Is the Process of Awakening a Consequence of Suffering? | Q&A Eckhart Tolle

'I'm not irritated by this situation, I'm irritated by what my mind is commenting on this situation'... Gold. Thank you, Eckhart

It brings me immense joy to know that Eckhart has been informed of his cuteness. His reaction just cements in that fact even more! Winnie the Spiritual Pooh as usual. :)

I want Eckhart to come to India, he is the reason I am still alive. I am absolutely devoted towards him ❤️❤️❤️

I was an only child in an abusive household and I became very skilled at disassociation and even romanticized it as a way of coping. Now instead I feel everything as much as I need to and surrender and I feel so free. I only want to help others to feel it as well. I am so lucky right now and I love you all so much. Conciousness was always right here but before you can touch it, it feels so far away. I will always remember what Eckhart said a spiritual teacher said his secret was. "I don't care what happens." Doesn't mean apathy, to me it means making the best of things good and making the least out of the bad things.

'95% of the unhappiness is caused by mind' - eckhart tolle. This hits me on a different level

Eckhart has changed my life. I will be eternally grateful

If you’re not in the best place right now: remember that every up comes from a down, every light stems from darkness, and every rainbow started as rain. 😌💚

I needed the suffering, without it I wouldn’t have surrendered to what is.

For myself, the awakening began after great suffering, I felt I didn't chose the path, it just began when the time was right. Thank you Eckhart, you've helped in so many ways over the years. Stay strong everyone, we got this!

Reminds me of the beggining of the Serenity prayer: God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, The courage to change the things I can, And the wisdom to know the difference

Pain will always be your best teacher in life, since the soul never forgets the most painful experiences..

Acceptance is the end of suffering:) The space between what is and what is wanted is what causes the suffering.

Eckhart is a Rockstar and he humbley knows it :) He’s helped me so much these last few years 🙏🏾

I lived in China for a couple of years. There is so much unconsciousness. I don’t think the government would tolerate his ideals (perhaps for a time) because they are about expansion and openness and it may draw in more “progressive” thinking which is against their agenda (as a strong collective ego that will definitely feel threatend) but the people would tremendously benefit. I remember feeling like I was a force of consciousness, there to absorb all the unconsciousness through the unconscious behaviors of those around me, almost like a filter or mediator and I made this my practice. I always wanted people to watch and know about this way of living, but honestly there were so many gems in China that I think they are on their way. Slowly. But surely. :)

The suffering is necessary in the early stages to give you the motivation for change 🙏🏽
