Essential Teachings Special: Dealing Wit...

OPRAH AND ECKHART TOLLE
About this episode

Original Air Date: June 24, 2021

In this podcast, Eckhart Tolle answers questions from a live audience about issues we all can relate to… like what to do when we compare ourselves to others, how to turn family arguments into opportunities for conscious relationships and how anger can actually be used as a tool for spiritual growth.  Eckhart says comparison is one of the favorite devices of the ego.  He says when we get in touch with the essence of who we truly are, the dysfunctional dynamic of comparing and despairing becomes unnecessary and meaningless.
