To have your attention in the Now is not a denial of what is needed in your life. It is recognition of what is primary.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The outer purpose belongs to the horizontal dimension of space and time the inner purpose concerns a deepening of your Being in the vertical dimension of the timeless Now.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
We are destined not to go back to the level of animals that we've come from but to return to being by going beyond thinking.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
If there are people you haven't forgiven, you're not going to really awaken. You have to let go.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
And whenever you feel that essence in another, you also feel it in yourself.

The little saying, 'Be still and know that I Am God' ... contains the entire wisdom of religion in those few words.

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.

When you can no longer feel the life that you are, you are likely to try to fill up your life with things.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
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
Image
The past has no power over the present moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You might say, 'What a dreadful day', without realizing that the cold, the wind, and the rain or whatever condition you react to are not dreadful. They are as they are. What is dreadful is your reaction, your inner resistance to it, and the emotion that is created by that resistance.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
As soon as you honor the present moment, all unhappiness and struggle dissolve.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
In the face of death, especially violent death, things don't make sense anymore. So death is the dissolution of either physical form or psychological form. And when a form dissolves, always something shines through that had been obscured by the form. This is the formless One Life, the formless One Consciousness.

How many situations can be resolved with less thinking?

Being spiritual has nothing to do with what you believe and everything to do with your state of consciousness.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
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
Image
Your unhappiness ultimately arises not from the circumstances of your life but from the conditioning of your mind.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
We would destroy ourselves and the planet if no change happens, because of the amplification of the egoic state through science and technology.
