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.

Realizing that I am not my thoughts - that I don't need to listen to them, that I can simply observe them - is one of the greatest gifts I have ever received. My mind used to keep me miserable, worried, angry - every single day. After practicing Eckhart's teachings I now only feel that way sometimes, and even then I have a way out. I now realize that I create my own suffering, and that I can stop doing this any time I choose. I can accept this very moment as it is and stop producing needless suffering. The past has loads of regret, resentment. The future holds so much fear, worry. But Now everything is OK. And Now IS everything.

This hectic world we live in today is evermore designed to frustrate our minds, and when our mind is continuously frustrated it makes us all unhappy and anxious, and the more we live in our minds the more we're distracted from our truest essence of being, which is knowing the kingdom of God within us. Thanks Eckhart.🙏

@stephenflood3463 2 ай бұрын

@@ianIccyStewart Exactly. We don't have to get carried away all the time with the stream of thoughts passing through our human mind because the omnipresent flow of consciousness is constantly permeating throughout the entire universe regardless of what we think. So we ought to be able to have control over our mind rather than our mind have control over us. Awakened people are highly aware of this and they are able to harness the constant flow of consciousness to bring forth more light unto themselves and in to the world.✨

" Learn silence. And at least with your friends, with your lovers, with your family, with your fellow travellors here, sit in silence sometimes. Don´t go on gossiping, don´t go on talking. Stop talking, and not only on the outside - stop the inner talk. Be in an interval. Just sit, doing nothing, just being presences to each other. And soon you will start finding a new way to communicate. And that is the right way. Start communicating through silence sometimes. Holding the hand of your friend, sit silently. Just looking at the moon, feel the moon, and both feel it silently. And see, a communion happens - not only communication, but a communion. Your hearts start beating in the same rhythm. You start feeling the same space. You start feeling the same joy. You start overlapping each other´s being. That is communion. You have said without saying anything, and there will be no misunderstanding."

@stephenflood3463 2 ай бұрын

I agree with you, and if only human beings could do that more often, but unfortunately they are way too busy identifying with their minds or being preoccupiededly stimulated by social media nonsense and video games to even recognize our silent communion with the divine presence in all things.

@littlewarcovers 2 ай бұрын

This is so true. One doesn't necessarily need to subscribe to spiritual beliefs to appreciate the power of presence, , test the practice and find for yourself.... Since my awakening, I've come to realize that moments of true happiness weren't solely about external factors like relationships or activities; they were about tapping into the spaciousness of presence within. Now, I can still cherish those experiences, but I no longer depend on them for my inner peace. It's a liberating realization, and I hope more people discover this innate source of contentment within themselves.

Because your mind is an instrument you use, not who you are. If you think you are your mind then misidentification occurs resulting in much confusion. Once you have the direct experience of yourself (meeting yourself on the inside), then you never need experience pain or suffering ever again. You are not the body and you are not the mind.
