. My NOISE in my head, thinks it's problem solving. If I block this, panic and guilt steps in with ANOTHER voice screaming, "You're not taking care of business and issues. You must keep pushing!" And on and on until I'm overwhelmed and sick. I don't sleep well. Tons of meds and I've funded MANY psychologist's retirement plans. I try to get into the moment to free myself. I walk in an anguish filled fog. I study and continue to work on myself. I'm exhausted and tired of living in fear while my time here passes rapidly. I had to write this. Any input will be taken seriously. Thanks, and peace to everyone.
I kept listening to Eckhart morning and at night everyday. He calmed my mind and slowed down my thinking. So I can think clearly and experience peace. I'm still learning but I'm not depressed or lost or anxious anymore.
This is very interesting. Now that I am aware of my thoughts I repeat to myself: "This is the voice of my mind". And then I wonder: "what I should think about?" 🤔🤔

True brother 😊
There was an AHA moment for me in these words. Thank You! much love with you
So baked beans and toast is the key! Thank you for the lesson Eckhart 😁
The other day I found a letter from the municipality in my hallway. It had been lying there for a while, but thought is was an unimportant letter. As a finally opened it said there was a building infringement on my plot (because of a complaint of a neighbor) and that I was invited to the municipality to discuss this in 3 days time, without any further details. As just sold my house the timing for this was very inconvenient. I normally don't stress out, but somehow this caused a lot of stress. I couldn't sleep, felt anxious all the, there was just no way to stop my thoughts. The voice in head kept telling story after story. When the of the appointment finally arrived, I felt exhausted and terrified at the same time, only to discover the official was in fact a very kind person, and that I couldn't be prosecuted for the infringement. Such a classic example of how your mind can play tricks on you. I'm aware of Echkart work for years, but somehow just could find the off switch.
Wow ❤ this is how magical the mind is. Thank you Mr. Eckhart!
I have a voice in my head that is mostly trying to make me sad and don’t like myself.. but it can also be positive when something nice is going to happend. But mostly it’s having fun with talking bad about me. Sometimes it even feels good to think bad about myself… like it’s addictive
Listen to Eckhart everyday and you'll get well.
(What Is vs. Mental narrative about What Is) = Unhappiness
Reconcile yourself to the inevitability of what is now, because the future will never come!
Thanks Eckhart. 👍🏆🕊🤓🌷💯🌲📯
Thank you teacher, you are great, thanks very much. You helped a lot. I am sick recently. But I feel better using your methods. ❤
Thank you, Mr. Tolle. Your teachings are always timely and relevant. Peace and love. 🙏
Thank you Mr Tolle, you are FANTASTIC!! 🙏🍃💜🍃💛🍃💚
It was a very insightful speech. He's indeed eloquent. The information which he gives people is so practical.
Yesss! So true! So liberating! Thank you very much , God! 🙂🙏❤
Thank you Eckart! You really changed my life! ❤
It is from our current understanding (or misunderstanding, as the case may be) that action and reactions arise. Among the reactions are thoughts and feelings...and so too unhappiness/misery/suffering.
As a nature and sound mystic for me the most effective way to calm the voice in my head is just to admire the beauty of a landscape in the „here and now“ or to practice retreats into the inner and outer silence as a hermit in peacefull contemplation. Also to explore regularly the healing power of self made sound and music helps a lot.
Extremely important.
Thank you so much Eckhart.
Yes.. For this blessing, I am truly grateful.
Seems trying to be aware doesn't help make it happen, just let it. The frustration in life, and the pain body can sometimes seem like an inescapable force, listening to Eckharts words will help put in the consciousness needed to distance the minds almost constant background words.
Gratitude Eckhart Tolle this is a very beautiful Ah ! 💖💖💖 Blessings
Well said.
Our imagination about the current moment is the only thing that matters.
Maybe it's the cause of why some people are happy and the others aren't. Just be in the present moment and happiness, joy and stillness will be given to you.

I love Eckhart this man has helped me with my life so much. The Power of Now was a life changing book. I went to see him in Dublin it was a splendid evening.
Nice video. My personal suggestion. 60,000 thoughts a day. Detox the mind.Reduce negative thoughts with a simple practice. Your breath is directly related to your mind [brain] causing negative thoughts-anxiety. For a relaxed life sit on a chair, back straight, eyes closed and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight your thoughts. Slowly the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Day or night, when taking a walk, when reading, on the phone, before sleep etc sit or lie down and observe your breath. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a good life. Avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Best wishes Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.
We all learn from this as we move on...
wauuuu the best spiritual teacher I've ever heard thanks Eckhart love you
Thank you Eckhart 🙏❤️
Thx. I need it today more than ever.
Thank You Eckhart 💗💗💗🙏
I feel like letting the voice speak and listening to it helps me
I wish Eckhart would do a session on homesickness. I've moved out of my parents' house at the relatively late age of 32, and I find it very dreary, even though I have no problem with living alone. But I'm lonely and don't allow people near me, so I create my own misery.
Hey sister :) The sense of loneliness is in you, but is not you. It is a sense, and it is observed by Consciousness. Consciousness canot be lonely, it is All There Is. Watch and observe. Be kind to yourself, speak to yourself sweetly. You are worth it. God bless you friend :)

What a predatory p.o.s.... someone is hurting, and your answer is to think "hey this might be a easy/vulnerable person to scam"? Get lost 'bro'.
I'm like that don't like people I don't know why it is 🤔😎
Expert in mind reading. Depending upon our thinking as well Sir 🙏
The only voice in our heads should be Eckhart teaching us the Art of Being.
Only voice should be Jesus. Us talking to v him, asking for guidance, listening to his voice
A built in warning system to get you to reassess what it is you need, not want. Sometimes we have to hit bottom to rise
Babaji you just solved something in my head. You unknoted one knot Eakhartji ❤❤
Enadu sir
WhT is it
Thank you very much, every talk is helpful :-)
Thank you so much 🙏✨💖

nobody matters then? we are bumping meat puppets
@@soho1081 what he was implying is that we should not let our feelings and thoughts dictate our happiness, or rather, realize that you are NOT your feelings & thoughts, but you are the awareness, the space in which they happen. when this is realized, every fleeting thought and emotions becomes less significant and you will be much more peaceful, brother. :)
Thank you for all your video's. The way you explain and clarify things is of great help to me. And I love your humor. 😊💕🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for keeping me motivated 😘 I love you and God bless you more and more and more 🙌
I practiced this today in the line at the supermarket. Waited patiently in line for person in line taking a long time. Cashier after checking me out said” thank you for being here”. I think she felt my vibes? Far fetched? Is it contagious?
❤ Anger arises because things do not happen the way our ego wants them to happen, because something or someone prevents us from fulfilling a desire or need, or prevents us from enjoying what we are enjoying at that moment, or prevents us from getting out of an undesirable situation or condition.
Thank you Eckhart, as always so deeply wise.
I have spent 5 YEARS to come to this point where i m now, thanks to everyone and everything who made me to be this❤❤❤❤❤❤ ...we are always talking about keeping silent the mind to be peacfull ,but this not easy . Energy has power over the mind ,we first have to clean the negatife energy in our energy field and this is actually very easy ,sometimes when you feel down dont follow the mind instead feel the energy and putt all your atention to that point ,so it dissapears ,do that every time and it dies ...you dont have to keep yourself beasy with the mind just put atention on this negatife energy coming up..at this point the mind stops keeping you beasy right away ..this is how it worked for me ...it is like a miracle .
How to consciously be aware and let go of unconscious attachments. There is this resistance within that can be felt but cannot place where it keeps coming from.
Your teaching is the best thing i got in my life ♥️
I have never been more scared in life. Not because of the future, which doesnt exist, but due to the chaos in the mind and pain in the body.
Look up Dr. John Sarno
Check out Dan Mohler on TH-cam! Please
you'll get there, just keep on it
really. I’m at the worst point in my life. So young too. The mind can really mess things up even if your life isn’t that bad at all.
Please try Vipassana meditation
Thank you great master suffering is just a thought
Whoever is reading this, just know that things will get better and I truly mean it by my heart 💗
Thank you Echkart 🙏🙏❤❤
Thank you
Realising and actually accepting you are not voice in your head (thoughts) and it' really is not you who is producing the thoughts is in my opinion the biggest and most important step towards find peace with and freedom from the mind.
Doing things without narratives you are free of unhappiness.
God bless him..
8 min mark Arguing with The Isness of this moment imposing a narrative on this moment This Moment is as it IS You recognize the Inevitable NOW. Missing the Isness of Things If unhappiness arises is it from the situation or how my mind is interpreting the situation . Even if action is possible and necessary then you can take action. ALLOW THIS MOMENT to bE AS It IS...
Don't give all the power to your mind to control you. Take charge of your own life with positivity and happiness
Excellent explanation and very helpful in realizing what is
We can be our own worst enemy and critic. You have to be your own best friend and hero.
both, my mind interprets things due to my situation. I find it hard to stop the voice and found it difficult to even listen to the video and be attentive. My mind believes the voice is useful and it has indeed proven itself useful sometimes by daydreaming and ruminating of the past but I miss more than if I was present yet awareness is not enough for me to do that
Thank you I appreciate your teachings very much. ❤️🙏
Music to my ears... 🎼🎶🎶🎸
THANK YOU SIR 💓💓💓💓💓💓
I love him so much
Beans on toast...being is the bread of life
🦋
No....Eckhart we love you!!!
hair cut looking wow amazing
Lovely man. I am expressing my appreciation to your beautiful explanation.
Thanks for reminding me that i love beans on toast! I haven't had this in years.
I've been stuck in this dilemma. I deal with anxiety and depression. Many tours of psych hospitals and terrible treatments.
My NOISE in my head, thinks it's problem solving. If I block this, panic and guilt steps in with ANOTHER voice screaming, "You're not taking care of business and issues. You must keep pushing!"
And on and on until I'm overwhelmed and sick. I don't sleep well. Tons of meds and I've funded MANY psychologist's retirement plans.
I try to get into the moment to free myself. I walk in an anguish filled fog.
I study and continue to work on myself. I'm exhausted and tired of living in fear while my time here passes rapidly.
I had to write this.
Any input will be taken seriously.
Thanks, and peace to everyone.
@The Dream Medium you look like a scammer. What are you trying to sell?
I kept listening to Eckhart morning and at night everyday. He calmed my mind and slowed down my thinking. So I can think clearly and experience peace. I'm still learning but I'm not depressed or lost or anxious anymore.
I know I am a year late, but....have you tried the Workbook Lessons of A Course in Miracles?
And sometimes it is simply not being ok with what "is"
Amazing he has helped me to transform so much
I really needed this.
That’s so true !
Love it! Thank you 💗
This is very interesting. Now that I am aware of my thoughts I repeat to myself: "This is the voice of my mind". And then I wonder: "what I should think about?" 🤔🤔
Something positive 🤩🤩
He is brilliant!!
