on the road. spiritually speaking.

As an explorer I have seen some wonderful things on the road and experienced some incredibly eye-opening stories. And while seeking I found myself coming full-circle back to the simple words of Mr Tolle.

Like many tokens of spiritual teachings, I dismissed him with my practical cynicism as being overly spiritual besides often falling asleep to his audiobooks because he has such a relaxing zen-like voice, nevertheless now I see, his words make sense to me on a more experiential level and I am grateful to have his guidance at times of solitude and wonderings. Yes. I embrace the cheese and would like to give Tolle a hug one day.

As a wee token of gratitude and using a bit of my very amateur hand of imovie video editing, I have had some fun splicing shots from around the world with a rather cool track (name pending) and some insights from his audiobook A New Earth.

This is the blurb for his book:

With his bestselling spiritual guide The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle inspired millions of readers to discover the freedom and joy of a life lived "in the now." In A New Earth, Tolle expands on these powerful ideas to show how transcending our ego-based state of consciousness is not only essential to personal happiness, but also the key to ending conflict and suffering throughout the world. Tolle describes how our attachment to the ego creates the dysfunction that leads to anger, jealousy, and unhappiness, and shows readers how to awaken to a new state of consciousness and follow the path to a truly fulfilling existence.
