The Joy of Being

Eckhart Tolle believes that the joy of being is available only to those who can be in harmony with the present moment and don’t chase the phantoms of future benefits. Don’t believe your thoughts, don’t believe advertising, he says: nothing from the outside can make a person happy for long.

In this seminar, Tolle explains how to learn to simply be, to find a source of joy in life itself—that is, within yourself—and become invulnerable to inevitable changes in the world. A new seminar of the spiritual master is dedicated to developing this ability to feel comfortable in your own presence.

The teacher shows how to learn to simply “be,” to come to inner comfort through feelings and calmness, rather than through action—and to experience true joy.

Eckhart Tolle is one of the most influential spiritual teachers in the world. In his teachings, he provides examples from different religions, without identifying himself with any one of them. The foundation of his teachings is personal experience of deep inner transformation, which happened to him at age 29 during a period of profound depression and radically changed his entire further life.
