Eckhart Tolle on Balancing Acceptance and Manifestation

Eckhart Tolle explores the integration of present-moment acceptance with the pursuit of future goals. While acknowledging the importance of having goals and moving towards them, Eckhart Tolle highlights the necessity of not being continuously preoccupied with outcomes that differ from the present conditions. He explains that true acceptance does not hinder one from making changes or taking actions toward desired manifestations. Eckhart Tolle's message emphasizes the need for a balanced approach, reconciling the acceptance of what arises in the present with holding an image of what one wants to manifest.

About Eckhart:
Eckhart Tolle is widely recognized as one of the most inspiring and visionary spiritual teachers in the world today. With his international bestsellers, The Power of Now and A New Earth-translated into more than 50 languages-he has introduced millions to the joy and freedom of living life in the present moment. The New York Times has described him as “the most popular spiritual author in the United States,” and in 2011, Watkins Review (now Watkins Mind Body Spirit) named him “the most spiritually influential person in the world.”
Eckhart’s profound yet simple teachings have helped countless people around the globe experience a state of vibrantly alive inner peace in their daily lives. His teachings focus on the significance and power of Presence, the awakened state of consciousness, which transcends ego and discursive thinking. Eckhart sees this awakening as the essential next step in human evolution.

The timing of this is perfect. .Yesterday I found out my precious cavalier is dying of cancer . I was so sad and that sadness took me to a dark depressed state . It spiraled . Yes I was in shock. Understandably . But I was fighting what is and it only brought me sadness upon more sadness and then despair. This message helped me to just sit quiet with it this morning and accept that it is. My sweet dog needs to spend time with me in a peaceful state where energy of love is felt by her . Yesterday she was so upset by my tears and mood . So today , I rise again , but now I will focus on the now I have with her .

[@oliviacasino8888]

Yesterday because of circumstances going totally awry and my thwarted efforts to set them back on track to absolutely no avail, I went slightly berserk. In hindsight my ego being in total charge was having a field day. Upon reflection and pulling myself back from a meltdown of self destruction, today I am seeking Eckhart with the clear realisation that this life restructuring in the path of no ego is going to be for me a challenging and continuous road; although Eckhart makes it appear so appealing and simple. Keep at it, I say to myself…it’s not too late at 83.

[@lindap7719]

No, not too late at all! The path is long, difficult, & glacial paced for most of us. 🥰🌻

[@johngreen4683]

Hi Olivia, ultimately it's a long and continuous journey for us all, some people haven't yet gained your wisdom and they continue to pursue an El Dorado place where there is constant peace of mind. Our minds are emotional by nature are not designed for rational calm and peaceful acceptance of life as we our true selves are so there will always be occasional conflict between ourselves and our minds at various points throughout our journey. Reducing the frequency of the conflicts and the amount of time they affect our peace and happiness is as much as any of us can ever do, sounds to me like your doing more than OK overall 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@Battleganz]

A great hack that I discovered is that when you visualize you should only visualize yourself doing things that you can already do, with what you have and with minimal financial investment. Preferably free, or almost free.

Thank you, Eckhart. I find maintaining balance is not easy, but your teaching always brings me back to the center. I went into the extreme non-doing state for a while after the first awakening and slowly getting back into the life of conscious doing. I deeply appreciate this extremely well-timed video . It must be synchronicity. Love to all there is.

[@flowergirl7260]

Thank you🌹. Lately I've been feeling this pressure coming at me to manifest things, but right Now I just want to Be. It's kind of ironic that i was manifesting suffering over the idea of needing to manifest something.

[@imagbaby5]

I think I’ve been a lot better about this later. I’ve been much more accepting and loving of the journey rather than the outcome for spirituality and when I finally start to work on other goals I can accept the learning journey with them is the reward.

[@johngreen4683]

It's not really about being confident of the answer you will receive in life but more about not being afraid to ask the questions and having the humility to accept both the yeses and the no's with the very same respect and dignity. Always always have the courage to ask the question but never ever expect a yes or no, just accept whichever comes with good grace 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Can you explain to me, I don't understand. Isn't it only possible to have a goal in the future when the present moment is not enough for us?

[@BulentBasaran]

Good question. Remember that it is always now. Future goals come and go. In my relatively long life so far, I had many future goals. Some were achieved. Others not. I still have goals. And some of them will hopefully be met. Yet, they don't grab all of my attention. They don't drain all my energy. And I get surprised with new ideas, newer goals. I suspect that's your experience, too... I hope this helps a bit. A final note: trying to understand is alright. But, understanding is boundless and it comes when it comes. Until then, we still have all of this wonderous universe, this life to cherish and enjoy. Take care.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="45">0:45</a> Accept the present moment without losing your abilities to have goals. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="110">1:50</a> Set aside a few minutes (5 minutes) each day to focus on your desired manifestation. Then spend the rest of the day in the present moment, accept whatever the present moment brings (crucial to manifestation). This frees you of the ego. Non-acceptance traps you in the ego. 💪🏻🍇🚗🦅🤣🍑🍀⛈🪴🦒 <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="232">3:52</a> What is the case now can’t be anything else. There’s no doubt. It is. It’s dysfunctional to argue and resist. You can still take action to bring about whatever you prefer. But there is no antagonism between you and the present moment. No separation.

cash baby… 🤑💰

[@chiptowers1]

Let me break this down as I see it. Well this/that was a waste of time explanation into accepting what ever arises in the present moment because you have no control what arises in the present moment and therefore it's not your choice to accept the present moment or not. All you can do is locate to a present moment where those present moments entities arising are more to your satisfaction. To manifest something out of an undesirable present moment would be only fooling yourself because your manifestation attempts that you personally accept can never alter the entities present moment. All sound confusing, sure, but not as confusing as the teachers explanation for the unsuspecting. Listen to your EGO receive and send tool message service thats coming from your FORM imprinted knowledge going to your physical brain that works with Present Moment and evolve with it, not manifest false present moments in opposition. Evolve thee.
