I lost my brother unexpectedly years ago. He was young and it was a shock. It was so painful at the time, and I never knew how to process his death or the pain, so it just stayed in me and built up over years. And any strong reminder, like hearing a song he used to listen to, would cause me deep pain that would resonate, pain was always just under the surface. Since finding Eckhart's teachings and applying them, I've been able to face and even sit with that pain and accept it. Accept his death. And transmute that pain. Now I am not afraid to think of him, hear a song, remember him. Memories of him now make me feel happiness instead of anguish. This is just one of many ways my life has changed, and is now in a constant shift as I continue my practice. I'm so thankful for these teachings.

Yup. Hi

[@farrenrohana]

When you were raised in a home where anger was how you dealt with anything stressful, for example you'd get really mad at someone when they got hurt in an accident, but you were the only one awake and aware it really messes you up. I've been trying to deal with it for years. The more I allow it and feel it the more it seats itself. Those who haven't experienced deep trauma, addiction, abuse, abandonment, narcissism, emotional disorders, anger, betrayal, unrequited love, and were aware through it all have no idea. I don't mean I was awake and aware as I am now I mean I wasn't fast asleep like the rest of my family and friends. As a young teenager I was trying to get the family into counseling. I really bit off a huge pile of spiritual lessons to chew on. I've known this for many years and have always thought I was really crazy for doing it. I also think I'm a new soul that wanted to go through this time on earth so I had to experience what most go through in several lives in just one! I'm lucky to be as sane as I am. My doctor actually called me a miracle so I must be doing something right.

[@farrenrohana]

@@vasundhara1089 thank you so much!❤💖💓

[@Drew_Hurst]

Dear Friend, another possibilty is that You are an 'Old-Soul' and You're here to end these ignorant silly ways of Your Kin; not by having to heal or change them but by healing and being Your True Self and showing Them the way. How consciously They realize it, is not as important as how high You can raise Your consciousness, and radiate Your love & Light. I imagine You've had to figure this out already, to a large degree, but this Eckhart talk, "Eckhart Tolle's guide on how to avoid People pleasing" might help reassure, and help Us co-exist with difficult Kin with love All the best! ♾💚🌞

[@farrenrohana]

@@Drew_Hurst thank you but I haven't had anything to do with any of my family in many years and I am no longer suffering because of any of it. Eckheart's video on the park bench was what prompted me to leave them all behind and get clean and sober in 2005. My clean date from crack cocaine is xmas day 2004. I listened to many of Eckhart's videos over the years and I've done a ton of work, I'm doing very well. I believed myself to be an old soul for many years prior to getting clean. I was into all kinds of spiritual stuff when I was in active addiction. The reason I changed my mind in recent years to being a new soul is because of how incredibly insane my life was even compared to other addicts. I had tons of friends who were addicts back then, it was rampant, but not the kind you see in downtown Los Angeles or Vancouver these days that is on a whole new level now. I also decided I'm a new soul rather than an old one because I don't remember any past lives. I have also considered that the reason for this is that God is sparing me additional unneeded suffering because of how much trauma I experienced in just this one lifetime and it's more than enough to heal from. Namaste ❤️❤️❤️

[@farrenrohana]

@@donkanis6141 awesome! I'm very happy for you. I have 20 years clean and I healed my anxiety, depression and PTSD. I had to leave everyone I knew behind to do it.

I also lost my dog, 2nd February. I kind of use this wheel of thoughts to hang on to him still. I know it's dysfunctional, but somehow I feel that if I stop thinking, for example, I should have done more, I should have done tests earlier, or about our daily walks and drives to the bushlands, him sitting in his basket in the passenger seat, I kind of want to hang on to those thoughts, even if it means I cry every day. Somehow I feel if I stop that, I'll let him down. Silly, really, but I don't want to let go. Anyhow, I hope you cope better than I. Love to you!

Lovely how he speaks about the peace behin the pain. I always like to describe this with "I acknowledge the pain, I allow myself to feel it and not resist the pain cutting through me. And behind that pain is a door I can walk through and I feel peace. But you have to go through the pain to reach that door. Of course Eckhart says this in only 1 sentence instead of 3, but thats because he is Ekhart. 😍

[@Maryanoel]

Great tip!! Thanks

[@karene7761]

Part of the issue is society's addiction to trauma and suffering. My adult daughter was found deceased after OD'ing. I was not afraid to face the pain and let the emotions run through me. I am at peace with her passing and do not have the sad reactions looking at pictures, etc. I have often offered my contact information to others experiencing the same and usually hear "no, I don't want to talk about it." Harboring those emotions lines people up for a host of mental and physical health problems as well as a miserable life.

[@heidibonjour]

Very sorry to hear of your daughter's passing; I know it's not the same but we lost my nephew, my sister's son to a toxic drug incidence one year ago. I need to reframe it somehow as I am still in deep grief.

[@shanharlmall]

For some of us, emotions are terrible. Uncontrolled storms of hate, fear, longing, love, and hope...all at once. It results in being alone because people can't handle what remains.

I recommended your book "The Power of Now" to her, but I don't think she ever came close to it. The emotions and the associated delusions can be so strong and can live on for years.

There is an important connection that must be made. The emotional body and the physical body store trauma, emotions and there is also redeeming value to making sense of our 'story'. That story is who you are! Perhaps from a transpersonal level it makes no difference but that story is how you came to be. And perhaps part of that is learning that your past doesn't define you entirely either. Emotional purging is a real thing and isn't necessarily completely fabricated by thought. There is a value to proper grief processes too.

[@emilia5347]

One reason this filosofer said that, "I knew he was not immortal", could have been because he had thought of it beforehand. And I don't mean in any gloomy way, more like a deep fear he had managed to overcome and find peace with. I did that with my baby.. I was so afraid something would happen to him that I couldn't live a normal life. So it was necessary to find a peace in reality. He is not immortal, no matter what I do.

I identify with much of what you say. For example, I continue to experience a great deal of anxiety and depression over losses including the death of my little girl more than 7 years ago now, and more recently the loss of my home and 95% of everything I owned which I will never be able to recoup. I still have enormous financial pressures on me, and I can foresee myself in the not too distant future stuck in a state run home for the aged and disabled. I have read the stories of many people who ended up in this situation, and the lack of medical facilities and good care is VERY REAL, and the suffering people endure in a country as rich as the U.S. is astounding. All of this ruins my sleep almost every night, but I cannot seem to "let it go" as you describe. In fact I have wondered if this "observing" is what medical practitioners deem a pathological condition described as "dissociation." I wish it could all be simple and easy, but I do not find it to be so.

All negative emotions are unacceptance of the present moment. It's resistance to what is. Recognize that there is deep peace underneath every negative emotion. There is a hint of Buddha's smile behind you. Transcend to another dimension, then negative emotions won't take up residence in you. Place your energy and awareness in your inner body now. 😇🌷🍭🐿😇😇🎪 Thanks Eckhart. 27 January 2023.😇🦋🎪🌻🍦🎅

Hering a clock ticking, and giving it attention, I think can be used for practice to deepen presence in you.

We are so Blessed to have you with us at these times Thank you xx

When my dad past I found a box with a note saying my name and in the box there was a clock. I felt the Tick symbolised life going on but you’ve helped me understand this further by your interpretation thank you 🙏🏻😊 I also cried for dad forever it felt but gradually the tears dispelled, I thought ii would never get over it. So it was a relief. I do believe the thinking plays a part in continuing the grief. ❤

This being is absolutely extraordinary! ❤️

It's definitely not a subject many are comfortable knowing let alone understanding. Eckhart you spend this time putting feelings into words analysing is not even a-part of it but of a whole. All a difficult time and space to be constantly within. I guess that's why your here to allow us to know feelings are what is. If suppressed so are you if free, so are you 🥰

The other day I felt upset about a possible impending financial problem. First time, under this stress I'd had many times I felt like a band around me of light peace under the emotion of worry. It was weird having them both present. I thought one has to go. They can't both be present. Without thinking I just let it be. Both present. It made the worry less and stay not as long. first time I have noticed this. I thought I must have made a shift to experience this.

I lost my mom last year. I’m still trying to process it really. She was my best friend in life. I was her caretaker. I loved her more than anyone on this planet. I miss her so much. I’m trying to take your advice but I think I’m stuck in grief. I can’t seem to get over it. Thank you for sharing your life experiences with us. It helps me feel a little less alone.

[@theinngu5560]

Sorry to hear this …perhaps try Byron Katie …she does online sessions every week and is very powerful…she has worksheets that you can download and they really work . Good luck

[@sonyavincent7450]

Early days for you. Lots of healing within the first 2 years, from my experience.

[@Trissa.33]

Perhaps it's not time yet, grief has it's own timetable, important to let it be with you for now, to embrace it so that it feels welcome. You will know when it's time to gently move forward.. My mother died almost 39 years ago and I've been carrying such distress ever since.. today I have a new awareness.. blessings and love to you.

[@ABirdOnTheMoon]

I send you lots of love 🤍. I am sorry for your loss.

[@catherinewaterman3840]

So sorry for your loss of your dear Mom. ❤

[@postscript5549]

I lost both my sister and mother within a short time from each other. There were several highly unusual and difficult conditions created at that time. I lost my mind. After four years I am much better. Tolle's talks helped greatly late during the period when I started listening again after decades of hiatus.

Eckhart a day keeps Wetiko away.

[@luli508]

I’m so glad I came across this today I was up late last night cause of the emotions I created from thoughts that had me up all night they intensified where I couldn’t sleep but I never put my attention into my body

[@Groglor]

I found Eckhart videos many years ago but this year Ive watched many Eckhart Tolle videos and Ill continue to do so. Thank you for your teachings. Its been helping me a lot in my journey.

Thank You Echart 🙏

[@frenchguyst-croissant3432]

Don't seek happiness, seek peace ... All the other things that you want will come..Ive been practicing mindfulness for a couple of years and i was never getting better, it helped me in the short term but it was never lasting.. If you feel like that , don't stop .. It will come.. You don't have to look for it , you'll know when it happens.. Its been a couple months now that i'm peaceful, my life is getting better because of it , not the other way around .. I was a child the last time i felt like this , I'm 30 now
