Purpose of Existence

Eckhart Tolle touches on the purpose of human existence which he
sees as evolutionary, awakening, to become fully human. He then
answers related questions from a live audience on a wide range of
topics: How much of our lives are within our control? Can we
really plan for the future? How do we deal with the pain-body and
also stay conscious? Eckhart says if we align with the “is-ness”
of the present moment and pay attention to our state of
consciousness, the future will look after itself. It’s only by
embracing the here and now that we have the opportunity to lead
lives with clarity and purpose. We also must learn to accept each
moment as if we had chosen it. Because we did.
