Is Your Awakening Taking Too Long? | Eckhart Tolle Teachings

"-Master, how long does it take for one to attain enlightenment? - 15, 20 years. - And if one is in a hurry? - 25, 30."

Yesterday, after being full of thought, I suddenly kind of gave up and went aware of the present moment. It was a big shift, such a miracle. Then, the following days were full of peace, joy and love to everything I paid attention to. There was no future, no fear. I awake. Unfortunately, today I have been trapped into thought and ego. But I feel different now. Now im somehow more aware than before. I feel something big that wants to come trough me. Eckhart's videos and forum really helps. Sending love to everyone who is in this path.

[@mineapple6726]

Thank you for your comment Francesco, it helped me to uplift my spirits a little bit... 🙏

[@words4dyslexicon]

are we aware of what, how we feel in this moment that's here now..? I can pray to be aware of what, how I'm feeling in this moment, pray for this moment to let go of tense, anxious thoughts.. prayer in the moment can outshine worry.. 🙏💜🕯💧🌱🐾👣🌿🌎🕊

[@spir5102]

I am 74 years old, and I just commented to my son that it takes so long to not have racing, egoic thoughts. This video helped. In eckhart's book, he says when these thoughts arise, just recognize it as the ego and smile. That helps a lot.

[@VG-rj8pn]

Faults that's only one small aspect you have to do some true healing of the Mind work which Eckhart totally knows nothing about being in the present moment doesn't do you any good you need mental honesty beyond what he knows about the big problem is all you new agers think you're the avant-garde and you are nothing you're not even beginning to be honest let alone heal your own minds you ignore the people who have already ascended because you think they're going to walk up to you tossing lilies on the ground in bare feet and white robes your ignorance is very evident and while you try to give counsel to other people that you think need to hear your advice you ignore the advice of the ascended humans on this planet completely

[@jenmdawg]

I don’t know if this helps anyone else but I stumbled upon something that brings presence no matter what for a few seconds at a time --which do add up! Throughout the day as I begin to feel negative emotions arise I focus on “feeling” the sensation of life in my body. There’s a slight tingle that is always there - it’s a matter of noticing it. At least for me but so many meditation practices also elude to it. I’ve also found it helpful when I am in physical pain and also when feeling panic. It’s subtle but very much life changing.

"Take responsibility for your state of consciousness in the present moment. That's enough! "

[@Brabdog]

Awakening is the ultimate “specialness.” A “guru” once advised that the aim is not to obliterate the ego but rather allow the transformation into cosmic ego. Ego is resistance, transformation is surrender/accepting-what-is.

[@luxyluz2442]

LOVE THIS.

[@conde_bathory]

The last few days I've been remembering this image of a resistor wired to a short circuit (I'm an Electronics engineer lol) and a text alongside that says "Resistance is futile". As Eckhart says, resistance to the is-ness of the present moment is of no avail. Instead of offering resistance to the Now it should be better to be friends with it. It is very difficult to achieve, but there is some progress in me realizing it. The structures of the ego are so hard to dismantle...

I have heard others ask the same question and seen that others have been on this journey for years and years as well. I absolutely love Eckhart's answer to this woman. And I loveeee that he laughed first!! He always laughs at the ego lolol... i have learned to laugh at mine as well (when im aware of it of course) but I am so thankful for Echkart and these spiritual teachers that we have the privilege to have access to!

I think awakening when surrounded by egotistical people is a constant process of re establishing oneself in the present moment. I don't fool myself that I will ever be as grounded as Eckhart but he's a rock to come back to for catharsis

[@chuckm9603]

I agree I just do the best I can, life isn’t puppies and rainbows.

[@onreact]

It's not about being "surrounded by egotistical people". As long as you blame others your ego thrives. It's about overcoming the false self from within. In fact "other people" who are unconscious can even propel you out of your own egoic state because the more obnoxious egoic behavior becomes the easier it is to distance yourself from it in many cases.

I hope Eckhart reads the comments although I doubt he does. I would like him to know that we are grateful for his guidance. I am a beginner, but I find these talks helpful. I am attempting to separate from anxiety.

[@words4dyslexicon]

I think he sometimes surfs commentary, but I'm guessing random, with travel & talks & meetings I bet he really likes down time to not think of anything just listen to birds wind in trees.. I could see him content in a cabin by a stream but he wants the message to reach as many open people as he's able to before he "retires" from the stage, he makes excellent use of computer & youtube for us & when I sometimes look up read things in his books, I can hear his voice in the words. 🙏💜🕯💧🌱🐾👣🌿🌎🕊

Impatience is surely a formidable opponent towards awakening

[@juliusjacob1416]

[@onreact]

Impatience only means your ego still wants to seek, achieve and get something. Drop that desire and you will paradoxically be closer to awakening.

[@junipersages]

"Don't ask useless questions" LOL! Fully agreed, waking up and growing in consciousness is truly a miracle and I am grateful for it.

[@LucidLivingLL]

The biggest thing for me is that awakening is more about perspective. Your awareness becomes accustomed to lying in that space of presence and your awakening accelerates through a genuine desire to go deeper into that awareness itself. Sooner or later, you will make that space a natural place to go to. -Much love from a growing KZbinr

[@carolinasilva8865]

👏🏽🙏🏽

[@rogerlin9602]

Amen and Amen. 🎯🌄

[@onreact]

Desire implies lack and wanting something. The more you want to get awakened the less awakened you are as you want what you don't have usually. Drop the desire and appreciate what you already have. Be grateful. Do not think about the future aka "sooner or later" - practice presence now.

[@oneworldonehome]

"Be patient. Do not let your emotions drive you here and drive you there, for the workings of the heart are beyond the emotions that you feel day to day and moment to moment. They represent the great undercurrent. Like the great undercurrents that move the waters of the oceans of this world, they move the direction of your life. Yet like the great undercurrents of the oceans, they are not seen or recognized from the surface. If you live at the surface of your mind, you will be swayed by this thought and that thought and the thoughts of others. You will be governed by the mental environment in which you live." A quote from *Living The Way of Knowledge* - Chapter 3: The Pillar of Relationships, by Marshall Vian Summers.

[@TheMediumChannel]

Great Quote..those E-motions..Energy in motion drive everything from our physical hormones to our deep desires and learning how to do Heart-Brain Coherence allows the development of spiritual coherence for when we feel gratitude it's because we've received and the universe gives everything so elevating the heart to high focused gratitude and appreciation allows us to match the frequency of the GIVER..which is the universe and that is where the magic begins...

‘Take responsibility for your state of consciousness in the present moment, that’s enough’. -WATERFALL-

[@ditasaule1618]

I would advise not to assume it takes a whole lifetime. It takes now. And staying with the energy you sense within. It really is about caring enough where your focus goes and how you experience this moment. The more longer you focus within on the energy, each time a thought arises taking attention back to the energy, it reveals a whole different reality, I would say. It's absolutely astonishing. Heaven on earth.

[@daodejing81]

Indeed, as you and Eckhart said, be present with awareness. However, there is a process that requires spiritual homework, and that is the essence of know thyself. For example, some are attached to image, and so reject truth. In such cases, the present moment cannot assist such a one unless and until they participate earnestly in their spiritual homework, or spiritual practice.

[@theawakeningheart2725]

many years ago after my awakening started there was the subsequent demise of the ego but the seeking energy would still rear its head which is all a part of the universal intelligence at play. I got in touch with a lady who I knew was fully awake, towards the end of the session she said ' and it may never happen' (meaning self realisation). we ended the session and I was totally devastated then within seconds I felt liberated. I saw the ego was still holding on to the idea that I would get something which of course you don't and in recognising this liberation arose and the seeking energy just fell away . the frustration people experience is that the seeking energy has to collapse, which arises from a genuine surrender you can't make it happen and resignation is just the ego feeling despondent an illusionary letting go. then the inner journey begins where the programming, conditioning and socialising structures start to dismantle either all at once (which is rare) or over time leaving you with the heart you were born with....your true nature.

[@eganmay11]

So true! Thanks for sharing. I just watched Aaron Abke’s video on going through the seeking stage, etc. You’re so right the seeking energy does need to collapse.

I first came across Eckhart Tolle 24 years ago. Now I´m 58 and I believe I´m finally beginning to grasp "Internally" what the present moment is about. Why it took this long, I have no idea. But, I believe the moment is finally here and I´m just glad things came through for me spiritually. I´ve been practicing separation from throught / and the train of emotions for a while now, and gradually my life has become more peaceful. That doesn´t mean problems just go away, or the train of though stops all of a sudden. It´s still there, I only manage feelings and things that happen around me differently and my life is more peaceful and happier.

This is a PERFECT explanation and is exactly what I teach as well, especially the concept of collective ego and how we easily get pulled into that collective trap. We're not separate, we are individual manifestation of the collective whole and the really cool thing is if you get deeper into your presence practice it helps everyone develop greater presence as it adds to the collective. As you learn how to consciously manifest your reality through presence, entering the Quantum and creating your reality from the field of energy that created everything it helps everyone find their way to true conscious manifestation

How can I ever thank you enough

[@siobhanmulvey]

That’s what happens to me- I wobble bc I wonder/doubt/fear if I can sustain my presence and that pulls me out.

Exactly what I needed to hear right now! Bring the present moment to escape the grip of anxious. Thank you for your great teaching, Eckhart 🙏❤️

This channel gives me what I need, when I need it. Amazing!

Am I awake at this moment? This is the key question! Take responsibility for presence in the here and now! Kind of holy task! Sounds indeed very simple, but so difficult to do. Because you can only take this responsibility when you are present, when presence is there. When ego takes over, when you are challenged, the feeling or even the slightest notion of taking responsibility for being present is miles away!

I have been falling for this little trap lately. Asking how long its going to take is like an itch trying to scratch itself. The question itself is the ego trying to perpetuate itself.

That’s what Jon Anderson said on topographic Oceans. That all our thoughts and impressions and fears have been developing for millions of years. Hopefully, we should appreciate that given points in time are not as important as the nature of what is impressed on the mind and how it is retained and used.

With enough focus an ashtray can tell me things that will make me have realizations. Like my ashtray just told me to relax and not worry. If I focus hard enough a picture will reply anything I ask very accurately. I can chat with a picture for half hour, people will think I’m crazy but they talk to other people which don’t make any sense the subject they are talking about
