transcending our stories. In this podcast, Eckhart talks to a live audience about our tendency to

manufacture stories about ourselves and others. He discusses our desperate need to be right and to make

others wrong. And while it may feel gratifying in the moment, Eckhart says, having a story

actually strengthens the ego, keeping us stuck. However, we don't have to stay in the moment, Eckhart says, having a story actually strengthens the ego, keeping us stuck.

However, we don't have to stay in that negativity.

He explains how we can learn to shift our inner narrative, release the ego, and align ourselves

with the peace of the present moment.

I'm beginning to receive your questions.

Thank you very much.

If possible, write as legibly as you can.

Otherwise, I'll get really irritated. And my mind

Do they expect me to read this, to be able to read this?

Why can't they write more lentibly?

Isn't it common sense that they should write lentibly?

Why do people do things like that?

That would be a normal ego reaction to something that in itself

is perfectly okay,

because you can either read it or you can't.

But the ego adds a story to it,

and behind the story is always an attempt to be more right than the other person.

There's always an attempt to have in some kind of superiority.

It's unconscious, of course.
