"When you arise in the morning think of what a privilege it is to be alive, to think, to enjoy, to love." ~Marcus Aurelius ❤️🌱🙏🏽

[@raresmircea]

When you’re having a 10 out of 10 hellish suffering like the many people who live with intractable major depression, or cluster headaches, or complex regional pain syndrome, etc. just think what a wonderful joyous world this is 🌸🙏🍀🥰🦋 Seeing the nasty stuff from time to time might actually do the world a lot of good 🤘

[@Nae641]

Don’t think just be!

[@raresmircea]

@@Nae641 "Don’t think, just be" is a very shallow and vague affirmation. One has to add a lot of context to it to make it into something worth paying attention. Otherwise it could be interpreted as thinking is bad and laissez faire is the natural and wise attitude, which is the dharma of flat worms, not of human beings.

[@TerriblePerfection]

I feel that way every morning! So grateful...to be lacking nothing, even in this crazy, never-ending lockdown. 🥰

[@david.walters]

You! Yes you reading this right now. No not some random person but YOU! I'm sending this message to YOU! Everything that has hurt you is over. Every test you've been put through, you have survived. You might not be exactly where you were aiming to be but today marks the start of your new life. Your mindset shifted to such a high level that it vibrated on a frequency that brought you right here. The universe has a way of taking you exactly where you want to be, at the perfect time and all that is required, is for you to align your mind. NOW, you're on the right track. Watch this over and over until it sinks in and share it with the people you want a better life for and heal and grow together. You're blessed and the new chapter of your life just started! No more negativity. No more sadness. Forgive yourself and learn to love who you've always been so you can sore to the highest level of yourself. This is awesome and I'm so excited for what's about to happen to you over the next few days. Wow! You really made it to this place. ❤️

It's funny how something so obvious - the inexistence of time - can take so much "time" to realize (oh the irony!). I love how relentless Eckhart is in pointing his listeners to the Now. The Now is Everything.

[@oceansvijesti]

It truly is. The only place to be and to live.🙏🏻💙

[@nexstory]

"Now" is not a noun, but if anything, a verb and as such, there is no "the". Now is not a moment in time but rather a continuity of being and becoming where past, present, and future co-exist as one. Driving an auto across a bridge is a visual analogy for self, moving through space/time. The driver, as consciousness, performs as constant from its existential beginning, through the middle to the end. Self though always present nonetheless is in a constant state of back (memory) and forth (potential) till each journey's end. There is no "now", except as a book or set of lectures by a man (Tolle) who has cleverly bottled it as wine.

[@thebuddhavisions9527]

@@nexstory I wouldn't say the Now is neither a noun or a verb, it's unobjectifiable. Tolle understands this very well, but when using language one needs to make concessions for the listener, and as far as I'm concerned he is able to point to That Which Can't Be Named or Objectified (see, it's easier to just call it Now, others call it This) in a way that resonates much more than your car across the bridge analogy, which doesn't really resonate with me personally. It does resonate with you though, which is great, but it doesn't make it any more accurate or useful in any objective sense. I don't think there's a need to debate terms, nor is there a need to diminish a spiritual teacher's message even if one does not resonate with the words being used by said teacher. Have a good day :)

"Stress is caused by being “here” but wanting to be “there.” -Eckhart Tolle

[@heyglasses]

stress is caused by this guy who is going around in circles without giving clear instructions on solutions than wasting the majority of his speeches by identifying other human problems. If one cannot teach an issue in a simplified manner than one does not know the issue well, or kidding themselves.

[@onreact]

@@heyglasses You seem to be very stressed indeed. Focus on what you are doing now (watching a video, writing a comment) instead of what you want to achieve as a goal (venting anger, becoming stress free). "The way is the goal."

[@sandrasaba8229]

@@heyglasses simple answer is Be okay with your feelings of stress instead of resisting them and telling yourself I shouldn't be stress. Know that all emotions are temporary they come and go. Just accept each emotion as they arise. Like I feel stress, so what . It will pass.

When the ego mind plays games with you remember these Benefits of being in the present - 1. Burns away past karma, addictions and suffering. 2. Brings you in alignment with the Universe here and now. 3. Which brings you on to your life purpose and destiny. 4. More depth, seeing beauty in things and feeling emotions. Also control over emotions. 5. Removes you from stress and challenges. 6. Attracts abundance in your life. 7. More aliveness, more energy. 8. Healing and immunity boosts with the inner body. 9. Using the Law of attraction gets more fuel.

[@Gk2003m]

Haven’t yet watched this. I will. One comment first: indeed the future does not exist. Nor does the past. All that exists is right now, and the only way to truly live is to fully embrace right now. That said: the odds are that if you’ve lived this long, you’ll continue to live awhile longer. So balance your embrace of right now with an embrace of the likeliness of living into the future, and plan for it.... and your embrace of the here and how can be even more complete.

@@gianthills the guy has written 2 books in 25 years. And so what he gives speeches and charges money to attend? Most of his content is free on KZbin. This is not the Ancient times where he could retire in the woods and live a mystical life and appear every once in awhile to enlighten everyone. I’d probably do the same thing since the only way to survive in modern days is to work and get paid for it so you can pay the bills. And Alan Watts didn’t invent his “philosophy”. He just translated the message of Zen Buddhism to the West. He never claimed any rights over his “teachings”, and neither does Eckhart.

The heightened stability gave space of reliable, ongoing silence giving the nervous system space for recovering enough, to challenge & explore the irrationality of the ptsd caused angry defensiveness, which I am certain has given lots of like afflicted, to grow in self trust via listening to the inner world of senses, especially where such roots are consciously deepened & widened.
