Eckhart Tolle/video

[michaelsees]

This film is personal with me as I was there at the Inner Directions Gathering and it was the last one they had.
Among the speakers that I remember were Tolle of course, Gangaji, Thomas Harding, Metta Zetty and I am sure quite a few more.
Enjoy

Filmed at Inner Directions Gathering, LaJolla CA, March 2003

An essential part of the process of awakening is letting go of the need to know and understand more. If we can learn to renounce thought and thought forms… because it is not through thought that we awaken… we can step out of the stream of conscious thought into a spacious awareness.

As you step out of the need to think, you experience an inner peace. A great liberation is felt and then the miracle happens… of being present here as a ‘field of awareness’ rather than as a person invested with the sense of ‘self’.

When you allow the unconditioned consciousness to flower through this form, when you allow this moment which is so precious to be… when you enter the ‘Now’ with all your attention… when you renounce the past and the future, even the very next moment… a completely different quality of ‘being’ arises. You then realize how vast the space is inside you… how deep the stillness, the inner peace within you.

When you are rooted in the ‘Now’, you are rooted in ‘being’… and that is the ultimate liberation.

- The movement of needing to add 'more' to yourself.

- The fate of being a spiritual seeker - the 'seeking' movement.

- Awakening out of the stream of thinking.

- The renunciation of thought is the renunciation of past-future.

- Renounce the need for the next moment.

- The antagonistic attitude towards life - the illusion of 'me' gets strengthened through fighting what is.

- Why should I allow something to be . . . ?

- In your life whatever happens could not be otherwise.

- What happens if you let go of the 'no' to this moment . . . ?

- How vast the space is, inside you.

- Discover the space around things.

- Relinquish the need for the world to change.

Cool, you were there? You can find this on audio, "Through the Open Door". I used to listen to this all the time.

Yup I have it pm me your email and I will send it to you.
Here is the description of what I have I think it's what you want:

"Once you've experienced the power of the present moment, what's next? Eckhart Tolle, who ignited a spiritual awakening in the West with his best-selling The Power of Now, invites listeners to join him on a path that takes us even further into the profound experience of pure presence. Through the Open Door is Eckhart's highly anticipated return to audio, featuring new teachings on:

Achieving "Space Consciousness", learning to focus on the underlying field from which all forms and thoughts arise
Refining your alertness to become alive and present with every cell of your body
The illusions that lead to suffering, spiritual longing, and the need for more time in our lives, and how to dispel them
How to discover "true liberation" beyond the limits of the thinking mind and the "little self", and more.


Eckhart's listeners often report that they play his recordings time and again in order to experience his unique ability to transport them to a state of awakened consciousness. Now, the legions of fans who turn to this modern spiritual beacon for guidance are invited to follow him Through the Open Door into "a new world of vast aliveness"."


Yeah I was there. It was a great time having so many wonderful teachers in such a beautiful place. I felt sad when I heard it was the last one. But this was almost 8 years ago these days everybody has jump on the non duality band wagon and they have 200-300 presenters at a convention. I much prefer the way it was.

I think this woman nails it pretty nicely what Ulrich, also known as Eckhart Tolle, is all about: Making money with "enlightenment" sleeping-songs for middle-class people who can affort to buy his particular kind of spiritual valium.
