Eckhart Tolle on Great Western Classics

Reflections on the Writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson, Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, Thomas à Kempis, and Plutarch

Eckhart Tolle on Great Western Classics presents a series of rare teaching sessions where Eckhart shares from his personal bookshelf the works he holds dear to his heart, and continues to turn to for guidance and inspiration. The messages in these books are as relevant and helpful today as they were when first put to paper. Because they speak to the human condition—to each one of us—these writings have survived through the ages to offer practical wisdom “about how to live sanely in the world.”

Eckhart’s is not an academic approach or intellectual study; his invitation here is to look “through not at” these classic books to the spiritual realization they are pointing us toward. Join Eckhart as he brings to life the words and teachings of those he considers some of the earliest “flowers” of the awakening new consciousness:

• “Eckhart on Emerson”—Eckhart reads and comments on passages from the collected essays of Ralph Waldo Emerson

• “Meditations” by Marcus Aurelius—Discover the 2,000-year-old writings of “philosopher-king” Marcus Aurelius

• “The Wisdom of Epictetus”—Eckhart explores the transformational teachings of the Stoic Epictetus

• “The Imitation of Christ”—the path to spiritual awakening, as revealed by the 14th-century mystic Thomas à Kempis

• “On Contentment: An Essay by Plutarch”—a timeless teaching on unblocking the obstacles to the inner peace that is everyone’s birthright

“Powerful books are more than simply books,” Eckhart teaches. “They are living energy fields that correspond to the consciousness of the state in which they were written.” Whether you’re new to these perennial gems or experiencing them for the first time, Eckhart Tolle on Great Western Classics is rich with practical insight for the spiritual journey.
