The realization of being is the end of all problems.

In this episode, Eckhart talks about living more consciously

and how it transforms our lives.

He says, when we live in both the being and the doing dimension,

it brings harmony, especially in our relationships.

He explains we're no longer looking for conflict when we don't fear or compete with other people because the toxic dysfunction that is part of the ego dissipates.

He says eventually we are able to sense the deeper self in others beyond the personality,

because we have experienced it in ourselves. He believes

the recognition of the sacredness is the greatest gift we can give anyone.

Eckhart says it is also what Buddhist call Mehta or loving kindness. He believes this is what the world truly needs because it has the power to transform everything.

Awakening just... everything. Awakening, just becoming familiar with being present, this relaxed alert

alertness, and now let's go more deeply into what actually the now is. First of all

it's yes you become more aware of sensible and that's already a wonderful thing to see how a life the world is and

to sense that there is more than the physical things that you see,

that everything has an inherent sense of aliveness or beingness,

especially natural things, but everything. Everything has the sense that is alive,

a manifestation of life. And then you become aware not just of your sense perceptions, you also become aware of yourself but not the personal self with its narrative

with its live story not that you become aware of yourself as the perceiving consciousness.

So you, as we sit here there's the room there's the voice the screens the lights people in the room

You're aware of that, but are you also able to be aware of yourself? You are the

consciousness that is perceiving this and you can sense this consciousness not as something because it's not a thing

but as a kind of spacious presence, a kind of a beingness, a conscious presence.
