      It doesn't really matter how long it takes to be awaken. Somewhere else Eckhart said that mankind has been slept/mind-conditioned for thousands of years, and that it's awesome that some individuals are aware of that and start an awakening journey. I'd say the really important part is the awakening process itself. It is not a goal, but a journey.

    I'd like to let anyone coming across this know, that you are already okay, you just need to get your consciousness back from the situation it is caught up in and experience in the present moment. Don't create a narrative that's not there. Teach your mind to speak kind words to you, regardless of what's around you, remember that it's only you who can talk to yourself Nicely.

And yes use the steps here. Call to the universe for loving connection, fill your thoughts with loving connection, start with what's around you, even loving connection to your cup, plate, the spider in the corner (even as you lift it gently outside). I'm attempting this with joy. As for some reason I've lost my joy due to fearful thoughts....so taking self responsibility to see joy, acknowledge joy, smile more, deliberately...I'm looking forward to laughing so much I can't stop...giddy with joy.

    People misinterpret what eckhart tolle says here, he still leaves a space open for circumstances playing a part in one's mental state.

    but becuz he knows this about the mind, he repeats the suggestion to take a breath, feel ur inner energy field, feel the aliveness , the tingling in ur hands, & so on, & i figure, "well, he's been right before" & i try it again & yes, each time it is getting a little easier, with practice, to feel the inner body & pay attention, listening with my whole body instead of going round after round on that same old squeaky rat wheel in my head.

      @@lenakrupinski6303 I love your way of thinking and sometimes it is hard isn't it, especially when someone does or says something which hits a nerve. The challenges of everyday life at the moment has made us all either numb it out or consume some more through alcohol, drugs, spending, for example. Sitting with these uncomfortable emotions rather than reacting on impulse and allowing it always helps to release and transform in to something new, no matter how hard it is. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Happy Christmas 💖💖

    I believe that life is like that, with risks, dangers, challenges and also with pleasant moments, with triumphs and also with misfortunes. Through infinite time, the beings of our planet have developed the ability to think, but now our species needs to evolve to continue existing, this is how life seems to be, life without beginning or end, the greatest of mysteries. But the important thing is that each one of the living beings manages to spend the time that we inhabit the earth, with peace, tranquility, well-being and joy, through evolving to the next step, which is enlightenment. As soon as enlightenment arrives, we can start by stopping the negative thoughts that the mind produces by being in the Now.

    As long as we are alive and breathing there will be pain and suffering of some kind or another that we have to deal with. Some of it of our own doing and some by other people and events which we have no control over. Your own perception of events , people , places and labeling of them is paramount here. If you analyze, interpret, and label things wrong then your reaction or solution to them will be wrong. First you must diagnose right then your prognosis will be right. Have a nice life.

    THE IMMEDIATE CAUSE OF ANGER IS DESIRE (Wants, expectations, attachment)
    Anger arises because things don't happen as we want (desire) or we expect. The narrative is only a translation of our dislike towards the situation and of course reinforces the anger, or any other emotion manifesred in us, such as, irritation, or disappointment, frustration or whatever.
