About this episode

Eckhart Tolle discusses the importance of stillness and how to respond rather than react to conflict during the stages of awakening.

Originally aired August 4, 2022. In this episode Eckhart talks about the importance of finding stillness. He says we are never more ourselves than when we are still. Eckhart then answers questions about what we can expect during the stages of awakening. He says as we become more conscious, we learn to respond rather than react to conflict. Eckhart explains we may feel the emotion, but it doesn’t take us over because ego diminishes as we step into the light of presence. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
