    I lost my brother unexpectedly years ago. He was young and it was a shock. It was so painful at the time, and I never knew how to process his death or the pain, so it just stayed in me and built up over years. And any strong reminder, like hearing a song he used to listen to, would cause me deep pain that would resonate, pain was always just under the surface.
    Since finding Eckhart's teachings and applying them, I've been able to face and even sit with that pain and accept it. Accept his death. And transmute that pain. Now I am not afraid to think of him, hear a song, remember him. Memories of him now make me feel happiness instead of anguish.
    This is just one of many ways my life has changed, and is now in a constant shift as I continue my practice. I'm so thankful for these teachings.

    When you were raised in a home where anger was how you dealt with anything stressful, for example you'd get really mad at someone when they got hurt in an accident, but you were the only one awake and aware it really messes you up. I've been trying to deal with it for years. The more I allow it and feel it the more it seats itself. Those who haven't experienced deep trauma, addiction, abuse, abandonment, narcissism, emotional disorders, anger, betrayal, unrequited love, and were aware through it all have no idea. I don't mean I was awake and aware as I am now I mean I wasn't fast asleep like the rest of my family and friends. As a young teenager I was trying to get the family into counseling. I really bit off a huge pile of spiritual lessons to chew on. I've known this for many years and have always thought I was really crazy for doing it. I also think I'm a new soul that wanted to go through this time on earth so I had to experience what most go through in several lives in just one! I'm lucky to be as sane as I am. My doctor actually called me a miracle so I must be doing something right.

      Dear Friend, another possibilty is that You are an 'Old-Soul' and You're here to end these ignorant silly ways of Your Kin; not by having to heal or change them but by healing and being Your True Self and showing Them the way.
      How consciously They realize it, is not as important as how high You can raise Your consciousness, and radiate Your love & Light.
      I imagine You've had to figure this out already, to a large degree, but this Eckhart talk, "Eckhart Tolle's guide on how to avoid People pleasing" might help reassure, and help Us co-exist with difficult Kin with love
      All the best!

      @@Drew_Hurst thank you but I haven't had anything to do with any of my family in many years and I am no longer suffering because of any of it. Eckheart's video on the park bench was what prompted me to leave them all behind and get clean and sober in 2005. My clean date from crack cocaine is xmas day 2004. I listened to many of Eckhart's videos over the years and I've done a ton of work, I'm doing very well.
      I believed myself to be an old soul for many years prior to getting clean. I was into all kinds of spiritual stuff when I was in active addiction. The reason I changed my mind in recent years to being a new soul is because of how incredibly insane my life was even compared to other addicts. I had tons of friends who were addicts back then, it was rampant, but not the kind you see in downtown Los Angeles or Vancouver these days that is on a whole new level now. I also decided I'm a new soul rather than an old one because I don't remember any past lives. I have also considered that the reason for this is that God is sparing me additional unneeded suffering because of how much trauma I experienced in just this one lifetime and it's more than enough to heal from.
      Namaste ❤️❤️❤️

    Part of the issue is society's addiction to trauma and suffering. My adult daughter was found deceased after OD'ing. I was not afraid to face the pain and let the emotions run through me. I am at peace with her passing and do not have the sad reactions looking at pictures, etc. I have often offered my contact information to others experiencing the same and usually hear "no, I don't want to talk about it." Harboring those emotions lines people up for a host of mental and physical health problems as well as a miserable life.

I know it's dysfunctional, but somehow I feel that if I stop thinking, for example, I should have done more, I should have done tests earlier, or about our daily walks and drives to the bushlands, him sitting in his basket in the passenger seat, I kind of want to hang on to those thoughts, even if it means I cry every day. Somehow I feel if I stop that, I'll let him down. Silly, really, but I don't want to let go. Anyhow, I hope you cope better than I. Love to you!

    A friend's sister lost her husband about 10 years ago and I still see her sad. I somehow feel that she is feeling guilty if she is happy. She could still be in sorrow, only she knows, but I think she wants others to know how much she loved him and how much she misses him. I recommended your book "The Power of Now" to her, but I don't think she ever came close to it. The emotions and the associated delusions can be so strong and can live on for years. Its amazing how Grace works. It knows when to bring in awareness and take people out of suffering.

    There is an important connection that must be made. The emotional body and the physical body store trauma, emotions and there is also redeeming value to making sense of our 'story'. That story is who you are! Perhaps from a transpersonal level it makes no difference but that story is how you came to be. And perhaps part of that is learning that your past doesn't define you entirely either. Emotional purging is a real thing and isn't necessarily completely fabricated by thought. There is a value to proper grief processes too.

    One reason this filosofer said that, "I knew he was not immortal", could have been because he had thought of it beforehand. And I don't mean in any gloomy way, more like a deep fear he had managed to overcome and find peace with. I did that with my baby.. I was so afraid something would happen to him that I couldn't live a normal life. So it was necessary to find a peace in reality. He is not immortal, no matter what I do.

Life can be traumatic and that's it.. it's living with it all and still being able to get up and keep going that truly means how strong you are.. I've never listened to him.. but from what she said I never would..

    I identify with much of what you say. For example, I continue to experience a great deal of anxiety and depression over losses including the death of my little girl more than 7 years ago now, and more recently the loss of my home and 95% of everything I owned which I will never be able to recoup. I still have enormous financial pressures on me, and I can foresee myself in the not too distant future stuck in a state run home for the aged and disabled. I have read the stories of many people who ended up in this situation, and the lack of medical facilities and good care is VERY REAL, and the suffering people endure in a country as rich as the U.S. is astounding. All of this ruins my sleep almost every night, but I cannot seem to "let it go" as you describe. In fact I have wondered if this "observing" is what medical practitioners deem a pathological condition described as "dissociation." I wish it could all be simple and easy, but I do not find it to be so.

    I wept for months when my beloved husband died in a sudden accident. The tears cleansed me. Prolonged grief may be necessary for some people. Grief should not be thought of as “dysfunctional.” This is the first time I have disagreed with Eckhart. There need be no”expiration date” for grief. Sadly, we deny our emotions far more than we express them. Anxiety, fear, excessive anger and stress are the only emotions that must be tamed by meditation. I love to cry. Our tear ducts need to be accessed and stimulated. It’s good to cry. Go ahead; let ‘em flow! PS I am a very cheerful, happy person, an “upper” by nature. But I know the usefulness of having a good cry; even if just to cleanse your body, mind and soul, and sometimes “for no reason.” Why do I get the feeling that this is coming from a male perspective? Sorry. I love you, Eckhart, but tears will never drown you. Just let them have their way.

    • @ay8987
      @ay8987 Před rokem +4

      I believe you misunderstood the message. The point is to recognize emotions for what they are, not to deny them. You can cry and be present and release. Crying is release of energy which is very good. Anger on the other hand is to feel pain, and staying angry is to prolong pain. It’s all about recognising the awareness of all states.

Things I once loved to do make me sad..I miss him. .. Grief is a cruel state of loneliness, although I have friends, children, relatives... And one cannot compare the loss of parents to the loss of a much beloved husband. I was destroyed and it is not helpful if people suppose I WANT to mourn. I do everything to get on with life, not becoming bitter and isolated, but positive, happy and loving. BUT it needs so much energy to cope with my deep yearning. And I cannot force myself to pretend all these sadness does not exist. It is not as easy, Eckart, as you are telling us.

    After my soul mate mother left I found myself in waves of the most intense grief imaginable for about 10 years. I was absolutely conscious and in acceptance of every moment of every part of the experience and it just took that amount of time. It then slowly subsided and merged with my overall experience of life, death and the nature of reality which is bright and full of love and peace. Despite knowing what death is, feeling her, dreaming of her every single night to the point of being with her as much as when she was with her body....I still mourned for that long and the intensity absolutely chocked me. Just shows that there is no way to say how it will happen, how long it will take or should take even if one is highly aware. In a way 10 years might be like 10 seconds...time is relative and there was nothing I could have done, or been for it to move throught me any faster, in fact if I had contracted at all I think it could have stayed with me to my own death.

    It’s not awareness that Hass to move to the body; it’s attention. Awareness is much bigger than attention. Awareness takes in everything. There’s always so much more going on than I thought but most of our attention is on thoughts, that doesn’t mean we aren’t aware in the background. when attention gets shifted to the background, eventually, the background becomes more of the foreground, unless there’s a very big conditioning event, such as the death of a close relative or friend.
