Eckhart Tolle Discussion Community

WW, thanks for sharing this link, I actually watched it a few months ago. But, only got halfway through it because they seemingly took it off YouTube at the time. So, will have another watch. No choice wrong, just a different experience. Jen, you've been a great 'teacher' for me over the years on th...

May I requote Jean Klein, from "In Touch" by John Prendergast:

I'm actually reading this book now based on the recommendation of someone. Thus far, really like it.

If you want something specifically, then you can play around with it and focus on that as long as you're not clinging to it as an outcome. For myself and for many other people, there are countless things that we all 'want' and not just one thing. Unless you're working on a project or a specific goal...

Welcome to the forum. Decades worth of posts here for you to explore or you can just start posting now. Either way enjoy your stay here.

I wonder... if one never wastes a single opportunity in his/her life, then would he/she be wasting the opportunity to explore the experience of opportunity wasting? :D I think you're on to something :idea: I don't think I buy into the idea that consciousness is growing, or even needs to grow. Maybe...

Thanks for sharing Rachmiel. Went to an OBE seminar in NYC couple of years back through the organization IAC. Had some very interesting stuff. So, wonder if this is a similar thing. Will check it out.

Jen thanks so much for contributing here and sharing your own wisdom. Eckhart's teachings still come back to me with the simplicity of his words. Such a fascinating topic and one that will forever intrigue me, until I croak and get all of my own answers or that NDE I have forever been waiting for :D...

Thanks for contributing WW and Jen. I agree with both of you. I do believe that the larger purpose is within some sort of infinite expansion/evolution of this thing we call 'God/Source/Being'. Almost like, experience is so infinite, like the imagination of the mind of a child, that each new experien...

To carry on with this discussion, one of the things that has come up for me, is the question of.....well, what is the 'goal' of life then? I am posing this question from an experiential perspective of how this directly relates to my own life, and how I can apply it to my own life; how this relates t...

I sent this in a PM to Jen and here is her response. I will add more to this after as well. E2B : I'd be curious to know if, in your NDE, you learned that everything was sort of already 'set in motion' in a sense? I found your comment on free will very interesting. It's something I've gone back and ...

An attorney (consigliere) named Roberta Grimes has spent 40 years researching the afterlife (through information gathered through deep-trance mediums and other sources) and has come to the conclusion that our afterlives are solid, physical, Earth-like and very fun and happy (believe it or not) The ...

Thanks for sharing openly Rachmiel and you don't need to explain yourself to me or anyone, as to why you post. Again, it was just an observation and didn't mean to de-rail the thread, but then again, as Smiley Jenn used to say, to paraphrase, these threads tend to branch off into a variety of differ...

Thanks for the responses gents. I guess anyone can also say, E2B, if you don't like it, no one asked you to respond, and I'd say that's a fair enough assertion as well! I understand your reply, Rachmiel. I too am very analytical. Many of us, are just very analytical people and that's just kind of th...

What I find interesting is that these types of discussions (which there have been a large variety of over the years on this forum, including this very same query), are fun no doubt to debate, discuss, share views on, and play with, and chew on, but they are theoretical, conceptual, and oriented towa...

E2B: But, there's more to it too, because I personally believe that we are each also existing/creating our own individual realities in a sense, while intertwining in each other's stories through a common consensus of sorts. Think parallel universes. Wild stuff RachMiel Okay, this needs some explanat...
