Well said with humor and compassion❤🙏

Lena Krupinski says:

I felt compassion when they were being nasty 🙏 I was happy I was making progress in forgiving them as Jesus said, " forgive them father they know not what they do" but when they're nasty.again I get upset & angry as they were spreading evil lies about me. But I'm feeling the compassion now as I know as Eckhart says it's the programming, conditioning !! 🙏Thanks Eckhart your a great teacher .🙏🌌🙏

Zion says:

I think Eckhart might not understand how abusive people can be. He wants us to just sit there and be compassionate while being abused by family…. how about boundaries and selfrespect?
What love is there is allowing someoneto abuse you?

My family is really close, We always get together we always have parties constantly all year We have one really crazy trumpster in the family that gives us stress but he also has a good side He can be a whole lot of fun…. But it does sound right to just see and know that that is who the person is, I personally well and all my family members We just accept this one family member who was a die-hard trumpster, of course it's difficult but we rather stay together as a family, I would never recommend people pulling apart because people will always make up excuses to get away from other family members but we should all try to hold our family together…. This is what Our father taught us and this is what we all practice and we have something that too few people have and that is; *Our family is always together 🌟😊

I stopped watching Tolle because all his videos always had to be in front of an audience. I couldn't tolerate their chuckles, guffaws, outright laughter, etc in the midst of a spiritual talk. I'm glad Tolle no longer feels the need to perform and is just willing to be himself, a sign of growth.

Thank you Eckhart 😘

Auke De Boer says:

It actually so simple, that I looked over it for years. And how can I blame anyone, if I was sleeping myself for a long time?

Soundscapes 461 says:

Forgive them for they know not what they do, turn and walk away. Get out of Draculas Castle before it gets dark.

ML R says:

Those of you promoting the fad of 'No Contact' are missing the point of this channel and video. Parents are people – flawed humans. Love them as such and just practice non-reaction. You can still have boundaries without being cruel. And always ask yourself if you are the one stuck in Ego.

Rain says:

How do I deal with toxic people…i cut the ties & run. Toxic people regardless of who they are have no place in my mind, heart or space. There's no place for them in my life.

Michelle Todd says:

What is it called when the family member only has a toxic relationship with you. When others see them purposely go out of their way to be mean & hurt you. I speak of my MIL. She has what seems to have tolerable if not in some cases odd relationships with everyone else
i 8:03 n the large extended family. Some things seem odd, but you go with the flow. I've been told to ignore or be kind; she's an older woman. I actually do things, and people say I couldn't be that kind, and I think I am not being "kind". Just human. She caused a lot if pain between me and my husband. I tried several times to tell him I am his wife, but he being so desperate for her live and approval picked her and I just kept my feelings to myself.
