The Reason Why You Aren't Exactly Who You Think You Are | Eckhart Tolle

If your mind will not stop, here is something strange that works. Focus your attention on nothing. On the empty space in the room, or the space in the sky. Because there is nothing there for the mind to grab, it falls quiet on its own. Eckhart Tolle uses this to point at something remarkable. That same emptiness you notice out there begins to be felt within you as an inner spaciousness, a stillness and depth. This is not your personality or your history. He calls it the deep I. And the deeper you sense it, the more you realize it is not really yours at all. It is the deep I of the universe itself, the formless source out of which everything comes and into which everything returns. There is comfort in this. Everything that exists is born and one day dies. Nothing stays in form forever. But being comes before existence. The space of consciousness you touch in that still moment was never born, and it cannot die. It is what you most deeply are. Eckhart goes much further into this in the full session.
