Wow. Really impressed.

Will listen to it over and over again. When I listen to his voice, it brings me inner peace.
I feel like he tells you nothing and at the same time absolutely EVERYTHING! You gotta be fully Present with his teachings. Grateful for his wisdom and knowledge! Thank you, E.T.!

Post 9/11 retreat - a recommended experience

A retreat with Tolle is always a heart opener and this one is no exception. This retreat was conceived not long after 9/11 so it reflects this but is not "limited" by it.

Performance rating is mere my mind minding microphone issues resulting in occational bad audio quality. However, let not that discourage you.

The key, the secret to life

This may be the best story ever told by the most peaceful and grounded human alive today. Listen and feel the presence, the peace, the love, the life that you are.

The quest is fulfilled in the Brilliance of Presence!

Beautifully articulated and so pleasantly delivered. I had read New Earth years ago and found that this has brought me to a greater comprehension of the fullness and completeness of Presence!

Nice and long

Eckhart talks about things I have not heard him mention before in this nice and long talk. He should do stand up comedy, he's hilarious. lots of insights and laughs in this. Some parts the audio quality is very bassy. Be sure to hear the end, it's the best part.

Deep, Profound Teaching on What Really Matters

This is a series of teachings that touches all sorts of human experiences, including pain, sickness, tragedy, and death. The theme is basically how to keep your focus on awareness, presence, the 'now' even during the most difficult of circumstances.

I am overwhelmed by the Presence he affords

ACIM states that to be honest you are consistent in all you do, say, and think. This author holds true in all his pointers he provides in this book.
