I mentioned to Datre, or John, that I would like to read something that would knock my socks off - I hadn't read all of the transcripts at that time.
I didn't realize, reading about it isn't going to do it, you have to be able to apply it in your life.
What Datre states about the NOW, the present moment, is very similar to what Eckhart Tolle is pointing out, although perhaps with a slightly different angle.
An excerpt from
http://datretranscripts.blogspot.com/2012/12/datre205-nov-2002.html
..."Now, what happens when you get to the point that you don't remember backwards
and just go forward? It becomes an entirely different world because you do
not search out backward to find a similar situation. When you don't do that,
every situation you put in front of yourself with the pictures that you're
painting become New.
Then your actions become entirely different. You're not relating to anything
backward, you have nothing to relate to. So you take every experience as
being brand new.
You can't imagine living that way because there are so few that do that.
But, in living that way, you actually gain the freedom you so desire. Then
do you know what happens? There are individuals that begin to do that and
they pull back because they are afraid.
You have no idea of the feeling that comes when you begin to experience from
a NOW standpoint. It is a feeling of aloneness, of being alone. And that
is what the physical construct will reject. Unless you have properly taught
it and said, I will take you by the hand and we will go together. And you
have convinced the body that you will always be there so that it need not
be afraid.
You do not understand the depth of the words that I am giving you. But I
have told you time and time again, that I will give you information that
you are unfamiliar with, for you to experience.
Someone said, When are you going to give us something to knock our socks
off? If you want to knock your socks off, then begin to live in what you
presently call the NOW.
When you have an experience – stop. Don't reach into the past. Stop
and act on that experience as of the moment. Don't “ponder it or think
about it or anything else”. Take a look at the situation – make
a decision – and do it.
That is the beginning of knocking your socks off. Because, when you live
in that which you call the NOW, your whole life is so entirely different
you will not recognize it - guaranteed. Continue."...

The "Good for Nothing" man
In one of the posts on the Datre-blog I have, John S. writes about a conversation with one of those in Datre. John tells:
..."His remark was, "but you see, I am 'nothing' yet I do what I do
because it is what I do". He went on to say, "the Entity is the same, it is
'nothing'". These remarks brought back a flood of understanding that I had
forgotten, 'we are ALL nothing' (no-thing) but we in the 'physical' construct
have a very DEEP fear of being 'nothing'."...

This is the same as Robert Adams insist on - when talking about a phone call from his brother, Roberts brother asks him 'Are you still nothing?', and he says 'I am nothing, thank you'.
To be able to let go of it all, the whole world, the body and the mind. Some would say he's lost his mind, which would be pretty much accurate. Ironically that's considered an insult, to lose your mind, and to be nothing.
I think this is what happened to Hylas, he discovered the spirit of water and was lost for this world, meaning it didn't matter to him.
What does it matter if you lose your mind and becomes nothing, if you gain your real Self?
