| 0:00.0 | Hello to all you podcast listeners. We're bringing you something really special. |
| 0:05.1 | One of the great spiritual thinkers of our time, Eckhart Toley and I, are giving you a chapter by |
| 0:10.7 | chapter class on what I believe is his groundbreaking masterpiece. Eckhart's best-selling book, |
| 0:17.1 | A New Earth, Awakening to Your Life's Purpose. This book resonated with me in such a profound way. |
| 0:25.4 | I truly think that it's the most important book I've ever read. |
| 0:30.0 | It's changed the way I live my life so much so that I always have a copy on my nightstand, |
| 0:35.6 | because I constantly give myself a refresher course. And now more than ever we need to create |
| 0:40.8 | what Eckhart calls a new earth, inside our personal lives, in our communities, and the world. |
| 0:48.1 | Give it a listen, and over 10 episodes, you too will be opened up and learn how to quiet your mind, |
| 0:56.0 | get your ego in check, live a fully more present life. We're talking deep, big picture, |

| 1:08.3 | Eckhart's quiet wisdom and patient teachings will resonate with you as they have with me. |

| 1:31.1 | and join us for a thrilling enlightening and spiritual experience. |
| 1:38.0 | Hi everybody. Today we start chapter two. We're taking on the biggest thing ever, the ego. |
| 1:46.6 | Now for so many of us, Eckhart Tolle redefined the word ego, because before Eckhart I knew it as a way |
| 1:54.2 | to describe someone who was really kind of full of themselves, you know, like so and so it has a |
| 1:58.7 | really big ego. Well that is what the ego is, but as you're learning if you're reading this book, |
| 2:05.0 | it is also so much more. According to Eckhart, it's the part of us that causes all of the friction |
| 2:13.7 | and the pain and the suffering in our lives. It's the part that holds on to all of that painful |
