A Path Out of Suffering & Darkness

Are you moving through a period of personal darkness — or watching the world around you struggle and feeling the weight of it yourself? For some, these times of difficulty may be what Eckhart Tolle calls a “dark night of the soul.” Whether you are in the midst of one or simply sensing that uncertain times lie ahead, his teaching offers a way to meet that darkness not with fear, but with awareness.

In these free video teachings, distilled from his new online course, the beloved teacher and author of The Power of Now invites us to engage Presence as an essential light on the journey, and to use our pain and confusion as catalysts to spiritual awakening.

Join Eckhart as he explores:

1. The Secret of Awakening from Suffering

How the false egoic self creates suffering—and a short practice for using our challenges as windows for accessing the light of pure Being, our true identity.

2. Clear Signs You Are in the Dark Night of the Soul

How to identify the dark night phenomenon, and how working with these emotional and mental indicators can begin the process of liberation.

3. The Way Out of the Dark Night of the Soul

How to use “the sword of Presence” to cut through illusory darkness and confusion, allowing your true, transcendent identity to emerge.

4. Is Depression the Same as the Dark Night of the Soul?

How depression differs from the dark night experience, and practical ways to prevent emotional and energetic depletion so common in our modern world.

5. The Collective Dark Night of the Soul and How We Can Help

How our current global turmoil may actually be quickening a larger spiritual emergence, and how to immunize yourself from suffering while you support this awakening process.

You cannot fight against darkness or suffering and win. All that is necessary is the light of consciousness—and you are that light.
