Eckhart Tolle

Eckhart Tolle is a writer, spiritual enlightener and orator whose books have not lost popularity around the world for decades and are published in many languages. Videos from his trainings are gaining millions of views on the Internet, and simple truths told by a man are scattered into quotes. However, the German was not always successful, rich and satisfied with life. He had to go through a difficult path before finding his place in the sun.

Ulrich Leonard Tolle (that was the name of the future writer at birth) was born in the small German town of Lunen, which is located not far from Dortmund. The inspiration for the change of name was the persona of his mystical countryman Meister Eckhart, whose work Ulrich loved.

In one of his many interviews, the man said that his early childhood in Germany was unhappy. Until the age of 13, a negative atmosphere grew more and more in his house, and an unpleasant hostile atmosphere reigned in elementary school. Further, unexpected changes occurred in the biography of the young man - he moved to permanent residence with his father in Spain.

The man asked his son to choose between entering a comprehensive school and inviting teachers to his home. Eckhart preferred private education. As a result, he did not attend regular schools until the age of 22. Tolle perceived the learning process in his own way and acted very selectively - he studied philosophy, literature, astronomy, foreign languages ​​and the basics of creativity.

At the age of 19, the guy moved to the UK, where for 3 years he taught local businessmen German and Spanish in a London school. At the end of this difficult stage, Tolle plunged into a serious depression, his constant companions were anxiety and fear. The guy, as he claims:

According to Eckhart, by the age of 23 he began to be interested in what the human intellect is capable of, his thoughts began to actively develop. He looked for clues, turning to philosophy, psychology and literature, counting on the fact that the answers will surely surface in the intricate labyrinth of complex reflections.

All these inner searches of Tolle took place during the period when he was engaged in entering the university and attending evening lectures. After completing his education at the University of London, the future speaker entered Cambridge in 1977 as a graduate student.

At the age of 29, Eckhart, who survived a prolonged depression, bordering on the desire to commit suicide, experienced a deep inner transformation of his own personality and everything with which he previously associated himself. This event influenced the entire subsequent life of a man. In the future, he vividly recalled that momentous night - Tolle woke up from the "almost unbearable" depressive feeling pressing on his mind.

He could no longer and did not want to live with himself. Eckhart wondered "Who am I?" and felt as if he was being pulled into a kind of emptiness. At that moment, the man did not fully understand what exactly happened to him: the image of the unfortunate and eternally suffering "I" he created disappeared in the darkness and then completely disappeared.

Waking up the next morning, the future speaker walked the streets of London all day and was amazed at the extent to which everything around was incredibly wonderful, and in every passerby one could feel a deep inner balance and calmness. Even the traffic was harmonious.

From that very moment, he began to constantly feel this amazing power in himself in any, even the most difficult situation. Later, Tolle began to constantly visit Russell Square Park, which is located in the heart of London. He sat on one of the benches, in a state of complete inner bliss, and watched the people passing by.

At that time, the man was visiting his friend, while from time to time he moved to a Buddhist monastery, and sometimes even spent long nights in the open air in the forest park "Hampstead Heath." Eckhart's family considered him irresponsible and somewhat insane. Former fellow students of the writer in Cambridge and other acquaintances could not understand in any way what had happened to him and in what truth the unusual German now believes.

Then Tolle moved to the south-west of Great Britain, to a place called Glastonbury, which is located 3 hours from the capital. After spending more than 5 years in seclusion in this place with an alternative lifestyle, the man returned to London and began to earn money as a spiritual teacher and publish his books.

In the fall of 2017, the speaker spoke to a Russian audience for the first time, gathering a record number of participants during the entire lecture period.

Eckhart Tolle has been happy in his personal life for many years with his wife and assistant named Kim Eng. The couple develop together a teaching about the present. And the woman, in addition to her husband's partner, is a yoga teacher. The couple has no children.

The writer prefers a secluded lifestyle. Although Tolle has a microblog on the Instagram social network, he does not upload personal photos to the Network.
