This is a YouTube video titled "Welcoming Life - Australia Retreat Part 5" containing a spiritual talk by Eckhart Tolle recorded in February 2016. In this segment, Eckhart Tolle discusses the importance of being present in the current moment and accepting one's current situation as the foundation for empowerment and clarity in life.
Your main goal is in your relationships, in your work situation, in your home situation. Your main goal is being present wherever you are, in whatever you do. Then your life becomes empowered and you will do a lot of good. Without necessarily feeling that I am doing flows through you and those of you who are still looking for something to do. The question often people ask me, what am I meant to do? Where am I meant to be? Who am I meant to be with? And of course, the first answer is the foundation for it all. To find out where you are meant to be, what you are meant to do, who you are meant to be with. The first is you're meant to be here. You're meant to be doing what you're doing right now, and you're meant to be with whoever you are with right now at this moment. That's foundation. I'm not talking about for the rest of your life, but right now you come to a full acceptance of whatever is in the present moment. Now, most people who are trying to figure out what they're supposed to do in their lives, they don't give their fullest attention and they're not fully aligned with the present moment where they are who they are with. They are rejecting it in some way. And that obstructs the power and obstructs the arising of presence. So you become accepting and comfortable with where you are right now. So you're meant to be here right now. That's why I'm meant to be here, Sam.
