Being and Doing: Balancing the Two Dimensions of Existence | Eckhart Tolle

Eckhart Tolle explores the dual nature of human existence, encompassing both the being and doing dimensions. He emphasizes the importance of awakening to the timeless dimension of being while navigating the temporal aspects of human life. Eckhart Tolle explains that awakening involves recognizing and embodying both dimensions, and that brief moments of peace and lightness often occur when thinking subsides, allowing one to feel intensely alive and present.

When I was in college (‘70), I remember climbing around in nature because it was all around me. I had those moments of stillness and realized it was God.

I am so grateful for Being in this same life as Eckhart 💞🙏💖

When you are awakening, the challenges of the world become helpful to you.

Ekhart, J Krishnamurthy, Sadhguru and few others, changed the entire perspective of life for me. Over the last year or so I have realised they are all saying the same thing, pointing in the same direction albeit in different ways. Ekhart is very practical and his words are magic. As he says himself words are limited when you are talking about a transcendent dimension but he’s still magical.

I feel like I owe my every breath to these genius souls who walked on earth alongside us. Thank you for helping me reborn ❤❣️

I always feel like he’s in a constant state of channeling divine information like a constant channel

I throw a love blanket over my challenges and leave it alone and trust, best I can, to dissolve. After following Abraham and Neville for a long time I appreciate a good mix of these teachers. Ultimately, I can feel the truth and I enjoy some humour thrown in along the path.

Each day, try to have your" being" shining bright as you go about your " human" life. Our continuous practice. I learned this from Eckhart years ago . He refers to it as the cross. The human part is the horizontal and the being is the vertical. Beautiful. Isn't Eckhart great???

[williamhoffman]

totally agree, routinely keeping my mind empty brings answers to the problems I face almost like magic. Keep that grail empty my friends.

Perfect guidance for balancing the doing energy and being present through challenges.... being present is the ultimate weapon for challenges coming in mind❤🙏 Thank you Eckhart ❤😌🙏

[veraintuizione]

Absolutely true 🙏.
The challenges are so many and tirelessly continuous that the only way to overcome them is to truly surrender to them.
A deep and definitive surrender and above all without the burden of whys. Then all the clouds disappear. The horizon becomes clean and bright and a perpetual light will mark your path even in the deepest darkness.❤
To tell the truth there is a why for them. To see the Truth.
So grateful 💓🙏✨✨✨✨🌺
