About Eckhart:
Eckhart Tolle is widely recognized as one of the most inspiring and visionary spiritual teachers in the world today. With his international bestsellers, The Power of Now and A New Earth-translated into more than 50 languages-he has introduced millions to the joy and freedom of living life in the present moment. The New York Times has described him as “the most popular spiritual author in the United States,” and in 2011, Watkins Review (now Watkins Mind Body Spirit) named him “the most spiritually influential person in the world.”
Eckhart’s profound yet simple teachings have helped countless people around the globe experience a state of vibrantly alive inner peace in their daily lives. His teachings focus on the significance and power of Presence, the awakened state of consciousness, which transcends ego and discursive thinking. Eckhart sees this awakening as the essential next step in human evolution.

Just remember that Eckhart was 29 when he dissociated from his mind. . He published "The Power of Now" when he was 49.

How lucky you are. My father has always been negative, pessimistic and judgemental. Okay, it's because he was traumatized, but it is a heavy legacy for me.

@@Anne_W._VerbundenSein yes people aren't perfect or circumstances make life difficult and my Dad had a difficult upbringing also. Everyone deals with trauma differently but I hear that at least you know that he did his best. No matter how people behave most are just doing their best 🙂

Thank you Eckhart 💕 you are a vehicle through which the Divine Source of all Life brings New Consciousness and Calls for the Spiritual Awakening of the human race. ☀️ You're a shining mirror through which shines the Light of the infinite underlying I AM.

I ❤ this! 🙏 😊

[@theuniversewithinn]

This made my day. I have been having an awakening since the last 3 4 months and it’s something I have to do conciously. The jourey is not easy but certainly rewarding. I’m not the same person I was last month let alone when I was pushed into it. Can you clarify what you mean fully in being and rarely upset? I realsied that I always don’t have joyful emotions rather I have this straight face of calmness. It’s more like neutral.

[@redsugar723]

The number of times I find precisely what I need to hear for that day is beautiful. Thank you Eckhart and community.

[@D-DM22]

I lapsed badly into unconsciousness today - I got angry at how a friend treated me or, I should say, how I perceived he treated me. I recognized this lapse about a minute after it happened.

[@susanerickson6752]

“What you do is secondary, how you do it is primary “. ❤

[@JustPlayMusic6891]

I love the tidbit about "how" being primary over "what". My parents instilled in me, that as the eldest, my siblings look up to me. So from an early age I have been hyper conscious about "how I do things" because I wanted my siblings to have an example of a still/steady/calm approach to reaching goals or solving problems. Now, when I was young, I was not aware of creative consciousness or mindfulness, but cultivating this deep habit of "being still" has served me well. I am not sure how much of an impact I've had on my siblings, but I know I have impact with every person I have interacted and will interact with in the future. I find a deep sense of satisfaction in doing even the simplest of tasks with a level of mindfulness and consciousness that others leave my presence feeling at least slightly better, but definitely not worse.

[@Syl-Vee]

"Ultimately, what you do is secondary; but how you do it is primary." So beautiful, thank you!

I look forward to Eckhart’s daily teachings and I also really enjoy the comment section on his channel. I am grateful for everyone who share their stories, insights and positivity on here. I’ve been going through a breakup and listening to a lot more of ET’s advice lately~ I keep reminding myself to trust the journey 🙏🏻 and I check in to not only remind myself of ET’s teachings but to see his community uplift one another, it’s a beautiful manifestation and I’m grateful to be here to watch it unfold ✨

[@Bee.in.]

I opened this video because Eckhart is one of the most impactful teachers in my experience, and because of the ACIM quote: “I am never upset for the reason I think”. Have I realized that this video was about manifestation, I would not have watched it. And it is the title 😅 I have been avoiding anything related to manifesting because of how hurtful it was (or seemed to be) to personally try to manifest material things in “my life”. I’m happy I watched this video because it made me realize that I am ready to observe the “hurt”, the thoughts, beliefs and perceptions, and welcome them into awareness. It is okay to feel this way. It is no my job to manifest anything, but to allow whatever wants to flow through me. Thank you God for providing us what we need. Thank you Eckhart

[@darinsmith2458]

This reminds me.. I was working at this place that paid well but was really stressful.. One day the boss and his crew were yelling at me just to yell at me and all of a sudden that stillness or you could say the peace of God took over within me.. Yes, I got fired on the spot but that was so worth it.. I also had a revelation.. My mom would yell at me until I would react.. I thought it was so that she could release her anger.. My revelation was so that she could justify it.. Just what you are saying about the EGO or you could even say Pain Body..

[@No-thing-ness]

Thank you Master

[@Da_Xman]

Eckhart Tolle began this excellent/brilliant video, by addressing the very first thing necessary to taking such an approach of non resistance - the personal realization that "our" lives are actually not "our" own (i.e., Life is living "us"/"you"/"me" (i.e., intellect/ego); “we"/"us"/"you"/"me" (intellect/ego) are actually >not< living Life; as such, "our" control is very limited [which is why we're so frustrated and suffering]. The situation(s) of Life isn't/aren't mere random, blind chaos. There is a control factor that's immensely larger, broader and deeper than is obviously apparent to "me"/"us"/ego/intellect; THAT is the entire point of Self Realization - which is difficult for "us"/"we"/"me" (ego/intellect) to comprehend, accept and surrender to. Ramana Maharshi said that God is using our own karma to lead/guide us to Itself. That applies individually and collectively, superceding practically every belief system humanity has devised consequent to [gross] misunderstanding of the Subject/object "relationship". As Eckhart Tolle states in this brilliant video to the effect of "if 'you' believe 'you' know what the problem is, and it still continues, it's not what 'you' believe it is, which underlies what the entire video is all about. In this light, here's something to consider: "What you are seeking is causing you to seek." Cheri Huber Once this becomes obvious, complete acceptance of and complete surrender (i.e., devotion) to The Self becomes much easier (and so does "our" experience of Life). For what it's worth... ✨🥴✨

I had a recent experience with the DMV and renewing my license. In the past I’d have gotten all worked up over it. I caught myself going there, and made the conscious choice to calm down and work through this calmly and without the mind. The second I managed to be completely present, the problem ceased to exist and a solution materialized.

[@sarahjmount9221]

This man is truly a gift from God. I’m fairly new at following his teachings but have been able to be still and have awareness of the presence, a little, during meditating by not thinking. I’ve been capable of being a better listener of others by staying in the present moment, and being still in between their words to me. So, I’ve been able to implement an absence of thinking, in a small way so far, going about my daily activities. However, how do I really go about bringing stillness into my activities? Am I missing something in Eckhart’s precious messages?

You are not doing anything wrong. It's an ongoing work of reminding ourselves to be present with what is.

@@sarahjmount9221I found Eckhart many, many years ago. For me it helps to listen to him regularly here on KZbin since I need to be reminded again and again. Just like he says in this video, I tend to not be perfect, but sometimes I go back to the "old pattern" of feeling frustrated etc when things don't go my way. At other times I feel I can truly be "in the now" without reacting negatively when obstacles appear. I wish you the very best!
