  • Essential Teachings Special: Discovering Our True Nature
    Feb 12 2026

    Originally aired May 26, 2022. In this podcast Eckhart talks about our dependence on people, places, things and concepts as the source of our identity. He says most of us derive a sense of self from our attachments. He believes the essence of who we truly are is much deeper. Eckhart calls it the alive stillness at the center of our being. Once we become aware of it, our attachment to external things fades and we discover our true nature. Eckhart illustrates this idea with the story of a Buddhist monk who sought to release worldly things. His difficulties were great, until he let go absolutely.

I’ve come across these after reading Tolle’s other books. I have found extra wisdom and calm here. I like being able to start and finish my day with one or more episodes to keep me calm and present throughout my day. Many thanks to Tolle for providing these free.

A dose of daily calm

Eckhart keeps it soo simple.
Presence.

For me, he is the only person on the planet who helps me sleep. He is soo boring while he guides to presence, that insomnia is no longer an issue because I'm either bored to sleep or peacefully present. Win Win for a long term insomniac ☺️🙏✨️

Soo boring and that's why I love it!
