Todd I think I have learned more from Mother Nature than any Job or School.

[@zayedisrael]

You are Amazing Todd - I lost my wife to Cancer and then had a spiritual awakening now I am at absolute Peace in my life. Your videos are life changing.

[@wesna213]

Bless you beautiful soul ❤

[@sharlenelewis4412]

Todd, in this video, you have provided the clearest message of deep peace. I get what you are describing, and I want it too! You are unshakeable. Thank you for giving your time and creativity to create these videos. You are helping everyone who is drawn to your message to seek a higher place to live from. Everything about you embodies the peace you are describing...your voice, your tone, the pacing of your words. I'll continue to watch your videos to see your example and remember how I want to be. Love and blessings to you Todd.

[@thelovechannel7236]

I absolutely agree . Todd has a gift . ❤

[@seanratten9567]

What a Lovely, Thoughtful thing to say❤️

[@Sandra-to4wi]

Todd, you have brought me back full circle and lifted the vail, and placed me back onto the path I was traveling so many years ago (when I was in my 20s & close to my breakthrough). Like you, I went through tremendous suffering and loss that derailed me for decades. This morning, with tears in eyes, I picked up my cellphone and hopped on youtube. And found this video you shared that led me back to that journey I was on so long ago. Thank you, dear man, for shining the light on that path. "Now I know why the Buddha laughs." May God bless you a thousand fold. Namaste, Sandy ❤❤❤ ❤❤❤

[@lisahinkofer2085]

We are drawn to the negative because it’s easier to be that way. Don’t have to do the work to realize ourselves until it’s too late. We fall and fail and become depressed. We have lost the ability to love ourselves.

[@francisoneill3784]

Beautiful words Todd. I am far from home, entering a war. A new life. Your words reassured me that all will be okay 😊 💕

[@MultiBikerboy1]

Stay safe❤

[@shiningstar5919]

Why would you do that? Haven't we learned already?

[@joannetolond5782]

He might not have a choice?

[@veronicagutierrez9196]

Honey, I hope you can still read this: if you are here watching this kind of videos it's surely because your soul is craving something very different from that war, whether it's literal or figurative. You're looking for that peace Tom is talking about. God bless you and help you find the way, I know you will ❤

[@AriElfyn]

We can't judge. Only the ego judges - even if it is war...then it feels justified. Only love. Be safe my friend 🙏

[@ricksawyer9102]

Wow! Todd, I've listened to all of your podcasts and videos. This new one is without doubt the one that has touched me the most. In 2018 the most important person in my life passed away, that was my mother. On July 26th I had a triple bypass, a complicated one which left me in a deep depression. I was in constant pain. Regarding alcohol, our stories are very similar. Anyways, your talks helped me through all of this. My bypass surgery, I've learned to accept it, last June I had a knee replacement, and this past April I had a second one. I never meditated until I started listening to you Thank you for giving me a different outlook on life. Thank you for making a difference!!

[@jimmcd5660]

Rick, good luck with everything, the bypass surgery, and both knees, that’s a lot, and sorry to hear of your loss, this is something I may be facing soon.

[@ricksawyer9102]

Thank you for the kind words Jim, that's very kind. I am very sorry for what your going through. I know how painful it is.

[@100angry]

Shri here from Canada. I would suggest once u are movable, take all past pain as opportunity ..travel for spiritual knowledge...journey goes through mother nature minute scenic too... Travel Himalayan path ...meet mooji , other spiritual gurus ...life will be totally changed.

[@palaniappansuba1895]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, experiences and insights that are really inspiring and motivating. 🙏🏽

[@ToddPerelmuter]

Thank you so much for your generous support

[@robertashaffer3950]

Todd, I have seen many of your videos which I have very much appreciated. This video however, has touched me in a very profound way, different from other videos of yours. Hearing you describe your life and what you experienced in the 9 years you were away on your spiritual journey, and what happened when you arrived back in the U.S., had me riveted to each word you spoke. Your vulnerability, authenticity & courage come through loud & clear. Thank you for sharing this with us. 🙏 I have actively been on my personal spiritual journey for almost 2 years. I thought I was extremely knowledgeable & deeply spiritual for decades, until something unexpected happened in August 2022, that showed me otherwise. I had only been scratching the surface of my self-help/spiritual journey. I was at the tip of an iceberg, never having searched deep down underneath the surface to see what was really going on inside myself. When this devastating event happened to me in August 2022, I knew I did not have the tools or even a notion, of how I was going to heal from the excruciating heartache I was experiencing. That's when I realized I had trapped myself in a corner for years, and the time had come to help myself get out of that corner. Your video is an example of what can happen in our lives when we learn what it means to let go and surrender. No matter how stormy the sea can be with its monstrous waves and constant thunder and lightning booming from the sky, once Divine inner peace has been accepted and received in our beings, it won't matter what goes on outside of ourselves, peace and calm will keep us where it's best to be. Our soul already knows this, and possesses this knowledge, because our blueprint has been placed inside of us when we arrived in the world. We just need to uncover everything that has layered over our soul so far. That's where I'm at.🙏 Thank you again Tood 🙏

[@ricksawyer9102]

I'm so sorry that you went through something that was so devastating for you in 2022. As much as I have taken from listening to Todd, I am impressed by your words. It left an impression on me. Thank you for sharing.

[@klues72]

What a beautiful connection with self. A journey to infinity.

[@beverlybelcher3423]

Thank you so much for the inspiration. I so needed this message. I just retired from a very rewarding but also very stressful job as a school bus driver. I am having trouble slowing down the pace I had assumed when I worked. Take eating for example. I am wolfing the food down like I have someplace to go and I am going to be late!!! I need to learn ways to slow down and relax! So , thank you!

[@TeamSpirit83]

Dear Brother Todd, my name is Tshepo Matsho, 41 years old. Your story made me cry, because it is sincere. Thank for sharing. Keep shining. 🙏 #Inspired

[@southlondon86]

Thank you, Todd. I was in tears by the time your story ended. I too want to give up smoking and other bad habits.

[@Featuringtim]

Thank you for sharing your story with us Todd, We are truly blessed. 27 years ago I received the Grace to stop smoking after 25 years. 21 months later, my Higher Power removed the obsession to use drugs after 31 years of active addiction. That's when my journey to find myself began. It is only through the Grace & Mercy of my Higher Power that I am able to reach out to you and say thank you for sharing. The Miracle continues, Namaste

[@elizabethhelenoleary]

[@kapenasingson2131]

Hey Todd thank you for journeying into the wilderness! We all are better off for it! Peace ✌️ amplified.

[@alokgupta168]

Todd I was also a man of extremes. But now the one extreme I am into is avoiding pleasures and abiding in the self. At points in meditation I seem to loose my body and that high is inexplicable. Who are we, Why are we here? are questions that are slowly getting answered. I wish you the best on your journey...may we meet one day in the astral plane...Om Shanti ❤

[@lisagilmore-wi9gu]

What an amazing story - thank you so much for sharing…. You travelled all the way to India to find your inner peace, to release those addictions, to meditate, or maybe meditation is what lead you to ur peace? And your story will inspire many… However, I had to respond to your story - I endured an awakening/ rebirth over 2 years ago. I went through an EXTREME TRANSFORMATION IN ONE SINGLE DAY! I didn’t meditate, I had no one helping me, coaching me, teaching me- I had Spirit/God! I SURRENDERED! I totally surrendered every bit of my will/ my worldly desires, worldly addictions, all the negative desires of the world- I overcame the world!!! Spirit said to me on this exact day- my peace will NEVER LEAVE YOU! 2 years and 3 months later- the peace of God has never left me!!! What did I give up- smoking of 47 years, drinking daily to exist in life, doing drugs to escape my reality, amongst others… What did I gain- everything……….. Not one desire to drink, smoke, or ‘do drugs ever again! Every fear I felt was GONE! The EGO that controlled ME for so long had surrendered… There is so much MORE to tell, maybe someday I’ll write about it. But just know- I didn’t leave my home when all this took place… And though I didn’t know what meditation was really back then, I did what I called communing with God for 8 months daily… I had a “BLISS” for 14 days that felt like heaven had come to earth for me. Why 14 days I do not know and strive to get to that state again.. I later said that I felt like I came into unity with Christ or Christ-consciousness…. Just remember if you seem long enough- you will find… Never give up… peace love and light to you all

[@robinjackson3947]

I wonder if you will ever know how much your words, story, peace, and love have inspired those of us living our lives searching and living for truth. It world be unmeasurable.

[@ibizawavey8630]

Life is a mirror of our subconscious, right? i'm thinking out loud here. So, any fear, anxiety etc will show up in your "reality" and the internet is fuelled with those. I was thinking about my life before i started heavily consuming the internet and post that. It is almost like the more 'ignorant' i was to current even the more blissful i was and it's almost like the more i learned of 'chaos' in the world, the more i invited it in to this reality. Like back when I never read news, or watched news, reddit, twitter everything in my life was just all fun and parties, filled with friends but since 2012, everything has gone a different direction, which is exactly when i started watching news, learning about the 'world' going online a lot etc. holly sht as i type this it is hitting me. What if our world is just a manifestation of whatever we consume? and ignorance really is bliss? What if consuming anything which settles in our subconscious will then liteally materialize in our world?

Wow brother, I had no clue you went through all that. I will never trust another human alive again. I promise you that.

[@adriancaldwell]

Should we spend our life helping others putting ourselves in stressful situations like war zones helping victims and feeling that trauma…or should we live looking inwardly to find inner peace but with the guilt that we are blinkering ourselves to those out there who need us? In other words what’s a meaningful life being a firefighter rescuing others or a Buddhist in a monastery?

[@iamthismomentintime]

Todd, your videos are inspiring me to share my own story through original visual poems. We are conditioned to work in a fast-paced world, achieve more and more material things, numb our minds with alcohol, food, technology, immediate gratification which only leads to a greater void inside our spiritual hearts. You videos remind us of the TRUTH and WISDOM that is deep within all of us which we can access in moments of silence. I am grateful for being reminded to practice STILLNESS! Namaste

The journey keeps taking me to new heights of spirituality and inner peace.

Todd, you are a fine example of what we can attain to become 🌻

[@没关系l]

sometimes happiness can be a de motivator. discontentment is a powerful force to take action on goals .. that's why many need to hit rock bottom before flying right ☕

[@helenscott187]

Your observation really resonates with me and in my experience you are completely right. The path to enlightenment is through suffering x

[@anElizAgonzales]

Love you Todd! I have done and tried all of that you’re saying and trust me.. that peace is good but it is temporary. In the next crisis I went through, I fell badly from all of that amazing peace. And at that time, it was The worst, ever, fall down in my life. The only one who’s keeping me going is Jesus Christ, man. There’s so much life and fulfillment with the Holy Spirit that I guarantee you, you’ve never ever, ever, ever experienced anything like it, and THAT will keep you going. For everyone, with love❤️

What a nice voice! Small tip. While meditating: breath from the belly (emotions) to the heart and the from the mind (ego) to the heart. The heart has the intelligence to transform it all. While doing, feel the energy flowing. It is not positive nor negative. Just energy.

Wow Todd..What a remarkable being you are...❤ I just love your authenticity and crave that as I deepen my connection with who I am and awaken to the world with fresh eyes.. I resonate so much with your story.. Striving, stress , alcohol and drug addiction constantly craving more until it all came crashing down.... finally.. And then the penny dropped and I woke up.. Starting a new chapter in my life with a few euros ..but I have learned so many wonderful tools in doing this.. Gratitude being a huge one.. Being true to oneself isn't the easiest path but most definitely the most fulfilling.. Thank you for sharing ❤
