A New Online Course

TOLLE
The awakened state of consciousness is already within you. It’s just covered up, hidden by mental noise and emotional turmoil.
—Eckhart Tolle
An Invitation to Liberate Yourself and Abide in Stillness and Presence
“Why is my life so hard? How did I make all these bad decisions and mistakes? And what’s going to go wrong next?”
The source of much of our suffering, Eckhart Tolle teaches, arises from the thinking mind—regrets about our past, worries about the future, and all the very convincing beliefs that create the false egoic self.
And the grip of the mind is a strong one, he muses, because:
“Every thought pretends that it matters so much.”
But as Eckhart also teaches, there IS a way to free ourselves:
“When you recognize that there is a voice in your head that pretends to be you, you are awakening out of your unconscious identification with the stream of thinking.
“As you notice it, you realize that who you are is not the voice—the thinker—but the one who is aware of it.”
With his new online course, Freedom from the Thinking Mind, Eckhart Tolle invites you to shine this awareness on the mental structures that keep you imprisoned and, through the gaps between thoughts, open to the vast consciousness of limitless Being.
What makes this program such a valuable and unique resource?
With Eckhart’s guidance, we delved into his expansive archive of new and legacy recordings to create this definitive, in-depth immersion for freeing ourselves from the suffering of the thinking mind.
Here, you’ll explore:
How our unconscious thoughts, worries, and ruminations build a false sense of selfa
Why so much of our unhappiness arises from the thinking mind
How the egoic self accumulates negative emotions into “the pain body” and how to dissolve it
How to return to the restorative stillness of “the Deep I,” the unperturbable ocean of consciousness beneath the turmoil of our thoughts.
In this course, you’ll find much more than conceptual knowledge. Why? Because Eckhart intends his sessions to be an immersion into actual, moment-to-moment awareness. As many who’ve experienced these teachings describe it:
“Beyond the words themselves, simply watching and listening to Eckhart Tolle invokes in me the direct and felt experience of Presence.”
Are you ready to release your worries, victimhood, and cycles of addictive thinking? Whether you’re new to this beloved teacher’s wisdom or a long-time student, we warmly invite you to join us in this opportunity to free yourself … and come home to the peace and stillness of who you truly are.
