Eckhart Tolle, Spiritual Teacher of Enlightenment
Eckhart Tolle is a contemporary spiritual teacher of Enlightenment, who teaches a path that transcends the ego through the power of now. Personal growth leads to spiritual peace and happiness.
Eckhart was born in Germany, where he spent the first thirteen years of his life. When he graduated from the University of London he became a research scholar, and supervisor at Cambridge University.
At the age of twenty-nine he underwent a profound and sudden spiritual transformation that virtually dissolved his old identity and radically changed the course of his life.
The next few years were spent integrating, deepening, and understanding the transformation, so that it could be communicated to others.
Eckhart Tolle is a prime example that spiritual evolution is indeed mankind’s greatest purpose, and that major spiritual advancements can be sudden and abrupt.
Tolle’s teachings are simple and understandable to most spiritual seekers. He teaches many of the same truths taught by the greatest spiritual masters of all time, yet in new ways.
As all Truth is within you, reading Tolle’s books or watching his lectures activates the spiritual potential within you. However this can only be achieved by intention and surrender.
The capacity to understand spiritual truth and the higher levels of consciousness comes from spiritual intention itself, which is beyond ego.
The ego does not wish to understand, which is why humility and surrender are so powerful. Through them, the ego begins to weaken its hold.
The Ultimate Reality is attained when all illusions have been surrendered. That human beings have identified themselves as mortal, physical bodies is the greatest of all lies.
This has led to global suffering on unimaginable scales. By transcending the false ego, the truth of your divine immortality shines forth as the presence which is your True Self.
Eckhart’s teachings are clear and precise. He covers such topics as:
How to rise above thought, The way out of pain, The origin of fear, The ego’s search for wholeness, The delusion of time, Accessing the power of now, Freedom from unhappiness, The source of Chi, Enlightened relationships, The core of the ego, Finding who you truly are, and many more.
Eckhart’s books are of great value to all spiritual seekers of Enlightenment:

Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find anything that agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.
