SWEET AZ !!!

I realized that the Energy and Force are two different things 💜

You already said that, sir

or enlightenment

Hahaha. You sound so stupid. You will never understand reality through feelings only through logic and reason and the astounding success of science has proven that.

@@animusutimperiumk8575 .The astounding success of science hasn't found the formula for peace in one's life yet. Yet we seem to think egoic logic will save the Human race. That kind of logic will lead to an explosive end. If you use impartial logic when listening to a spiritual teacher what the genuine teachers are saying makes perfect sense. But on a much deeper level. But, unlike science, where numbers and equations can give you the proof you need, realizing your true nature can only be experienced. All teachings that teach of who you are at your essence by-passes mundane egoic calculations, and get to the core issues of exsistance. Which all of humanity's geniuses could never explain. I know you responded hoping to stir the shit up. But I sense you are genuinely seeking. This teaching can point to that placed in you, that will end your seeking. Peace.

Really? I can understand him.

Teachings are meant to be understood not felt.

Everything you talk about is miccha ditthi (wrong view). There is no such thing as a soul nor divine consciousness, everything is impermanent and non-self. The only 'task' is to bring out cessation of the five khandas.

Abhishek "The body is material which differentiates but consciousness is eternal which integrates." That's a great sentence.

It sounds good but it is fundamentally flawed. Consciousness isn't eternal, it arises due to causes and conditions, and when those causes and conditions are no longer present it ceases. I recommend reading these pages from Ajahn Brahm's book 'Mindfulness, Bliss and Beyond'. The annotations are included if you want to check the various Nikayas to see what the Buddha actually said about these matters (Eckhart and many other modern teachers like to quote the Buddha, and most of them steal the majority of their teachings from Buddhism, but they don't penetrate deeply enough, and this is one of the several areas they remain ignorant of). books.google.com.au/books?id=ptmMsW16fqkC&pg=PA202&lpg=PA202&dq=consciousness+speck+of+feces+buddha&source=bl&ots=7HFILhpW9Z&sig=4MTbFf6DTgu2JetRsogDsF1ngVI&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjMq7ip3e3RAhXHm5QKHVRiBXUQ6AEIGzAA#v=onepage&q=consciousness%20speck%20of%20feces%20buddha&f=false

MrGunwitch Interesting. I find it agreeable enough to observe the temporal nature of a mind's fleeting presence in time, as pointed out by Nidāna Saṃyutta in that link; and fair enough to say that the body may have more relative permanence than the changing mental identity in time. However, I disagree with the implication that physical reality would have more permanence than spirit. The source of life as a spiritual essence supersedes other forms of being mentioned, as spirit comes before matter and is the source of creation. When people like Eckhart Tolle speak of "consciousness" I believe they mean to convey something of the self which is more closely connected to that spiritual source of life than is the physical body. Because while the physical body may have more stability within a temporal reality, it also has greater limitation, as it is defined mainly by that reality, rather than the mind which can be determined more by the spirit which resides primarily outside of that reality's limitations. ...At least those are my own musings on the subject. Think what you will.

Hi Keith. I understand what you are saying, but you need to be careful when using concepts like 'spirit' or 'cosmic consciousness' or 'eternal consciousness' etc. All of these terms are essentially the same thing, creative creations of the ego, so that it can believe it will exist in perpetuity (in complete happiness no less!). Anyone using these concepts has yet to fully penetrate non-self (Anatta) which is one of the key factors of stream-entry (the first stage of enlightenment). Unfortunately Eckhart is 'guilty' of the same mistake that many meditators and yogis have made over the millennia. What makes it difficult to see, is that the meditative absorption's are extremely profound experiences, and involve states where one feels 'infinite consciousness' and 'one with the universe'. So when Eckhart and Ramana Maharishi and others talk about these things, they are speaking the truth, which is what makes it so difficult to argue with. However, they are only speaking partial truth (or proxy truth), they have yet to go deeper. If they continued on the same path of letting go that took them to their partial realisations then they would see EVERYTHING disappear. Everything is causal and non-self, even the stream of consciousness between lives (Citta) which seems perennial but is not. The fact that these partial realisations that sages like Tolle and Maharishi have understood, are so far beyond the conception of the average person, makes the mistake all the more difficult to spot, because people like Eckhart do really seem to be in possession of esoteric knowledge. This is why the Buddha said that without the guidance of another enlightened being (Ariyan) one would be unable to truly break the 'eggshell' and become enlightened, because there are these tricky cul de sacs that people get caught in, and without an enlightened one telling you "Yes that is a profound experience you've had...now let it go and go deeper...let the 'knower' go, let 'spirit' and the ground of all being go'....keep going till cessation...."without someone guiding you in such a fashion, you will never get there.

Wow that was deep!!!

Agree although consciousness doesn’t obtain. It is already conscious but it just wants to play using the universe

Facts!

myreddays and also ram dass's favorite "get a grip inside!!!"

All my respect for your comment. We humans are extremely limited, in every sense, have been around this (young) planet for a very short time and not able to recognize anything similar to the "truth" concerning our life, the "universe" or "cosmos" or any other entity we try do define. I think it's useless to theorize and to look for explanations, trying to grasp some "truth", I prefer to just live, as other animals do, and try to enjoy our really short stay on this planet. Ciao Claudio

Ballsac Deluxe explain yourself please

What he’s saying is partly true, spiritual awakening is unique in all cases and it happens when it’s supposed to happen not when the ego wants to be enlightened, watching Eckhart’s videos won’t get you to proper awakening because you are just using the mind to try and understand enlightenment, don’t take one persons words as fact,what Eckhart is explaining is solely experiences from his enlightenment process which is not the same for everyone

+james kutty Joseph yes it is available in india in any popular book store

buy in amazon or flipkart a life changing book for enlightment spiritually.

Haha yes???

i wonder why

William Brooks lmao that's so random

William Brooks that's The head band from Naruto

It's the false identification of ego, with the mind. We are not our mind, we are eternal spiritual being

Bs

Sahil Rajpal It is also about awareness. I am not the thinker but the observer or watcher of the "thinker". Consciousness awareness. The observer does not judge, or label and has no identity...it just observes...and that is the God self. Try observing without thinking and you're there.-the Zen Diaper

bjobotts yes absolutely right.

John is right

Staci Osorio ah. That right there will be your journey. Start right there.

Understand you’re we’re created strong enough to be alone, to handle it all. The higher being’s (universe) strength is in you, but it starts with positive thinking & doing & trusting the universe

The Divine qualities of Sat-chit-ananda cannot be revealed without taking on the form of the temporal Universe and in the process illusionizes (The Hindus call it Maya) itself as individual life forms. In that sense Maya could be called as mega-ego. Without that we as individual life forms become nonexistent. Similar to a microcosm, the Ultimate too can be thought of as passing through Deep sleep(Total dissolution of the Universe) and samadhi(enlightenment). That is the way it is.

@@Grateful2Life The way it is is Love and Maya is Love. All the known and the unknown is Love. The perceivable and the unperceivable is Love.There is nothing else

Without speaking of the universe. You as a human what do you like the most in life ? To find it, didn't you have to know/follow/trust yourself ? And when you're suffering don't you ask yourself why am I suffering ? And then when you realise what makes you suffer, don't you want to change it ? If you don't realise yourself, how can you move on ?

Experience... the many computations and combinations and evolution.. but mayb e man kind's experience to to live from true self so man kind can live harmoniously... maybe we shed our knowledge of our divinity so we can enjoy the road back while in the illusion of separateness.. I don't know.. every thing needs a hobby or purpose.. 'to know one's self' seems as good explanation as any. Some would say there is no divine purpose.. but I like thinking there is.

Skot Bi I do a course called Avatar.. and it teaches that I am not a victim, so I have some responsibility in attracting the suffering, and gives us tools to discover and discreate our part in creating our suffering (and contributing to the collective consciousness). It's pretty powerful, so yes, I ask myself why am I suffering, then find out and do something about it without having to blame anyone or get revenge. Just handle the belief/vibration that's attracting it to me..thanks for posting.

The essence that is you, which animates the entire universe is true unconditional love. You are willing to experience everything that you're not and to absolutely forget who you are, in order to know yourself fully. The one asking why, is the thinking mind which is that what you are not. It can never experience true contitional love, because it does not truly exist, it is just a bundle of thoughts. Only you can know yourself as the eternal one conscioussness. Calm the mind and you will know for yourself.

its not worth thinking about

Im Am Sirius B I can see how followers of traditional religions would object to Tolle, as well as some atheists.

Im Am Sirius B Maby,, just MABY.. its because they live in a other universe? There could be 10 reasons why someone dislikes this video. Does not mean it is out of disrespect, could be. could be not. Why worry about something like that? Its not in your control, so its not your problem.

Dougy doug​ your right.. respect king #Peace

O and, what a amazing video. His words about outward and inward energy totaly fits with the problems i personaly have.

Look at him , he is confused himself. Funny to take him seriously

Brad!!!!

Emma!!!! 

Waaaaaaaaaa! This video!

WhispersRedASMR I *know* RIGHT??! :D

Staci Osorio his Sun is Team Aqua 😊 just like me

That is the cool part about Eckhart, he had these insights naturally. But of course, DMT and mushrooms might help your cause of looking deeply.

I started this spiritual journey after awakening during my mushroom trip. The act of surrendering is universal, and can happen at any moment in your life, or it may not happen at all. My friends who were with me that day still think I’m tripping from the mushrooms after 3 months, but they’re just asleep 😴

Misery exploiting handily popularity, while seeing to it that own means keep growing, refus[ing] to be flocked into submission and humilty and let anyone outsmart or enjoy the means of authority.

Because he sees reality before it gets interpreted by the mind. The mind can only see reality through conceptualisation. Everybody knows this within and can "remember" it when the mind is still enough. It can never be understood intellectually.

when did he say its not theory and when did he say its not his interpretation?

+monkeycrud Because it's on internet, so it must be true

Umit Ekinoglu I'm surprised how many people've commented that. Never had the thought myself, but when pointed out I spose it's a fair comparison.

+caradepollasucia lol i was kinda thinking that too...i believe he would consider that a compliment :))

+caradepollasucia AGH THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT

Ed MacLean yep

does this have any relevance at all to what we are watching?

joydivisiongirl well, it doesn't it make any differece. We see things as we are -) I guess RL is beloved brand of my EGO-)

yamax1 I'm not quite sure if that's to do with your ego, since it's more about your appreciation of something that you are observing, and there is nothing wrong with wanting to look a certain way, it is only when we start to judge our self worth by what we own that the ego is a problem. I know that was crossed out, but still...

CosmicUndeadElf It's the separation identity. There is only God but the ego says there is "ME" and God and won't God be proud at how spiritual I am or good etc. God says you ARE me...you're just not ALL that I am. The trip is to become one with that which both contains and sustains us. It's a direction huh.

mercadam She and many others got the answer

He answered it pretty thoroughly?

You're sleeping
