Finding the True Essence of You | Eckhart Tolle Explains

[@fida6166]

I am so thankful that life brought me to you Eckhart.

[@Lv_multi]

Eckhart says ,,u are life itself,,life situation brought u here

[@ObsidianCrocodile]

He has brought beauty into our lives, beauty in the most basic things and In ourselves, this is the best gift any human can give another ❤❤❤

[@graemehancocks4171]

Amen to that 🙏

[@Sir-zl2nq]

modern day prophet! ❤ Amen!!!

[@Sir-zl2nq]

Geoff thompson is another blessing! ❤

[@joemusicman64]

Try to find this on TV. This guy saved me. Saved me from what? My ego. I don't engage in arguments anymore, don't watch the news. I simply don't find it useful anymore. I found this video VERY useful. Die ego, die!!! lol. Eckhart if you're reading this I have read The Power of now and New Earth maybe a dozen times. I'm reading New Earth right now. Why do I keep re-reading them? Because my ego keeps wanting to take over and these books raise my awareness to stop it. This all leads to less misery in my life. Thank you!

[@lizbrown9553]

FANTASTIC WAY OF DESCRIBING THE TRUTH BEHIND THIS COMMITTED WAY OF LIFE ..I HAVE TO KEEP INVOLVED WITH THESE TEACHINGS BY LISTENING TO E.T. ON UTUBE❤. MAYBE I SHOULD OPEN MY BOOKS,TOO❤❤❤❤

[@carolwhitley5005]

“There’s a defect in the mirror!” 😆 Oh Eckhart, how we all love you!

[@RenateGunther-kr9gd]

I'll be listening to this talk every day, to remind myself just how painful the prison of form identification can be, and how liberating it feels to discover the deeper self. Thanks again, Eckhart, for this beautiful teaching 😊❤

[@glpetit]

Not sure if you are familiar with Tarot readings, but awakening is like the Tower card .. it’s a destructive path to uncover your essence as Tolle just said 🤗

[@Laviniab]

Yes! I was born with a physical disability and i always felt life gave me no choice but to let go of material identity 😅 I am 26 now and after so many searching i feel very realised spiritually ❤️‍🔥

[@ObsidianCrocodile]

You are beautiful inside and out Lavinia 🌸

[@krishnamowar9950]

The gift of disability has enabled you to acquire an insight that people get in an advanced age, if at all. ❤

[@GamingCore609]

So ID’d with you, in a different form 😃

[@VeronikaLederer]

Blessed you are. Love. ❤

[@epicbrowndragon]

It’s amazing what one can do with disabilities. In my youth I enjoyed a healthy body and enjoyed weightlifting. After a car accident, for years, I would cry myself to sleep from the pain. I’m an ‘old’ man now 😊 50 years, and lift weights again - pain free - (for the most part) * even have a health channel journaling my experience The thoughts of doubt and discouragement were definitely there…

[@MariaGonzalez-bb1fo]

Experiencing the unexpected recent passing of my 18yr old sister was a catalyst for the death of my ego. It “knocked me so hard” that it felt like “the ego was knocked out of me.” Death became real. Her leaving this earth in body form has taught me that we are not form just like Eckhart says. I am human so I have human tendencies and feel pain. But I am working on not identifying with “pain body” because I know her true essence is still alive. Thank you Eckhart for your teachings 🤍

[@rezagatchpazian977]

Find death, before death finds you. Meister Eckhart you are amazingly simple, and simply AMAZING. ❤

[@blindianajones]

I have a disability, my sight has been reducing over time. About two years ago, I was hit by what you could call the start of an awakening, which now I translate to letting my identity die while I move toward the essence identity. Appreciate the mention of disabilities here because I dont ever hear that spoken about in this context.

[@tilldxb]

Prayers for all 🙏💐

[@kalyanipatel9088]

@blindanajones even i was impressed by disabilities being included in Eckhart's talk. this was very good indeed, will help a lot of souls.

[@JamesSheffer]

So FUNNY! The KZbin Ads that interfered with Eckart's explanation of Essence vs Form identity were an excellent demonstration of exactly what he has shared. I'm grateful to hear his explanation of how I may live.

[@shevawnprather7162]

Feel good and love yourself from the inside out, not compared to others. In truth, other opinions are just that, their egoic expressions, but they are not you. This is your life and your journey on this planet. Take care of you, enjoy all of life’s gifts and live life to the fullest. Thank you and many blessings Eckhart. 🙏

[@Devi_JK_11]

Sometimes people lose everything external by believing they don't deserve anything. Then they find peace in having nothing but their soul.

[@charleslantz5242]

That’s where I’m at

[@tothemoon8465]

me too kind of... I neglected my soul for so long getting a career. Now I must reconnect with my self before I can move on.

[@littlewillowlinda]

Interesting way to put it and makes me feel a little better, thank you

[@Aed-Adlan]

The strong belief I had that I was not worthy, I almost self-annihilated myself because of it. But by God, through that self-destruction, I saw my soul! And I saw a True Light in the Spirit’s eyes, when I starred at them with very life in a situation of life or death! And I saw God! And again, I saw my soul! God is the Greatest, And He is the Most Good! Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Ashadu an La illaha IlaAllah!

[@dmitrybuldakov3554]

Beautifully said, thank you! 🙏🏻💜

[@rogerlin9602]

18:10 Find death before death finds you. Find that in you that is beyond death. Find essence identity. Ego identity dies. Form is still there, but identification isn't there. Thanks Eckhart. 1 November 2023.🐘🌱🦆💖🎁🙉💝

[@wiewiorka_ojoj]

Without doing the meditation we can only believe in what Eckhart says. Only meditation can help us to know it and feel it ❤

[@ujjwaladiya2471]

true

[@fereshtaakhlaqi2119]

Eckart you are the best! all your words are diamond , so valuable. thank you for sharing it with us

[@ema-e7u]

When I was 12 years old, I would get much closer to that "essence." I would ask myself, "Who am I?" and I would experience it very profoundly. It wasn't like thinking about it, it was a very real and intense state of being. But, to a part of me (now I guess that was the ego), this state of being was very scary, so I would stop it immediately. I couldn't handle experiencing it for longer than 5-10 seconds, I felt like I was going to go insane or die because it was completely different from how I would feel in my everyday life. It was suddenly like a tornado of awareness, consciousness, energy - I can't describe it, but it was very, very intense. One of my fears was that that's what dying will feel like. I don't know why I was convinced of that. And I (my ego, I guess) was scared to feel that way when I die. So I had these practices with myself, when I would get alone, I'd ask myself "Who am I?" until this state of being emerged, just to face the fear and to stop being afraid of it. This is what I was trying to achieve. But I could never get to a point where I wasn't scared anymore, it was scary every time. And at the same time, to a part of me, it was very liberating - suddenly nothing mattered, and I wasn't thinking, I was KNOWING that everything I thought I knew was just an illusion. There weren't thoughts like "Okay, I'm aware now, everything is an illusion, this is who I actually am", it wasn't like that. It was an intense state of being and knowing this without thinking about it, it was experiencing this knowledge, like a complete awareness of everything in me and around me. It wasn't like viewing it through the mind, it was really experiencing that state of being. Another fear I had was that if I continued to live with this awareness, I wouldn't be able to function normally. I would go insane. I also had moments when I would "freeze" in the middle of doing something, usually showering, and I couldn't move because my body felt like it wasn't mine and it didn't belong to me. It was so scary I couldn't move until I could come back to my normal state of being. Now that I'm 29, I wish I could experience it on such a deep level again. Whenever I ask myself that question now, I do get some glimpses of that state of being, but I can't reach the deeper levels. I wish I could be in that profound state again and experience it like I used to.

[@gertraudbalzer4087]

About 6 years ago I got challenged through very difficult situations - all this brought me near (body) death - in the end it brought me to "ego dead" and to your teaching......I'm sooooo thankful for this grace .....❤ (from Vienna)

[@pamchesler242]

I am so happy that you came through this situation and in touch with Eckhart… I had a near death experience myself back in 2020 a severe allergic reaction, which was very unexpected and I ended up in the emergency room and I remember about two or three months later my dog died unexpectedly, and the suffering brought me exactly 2 Eckhart first and the power of now and that’s where I began my awakening process it wasn’t something that I was thinking about. It just occurred naturally. I basically felt like I couldn’t take being the old me, which was very ego centered, and that I had to delve into who I really wasn’t all the shadows in the demons that were still there inside me I had to confront. I have explored so many spiritual teachers, but nobody has ever resonated with me more than a Eckhart… and now my 24 year old daughter is reading his book. I have so much gratitude towards this man he has helped so many people. I am happy you (and I) were two of them! 💯💯💯❤❤❤

There is Grace, behind every Disaster. What an insight. Your wisdom astounds me Meister. Period❤

[@sevi4492]

"De emphasizing your Form identity"!! It requires enough Presence, the Formless, the True Essence identity!! Thank you Eckhart!! 🙏 Jai GuruDev 💖

[@SilverCello]

This is such a profound video. As I'm approaching the beginnings of senior hood, and dealing with the daily onset of outside noise that invades our well-being every day, Prescence is the key to survival which sadly the rest of society has not found. Maintaining Presecence allows us to prepare for what is to come-the inevitable. "Find Death before Death finds you."

[@jbananda4690]

Wow, I’ve never heard Eckhart mention Gurdjieff before, the Rascal Saint. I love how he ties in so many teachings from different mystics.

[@sunnyseacat6857]

Go within. Release attachment to the ego and continue going within as much as possible.

[@ksenitafanrich1023]

Dear Eckhart is one big open heart.

[@Offnrunnen1624]

Now I know why I have been letting go of opinions & debates. I am free and it feels so good Than you Eckhart ✨🙏✨♥️✨

[@philwyatt2176]

Thanks Eckhart - a delightful gem/ Super human with such an entertaining ease of grace... Blessings 🌈

[@EckhartTolle]

Thank you for your support.

[@veraintuizione6497]

VERY true.🙏 Every word of this teaching is pure truth, said in truth and permeated by TRUTH in an (apparent) world of liars. They don't even do it on purpose, many are not aware that they are lying anyway they do. We will leave everything. We will leave everything we believed to be indispensable. We will carry with us only what we have donated which will echo for eternity if only to avoid stepping on a small ant on the sidewalk. ❤ You might as well resign or surrender, as you wish, NOW to the good of this boundless and loving PRESENCE that holds up the entire Universe 🙏 So grateful 💓🙏✨✨🌺

[@lolaandriese9194]

❤ YOUR SENSE OF HUMOR IN BETWEEN 😊 THANK YOU ...

Wow..life knocks so hard that ego gets knocked out of you..

[@midnightblue2893]

Thanks for this message Eckhart! 💜

[@matthewscopelite5303]

I would like to visit Canada someday, the main purpose being to have the privilege of becoming a member of the audience at one of these lectures

[@m11w888]

I think presence or happiness, it comes easy when your not trying to attain it looking for it, instead it comes in the simple moments out with friends, family people you connect with, could be as simple as watching a movie in the cinema, travaling the world prephaps venturing into a new country. Its when we try to understand with the mind it becomes this confusing thing when presence is simple, this is just what I understand on it

[@db8799]

When a soap bubble breaks, what is the loss? The same space is there, minus the gloss ! The Self exists with form and without...

[@dmitrybuldakov3554]

love this ❤ may I quote? 🙏🏻☺️

[@db8799]

Go right ahead.. Your every thought is a trance...a spell...brought upon Awareness...which is peace Itself. In Pure Awareness there is no diversity whatsoever... @@dmitrybuldakov3554

Beautiful teaching. Thank you so much, Eckhart. Peace and love! 🙏

[@christopherh9897]

Great video. Definitely one of my favorite Non-duality teachers. The comment below says it all.

[@SarahRejsa-oi6bq]

When there is loss in your life, your heart can break open and get stuck into the open position. If your heart remains "broke open" it can fill up with love, more love than you can ever imagine! The love can come pouring into your heart when it gets "broke open." 🤗😀💗💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

[@DianeO-369]

Thank you, I now understand 'why' the 'who am I' came out of the blue ... it happened to me just the same way ... and an opening to realizing identifying with form versus your essence ... ❤Peace comes in identifying with our essence❤ No ego form identifying, what a relief!!! The sooner we come to this understanding, the sooner we will feel peaceful❤

[@SarahRejsa-oi6bq]

I'm so thankful that I found you! 😊💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

[@carospereman3537]

Finding the true essence vid. Losing everything and still having peace. Since I just watched "how the grinch stole xmas" this is exactly what happened to the whos in whoville. They didnt have anything on xmas morning yet awoke to singing and happiness : D Im thinking Dr. Suess was an Eckhart Tolle fan.

[@dekogjorgjiev4893]

How wonderful ❤️ Thank you Eckhart ❤️

[@keatedean]

I have been on a binge of your teachings Eckhart, thank you so much for helping me better understand the nature of presence and for being a light for all of us to look up to as an example of profound humility.

Glad you enjoyed it.

[@BanyanTreeWisdom]

I don't have words to explain the wisdom of the Guru. This talk shows you an illuminated path to real Life which makes the Ego form disappear. 🙏🙏

[@rogerlin9602]

12:21 “I am the most miserable sinner.” This is a big egoic form. It may be bigger than saying, “I am the most saintly person ever lived.” Start with the little things. Let it go. Who cares who is right? Let essence arise. Thanks Eckhart. 1 November 2023.🎢🎆😎😇🤡🏘🍁🐘🍮🍦

[@MarichuTORRES-o2d]

The totalityof his teaching. My respect to you Sir, every time i listen to you it open my eyes to Being, the unforgotten self that covered by the ego❤❤..

[@frankieu2598]

From who you are to what you are, perhaps. In my class I’ve told my young students, “You are what you do, and what you don’t do!” (I was always attempting to get my students to put in some extra effort in all they would do, especially homework 😂!)

[@TheMediumChannel]

Gurdjieff was definitely an interesting teacher. I transcend form identity through presence of course. In my meditation I seek to get so present as to find the spaces of non-existence within existence (or “the void”) as reality is energy or “wave” and there are always crests and troughs, like sound is actually not consistent but rather there are troughs of silence within the sounds. If you can get so present to lose self identity and experience the interplay of reality versus non-reality or form versus void which happens many times per second then you begin to know God, or Spirit, or The Quantum Field and can transcend (without losing) form identity to discover true identity.

[@Ozman676]

May God bless you in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.

[@didivredeveldt889]

"The only way for you to find death before death finds you is for life to knock you so hard that the ego gets knocked out of you."

[@TaniaMLewis]

Wow!

[@carolf9302]

I'm remembering, as a small child, looking at my hand and the rest of me and feeling separate from it. It seemed to be a foreign vessel. I remember dreaming of a life that I'd had no exposure to for the dream to manifest from and I wondered maybe it was a past life memory. Or something in DNA memory, Idk. When gradeschool age, maybe 7 or 8, I was lying in the front yard grassy ditch, looking up at the starry sky, and I felt the oneness with all very profoundly. I've called upon God to pull me up out of deep despair and came shooting up surrounded in a bright white light... walked into a Target and had the sense that I knew everyone and loved them and wanted to reach out and touch their hair, but knew they would likely not know me so I refrained. I feel blessed to have had several other experiences with the divine essence.

[@xtraterrestriiial-love]

You know what? I just watched the new „horror movie“ called : THE SUBSTANCE. After the show I couldn‘t stop asking myself about what the message was… your explanation of form and ego just summed it up perfectly.

[@ushaacharya2957]

Thank you Ekhart ❤

[@AlanaKay-ml5cl]

When we trade our ego or form identity for our true identity, we become connected to the unified field which is the source of all intelligence. It’s like trading your smaller self for your bigger self. It is tricky to know the difference. Some peoples form identity almost mimics their authentic self

[@TDre-r5p]

How does it feel like to be connected to the source of all intelligence? I always struggled to understand that part. How do you know when you really have reached that level? Thank you my friend :)

[@RobertJohnson-gj3cl]

Unconscious fear of death separates mind body giving birth to an ideal image ego a personal fantasy. To participate in your true essence requires overcoming the fear. Yes there is much in the understanding of this unitive knowledge manifesting from out of a new awareness, the awareness of Absolute truth.

[@daniellejones6339]
