It is simply uncanny how Tolle resembles Yoda on “Star Wars,” though he was an unknown, a total “nobody,” in 1977.
If you read the comments by viewers, this German genius has transformed many lives, and lessened his viewers’ Weltschmerz, their ‘pain about how the world is.’
Notice also from the laughter of the audience how many are female. All successful religions begin with women, who since the dawn of time are the main raisers of the children, the next generation, and by their nature are more attuned to the other world.
If this video seems like gobbledygook, well, maybe your egoic mind still rules you. It rejects freedom for you. It still wants to dominate you. Your mind is a separate entity, and afflicting you.
.
So, okay, then you perhaps need to suffer and despair for yet another year. So, fine, go ahead, and lack all inner peace, spin your wheels, and go around in circles some more, yes, well into 2023. 😉 In the fullness of time, you will be ready.
I wish at this time to underline that despite months of exhausting, round-the-clock care for Margaret, and then witnessing the misery, decline and the actual moment of death of my much-adored wife of 17 years, which caused me extreme levels of grief, frustration, anger, and loneliness, I have survived the resulting stroke-level high blood pressure.
How?
By
1) following sound medical, lifestyle and dietary advice, and
2) reading books and watching videos by Eckhart Tolle. I would be dead now, or drooling, partly paralyzed, in the corner of a nursing home without the truths he imparts to suffering people.
As always, here is the proof:

If you are going through hell, keep going. 😉
We as a race, and each of us as individuals, incarnated here of our own volition to grow.
And you can grow THIRTY TIMES FASTER here.
Bleak wisdom about life on this world as it really is by the German immigrant Karl/Charles Bukowski:

He is so relaxed, casual, mischievous, funny and intelligent. God bless him.

For me, No one has ever made more sense of spiritual teachings than this man. His words ring true from deep within. They echo so many other spiritual teachings but in a way that I am not pretending to understand. The understanding is felt from within. I cannot describe the comfort this approach brings to me and my anxious fearful self. Far better than any drug or therapy I have encountered for the past 20+ years.

One of my favorite old sayings is, “The past is history, tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That’s why it’s called the “present”.
Namaste friend.💖🙏

I love this analogy… As someone who had actually thought they were being productive, as a multi-tasker, I was never in the moment. I am thankful to recognize this and to know the difference!

“If you’re born in a mental asylum you don’t know that everyone is insane”
Such a perfect description of our world.

Thank you Eckhart! Since I was born, more than fifty years ago, I had never met someone who teaches spirituality in such a simple, clear and yet objective way. Thank you for “The power of now”, it feels as if heaven has merged with earth. We appreciate.

During school, I use to accidentally meditate in classes. There were a few instances where I became aware of my own consciousness and felt my presence and everything around me was one. Hearing Eckhart talk about this is blowing my mind.

Meditation is a beautiful word, i believe it really means living connected, in every moment, with the whole universe.

“Consciousness is constantly being absorbed by a stream of thinking.” WOW! How unbelievably accurate and simple is that statement. His words can really put your life into perspective.

When I used to work in a thrift store, I came across his books. I read them and started my spiritual journey. I then started seeing 1111. I feel like he was my beginning point for my awakening, of my spiritual growth. Thank you ❤️

What a skillful teacher! I’ve been listening to Eckhart for 20 years. All of his talks are pure gold and most leave me breathless. But this one may well be his best. Not a single redundant word in over 30 minutes. Phenomenal
