Tip - don't pay the mind any mind...ignore any thoughts of past, future, or imagination/daydreaming. Instead, stay with the feeling/experiencing of the moment. Tactilely. Be 100% devoted to the moment...what is felt, seen, heard, smelt, and tasted. Just like how someone can be so in their head and in thought that they can bump into a lamp pole because they simply were not aware and did not see it...go to the other side of the spectrum. So with the here and now that there is no room for thought. In the absence of thought, there is only the present.
Thank you ☺️
Thank you 🙏🏻
Yeah I started noticing when I'm about to drift off into day dream mode and have to stop myself. Its hard sometime though.
And who is the i that started noticing
Yes yes yes
Self inquiry of the “who is “ I know is the answer
Getting off the rat wheel of life with being with people all day long I haven’t been able to this. He said it in the video so present amidst the world ahhhhhhh
Eckhart Tolle a day keeps the suffering away
Eck is so right. Today my cat struck a majestic pose in a tree in my back yard. Instead of appreciating the moment I ran inside to get my camera. Of course when I got back she was long gone from the tree
😂😂❤
In a chaotic world that's constantly moving, presence and stillness is so necessary.
You can say that again 🤟🏼
Presence is vital
More like essential
necessary vital and essential
😎
1:There is no movement without energie for creat this movement...
2:everything move always, the phenomenon of life is a perpetual movement...
3:presence, or, stillness is the characteristic of the the source of the creation... Something with what you will naturally indentifie through the moment you will realise it... ✌️🙂🙏
"Rise above thinking" This statement fixed my way of thinking about reaching the awareness. I was always looking to avoid thinking by sinking below it. As soon as he said that I immediately understood something. I probably don't make any sense and I cannot explain it but I found understanding in those words. Thank you for that.
You made sense to me. I fehlt the same way
One of the funniest videos I've seen of him. This just shows you humor is joy, a result of his presence. I love it. 😊
How nice to have a spiritual teacher as Eckhart Tolle who teaches you making you laugh! It is pure love of life! 🙏❤️
😁😁😁 humour is heaven sent . . .
@@AL_THOMAS_777 Absolutely ! 😁❤️🙏
Kinda like ram dass 🥲🙏🏼
@@jullz2583 yesss 😊
Yesss 🙏
What works for me is I find an anchor point to the present moment. For example today it's the touch of my back against the chair. The feeling of touch. I mean you're sitting in the chair and the chair is in the present moment right? Find your anchor points to the present moment and keep on coming back to them when you find your mind is drifting to the past or the future.
also feeling the inner energy body as it
is breathing

As an amateur carpenter, I’ve realized it is very, very important to stay in the present to avoid horrible or even merely measurable mistakes. Focus on the moment and the actions you are engaged in. Keep all your fingers.
so true!
Fingers doesn’t grow twice
I have been advancing on my journey and have made significant progress this summer. I have reached a state of deep inner peace and surrender. Yesterday I was at work and my mom called me to tell me my bathroom flooded and that my room was flooding too. I didn’t get mad, annoyed, sad, anything. I know this non-reaction was confirmation that I have grown.
And did you solve the problem later on?
@@faresar yes we fixed it
What did you do to get there? Lots of meditation?
@@gunnikr I just surrendered . It sounds simple but it really is. Took my years to finally get it though. You just have to live. Focus on what you’re doing in the moment and let go of everything else. “Let go and let God” approach.
@@gunnikrimply living in the moment and removing a reaction from yourself just like Ekhart says remove the mind and just simply be, not doing something just being in the present look around you what is the room like that you are in or the space is it chaotic or is it you that makes it seem chaotic? Remove judgments and just let the current present be just that
Without the awakening of consciousness, the brain and mind are incomplete, that is why we do not feel the peace and happiness that is beyond all understanding.
I feel like Eckhart could have had a career as a comedian? He's so naturally funny. A profound message, but with these bursts of humour.
I love Eckhart’s self deprecating, dry humour! He is better than any comedian I know but also so wise, soothing and peaceful - thank you 🙏 a perfect way to start a day.
.. or to end it :-D
Simon Amstell is very good, though
Completely agree. Sit down comedy club here we come hahaha
"Liberated from your mind" that is the transcendence of thought - That is so true
We are so fortunate to have Eckhart in our lifetime.
As someone who has developed really low self-esteem, Eckhart's teachings are the only thing that have been able to help me escape my mind and become grounded in the present. It's like your senses become heightened as you release all thoughts and negative projections from the outside world and focus on the awareness within. You experience the sounds, tastes, smells, and the richness of life and the magnificence of existence. To exist and not feel as though you have to be or achieve anything is truly a gift. You are already good enough without having to be good enough to the outside world. To be of the world but not in it to me is to take life for what it is and have gratitude for what you do have and to accept that which you do not have. Then you can find peace in the present, otherwise there will always be something to chase. It's like being a child again when you are off in your own world and you don't know loneliness because you don't know there are other children besides you and you are content and happy and no one has put the pressure of being anything on you yet. That you are good enough as you are just by breathing.
I love this!
👏👏👏❤️
Well said
❣️❣️❣️
Being in the present moment has changed my life… from morning to night, feeing what I have right now! Sight, smell, hearing, taste and touch… this worked for me and will work for you too. 😊
ekhart is so funny..hes a brilliant comedian , he doesn't get enough credit for that, i love him❤
I first read this as "Practical Tips to Stay Present and in 'SILLINESS'" and surprisingly, the chuckle it gave me brought me right back in to presence, teaching me not to take life so seriously :)
😊
I'll try that as a mantra for a few days, to embrace the omni-present silliness 😀
Good to see Muslim guy in spirituality
Otherwise most people don’t explore
@@amitusa My name is indeed Muslim, but I left the faith by choice many, many years ago. Thanks for your observation. Although it may be true, it might be best to withhold that opinion as to trigger other pain bodies ;)
@@britdude74 People have to learn how to deal with the realities of life, as the outside world will not walk on eggshells around them. It's very crippling that schools have done this to our kids.
So thankful we get to experience Eckhart in our lifetime! AND so thankful he's been recorded so that future people may experience his teachings!
So rare! Rare, because once enlightened that will be your last time being reincarnated to this world! (Why there aren't many masters) So thankful he lived during our lifetime!
Many thanks and many blessings dear Eckhart... ❤
-take attention to the Being or into the attention itself.
-limit your interaction with your devices and distractions, tv and so on.
-accept the isness of this moment
-refrain intoxicate beverage
-how to engaged problem 13:34
Thanks ❤️
@@TrueGuyT intoxicate beverage means alcohol.
Thank you 🙏
Granted, Eckhart has said he sometimes drinks wine. Likely more about not using it for escapism.
Gracias ❤️🙏🦋
Oh my goodness , I finally found my teach for life time . Thank you whatever who they are here I cannot see , thank you thank you .
Dont you please miss his wonderful "A New Earth" !!
@@AL_THOMAS_777 no, not yet , I am currently reading the power of now very slowly, need to look up a lot of dictionary . But after this one I will read new earth .
In my confusion,
I quite appreciate this man's wisdom.
In my weakness,
I am enured of this man's
power.
In my blindness
I find vision in his presence.
Bereft of comfort
his stories open my heart.
With Love, Wisdom, Power, and Vision.
I am well.
❤
Love to everybody here as we sit in the present moment, connecting together 💗
🙏🙏🙏 be blessed Violet. . . .
🙏 Love and Light 💚
🕉 Stillness and Peace 🧘♂️
Presence ignites its energy when every breath is a grace of gratitude
I can remember learning how to meditate as a teen and being frustrated with noises that interrupted my meditation; staring at a candle or saying a mantra. Now, noises are actually welcome and represent the present and reality and they keep me present along with sensing my body. It's so much easier to achieve getting out of your head; slowing down your mind.
Awesome ❤🎉
I always thought I didn't capture enough photos so as to remember the memory when I'm old and my memory failing. I guess sticking the moment is better because seeking to capture it only let's it slip away. ❤
Practice presence by touching,smelling, breathing,seeing, tasting, hearing and feeling without actively thinking.
“Facing reality is the ultimate act of courage and compassion.” (From Stoic Mosquito by A. A. Socrates)
I am the ultimate alchemist. I know that my thoughts create my reality. I use my mind for my highest good. I use my mind to discern who should be allowed in my reality.
Yes,create you're own reality 👍
Any idea how to do this when suffering from an illness that causes swallowing and breathing issues ? My thoughts are full of fear and just worry , also worrying it won’t resolve or heal. Any suggestions would be appreciated 🙏🏼
@@JourneyTrailhead sapien medicine here on youtube might have a video that may help you
@@michaelthompson6080 thank you. I will look it up.
@@JourneyTrailhead Sacred Scribes Joanne Walmsley on the internet has lots of information on angels
At the health club, I often sit in the sauna for 30 minutes. Every single person in there is pecking away on his smartphone. They simply cannot even relax in the sauna. People have to be on their phones doing who knows what! I love sitting in the sauna just relaxing! Not many do!
Papinoo they are probobily thinking of there phones whilst having a massage or swimming
😂
I'd prefer watching people instead of my phone too.
Pay them no mind - it doesn’t matter
I'm with you, love just being in the sauna. The addiction to distraction is sad.
🌸Thank you very much 🌸
You are wonderful 🌸🙏😘
Yes my dear, he is a human WONDER . . .
For me doing presence meditation first thing in the morning get's me in the state for the whole day.
Yes..yes, thank you for your humor Eckhart and I start the day with no devices, just me and God and I get so present as to lose my earthly form so to speak....I'm not a name, job or body, I'm energy, I'm Spirit and if I can capture that sweet spot of the present moment (as Joe Dispenza says) then I go into the quantum field and begin to consciously understand and create my life as a Spirit having a human experience.
Is it Joe’s meditations that you do?
@@labab1048 The only thing I do directly from Joe is supernatural breathing upon rising then simple presence meditation and i use a lot of my own processes and techniques..but I love Dr. JDs teaching and for me he explains this stuff better than anybody. It’s how I healed lifelong disease really well before I even know who he was. It’s all the mind you know. His meditations are great 👍
I adore this man he is a beautiful soul
I have to say It !
I❤️you Eckhart !!
Thank you 🙏 🥰
❤️❤️🥰
I was listening using half of my brain and scolding someone in my head using the other half when Ekhart said and DONT COMPLAIN :) Absolutely wonderful Ekhart. What we would have done without you !
LOVE YOUR humor.
I like to be a turist in my next life !!😊🤣I LOVE your Humor Mr Tolle. Yes that is the Most IMPORTANT that we can do, go deeper and deeper inside to meet ourself !! 🍃🧘♀️💕🧘♂️🍃
THIS travelling doesnt bother CO2 . . .
@@AL_THOMAS_777 All part of the illusion I'm afraid…
Wow. Just found this guy and never have I seen someone so wise merge it with such wittiness. There’s other people teaching a similar message and they’re fantastic, but their seriousness often makes them look like they’re perhaps not as happy and present as they claim to be. That ending sentence was brilliant, exquisite timing. This man is wonderful
Dis guy is my dad….everytime he speaks…no matter what turmoil happens in my life a 12 minute talk to put things into perspective
So true, my daily dose of Eck keeps me on track in the midst chaos
Im here for 2024!!! ❤❤ i will definitely do these!!
Humour and wisdom, pure heaven
Absolutely . . . .
Wonderful to see you’re not drinking from a whiskey bottle & in your pajamas 🌻🤗
If that day ever happens I’ll know it just got very serious, lol, Thanks for keeping us all together Eckhart 🤗🌻We appreciate you!!!
the first time i actually laughed with the crowd 😊 really good work!
"Surrender to the fact that you are wet. that is what is " 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This will help me in my daily experiences with situations around me. Thanks a lot to my Great Master. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
🙏💯
Yes,getting angry won't dry your clothes..
Gracias 🙏🏼 💜 🙇🏼♀️ 🌈
When you check your tinder! Was not expecting that one! 😂
Thank you🥰✌🏽💐
5:37 complete acceptance of this moment you’ll become still
So good Thankyou Eckhart.
There has to be a deeper reason for experiencing an awakening than simply for one's own benefit. Unless we seek to awaken so we can be of service to others - to the world and humanity as a whole - it will never happen.
Understanding the simplicity of this is life changing. I'm currently experiencing extremely challenging times. I feel it as it's what's happening now but I also let it go when the feelings ease. At points I'm totally present and there is no anxiety and at the times when it's overwhelming I remind myself that I'm trying to not think of the future or the past only what I'm doing now however hard now can be, im challenging myself to think differently and to accept what's happening however painful. When it doesn't feel simple I remind myself that im enough and I have it in me to just be with what is. Thank you for this video it's definitely something I come back to when I feel overwhelmed again.
It’s all about detachment. Be willing to drop your desires and let the universe pick them up and return them to you🙌🏽💚
~Much Love from a Law of Attraction CZcamsr💜

This is not about universe returning desires. Ugh. Just please listen instead of preaching. People keep putting senseless words into this trying to make it sound flowery. When you didn’t spend a single moment actually being present. If you are not interested in this topic, why are you watching this video? Let others get something out of it.
This is not about law of attraction.
These videos are supposed to help you get out of mind and thought identification. You might be a master manifester and everything but if you don’t truly know what awakening is or how extremely life changing it is, why would you keep pushing things you know about into this space?
It takes effort to get out of this thought identifying addiction. This is what awakening is. The whole world going on indulging in the addiction and helping each other. For once people are able to guide some. Ekhart tolle being one of them. People who scroll through these comments will see you comment and maybe they were going to be affected positively by the video but you started talking about manifesting your desires. And they went right back into the matrix. It is not so mind based. Nothing you think brings you here. I am sorry i ranted but i just cant with people. They dont want to accept that they are totally lost and then misguide other people who are honest enough and courageous enough to go through this process by accepting that they are lost. You clearly cant do that.
@@joeyondakeys yea i guess i overreacted…. At that moment I was a bit frustrated by seeing the people around me. The we all act sometimes… it’s just disheartening. Humans are so weird. Sorry to the person who I replied to.
Never been this early. I love your teachings Eckhart, it really helps me be a better parent.
Beautiful soul❤
i met a guy at a bar who argued that humans incessantly taking pictures and recording is a good thing. We are documenting history. He went on to say that this especially includes what we currently see as "boring" or "useless" pics like food, etc. In the past, we had to dig up bones, dust off rocks to make sense of human life. In the future, they will have endless amounts of artifacts.
So grateful about this wise words and presence. Combined with laughing. Great. ❤🎉
Forever grateful to this soul..
It is a big relief from my racing mind it makes me so much more present with the person in front of me and I can listen to what that have to say it gives me space from the pain I feel on a daily basis.helps me to meditate and stay carm .
Love Master Tolle.
I find wrapping one's self in sparkly paper with a big ribbon on it helps to stay....................... PRESENT. lol
That's a deep thought
But you cannot unwrap presence and have it too
The not complaining piece at the end was interesting. Not getting heated but explaining the situation. I like this. Too often I get really angry when service is below-standard. There is a better way.
I also liked what he said about accepting when there are noisy people around. I am living in a bnb where there are noises that are disturbing, and it's tough to accept. If I can accept, I can imagine I will be more at peace.
But I have to complain first lol peacefully. Then I can accept I've done all I can do.
What you react to strongly in another, is also in you
When you are still, you are present and you live through the deep I.
Accept the is-ness of this moment. This is a quick way beyond the ego. This means don't complain internally or externally.
Thanks Eckhart. 💯🌻🐳🐧💖🍻🍰🚴♂️🏍🥕✔☯️🤠
Thank you for helping us save ourselves - from ourselves ☺️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Haha 😀...thankyou Eckhart 🙏🏻 Fun pointings...smiles to you, and much love as always, dear one ❤️
You are delightful Eckhart 🙏💜🙏
When i see homo touristicas in Vancouver I always try to smile even when I'm sad. It makes me feel better to give someone else a smile than to own one myself.
Thanks for all the good you do.
Lovely man to listen to. I laughed so the tears flowed.
🙏🙏🙏
We love you Echart! Thank you!
I needed this.. thank you
Always with humour 😊👏💚
ily have a good day 🥰
This is an abundance of wisdom. A kindred book I read changed my entire focus. "Mindful Mastery: Living Intentionally in a Chaotic World" by Kyle Ash
Eckhart i love you 🥰😍💘 so much!
I swear Eckhart should be a stand up comic on the side 🤣 I lost it when he spoke about the tourist reincarnations 😆
best standup comediant
And that about chalk him up well, well…
Oh my God! 😂
An excellent teaching, because in addition to the lesson, Eckhart had me howling tears of laughter.
I've been gobbling up comedy since childhood and am proud of my half assed clown routines.
Eckhart is pure genius
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🔥
thinking above the mind not below as in intoxication .....nice !
Thanks be given to Grace for this Presence
The problem is: You’re always so funny and interesting and you make me watch nature and forget about my problems completely. So I have to forbid myself watching you before I have completed my daily tasks.
My house mates wake me up most mornings, they put the tv on and talk loudly over the top of the tv. This used to make me so angry, of cause I said something but they just keep doing it. Now I say to myself, its just sound and except it, I dont get angry and feel knots in my stomache anymore, its just sound. I turn the tv on in my bedroom and play Eckhart Tolle videos, up quiet loud I must say, and remain calm.
When he said "Tinder" that was hilarious. This man is a comedy genius.
13:08 I've been thinking about the stages of human development and the phases of becoming more aware lately. Physical, emotional, mental, spiritual. Observing my mental processes during meditation is enlightening. ✌️❤️💐
this guy is good !
You make me smile and laugh in such a natural way, thanks Eckhart.
Thank you Eckhart.😂❤
My form identity is mexican and 2nd generation jehovas witness. Thanks to Tolle I am the light now. Nothing people believe can change that.
Acceptance of the "isness" I need to remember that and learn more about it so I can apply and embrace it more often. Thank you
Thank you
Thankful and grateful for Eckhart sir
Your teachings are as pure as you are.
Lots of blessings
Great person His philosophy of isness is wonderful If follows life become beautiful and easy at home and everywhere Be blessed you make us happier
Thank You Mr. Tolle,
you are a sane breath of fresh air...
that even in my unbalanced/egoic state of mind+pain body, your message is so clear and true,
that it somehow gets through.
🙏🏼🌱🐾👣🌿🕊️
Thanks ✌
Accepting ISNESS of NOW becomes a natural result of seeking 'What is True?'. It is a result of honesty that cuts through maze and takes one to Stillness. It is lived as a natural state when there is willingness to totally surrender and meet truth.
Thank you Eckhart! ❤
Eckart has a very cheeky sense of humour
Accepting the issnes of the present moment, its a quick way to going beyond the egoic self
How wonderful Eckhart. Thank you for this beautiful session. I found your vibes so sensitive and soft and warm. Looking forward to the next one. Waving to you with love, Marie-Louise from Cornwall, UK ❤
Presence isn't a state. You are always present. You're never not present.
You are not present, when you are unaware of being present.
@@Protector0ne Yes, you are. You are never not present. Also, "unaware of being present" doesn't mean anything. You are always awareness, whether your mind is active or not. Do you think you are not present in deep sleep? What are you going to do about that, if that's the case? Take drugs so that you don't fall asleep? After all, you wouldn't want to be "unaware of being present", would you?
