More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
Religion and ritual can be vehicles for entering stillness. It says in Psalm 46:10, 'Be still, and know that I am God.' But they are still just vehicles. The Buddha called his teaching a raft: You don't need to carry it around with you after you've crossed the river.
Eckhart Tolle
Being one with life is being one with Now. You then realize that you don't live your life, but life lives you. Life is the dancer, and you are the dance.
Eckhart Tolle
You create a good future by creating a good present.
Eckhart Tolle
The mind is a superb instrument if used rightly. Used wrongly, however, it becomes very destructive. To put it more accurately... you usually don't use it at all. It uses you.
Eckhart Tolle
You are the Universe expressing itself as a human for a little while.
Eckhart Tolle
Death is the moment of form dissolving. When that dissolving is not resisted, an opening appears into the dimension of the sacred, into the One formless, unmanifested Life. This is why death is such an incredible opportunity. There is no transformation of human consciousness without the dissolving that death brings.
Eckhart Tolle
Life always is now. Life is inseparable from now.
Eckhart Tolle
Even running to catch a train or a taxi, you can enjoy the high energy of the moment.
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
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
Enthusiasm cannot be a continuous state. It comes in waves.
Eckhart Tolle
So far for humans it has been the case that ego develops and then humans are stuck with it for the rest of their lives.
Eckhart Tolle
Life is your deepest inner Being. It is already whole, complete, perfect.
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
Please open your eyes now, but keep attention in the inner energy field of the body as you look around the room. The inner body lies at the threshold between your form identity and your essence identity, your true nature. Never lose touch with it.
Eckhart Tolle
When you know who you truly are, there is an abiding alive sense of peace. You could call it joy because that's what joy is: vibrantly alive peace. It is the joy of knowing yourself as the very life essence before life takes on form. That is the joy of Being - of being who you truly are.
Eckhart Tolle
The joy of Being, which is the only true happiness, cannot come to you through any form, possession, achievement, person, or event - through anything that happens. That joy cannot come to you - ever. It emanates from the formless dimension within you, from consciousness itself and thus is one with who you are.
Eckhart Tolle
To offer no resistance to life is to be in a state of grace, ease, and lightness. This state is then no longer dependent upon things being in a certain way, good or bad. It seems almost paradoxical, yet when your inner dependency on form is gone, the general conditions of your life, the outer forms, tend to improve greatly.
Eckhart Tolle
The power is in you. The answer is in you. And you are the answer to all your searches: you are the goal. You are the answer. It's never outside.
Eckhart Tolle
When each thought absorbs your attention completely, it means you identify with the voice in your head. Thought then becomes invested with a sense of self. This is the ego, a mind-made me. That mentally constructed self feels incomplete and precarious. That's why fearing and wanting are its predominant emotions and motivating forces.
