Manly P. Hall: Meister Eckhart - Spiritual Mystery

[@mltlondon]

Part Two: This was a rather surprising lecture for me, I didn't expect that it would be an interesting one for whatever reason. Mr Hall used some well thought out words naturally and put it all together so beautifully. There were many areas of this lecture based on eckhart's teachings that stood out to me such as the dangers that man must go through as a test to come to the realization of his inner self, how certain individuals attains self-mastery and by doing so has a duty protect society, the understanding of the mystic culture of the Egyptians and the Grecians,. I'm really taken away by this lecture, I'm going to go away and do a 5 minutes meditation to store all this in my memory bank because this was certainly a memorable one as many of his are.

This is, hands down, one of the best speeches/lectures I’ve ever heard. So unbelievably inspiring.

[@jasonlamour4787]

MPH is really a gift for us. So much to learn.

[@blazingstar9638]

@@jasonlamour4787 yes🙌

[@brianchambers6853]

I fully agree.

[@retrogore420]

What’s crazy is that he was known to lecture without notes.

[@LindaonitaAtkins]

A superlative lecture representing Meister Eckhart the way the truth and the life.❤

[@MrResearcher122]

Without flattery, Mr Manly Hall has done the German monk a good deed. Few, if any, of the videos on Meister Eckhart can be held dear. It would be unkind to say tedium is felt while listening to most of them, but few ever stir the heart. Here, as it were, the Dominican is put on stage, dressed stylishly, and honoured in a manner fitting his greatheartedness.

Outstanding lecture. Thank you.

This lecture is a true blessing.

MPH's most powerful lecture yet IMO. Very enlightening!

[@jmonie02]

Man all of his lectures are powerful.

[@Ice-jg3yi]

What a mind. There’s several lectures he has that just feel cathartic listening to, as he himself would say. A panacea, as he would also say. To the man that changed my life completely, I am eternally grateful for you, Manly Palmer Hall.

[@nicematerial]

Incredible. The discussion matches the essence of the subject of the discussion. Eckhart, Suzuki, Hall speak at the same time across time. Presented a month ago and right now, carefully and faithfully. Thanks, MHS.

[@janchmiel7302]

from 1962 yet one of the most fresh and clear expositions on Eckhart that I've heard...

[@LDRester]

Wonderful

[@russneese1004]

For me it’s very enlightening to know that those mystics from the turn of the 20th century up until the late 50s or early 60s when they exited this consciousness.. these teachings some died and went underground… My teacher Joel GoldSmith speaks of everything that this man is speaking, just amazing to me. I’m honored to listen to this. Thank you for posting it.

[@connorkokora3014]

Thankful to be listening along with all of you. Reading some comments before starting, really looking forward to this one! Thanks Mr. Manly.

[@traytrid9367]

We shall remember Meister Eckhart. Very unreal how we cannot think this way at this age and time where all information is available to us. Thank you MPH. Always grateful

" Somebody asked Meister Eckhart - a really religious person - "When Jesus says 'Ask and it shall be given' why don't people ask? If it is just for asking's sake, why don't people ask? If he says seek and ye shall find, and he says only knock and the doors shall be opened unto you, then why don't people knock?" Eckhart laughed and he said, "For two reasons first you may ask and it may not be given to you, so people don't want to be frustrated; second, and a deeper reason, you may ask and it may be given to you. That is more frightening." That's why people don't try. They simply pay lip-service And you know, the whole world seems to be religious in a way people go to the temple to the mosques, to the churches They read the Bible, Koran, Gita, they recite the Vedas, they do mantras, but still there seems to be no religious consciousness at all The earth is surrounded by a very, very dark cloud of unconsciousness. There seems to be no light. The night seems to be utterly dark, not even a single star. You have to be very, very aware of this, because you can do the same as people have been doing down the ages. Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism, Jainism - they are not true religions. They are pseudo, counterfeits. Christ is true, Christianity is false. Buddha is true, Buddhism is false. Buddhism is created by us, Buddha is not created by us; but we create Buddhism according to our needs, according to our ideas, according to our prejudices. WE create Buddha, we create Buddhism, we create a myth of Buddha. The real Buddha is not created by us. The real Buddha comes into existence IN SPITE of us. He has to fight to be! He has to find ways and means to exist. He has to find a way to get out of the prison that we call the society. But once somebody has become awakened, we gather around him and we start spinning and weaving a system around him which is all of our own making. It has nothing to do with the person at all. The stories that are told about Buddha are untrue; so are the stories about Christ. The real person is lost. We create such mist, such dust around, that nobody can see the real person. That is the work of the theologians. For two thousand years Christian theologians have been creating such dust that it is impossible to see Jesus. He is completely lost in their logic-chopping, in their theories, they have created Himalayas of words. Nobody is bothered about who this main really is, what his message is. The message is very simple, it is not complicated. The message is not that you should worship Jesus or Buddha. The message is that you should become a Christ or a Buddha - less than that won't do. Don't become a Christian, become a Christ. If you have any respect for yourself become a Christ, don't become a Christian. Become a Buddha don't become a Buddhist. No 'ism' can contain Buddha, no church can contain Christ. But the human heart can contain Buddha. ONLY the human heart can contain him, because the human heart is as infinite as the existence itself. Don't worship him outside. If you have understood Buddha, RESPECT YOURSELF! Feel reverence for your own being; that will be reverence towards Buddha. If you have understood Christ, start looking inwards - you will find him there. He is not outside, not in the churches. He is in the innermost core of your being. If religion really happens in the world there will not be religions but only a kind of religiousness, a suffused light, a quality, indefinable - just as love is or awareness is; a different quality of consciousness. And the time for it has come. And when the time for a certain idea comes, no force in the world can prevent it."

[@LindaonitaAtkins]

Absolutely a well thought out depiction and lecture of Meister Eckharts interior life spoken beyond time in eternity having detached ones self from the world of time with all of it's limitations of nothingness. Creatures in themselves are nothingness saith Eckhart. ❤

[@mltlondon]

Part One: (44:11) It makes sense now that Eckhart Tolle author of 'The power of NOW' had the same belief in the attitude of the Zen, he too was German, possibly a reincarnate or continuing ancestral teachings. What stimulated my attention in this lecture was the idea of one enlightened being walking amongst millions who are not walking in the light, for is the millions too walking in the light can not see the light because the enlightened being walking in the light is not aware that he is walking in the light. In the infinite there is no time, we as incarnates on physical reality is time constraint because of the frequency of the planet.

[@Tarotainment]

No eckhart tolle just read their books and restated them as if he made it up. None of this reincarnation

[@mltlondon]

@@Tarotainment I said possibly and I'm sure he is continuing the work as we are of Mr Hall's.

[@taroulucasava4550]

@@mltlondon I am a fan of Tolle and it's pretty amazing that he renamed himself after Meister!

Eckhart is a mystic and his views are different than the eastern philosophies in the way that he points to the “grund” and to the “one” as an uniting God principle

Some weird thumping noise in the background. Please take care of these things , it ruins the whole experience. Otherwise the old gentleman does not cease to impress. Thanks for cleaning these up they are in much much better shape now then they used to be.

[@ManlyHallSociety]

We would be grateful to send you the existing audio files if you can do this yourself or hire out the work. We can only do so much, which is why we rely on our awesome volunteers.

[@CapoKind]

Where do you get the audio files to volunteer to restore ? Is there an archive ?

[@Syzygypsysymus]

@@ManlyHallSociety I have a some experience as an audio engineer (writing/mixing/mastering), I would love to help however I can.

[@ManlyHallSociety]

@@Syzygypsysymus Thank you. Unfortunately, I'm not sure what can be done with the 'thumping' (likely Mr. Hall bumping the mic stand if it's placed too close to his chair). If it's in-between words, then it's a tedious matter of pulling them out. If the 'thump' is during a spoken word, not much can help.

[@richardkasper5822]

The zen idea is a false universe shared & inhabited by seducing demons of evil.The right way is an organized,humbled way of accepting the knowledge while stifling your own ego. I've come to realize the divinity of Jesus is the only realization there truly is.If we had all learned from Him the world could've gone on forever.

[@BodhisattvaMaitreya]

Jesus was a fable, Zoroaster or Cyrus of Persia were real and much more than Jesus could ever thought to be

[@Gaggerlotion]

That’s not zen

[@billybobwombat2231]

Except the jesus dude is most likely a work of fiction.

[@Tarotainment]

Zen has no demons or evil. Makes no sense. You just strawmanned the heck out of something you don't understand

[@Dragonb0rn1]

Apparently you don't know that Mahayana Buddhism (Zen) has demons incorporated into it's mythology, right? :^))))
