Gratitude as a Gateway to Presence - Br. David Steindl-Rast

[@tenthousanddaysofgratitude]

I have decided to spend the month with Brother David here. I was ordained in the seminary that came from the Centre of Spiritual Studies Brother David co-founded. I am so grateful for his work and presence on earth. 💖 I am on the path I am on because of Brother David.

[@PaulaDTozer]

What do you have in mind?

[@troygardner1610]

Paula D. Tozer what he meant is Tami, the lady who introduced him at start of video, had a warm glowing intro of him " good brother david"

[@enorge551]

Brother David is the very best pathfinder -

[@tinaelrassi5884]

hello to all with many thanks why can't we be taught this at earlier age them we can be one with God living peacefully heaven on earth

[@annoreilly81]

Tina El Rassi today I saw a quote that said "before you are old and wise you have to be young and stupid". It's great when people understand these teachings at a young age but I think deep understanding comes with time and experience.

[@troygardner1610]

it's partly as those that decide what to teach the young and stupid are old and stupid, but don't know they are stupid or worse think they are wise, and this is true regardless of parents, society, education etc.

[@troygardner1610]

Tina El Rassi it's the trick/hidden question in life. Before we can make it, we have to have a self (the transition from child to adult) before we can see others and thus give ourselves up to be our true selves/all one.

[@DilbagSingh-ox8li]

Love you tina love you, yes why not, thanks for reminding, I am blessed and have a daughter, yeah I will try my best to share this with her, love you tina love you.

[@elizabethbillups7079]

I have always asked: "Why am I HERE?" And "something"... brought me HERE! What a magnificent journey, we all are on! What BEAUTY!

[@Hitokage]

Gratitude...I love how he started the speech.

[@baabbylon]

Wow. .......this says it all , thanks ...

[@troygardner1610]

RIFFING: on his quote, "I am through you so I" ...came up with "i am through you, so we, so I. The sun cannot shine without sky, the stars cannot shine without the dark of night. So too are we together as one borderless sky and space and our inner light, the stars and suns, shining so brightly for all with bright eyes to see, allowing us to be."

[@DilbagSingh-ox8li]

Love you troy love you,love you dear love you

[@CristinaSeabraFerreira]

This speak is really wonderful - listening to it once helps us to focus on gratitude and the blessing of life- listening again later reminds us. Our minds need to be reminded so that we don´t fall, caught on daily mental traps. Thank you so much for sharing Br David wisdom and loving kindness through his talks :)

[@MarkS-yb1bl]

I was honored to be at this event with Eckhart and a list of wonderful speakers. Br David's talk moved me. Such a gentle soul. I hope he is doing well as he advances in years.

[@carlesblas]

Reminds me of Frankies ex husband

[@radhikaschwartz3499]

This was made in 2016

[@laurentroose2429]

I'm afraid that the people of the Tolle entourage will dismiss this video right away. It's sad that behind the spiritual teacher there is een big money company at work :(

[@grateful_org]

Just to clarify, the Tolle foundation is the entity promoting Brother David, his work and his word...

[@laurentroose2429]

Well if they're promoting it then I don't understand why KZbin has banned the same video on another channel... It said it has to do with the author rights which is another term for: I'm not getting the money , right?

[@grateful_org]

I am not sure about that, Laurent. Because we did not produce/make this video ourselves, we had to get permission from ET Foundation to post it on our channel. I presume that others would need to do the same thing.

[@TLMuse]

It's probably a good idea to ask rather than assume motives on the part of others. Asserting one's intellectual property rights doesn't necessarily imply that one is making even a cent from a copyrighted work. It just means that the rights holder wants to control how the work is shared, perhaps even to prevent others from making money (e.g., from ad clicks) for work that they want to distribute freely. It may be as simple as wanting to make it easy to keep track of how many views the video is getting. I hasten to add that this is not to say that I know the reasons behind the decision, either!

[@grateful_org]

Thank you, TLMuse. It's true. We were given permission by Sounds True and the Eckart Tolle Foundation to post this special video and offer it for free on our (non-profit) KZbin channel. Laurent Roose, I hope that you can enjoy it and then share it freely with others!
