Sintesi dell'editore
Fulfillment and Joy Through the Realization of Our Essential Identity
When challenges arise in your life, what happens inside of you? For many of us, the larger the problem, the more we resist, contract, and react unconsciously. On the other hand, explains Eckhart Tolle, in any given moment we have the chance to remain open to life, align with what is, and experience the natural sense of peace and aliveness that he calls "the joy of being".
The Joy of Being is a four-session program that explores the process of awakening to our identity beyond the limits of thought and the impact this transformation can have in the world. Speaking after a three-year teaching hiatus, Eckhart discusses:
- Working with whatever conditions arise as your guide for the continuing practice of presence
- Using the inner body and sense perception as anchors to the now
- Freedom from suffering - the spiritual seeker's best motive
- The practice of "being the space" for the situations and circumstances you often find difficult
"The joy of being is derived not from something that happens or from some object but from the essence of who you are," teaches Eckhart. "To know yourself as that is joy." The Joy of Being points to a revolutionary phase in human development where thinking is no longer the dominant aspect of our lives, and unconditioned awareness expresses itself through and as each one of us.

More of the same
If your familiar with Eckhart he speaks from presence and any book you pick up of his takes you there. I was a little disappointed hoping to hear something new. I used to enjoy his sense of humor but not so much in this one. There were a couple of questions asked that pertained to my situation so that was helpful. I really love what Eckhart has brought to humanity but I will no longer keep buying anything new. I have most everything he has done and that is enough. I can listen to the power of now and a new earth and refresh all I need to remember.

I am here now ...
The sound of the words takes you beyond words and beyond sound to the stillness within. Eckhart's timeless message that you are to allow the Now to be as it is and so realize the formless essence of the Now as consciousness itself. Be there as the awareness when your mind starts saying things and be aware of the temporary nature of all forms.
Could have done without the flute music but loved Eckhart's rendition of "A Lion Sleeps Tonight".

Inspiring
His style and content are truly inspired. The Presence he projects is the best demonstration of what he stammers to express. Brilliant and beautiful in every way!

Doorways....
Eckhart has been a doorman to the doorways for me for years now. Guiding me and helping me find a greater awareness of things I’d known all my life yet never knew what they were. Instead of just standing in these doorways he guided through and deeper into them and consciousness. I’ve had to return to his guidance multiple times over the years because I would get lost in the world and my mind again. Not everyone is ready for consciousness quite yet, but he is the first teacher that helped me see what was always right in front of me. Or more aptly, within me, that being, eternal peace.

Not for me
I get his teachings on presence but I wish he gave more stories or examples.
I guess he is an acquired taste to listen to.

not funny
The speakers constant laughing, and the hysterical laughter of the audience was distracting, and annoying.

This should not be listed as a book
This is a recording of a group meditation session and the audio is poor quality. It should be labeled better.

Performance
Background laughing was annoying. I totally understand the point but think there could be less "help".

A big fan, just not of this one.
I loved previous paper backs that I read and this was the 1st audio book from him that I listened to. I didn't realise that it wasn't an audiobook but more a recording of him speaking at a retreat.
Still good messages but terrible audio quality and feel a little short changed.

Wonderful, as always.
I own so many of Eckhart's audio recordings and I particularly enjoyed this one. Listening to his wise and calming words every morning on the way to work puts me in a perfect mood to face the rest of the day.

Terrible background noise
I get it that it's a quiet time for slow and present being but it's very distracting the white noise and really not happy with it being that way

Profound and funny
Eckhart is so funny, when he calmly without ego explains the human condition which afflicts all of us. From his vantage point it looks so easy and of course it is, we just get so court up in ego play and sudo importance. A memorable read.
