Many people in this world are still so identified with every thought that arises in their head. There is not the slightest space of awareness there.

More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
I don't believe in an outside agent that creates the world, then walks away. But I feel very strongly there is an intelligence at work in every flower, in every blade of grass, in every cell of my body. And it is that intelligence that, I wouldn't say created the universe. It is creating the universe. It's an ongoing process.
Eckhart Tolle
Some people get attached to their practice. They get good at it, but even becoming a good meditator can become a hindrance.
Eckhart Tolle
Accept the present moment and find the perfection that is deeper than any form and untouched by time.
Eckhart Tolle
If you are in a state of intense presence you are free of thought, yet highly alert. If your conscious attention sinks below a certain level, thought rushes in, the mental noise returns, stillness is lost, you're back in time.
Eckhart Tolle
What you encounter at your destination once you get there depends on the quality of this one step. Another way of putting it: What the future holds for you depends on your state of consciousness now.
Eckhart Tolle
You can only lose something that you have, but you cannot lose something that you are.
Eckhart Tolle
With stillness comes the benediction of Peace.
Eckhart Tolle
Nothing that was real ever died, only names, forms, and illusions.
Eckhart Tolle
In the world of form, everything changes and evolves. So, there was a certain evolution of the teaching. Different pointers came in, different stories, different approaches to the truth, which always is the same.
Eckhart Tolle
The ego is a false sense based on mental concepts. It is identification with the body and the mind-primarily identification with thought form.
Eckhart Tolle
When you lose touch with yourself, you lose yourself in the world.
Eckhart Tolle
I have spoken to many people who have begun to live in presence, and they find many changes come into their lives. Sometimes these changes happen as inner realizations - This is what I have to do - or they arise from the external when something suddenly happens.
Eckhart Tolle
To know yourself as the Being underneath the thinker, the stillness underneath the mental noise, the love and joy underneath the pain, is freedom, salvation, enlightenment.
Eckhart Tolle
The most decisive event in your life is when you discover you are not your thoughts or emotions. Instead, you can be present as the awareness behind the thoughts and emotions.
Eckhart Tolle
A built-in reminder is the simple understanding that whenever any kind of unhappiness arises, you know you've lost the now. That's a built-in alarm clock. The moment you realize you've lost the now, come back to the now.
Eckhart Tolle
You take a journey into the Unmanifested every night when you enter the phase of deep dreamless sleep. You merge with the Source. You draw from it the vital energy that sustains you for a while when you return to the manifested, the world of separate forms.
Eckhart Tolle
You find peace not by rearranging the circumstances of your life, but by realizing who you are at the deepest level.
Eckhart Tolle
For what you do to others, you do to yourself.
Eckhart Tolle
The habit patterns of the human mind are very strong and make it seem that the hard way is easy and the easy way is hard.
Eckhart Tolle
When you get into your car, shut the door and be there for just half a minute. Breathe, feel the energy inside your body, look around at the sky, the trees. The mind might tell you, 'I don't have time.' But that's the mind talking to you. Even the busiest person has time for 30 seconds of space.
Eckhart Tolle
