Comments on: Saturday Night Live, from Marin County, CA . . . It’s ECKHART TOLLE! http://www.soulscode.com/saturday-night-live-from-marin-county-ca-its-eckhart-tolle/ Everyone's a Guru Fri, 27 Jan 2012 06:39:06 +0000 hourly 1 By: David Rickey http://www.soulscode.com/saturday-night-live-from-marin-county-ca-its-eckhart-tolle/comment-page-1/#comment-39019 David Rickey Wed, 24 Sep 2008 11:01:37 +0000 http://www.soulscode.com/?p=430#comment-39019 The truth of Eckhart Tolle's teaching can't be measured by his apparent "Rock Star" status, but rather by the experience of those who practice his teaching and find truth emerging from within themselves. We are told that Jesus gathered crowds around him too, only to be crucified. There IS a great spiritual hunger. My hope is that more and more people will try the practice, shift the ego out of dominance and let awareness emerge. Apparently, Tolle confounds even his publishers when he withdraws to do the inner work to stay balanced against the "pull" of "Fans". Just like Jesus kept trying to get away from the crowds "to pray in a lonely place by himself". If Tolle were ever to do SNL it would only be (I would suspect) to get the teaching out. I can't imagine him being one whit concerned about the ratings. I wonder how the traffic leaving the Marin County appearance flowed. That would be the test, not of his teaching but of how many "Got it".
