  • Eckhart Tolle has changed my life for the better. 

  • I got enlightened when I was 25 and it is true that huge enlightenment process is going on in the world. people saw I had something special and they wanted to have it, some people even got enlighened in my presence. amazing.

  • As I sit and listen to what this points toward, I get impatient and start pondering in dread about the madness that I must face in a couple of hours. Yet I still know this is nesessary to be here in this moment, to remember what is important. I'm guessing we know this happens when we can see the good in others, and that space between goodness and reactive patterns of thinking that lead to destruction. It seems that even a brief interruption of these patterns, can have a significant effect..

  • "The power which causes several portions of a plant to help each other we call life, intensity of life is also intensity of helpfulness, the ceasing of this help is what we call corruption". John Ruskin. Life is all we are but we cannot realise this because of our egoic mind which corrupts life itself.

  • Watch /watch?v=f9wF4za-YvM

    Eckhart is not a Human. He is an Entity which manifested a human body.

    He is here to Devour the minds of Many.

  • @Yaylin2 you are insaine

  • @smallpotatoes989 You have a right to speak with nebulous thought. I do not want any association with a narrow minded enemy of righteousness.

    I already tried speaking truth to you. But I refuse to continue, whereas you have a stiff neck.

    Eckhart Tolle is Satan manifested in the flesh. If you listen to his teachings, your ability to reason will be crippled greatly. I try time and time again to warn you not to worship Eckhart Tolle the Anti-Christ.

  • @MedicineAlternative thanx for hacking my pc dude. It is great.no he is not a devil, you are just ignorant.

  • The hypocrisy of living in the now. This man is not following his own teachings.

  • this man is looking at me!!!

  • this just reminds me of a nice cold filtered glass of ice water

  • You can dissolve the "hooks" that bind us to our impressions, but if you "do something" it is just the mind acting. Dissolving is possible by meditating in the transcendent ( "alive silent space") or by boggling the mind, or by some extreme physical situation (sky diving) - maybe with damage. Is there another way?

  • @burmanhands Eckhart Tolle says that his way was simply to suffer from his ego until it became unbearable. ^^ So one could say, you can *do* pretty much anything until you eventually realize that you'll only stop suffering if you stop (over-) identifying with what you do. I guess that means everybody will awaken eventually. ^^

  • What a pile of 'feel-good' new age bullshit.

  • go google living waters and take the good test!

  • Im enjoying moment listening to Eckhart's voice! i was dosing off at my ...

  • long pauses are overused, unnecessary pathos.

  • @SmokiSounds I adore him because he has no pathos at all and is for sure no drama-queen...

  • i love your teaching about living in the now, i've been trying to live that way for a while now, i know it works. but $20 a month for regular instalments and the threat of world destruction if we don't get it right. i seem to have heard this somewhere before. you don't come across as a conman but they come in all guises. you seem to be on a mission now and you're making loadsamoney. smacks of profiteering and ego to me.

  • you make me sleepy

  • Hi Bros. & sisters. Eckhart is cool and doing the best he can, and that's great. But for those who would be interested in a Zen teacher, talking about neo -darwanism and the neo movemnet of atheists, please check out Dr. Albert Low, a certified zen master. Just search on youtube for Albert Low zen, and start at part 1. Very very interesting talk and views of current and popular culture world views. He's based in Montreal Canada.

  • I don't believe that the present moment--here, now--is the only moment there is ever...because I recall making some coffee just a few moments ago, and that coffee is still hot.

  • @Fuliginosus that moment was, not is, now.

  • @Fuliginosus the coffee is still hot in the present moment that you recognize. You only recognize both your memory and the hot coffee in the present moment only. Time is always walking.

  • If we dissapear so what it's just nature creating, preserving and destroying.

    shouldn't we leave it up to the omnipotent concsiousness to decide?

    you can't go against nature because going against nature is part of nature too..is it not?

  • All that talking is a big stain in IT. If IT is so pure, we should stop talking about it, and making more innaccesible than already is. Those speeches are misleading, are a new religion, are crap.

  • wow

  • I wish I had his nose full of nickels! Eckhart is a saint, and and a precursor to the ascended masters walking the earth with us.

  • Who are we? Who are we really?

  • Spirit.

  • he put me into unconsiousness wake me when its the next moment of the future present consiousness take his meds away omg are you kidding?

  • zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzz what?????????

  • you're asleep, everyone else is awake.

  • this has opened up a whole new reality for me and it is much simpler than i ever imagined .. i remember years ago attempting to meditate but my mind was all chatter and would not stop .. the simple statement of "you are not your mind" has stopped the chatter dead in it's tracks and i have lost the idea of expectation and move ever further into moment by moment acceptance. it is saving my life :)

  • Hahaha this is great. Eckhart, you're cool. I discovered Krishnamurti a couple of months ago and he his the greatest discovery ever and now i have discovered you. Which i consider a current follow-up to Krishnaji. Good work.

  • Danke für Ihre wundervolle Präsenz!

  • haha thats true, i've always wondered why people walk around wearing the symbol of jesus' death

  • dayofwrath- just guessing but you must be an optimist ; ). You think when JC comes back he wants to see another cross? - Bill Hicks

  • you are in such suffering and can´t see through it, I pity you.

    missing the point

    Your mental noice blocks you from realizsing the message,

    snap out of it

    There is no god just the energy of YOU

  • You know I just realized something. I was getting a bit impatient and maybe even irritated with how slow Mr Tolle is speaking in this video especially during the long pauses. That made me realize how not in the moment I am. I am always trying to race on to the next moment  in this case to the end of this video.

  • @peacefulmind33 Well yeah, the reason why commercials, shows, and news keeps our attention, is because they are so quick and you don't have time to really think about what's being said, so you just sort of absorb everything that's said. That's not good, because if they say something like, "EVERYONE knows that...blah blah blah", then you automatically sort of keep that in your mind, without thinking about it. It's better to speak slowly and calmly.

  • Eternity is eternally the now moment!

    Thank you Eckhart

  • Vielen Dank, Eckhart,  für alles schöne was du uns sagst.

    Ich lese deine Bücher und fühle mich damit sehr gut. Danke für alles. Liebe Grüsse.

  • I'm in sync with all the info you posted on your site. Please subscribe to my channel. Thanks! Lori

  • HD is wonderful.

  • A while back when recovering from illness I felt as though I had a sort of revelation, like a voice inside me said 'its alright' and my worries just vanished, because I knew I didn't have to think about them. I became super confident and aware of the beauty of the world, not because it was added to me, but because my fears disappeared. Why did this happen to me? My fears have slowly started to return but I'm hoping Tolle's book will help me return to that peaceful, accepting state I had before.

  • Hi granty77

    I found wonderful side effects while I was ill. It took a little while longer when I seemed to be suffering quite a bit that I decided enough was enough When I heard the words 'you are not the thoughts in your head' and started to watch the thoughts in my head I found them to be repetiive and destructive. Who watches these thoughts? and who or what believes them?Look and see. Nothing can affect my inner sense of joy now and its wonderful.

  • That's what happened to me - I actually heard a voice which triggered a feeling of absolute relief! I suppose if I was a religious person I would call it a religious experience, but I'm not. I have been left with a feeling of connectedness with my body, and a greater empathy for other people's behaviour. It' not a psychological thing though, it's deeper than that. It connects us to God. If observing Tolle's teachings helps other people come to the same realisation, I wholeheartedly recommend it!

  • Yes granty77, a very similar thing happened to me in early 2007, it lasted a few weeks off and on, ever since I've been seeking to get back to it, yet the more I seek and learn the further I get from it. Don't do what I did and smother it with learning vast amounts of spiritual information in an attempt to recreate or control it. I don't know what the answer is, but I know where it's not, so far at least, Hope this might save you some time.

  • You experienced something profound and then the thinking that thinks it is you tried to repeat the experience. This is the nature of thinking. The real you is still there, but the thinking is thinking it is you seeking. To become permanently free from the thinking requires an intentional unwinding from it's clutches. Tolle does not provide the tools to do this.

  • Quite so, however whenever I feel I am about to rediscover it, I feel great fear of the consequences. Of course we can get into maddening descriptions of what "I" is, and that "I" is protecting itself...but I can't see the duality in real time as I did before, it feels like there is one me now, and I dare not kill him as he feels like he is me. It was different when I was in the state, so simple, yet now I can't see the wood for the trees.

  • The real you is already there. The thinking has the fear and is the one looking. You don't need to look. A simple technique to be in the now is to ask yourself OUT LOUD before any activity: "what do I need to do now? wait for the intuition (not the thinking) to answer and do what it says to

    do. When you finish that activity ask yourself again "what do I need to do now? Don't think. Do what the intuition says to do. Intuition is best felt in the upper chest area while breathing.

  • OK I'm game, let me enact your technique for a few days. Funny you mention the upper chest, I felt "located" or "seated" there are the time...was the only physical symptom other than the smoother uncontrived breathing that seemed to fall in and out of me.

  • Good man, hate his beard.

  • perfect

  • Everyone that reads this...right now, as you read my words...find the peace inside yourself. Not tomorrow, or next week. Right now...now is the time to set yourself free at last...not after you find that new job or make more money...now, where you are...do it now....

  • thank you.  :o)

  • I feel really uncomfortable with the big ad for the church of scientology , on this page .....

  • Wow! That's amazing! My tooth has been hurting for hours even though I've taken medication. I rewound this 9 1/2 minute video twice because I kept 'daydreaming' & losing my 'space'. Then the 3rd time I lost an entire 5 minutes of this 9 1/2 minute video. When I realized it my toothache was gone! He said the info wouldn't be the highest significance though. His voice is so soothing.

  • Great to see you got his message.....

    *shakes head*

  • you are now blinking manually

  • What if we're here for the reason we do anything; we just want to feel powerful, superior, cool? Are we really doing anything? Can we really do anything to speed the process of realization? It seems our minds are burning down. Can we fan the flames? Are we even the Do-er? Would we have to be detached, dissociated Aquarians, with Mercury in mystical Pisces, and the Moon in placid, grounded, uncomplicated Taurus, like Eckhart? What of the path? The individual? The human? The soul?

  • To michaelpellegrino, I totaly agree you. His teachings changed my entire life. I suffered from social anxiety disorder for many years. I was born into the cathoilc church, but at the ege of 14, i renounced it and had no religious beliefs. But at the age of 17 I accepted christ as my savior in a Christian church. It was then that I began to feel the fear of death, and fear of hell. It was there that i began to feel shameful of myself and it was there that i learned to Hate non christians!

  • lol if you feel all that since you joind "jesus" you should better leave that behind you. Church and Jesus is all a distraction from the one truth: That you are ALLREADY a piece of GOD himself. Church is exactly wha Ekhart trys to prevent.

    Chruch says: "In the future Jesus will save you" etc. The truth is you can save yourself NOW and that is waht Ekhart is saying: Live in the now

  • wat

  • Calm down dear, you'll do yourself an ~~~injury~~~ with all this SELF=righteousness! Maybe you should try listening to the silence within yourself instead of SHOUTING about Diabolical Plots = already!

    Seek and ye shall find. You go looking for Demons, you'll find Demons. The world is a reflection of what WE make because we are expressive, perceptual beings.

    However, i can't for the life of me work out what "egic" means.

  • Is that a river or a lake in the back? =D

  • The whole style of speach and the monotone is textbook hypnosis, the pregnant pauses are all part of it. It makes ordinary piffle sound like it has deep meaning. He uses the word "alert" while putting his followers to sleep.

  • I find theism, references to "god" or traditional religious writtings so distracting from the spiritual experience.

    I wish he could make it more accessable in a secular humanism way. It's like he's intentionally kissing up to organized religion just to appease. I don't mean to read his motivetive but i tried lol

    No theism is required for jouneys towards enlightenment or true peace ;)

  • no I was confusing a bit. so can I use the label god what is a personalized label of the label universe? i was confusing a liitle bit now i am seriously confusing :) so can I use the personalised label of universe anymore? or from now on shlud i use other labels since I know the label God (only the label) is only an identified label?

  • I think god is the universe. just humans identified the universe with their self. thats how god (a label) born in humans minds. with identifying. personalizing. anyhoo :) universe do exists. something must lead all this. planets etc. I label it the word universe. I cant do anything with it except labeling it. but I still like to call it god. but can I label it with the word god if I know its only a label? if someone dont agree with this theory please reply :) thanks guys :)

  • As a student of comparative religions/philosophy I have found E.T. largely complementary to most world traditions.

    He speaks the truth from the heart. I know this for when I read his books or listen to his talks his words resonate with my own heart far beneath the realm of words.

    I feel he is very sincere and helpful to many and I thank him for this.

    Many blessings! Michael

  • @michaelpellegrino I'm new to Eckhart, but what I'm appreciating about him, is actually the fact that he speaks so slowly. It's much easier for me to keep track of what he is saying. Sometimes other people are going so quickly that I will miss things, and need to rewind the video in order to get the message; but with him I don't have that problem at all.  He speaks with a speed that is very easy for my mind to process and keep hold of.

  • I own three books by Eckhart Tolle, and am deeply influenced by his teachings, so I know the power of them.

    However... I cannot get myself to grasp why ET doesn't just tape himself and post to Youtube like many others do; free of charge. Especially since he points out the importance and urgency of the world becoming conscious.

    Money can hardly be the issue, so why would anyone add an unnecessary obstacle to the important message he's trying to spread?

    It's mind boggling, really.

  • Why does it matter that Eckhart doesn't use email? Is there something wrong with the internet or with emails, or is he trying to make a statement about himself? This statement occupied my mind for quite a while and made i difficult to be fully alert. Thanks anyway :-)

  • i get it, the internet allows consciousness and presence to spread :-P

  • -Proverbs 8- C.S. Lewis: There are two equal & opposite errors into which our mind can fall about the devils. One is to disbelieve in their existence; the other is to believe & feel an unhelathy interest in them.They themselves are equally pleased by both errors,& they hail a materialist(atheist,Et follower)or a magician(MarianneW.&followers) with THE SAME DELIGHT!....the powers of darkness have blinded the minds, hearts & souls of the folowers of these false teachers & their pupils - lost souls

  • A benign father could never eternally burn a soul made in His own image for its temporary mistakes on earth. The idea of eternal punishment is illogical. A soul is forever made in the image of God. Even a million years of sin could not change its essential, divine character. Would you throw your own child into a hot fiery stove and hope he burns forever? Then how could God with infinite greater love than you will ever know throw you into an eternal fire.

  • Man, influenced by delusion, ascribes to the all loving God a vindictive spirit that creates hells and purgatories. The idea of eternal damnation for souls made in the image of God is untenable and should be exploded and banished as a superstition from the minds of men. The world hell is from the Anglo-Saxon root "helan", to conceal. The greek root is "helios", sun or fire. Therefore it depicts the hell-fire you create inside you.

  • Well you are not God-spaceman-&so it goes! Here is who we are considering believing and trusting in! Our Heavenly Father who would send His Son to be born, live and bring us his message of: "Good News of Salvation" and die a death on the cross for the redemption of ours sins. And be resurrected so mankind could see He WAS The Son Of God. Or an LSD using made-up doctrine denegrating the Creator God and claiming it's NOW! him? He teaches the false dogma of; reincarnation and human works?NotTheSame

  • seems like U R an angry person....??? With all your lecturing ....U could B the false teacher,,,,,,GOD loves ALL of us.....JUST CALM DOWN YOU WILL BE ALL RIGHT......little GUY.

  • Tlexiktli - I saw you had made/posted a ~beautiful video~on Quanah Parker. I have The Time-Life series of 19 books on: "The West" and two are on "The Indians" and have a very wonderful series of old pictures. I watched your video, and loved that it had "Quanah's girls" on there. I did not see his mother's picture? I also read the book: "~Ride The Wind~" which is a fictionalized version of Cythia Parkers capture and her becoming Quanah's mother. As a Social Worker, do you promote Tolle's books?

  • Nah, I don't promote people's products, just wellness, but that wellness is defined by the client and the clients goals and values. Learning how to meditate is a tool or skill and I have seen it help a lot of people.

  • I used to trip that Quanah had so many wives, but it was because so many men had been killed, there was a shortage of men, so it was out of need and not religion or culture. I had one picture his mother but didn't fit it in. All My Relations!

    PS: Tolle's core teaching are very consistant with some Native American Teachings and beliefs. Even though I have access to traditional ceremonies and practices Tolle's book really helped me through the death of my sister in law this last Dec.

  • Don't The Native American tribes recognize "One" Creator? One Holy God? And His creating all things? And "we" are His: creations? What did Tolle say that helped in (so very sorry for you & your family!) sister in laws death?(My husband takes product for a Native tribes, logging operations, and I go with him, as often as I can. While he went up to the logging area, last time I went, I stayed in town and watched some eagles go back and forth from a nest, right behind a home there. )

  • Not only is every Tribe different, there are various differences with in tribes, with in bands, clans, and families. The missionaries crushed a lot of Native Religion, but there are so many that survive, The NAC, The Indian Shaker Church, 7 Drum, Smoke House, and on and on and on. Don't trip out on Dogma, it leads you astray from love and compassion, etc. LOVE, FAITH, HOPE, CHARITY.

  • What do you think of the Exclusive Claim of Jesus Christ? He said He alone was the Unique Triune Living God. And the way to the Father. That He was Truth. And Perfect. None other was: perfect. And Not a: Liar. His attributes are His essence. We can find them, now in Scripture. He left us. Would Perfect Love, be expressed in the birth, life and resurrection of Jesus Christ? Tolle teaches "reincarnation" not Resurrection. There is a complete difference. Not the same. Jesus makes an Exclusive claim

  • Unto you,O men,I call:& my voice is to all the sons of man.O ye simple ones, understand Wisdom:& you fools, be of an understanding heart:Listen for I will speak of excellant things;& from the opening of my lips, will come right words, for my mouth will speak Truth.They are plain to him who understands,& right to those who find knowledge.Receive my instruction & not silver;& knowledge rather than choice gold.For wisdom is better than rubies;& all things one may desire cannot be compared with her

  • On a lot of these Echart videos I see the same couple of names commenting ad nauseum, talking all sort of nonsense about Satan and were all going to hell etc. I look on them as being a test of being present :)

  • I look at them as the cry for help of people who are utterly and completely identified with the dogma they once adopted.

    This is because of the frantic desperation this kind of spamming radiates. As if they are frantically trying to close all 'leaks' that are supposedly causing their religion to 'drown', only to find new leaks appearing again and again.

    All the while, the real leak is their own lack of faith. Otherwise they wouldn't have that need to convince others so desperately.

  • There is no argument worth making. The practice of being present minded is the only way to experience the truth. Anything else Eckhart says is to help you discover this primary truth. Do not get lost in the words. See Beauty and life arise from the heavens NOW.

  • Transformation of consciousness is indeed happening to everyday people. Have you seen the documentary film, "A Course In Miracles Unleashed" which documents the process of spiritual enlightenment as experienced through the practice of A Course In Miracles?

  • if you cant see it ,your just like the rest ,fuck off ,wake up , this guy talks about the essence of life,very few understand it ....... i know what you dont

  • Just terrible. Another demon influenced follower of Satan. Now masquerading as a prophet? Now we can all see that the end of days - is almost here. To have allowed a mad-man to enter into the - spiritual business. And who's spirit? Not God's. It is the same serpent of old. Saying the same things. This man speaks of nothing found in the actual Scripture that Jesus taught. It is all a lie. He dismisses the Deity of Jesus. Deems reincarnation replaces resurecction. And pretends to be christ? please

  • You do know he did exist before Oprah right? Oprah just helped him gain attention because she happened to find his book helpful. Nevertheless, that does not discredit his realizations about existence or his intentions to share it with the world. I have always felt a spiritually seeking in line of what Eckhart Tolle speaks about. He challenges you to take responsibility for your life, you are what you think after all, no one can affect the world within your mind except you.

  • ~ there are hundreds of these Eastern philosopies. They are not compatible with Christianity. In all their many forms.They deny Biblical Trinity.The Deity Of Christ. The doctrines of atonement, sin & salvation by grace thru the sacrifice of Jesus.They replace resurrection with reincarnation, & true grace & faith with human works.One cannot achieve peace with God thru any of these sects. Peace with God is not found in looking inside oneself, but looking UP to HIM, to Jesus the Christ,theLIvingGod

  • You might be right. It is possible. Please believe me, I have encountered beliefs such as your own over many, many years, and in many, many people. I have tried, in my early years, to adopt them as my own. But I have never been able to find truth in them. The simple truth Tolle speaks of reflects everything I have known, and yet still sought in my heart, since I was a young child.

    As I said, perhaps you are right. Perhaps my heart is wrong and your beliefs are right.

    Only God knows.

  • When the verse from Scripture: John 15:4 - tells us "Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in Me." - this one Scripture alone tells us that Eckhart Tolle is NOT "the vine". Jesus is. And who should we "abide" with. Jesus as our Savior, counselor, comfort & Lord of our lives. This verse does not say - "do what you want, decide self-rule". It tells us that there is a True Source of all Spiritual Knowledge~

  • Thanks for your response, memama2. I do understand your interpretation of these matters. I just have a somewhat different understanding of both the bible and of Eckhart's teachings, but that is beyond the scope of a short post to a forum such as this. I would only respectfully point out that Tolle does not suggest anything like "do what you want, decide self-rule". Quite the contrary. And I really belief that if you read or listen to his words carefully, you will come to understand this.

  • Tolles entire book stands in opposition to the Entire Spiritual message. He deletes the resurecction & invents the fake stand-in:reincarnation. He insists his "brain vibrations" and thoughts mean more than the power of Scripture to come into a persons life and make a profound difference. And that would be through the grace and faith Jesus brings us, when we accept His gift of Salvation. Tolle says: human works and self-will are good enough. And it does not matter anyway - you're your own christ

  • Perhaps you ought to actually listen to what Tolle is saying, you never know you may actually benefit greatly from it! ;)

  • Which to choose from for demon influence over their miss-oracles? Let's see, we have Tolle telling lies about Jesus Christ, Salvation, the Deity of The Son of God; Jesus Christ. Tells other to listen only to his fake god-hood for fraud information about his spiritual dead end. Then our old contender, demon=possed=channeler of satanic messages from the pit of hell?Marianne Williamson! Her blashpemous demon she decided to name? "jesus". To publicaally vomit onto the One True Holy God.PatheticLIEs

  • Sorry but I'm not Christian so what you choose to hold as true it's universal but rather relative to your particular situation. I don't believe in your god, your jesus, your heaven or your hell or demons. God does not exist, nor does the devil or any of this it's all figments of ppl with overactive imaginations. It's 2009 cop the fuck on and grow up! Christianity is nothin more than paganism in disguise. nothin is original in it it all false like religion in general.

  • ...we see the EPIC FAIL of this false cult in the new video:...Eckhart Tolle - The Diabolical Plot Behind The Teachings..........and YouTube video: ....Church of Oprah #1.........and then read the entire books cons and contradictions.........at - Stushie.wordpress - This fallen person is a false prophet. Denying Holy God. And ego-ick-seeshsss telling others his words are now better than Holy Scripture and his dogma now making himself the new christ? His claim? hes THE GREAT I AM?=notAWAKENEDyet!

  • go fuck yourself

  • ~ " A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold, in a setting of silver" ~ Proverbs 25

  • ah... jesus...

  • wow this dude is weird

    and boring id rather watch a cartoon of a talking penis

  • People, please don't be sheeple. This guy is leading you down the road to failure. Please research the word for the truth. Oraph and Mr. Tolle are not the Truth!

  • How is being aware of the now, leading to failure? Lightin up and God bless U!

  • i know right all this crap is a bunch of lies to mislead people so oprah can have her freaken church

  • This is wonderful. I didn't know Eckhart was on YouTube, but now that I know I will be checking back regularly. I feel better just listening to him-there is a wonderful energy there...if you really move into that moment with him. I am so grateful. Thank-you.

  • Comment removed

  • Please more new videos mr. Tolle! NAMASTE!

  • You are reading this now.

  • HI. waiting for another session please... For no reason other than we just like hearing from you, Mr. Tolle. thankyou.

  • Amazing, to the ppl that are discussing below: The Now is more fulfilling than any of those sentences.

  • Thank you everyone, for giving a marvelous display of what ego is. ;)

  • Thank you for your light hearted and truthful comment. I was reading the drama and laughing at the ironic situation. YouTube is great because you can get the "best of both worlds" with the truth of a spiritual teacher who speaks on stillness, love and presence, and then the blessed beings who are leaving comments of the ego. Very dynamic. Not much like the state of peace where all is one. This is a demonstration of the world of duality. Love it. Love you. Having a great time forgiving myself.

  • I think you are on meds because I am an american and montsyblackmaddona?/??if you care less about my comment why say anything at all use your brain next time keep listening to slowly talking tolle and sink deeper into to stupidness

  • your STUPID would be correct this way..

    You're stupid. Contraction of YOU and are.. but since you are so intellectual and wise you have missed my point all together. Did I say anything about following his teachings? And if you think I don't know how to spell WORD...CRACK UP. HURDY DURH. You obviously flunked ENGLISH class! Tolle may talk slow, but your thinking is at a stand still. 31 years OLD.??? DANG, If you can't take the criticism smarty pants don't dish it out. SMUG AND STUPID.

  • yes so the dumber people are they can hear him anyone with intellgence of reality would not listen to this that is why he speaks so slow and he knows he is lying

  • So are you saying Lisalizapop  that smart people are fast talkers? Or that liars talk slow? Or Both?

    And how come you don't have any puntuation marks in your comment.? Are those new smart people rules or do truth tellers leave out punctuation marks? I am just wondering because I am a really dumb american idiot looking for the answers to life on YOU TUBE. LOL

  • Must he speak so slowly?

  • Paying attention to the silent spaces between the words is just as important as -- if not more important than -- listening to what the words point to --> stillness.

    The segment from 6:35 - 7:23 talks somewhat about this.

    P.S.: Would you believe my favorite moment is 1:26 - 1:38?! lol For someone like myself who's been burdened by over-analyzing everything all my life, I'm gradually discovering the healing power of stillness. Blessings on your journey.

  • Thanks for this

  • i'll see you in phoenix! :)

  • "...So if you can sense a certain shift inside you at this moment, sensing an increased sense of aliveness, of alert stillness, then the transformation of human consciousness is already beginning to happen, here and now, and it's happening here, now, in the only place where it can happen -- it's in yourself."

    Powerful! I'm definitely feeling the shift. Thank you Mr. Tolle for your Presence.

  • i love you!! thank you so much for all your wonderful teachings and books!! You have truly saved me!

  • Thank you for EckhartTolle. tv. Thank you Eckhart for speaking to us directly. Of course, it is not so much the speaking as the deep experience of Presence that is being shared here. The outer senses are always seeking excitement and stimulation so it is necessary to tune in to Presence which is so much deeper than sense perceptions. It can seem empty and boring to the busy mind that has been so active in our experience for so long. You are truly a great example to us all.

  • Why doesn't the HD work?

    No picture no sound.

  • why you need hd? voice in stereo? seeing echarts face in more detail?

  • hmmm mustymadonna,

    please calm down.

  • Staaaaaall.

  • he does take his time. but i think he wants to be an example of not getting excited and remaining, thoughfully in the now. Ever notice how everyone today yacks so fast, trying to shove in as many words as possible before the person they are speaking to interupts and starts shoving their 2 cents in. The last generatoin was much calmer and co-operative in their conversation...more relaxed and meaningful.

  • Hmm... it's much like that, yes. On the other hand it's good with knowledge, but stress and exhaustion is a big problem =/

  • not sure what u mean.

  • T H A N K Y O U

  • Keep up the great work Mr. Tolle, the divine is working through you, humanity = the true divine, will transcend this world of division, judgment and hate both religious and political. Love to you, thank you, you have awakened me to the love of the Oneness that is all that is, peace to you.

  • hahaha, what an introduction! made me laugh :) no offense, but the monotone and commanding voice saying "welcome to the present moment. now. the only moment there is. ever." was kinda fun.

    eckhart is a great spiritual teacher though. he has my deepest admiration :)

  • i thought it was funny too lol

  • But immedietaly after he says "ever"

    peace comes:P

    not anger:P

    phew!

  • I love the directness of this video. It so much more engaging then E.T.'s usual videos. I feel more inclined to be as present as I can be. *****

  • thank you for this effort. i can feel the rightness of this, and that proves the truth of it.

  • When you call yourself a Muslim or a Christian or a European, or anything else, you are being violent. Do you see why it is violent? Because you are separating yourself from the rest of mankind. When you separate yourself by belief, by nationality, by tradition, it breeds violence. So a man who is seeking to understand violence does not belong to any country, to any religion, to any political party or partial system; he is concerned with the total understanding of mankind.
