You can have religion with spirituality. You can also have religion without spirituality.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The future is usually imagined as either better or worse than the present. If the imagined future is better, it gives you hope or pleasurable anticipation. If it is worse, it creates anxiety. Both are illusory.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
One way to become aware many times during the day is to take a conscious breath. Doing so breaks the stream of thinking.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You don't 'have' a life, you 'are' life. The One Life, the one consciousness that pervades the entire universe and takes temporary form to experience itself as a stone or blade of grass, as an animal, a person, a star or a galaxy.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
If the thought of lack -whether it be money, recognition, or love has become part of who you think you are, you will always experience lack. Rather than acknowledge the good that is already in your life, all you see is lack.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
This, too, will pass.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You are awareness, disguised as a person.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Even within the seemingly most unacceptable and painful situation is concealed a deeper good, and within every disaster is contained the seed of grace.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you awaken spiritually, in fact, you can use thought much more effectively than before, but you realize there is a depth to your Being, a vibrantly alive stillness that is much vaster than thought. It is consciousness itself, of which the thinking mind is only a tiny aspect.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Reading is my passion and my escape since I was 5 years old. Overall, children don't realize the magic that can live inside their own heads. Better even then any movie.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The intensity of the pain depends on the degree of resistance to the present moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Always work with the present moment, not against it. Make it your friend and ally, not your enemy. This will miraculously transform your whole life.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Focus your attention on the Now and tell me what problem you have at this moment.
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 power of movies lies in the fact that it enables the viewer to enter the reality, to some extent, of the characters.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
In certain extreme cases, medication may be necessary. But it is given far too often, too easily, and too readily. Millions of children already are on tranquilizers, for example, and that is absurd.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The pollution of the planet is only an outward reflection of an inner psychic pollution: millions of unconscious individuals not taking responsibility for their inner space.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Knowing yourself as the awareness behind the voice is freedom.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You cannot find yourself by going into the past. You can find yourself by coming into the present.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Negative states of mind, such as anger, resentment, fear, envy, and jealousy, are products of the ego.
