When you give your breath your full attention, teaches Eckhart Tolle, you step out of thinking and into the present moment. In this video, Eckhart shares the practice of “One Conscious Breath,” discussing how we can turn the largely unconscious process of respiration into an always available portal to fully embodied Presence. Eckhart also discusses: ▪️The ancient tradition of breath awareness practice ▪️ The meditator’s pitfall: compartmentalizing awareness in your practice session and remaining unconscious the rest of the time ▪️ The goal of all spiritual techniques: the realization of Being
Who are you when you do not refer to your thinking mind for the answer? Most people derive their sense of self from a conceptual framework composed of things like your personal history, your gender, your occupation, and so on. Eckhart Tolle‘s primary teaching is to help us discover who we are beyond anything we can conceive of mentally: consciousness itself. In this video, Eckhart discusses:
Every moment of our lives, we are surrounded by the miracles of the universe. Yet if you are trapped in unconscious thinking, you’re likely to overlook the beauty and “”aliveness”” of nature in its myriad forms, animate and inanimate. In this video with bestselling author Eckhart Tolle, you’re invited to practice giving attention to your surroundings without the interference of conceptual thinking, analysis, judgment, and so on.
Eckhart Tolle tells us that the universe is continually evolving, along with all of the life forms within it, in response to a profound impulse toward a greater expression of consciousness. In this video, Eckhart explores how you can sense this impulse within yourself, align with its vast power, and become a “bringer of the light of consciousness” into this world.
Success comes more naturally when you stop chasing it. Through the story of a Zen archer and real-life examples, Eckhart Tolle reveals why letting go of outcomes actually improves your results. His fresh perspective on daily activities, from walking to working, brings new meaning to everything you do.
Why do we experience suffering? Eckhart Tolle reveals that much of our pain arises from the “misuse of the mind.” In this video, he explains how thought identification traps us in patterns of unhappiness and stress—and offers profound insights to help us break free.
Relationships based in the ego, or what Eckhart Tolle calls “the identification with the mind-made sense of self,” are contaminated by unconscious judgments, feelings of superiority (or the opposite), and any number of unpleasant characteristics. In this video, Eckhart reveals a much more positive and fulfilling way of relating to the people in your life: connecting from the depths of Presence, free from judgments, labels, opinions, and a strictly transactional perspective.
Worldly power (or egoic power) is usually wielded as power over someone or something. In this video with Eckhart Tolle, he reveals another kind of power: the silent yet immense power of Presence. This kind of power is not something you can grasp intellectually; rather, you can sense into it as a type of deep trust in the one life of which we are all an inseparable part. Give a watch as Eckhart discusses: ▪️ The Buddha’s teachings on emptiness ▪️Sensing your connection with Source ▪️True creativity, and more
Many of us are destined to become spiritual teachers, formally or informally, because our world desperately needs more of them. Eckhart Tolle illustrates how you might play this role yourself, sharing cautionary advice about the dangers of the ego getting in the way. Join Eckhart in this video as he discusses the process of realizing the “Deep I,” relinquishing your ego-based sense of self, bringing awareness to the source of suffering in the mind, and more.
Eckhart Tolle often teaches about how your sense perceptions provide you with an immediate opening into the depths of the present moment. However, for most of us, we first need to become more keenly aware of whatever it is that we’re actually seeing, hearing, tasting, and so on.
Eckhart Tolle has an intriguing question for you: who (or what) are you without reference to your personal history? In this video, Eckhart discusses what he calls “the greatest mystery of the universe”—the mystery of consciousness, and how through direct experience we can discover a startling spiritual truth: the universe itself is consciousness, and so are you.
Imagine that you wrote a doctoral dissertation about honey… but never tasted it for yourself. This is the analogy Eckhart Tolle shares in this video to illustrate the difference between knowing things conceptually and knowing things through direct, sensory experience in the present moment. Watch now as he discusses: ▪️Choosing to let go of the narrative in the mind about who you are in order to open to the realization of your essential nature as consciousness itself ▪️How the absence of awareness leads to conflict on the individual and collective level ▪️ Freeing yourself from “mental positions,” aka opinions
In order for our world to free itself from pointless conflict on a collective level, teaches Eckhart Tolle, we must begin by uprooting the causes of pointless conflict on a personal level. In this video, Eckhart discusses: • How life mirrors our predominant state of consciousness back to us • The obstacle of the ego and its quest for superiority at any cost • Finding freedom from the “burden” of the personality • How the process of spiritual awakening commonly unfolds for people
When we injure ourselves physically, pain is a natural part of the experience. Suffering, on the other hand, is optional. As Eckhart Tolle explains in this teaching, suffering is something we add to our challenges through unconscious judgment, resistance, and other unhelpful attitudes. But there’s good news: you have the power to turn your suffering into a path to spiritual awakening.
When we use the term “spiritual awakening,” what do we actually mean? What are we awakening from? And what are we awakening to? In this video, join bestselling author and renowned teacher Eckhart Tolle for a discussion of spiritual awakening as the process of “breaking free from identification with form.” In other words, stepping out of compulsive thinking and the mental narrative of “the little me.”
In this teaching, Eckhart points you toward the realization of “the inner space of consciousness,” the formless dimension within you that is equally as limitless as the universe itself. Looking at a starry sky often instills a sense of wonder. Yet more awe-inspiring than the infinite number of stars, explains Eckhart Tolle, is the vastness of space holding each and every one of them. And you are an inseparable part of that timeless expanse.
“When a sufficient number of humans have gone through this incredible shift in consciousness, the world that they create will look very different from the world that is created by humans who are completely identified with thinking.” So says Eckhart Tolle in this inspiring video sharing his vision of the next stage in human evolution.
Beneath the noisy surface phenomena of our lives, teaches Eckhart Tolle, lies an unshakable stillness that is always accessible in the present moment. This stillness is the essence of who you are. And when you touch this stillness within, he explains, you open the doorway to a life without the burden of mind-made suffering.
How do you usually respond to the challenges in your life? When we find ourselves in the middle of a difficult situation, the last thing we want to hear is that we should be grateful for the growth opportunity. Yet as Eckhart Tolle explains in this video, at a higher level, even our greatest trials have the potential to spark the awakening of consciousness and illuminate the pathway out of suffering.
It may sound paradoxical, yet it is entirely possible for you to know something without having to think about it. In this video with bestselling author Eckhart Tolle, discover what he calls “nonconceptual intelligence,” or the view of “pure awareness” unfiltered by the stream of thoughts in our minds.
If you want to help change the world, teaches Eckhart Tolle, you cannot overlook the importance of self-awareness. “Whenever awareness disappears,” explains Eckhart, “whatever the mind does sooner or later becomes a form of insanity.”
Deepak Chopra unpacks the nature of reality: from consciousness, to making meaning, to what happens after death. He shares a blueprint for awakening through transcending the 5 Kleshas, overcoming limiting beliefs, and expanding your perception. Deepak also dives deep into the reality infinite multiverses, the divine lila, and how to create joy in your life. Drawing from his research on AI, he weighs the possible dangers & benefits to our ever-expanding technology.
The “difficult times” that every generation will experience are precisely when the arising of wisdom is most likely to happen. For anyone in the middle of a challenging situation—or looking to be better prepared for the next inevitable hurdle on your path, listen to Eckhart explain: ▪️Why we don’t usually grow when we’re in our comfort zones ▪️Why the state of consciousness with which you meet a challenge is what’s most important ▪️How to create serenity and space amid situations and conditions the ego says are “bad” ▪️Interpersonal drama—how it starts, and how to prevent it
Across the world’s spiritual traditions, our ordinary, everyday state of mind has been equated to being physically asleep—thus we call the shift in consciousness from a thought-based sense of identity to the discovery of a much deeper essence the process of spiritual “awakening.” In this video, Eckhart Tolle describes how this shift opens us to an entirely novel experience of the world around us.
You’ve no doubt heard the expression, “Do what you enjoy, and you’ll never work a day in your life.” The problem, according to Eckhart Tolle, isn’t with our work—it’s the challenge of being Present when you’re deeply immersed in “doing” mode.
When something potentially “negative” happens in our lives, there is a critically important distinction you must make in order to avoid creating “drama” and unnecessary suffering. Eckhart helps us separate the objective reality of a situation or circumstance from the way we choose to respond to it.
There are certain things about the experience of being human that hold true no matter our time or place in history. Philosophers, artists, religious leaders, and other luminaries have all pointed to this “perennial” wisdom, explains Eckhart Tolle, yet unfortunately most people only relate to these teachings through the filter of conceptual thought—or what in Zen traditions is called mistaking the finger for the moon that it’s pointing to.
How can we stop the increasing patterns of havoc and suffering in our world? In this video, Eckhart reviews the idea of “conscious manifestation.”
Life becomes dreary when our challenges seem to have absolutely no point or purpose. Eckhart Tolle discusses how from both a biological and a spiritual perspective, there is no growth and evolution without moving through challenges.
