Synopsis

The essence of meditation is not something we do; rather, it is simply to be, fully present and aligned with life in the moment. This is the central teaching of Eckhart Tolle’s What is Meditation? In this audio session, Eckhart helps us transcend our beliefs and ideas about meditation—including the tendency to turn the practice into a means to an end—in order to realize directly our formless nature as being that is primary to any doing.

What is Meditation? explores:

• What your sitting practice can—and cannot—do for you

• Acknowledging the “pulling power” of thoughts

• Engaging with the reality of consciousness itself

• The arising of “space consciousness”—and how this opens us to joy, creativity, and peace

• Honoring life by saying yes to what is

Whether you’ve struggled with meditation or you’re taking an interest in it for the first time, What is Meditation? gives us a new understanding of why we practice—and an inspirational guide for making life itself our daily meditation.

Its very beautiful deep five into yourself. If you are into awakening and enlightenment, this is a must to listen to. I love every single part of this journey.

Goodreads review by Karen on January 27, 2019

3.5 stars. It seems a bit weird to be giving Eckhart Tolle anything but five stars. I like to make sure to listen to these at least a few times a year. I think the reason it's not a five-star for me is because I've heard these types of thoughts/teachings several times and there wasn't much new here f......more

Goodreads review by Stuart on January 31, 2019

What an incredible experience it must be to be in his presence on a retreat. I get ridiculous goosebumps and an ecstatic shivering over my head when I hear him talk. This has to be done as an audible. You really get a sense of his joyfulness in this unlike his reading from his books and he has real......more

Goodreads review by Pamela on January 16, 2026

I bought this on Audible to listen to during a long trip, and it turned a 13-hour car ride into something I truly enjoyed every minute of. I was so excited when I realized it was actually one of his full 3-day courses. There was one gentleman in the audience whose infectious laugh had everyone in sti......more

Goodreads review by Sydney on February 18, 2021

Before reading this, it would probably be helpful to know that this is a recording of a multi-day seminar Eckhart Tolle conducted where he is actively engaging with the audience and answering their questions on how to apply his principles to their daily lives. I love the way Eckart Tolle puts concep......more
