Eckhart Tolle on Transforming Suffering into Awakening 

Don't be afraid. It will all make sense in the end. The end is something that comes for all of us. Something many of us like to ditch. It's an unpleasant truth ... Please take care ! 🙏

Much love to you Olivia

Facing your troubles head-on without denial is an important step, and you've taken it. Good for you. Life and health are amalgamations of many factors. I've done many things right consistently, but I was missing sanctity, prayer and worship. Eckhart Tolle gave me the proper way to pray: being present and fully bringing yourself forth. And through Paul Chek I found my saint or deity, Quan Yin. She is a very powerful boddhisattva of compassion. I will pray for your suffering to alleviate tomorrow, because I believe in you. Much Love, Mikko Murmeli ❤

Bless you Olivia. I hope that even with not the best of health you still have some more adventures and as you say with a back seat driver, present but not holding the steering wheel. I've turned 60 and I'm just waking up to this clever man's teachings. Definitely better late than never for us. Much love and respect to you.

99% of our happiness and unhappiness is a direct result of the stories we tell ourselves, positive stories are better than negative stories that's for sure, but no story at all is best of all 🙏🙏🙏🙏

The mind has the ability to realise a lot of things. We shall work, make stuff, create,.. What kind of fruits do you bear? You as a living being

@@Bosna-jm2nw the mind doesn't know anything we don't know ourselves, it just pretends to the know the future, what other people are thinking, and what other people think of us. The mind is a wonderful servant but an awful master 🙏🙏🙏🙏

@@johngreen4683 thank you👍🏻✌️

🙏🏼💕🙏🏼

Tom petty said most thing i worry about never happen any way in his song I've always loved that lyric thanks for the quote I'll keep that one with me

wow love it

eckhart with social media filters is hilarious

⁠​​⁠I was kind of surprised he allowed the filter to begin with. Also, the compilations aren’t good. Even worse, the speeding up of his speech on some recordings. Marketing ploys!

Love for eckart from india

He is aye? ❤

​@@jim-se5xc ha?

U ok?

Your picture makes a person smile too Caroline.

Beautiful, thank you

Very helpful, thank you

Sounds like wonderful advice, thank you for sharing 🙏🙏🙏🙏

That's wonderful.

OMG did not know he was that old? He looks 56 years old.

The curvature of his back suggests that he has osteoporrhosis

That's really great to hear man, and it's times like that when Eckharts presence and wisdom is needed the most. I wish you well!🙏

Same here, I had some very tough years after my first awakening experiences. It's not a smooth ride, there are lots of ups and downs.

Bist Du bereit? Das Ego ist der Widerstand ,es klagt Das Leben an... Es will höher stehen als alle Sterne Gottes und Hochmut des Bewusstseins kommt vor seinem "Fall" Ich bin noch nicht gestorben in die Vertikale und bin noch nicht bereit ,für die Transzendenz, Brauch ich noch mehr Leiden, sorgt dafür die zeit und klopft an meine Tür: Bist Du jetzt bereit?

💜🙏💜

If you tell yourself it's trauma you increase suffering. If you are really listening properly you will notice how much growth can be achieved through deep suffering. Transcend suffering by changing the self talk first.

What exactly did you do to achieve that freedom if you allow me to ask, I have been working for about 20 years and at this moment everything is more complicated rather than easier in my existence.

Past can not change anything and in reality there is nothing called future... Being now🎉 ​@@CarlosLlanderal

@@CarlosLlanderalit’s not doing or achievement, you just remember who you are.

😇😇😇😇😇😇😇🙏✨ more LIGHT shines through 💔a cracked heart.

​@@CarlosLlanderal I feel you.

Nonsense

​@@khalidshah5048 you're so funnnnny! 🤡

The problem is we think we should be happy all the time and something is wrong if we are not, we think life should be wonderful all the time so when it's not we feel something is wrong. Accept what is, Trust what will be and be very Grateful for everything 🙏🙏🙏🙏

I have had flashes of real awakening. Now it is all i want from life. The surface stuff is no ti nteresting any more

I know Eckhart is adorable! 💜

​​@@midnightblue2893lol, yes, he's an absolute legend!😊

yes, and you and me can feel this way easily as well. I have changed my life with Eckhard learnings.

Our mind doesn't want to let go of suffering. It will hold on for dear life for fear of us disappearing altogether. I find the same thing and i'm determined to take it day by day and chip away at this problem.

We like to suffer ( in a few words ).

Come on already I AM! Let’s have just ONE 1️⃣ moment of silence.

@T_elegram_chat-Eckhart_live You're the unequivocal source of presence; the master of awareness and peace; your soul evolved through suffering and that is why your wisdom is so profound. The genius makes sense of suffering. The transcendent spirit shines peacefully and brightly as the Sun. 🙏

agree!

Which is the true tragedy of being human and the reason we will never have lasting peace and will likely destroy ourselves at some point.

Only if you allow it to teach you. It’s very easy to get stuck if you’re alone and have no support. Sadly, this is true for so many and why suffering continues.

I agree, suffering is the greatest teacher and spiritually awakening is graduation day. But then the teacher pushes us a little further until we get our masters degree, where we might become a master like Eckhart someday, lol.

@@shawnsmith4692 or alternatively, come to accept who we truly are and choose to save ourselves and the world around us instead 🙏🙏🙏🙏

the person who suffers the most is the closest to transcending. They say

have you a read ‘A New Earth’? I like it more than Power of Now

Me too! On my third reading now. Still pulling value from each page. Wow!

There are always people who care. You have to find your own own peace. E is a great teacher for this. The world is here to awaken you not to make you happy awakening is so much deeper the absence of suffering.❤

💜🙏💜

agreed! you are very right.

@T_elegram_chat-Eckhart_live Thank you so much! God bless you!

You sound like me and I'm also 73. Eckhart's teaching is the light I follow out of the darkness.

Same here I’m 47. Hope u will feel good soon.

Maybe you have been waiting for the wrong one to finally show up and fix it all for you. But he was always there, lurking inside you, all along. Say hello.

Keep listening to Eckhart. It will change you. Search youtube for Omega 1-8, a series Eckhart did. I listen over and over and it has really helped.

What about what’s inside you versus what surrounds you? Sometimes feeling into my body like Tolle talks about in his books helps. Get out of mind/into soul (or at least into body) Watching thoughts also helps. Sending virtual hugs.

67 years old here… surrounded by so much death and loss… losing my dearest friends through death….while I am in chronic pain. These times are honestly hard. I believe we need more insight and support from our culture for managing this time of life. I don’t know you, but I am reaching out my heart in support to you from across the miles✨

And just recently I realised that everything that happens to anyone of us is not a coincidence but everything has a reason to happen. Nobody out there is trying to get you, it's our own past lives karmas and this life's freewill getting on us.

Yes! Not only can it break it ...it IS the ego! Blessings! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

@T_elegram_chat-Eckhart_live Much love to you and also for your service to all Blessings all around🙂

Excellent understanding of inner peace! What is the statement you are making with the fruit, vegetables, and sun emojis!? I understand it to mean that you can have even more inner peace if you eat properly and get some vit d. But I would like to know what you actually meant!

​@@instructivesilence359 This is about being present within the inner body. We give the body what it wants, rather than what the egoic mind thinks and believes that it needs! Raw fruit, salads & vegetables are a human beings species specific foods. We have a inner body of a Frugivore. (This needs to be studied and experimented with. A good place to start would be to google 'Natural Hygiene.') We also need sunlight energy for the inner body to function at an optimal level in the present moment, it brings us more clarity & focus. The inner body is constantly in the present moment, at all times, as is every other animal in nature. Indeed, we do gain a deeper sense of peace in the present moment, when we become established on our species specific foods. Astonishing results await those who are brave enough to let go of what they think and believe, and travel, deep within... Feeling half our age, energy in abundance, sleeping like babies, and growing older gracefully without any pain or medications. 🍏🍎🍐🍊🍌🍉🍇🍓🍈🍒🍑🍍🍅🥝 🥑🥒🥗🌞

@@instructivesilence359 Hello. I did reply but the comment may have been deleted by youtube because it went against their policy? But you should have an email of this comment?

@@CitrusSimonthank you for your reply and no, I didn't get to see it. But thanks all the same. You seem like a really cool person

 The statement I am making with the fruit, vegetables, and sun emojis, is about being fully present within the inner body
. This is often overlooked in spiritual development, as many of us are not aware that it is even possible to be fully present within the inner body.

 Firstly we have to discover, who and what we are, then discover what foods does the inner body prefer for optimal health of the inner body. 
(Google ’Natural Hygiene.’ This will shed some light into who are what we are and our species specific foods of raw fruits, raw vegetables and raw salads. We are Frugivores.

) Once the inner body is in a state of optimal health, which also requires sunlight energy, this becomes a solid reliable foundation to built our hopes and dreams upon over the longer term.
 We all have an egoic mind, which is capable of thinking and believing what the inner body needs. It has various theories and belief systems about this, which has nothing to do with the reality of the inner body.

 The inner body is a part of Nature, and it constantly operates in the present moment, just like any other species of animal or plant on our planet.

 The only thing that does not live in the present moment is the egoic mind, which lives either in the past or the future. 

Once a person lets go of their egoic mind, and becomes established on our species specific foods, and absorbing sunlight energy, then astonishing results happen.

 A person feels younger, I feel half my age, I have energy all day long in abundance, sleep like a baby, and maybe the best thing all, is growing older gracefully into old age, without any pain, memory loss, or medications.

 Eckhart has some amazing teachings on becoming present, and letting go of what we think, this is mainly to do with a shift in our consciousness, a perceptive ability.
 He has deeply inspired me, and continues to do so. Yet, even deeper still, is the inner body, independent of any idea or concept, that constantly operates in the present moment.
 Once we align our consciousness within the inner body, we become liberated on the spiritual and physical levels, a incredible combination, that results in levels of presence and awareness, that results in joining with Nature.

 We become Nature. No longer isolated with our own thoughts, fears, feelings, ideas, and belief systems
. This is our victory over the egoic mind…
We Join with Nature, we become present with them! 

It sounds simple, and it is, yet joining with the rest of Nature has such depths, insights, and perceptions, which the egoic mind finds totally unfathomable.

 We no longer simply exist and survive like the egoic mind does, and we are transported into a world within the present moment, where vibrant health, wellbeing, bliss, joy and creativity are everyday normal events, we truly become alive.
