    Essential Teachings Special: Awakening Right Where You Are

    Original Air Date: September 23, 2021. Eckhart talks with a live audience and urges participants to wake up from the delusion that the things we think will make us happy… won’t.

He says whatever our situation is, we can surrender to life’s challenges and awaken right where we are.

    Essential Teachings Special: Releasing Barriers to Presence

    Original Air Date: September 16, 2021 In this podcast, Eckhart talks with a live audience about clearing away the obstacles to presence. Eckhart says the entire universe is awakening and is in the early stages of something vast. We are a part of that. To be spiritually awake, means releasing barriers created by the mind. Eckhart says while the ability to think is a great evolutionary achievement, people have become so enmeshed in thought, they’ve lost touch with their deeper essence and their spiritual legacy.

    Essential Teachings Special: Wisdom And Stillness

    Eckhart talks with a live audience about the importance of cultivating wisdom. He says the first step is acknowledging the magnitude of all that we don’t know. Then we step out of our “thinking mind,” with its chronic judgments and interpretations, and step into what he calls aware stillness. It’s there that we have access to a much deeper intelligence, one connected to our higher purpose which Eckhart believes is to realize our oneness with the totality of the universe.

    Essential Teachings Special: Inner Spaciousness

    Eckhart talks to a live audience about bringing meditation practice, inner spaciousness and what he calls presence, into our everyday lives.  However, he cautions against making meditation one more chore on our “To-Do” list. He says so often there is the underlying assumption that we must become good at meditation or succeed at it. That in itself can actually become a hindrance. The idea is not to do, but to be.
