Eckhart Tolle is widely recognized as one of the most inspiring and visionary spiritual teachers in the world today. With his international bestsellers, _The Power of Now_ and _A New Earth_ —translated into more than 50 languages—he has introduced millions to the joy and freedom of living life in the present moment. The New York Times has described him as “the most popular spiritual author in the United States,” and in 2011, Watkins Review (now Watkins Mind Body Spirit) named him “the most spiritually influential person in the world.”
Eckhart’s profound yet simple teachings have helped countless people around the globe experience a state of vibrantly alive inner peace in their daily lives. His teachings focus on the significance and power of Presence, the awakened state of consciousness, which transcends ego and discursive thinking. Eckhart sees this awakening as the essential next step in human evolution.
“No challenges, no growth,” as Eckhart Tolle suggests, is deeply rooted in the understanding that pure awareness and infinite intelligence unfold through contrast and opposition. Challenges are not obstacles to be avoided, but opportunities for deeper realization. From the perspective of God-consciousness, growth arises when we face experiences with openness and presence, allowing life to move through us without resistance. In this way, even difficult moments are seen as part of the divine intelligence orchestrating our development and spiritual evolution.
Through the lens of preorchestration, challenges are integral to the preordained flow of life. They are the divine intelligence working through us to reveal deeper layers of awareness and understanding. Growth occurs when we are able to see that every challenge is a reflection of our own connection to the greater whole, and embracing this view transforms difficulty into a doorway to spiritual evolution. It is in meeting the moment with presence that we align ourselves with the flow of God and experience true transformation.
Also, I recently created a YouTube channel where I explore themes like pure awareness, God, interconnectedness, and the preorchestrated nature of reality. Having experienced profound states of God-consciousness, I’m excited to share these insights and connect with others on this journey. Feel free to check out my first video and join the conversation! 😄

There is no growth, no progression. WHAT IS ALREADY IS. There is no such thing as the power of now, just NOW that is POWER literally.
It is so true that we can’t go very far conceptually. 🙏Thanks Eckhart ❤
I love you Mr.Tolle, thank you for doing what you do. 🙏❤️
Absolutely brilliant!!! 👏😘🙏💜🦘🇦🇺 xoxoxo
Thanks for making me laugh.
Growth is a delusion. You are the Son of God. What occurs is fear and blocks are removed, not ‘growth.’
I appreciate this video and love much of what is shared but I don't accept the premise "no challenges, no growth". It is possible to grow through joy, through serenity and through peace. I live a simple life, I have quit 9 to 5 jobs and work part time as a hypnotherapist and lecturer — this is work that I love. Other than that, my life consists of meditation practice, yoga, exercise, good home cooked food, spiritual discussion groups, outings with friends, reading, lucid dreaming, enjoying time with my dogs. I feel like I am growing immensely in this serene situation, more so than I ever did by dealing with problems or raising to meet challenges. We can grow through challenges but we can also stay the same or even regress towards unconsciousness if we spiral down into negativity. And we can definitively grow in challenge-free times, just like plants and animals thrive and flourish when they are nurtured, supported and cared for.
The idea that suffering is necessary for awakening is a powerful one. But what do you think—can we awaken without going through hardship? Or does it take struggle to truly evolve?
Excellent conference.
Thank you very much Mr E Tolle for sharing your knowledge!
There is no controlling father figure💪🙏
Yassss 🔥💜🔥
Growth rarely feels like growth in the moment… It usually feels like resistance, frustration, and sometimes even failure. But just like muscles grow by being torn and rebuilt stronger, our spirit strengthens through discomfort. The challenge isn’t a wall—it’s a doorway. The only question is, will you step through?
I've shared thoughts on this in some of my videos if you’re on this path too btw. But man do I love having my perspective expanded by Eckhart ❤️
Funny video!❤❤❤❤hahaha😂😂😂😂
Analogies, parables, poems, poetic imagery… my stubborn self can be coaxed in this way. I will save this video as one of my most preferred.🧐
Please some way try to mention, I know few spiritual teacher they once lived among native American they work few decade with them author introduced his master an elder man who possess very deadly knowledge and visions. They both had very dark hidden knowledge. like that of people has lived the main elder were guiding him, I afraid from them their their words were very dangerous for minority peoples I felt they as an angel understanding me after that I afraid to share anything to anyone I also wanted vision for myself what do
Wir sind schon alles
Your words remind me of my old days when I used to work nine to five, now $93k fortnightly, retired my parents and in good health!!!❤️
No ones denying challenge results in growth but theres absolutely no excuse why we cant atleast get guidance along the way. Direct… Clear… Guidance.
