Those who have not found their true wealth, which is the radiant joy of Being and the deep, unshakable peace that comes with it, are beggars, even if they have great material wealth.

More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
One way of pointing to this realization is, when you think you have big problems, ask yourself, What problem do I have at this moment? Usually, you will find that you don't have a problem at this moment because you're sitting here and you're breathing, you're looking out the window, and it's fine.
Eckhart Tolle
I don't pray for anything, but I have used affirmations in the past a few times. They are really a bit more like realizations in that on some level they have already happened.
Eckhart Tolle
When you are present, when your attention is fully and intensely in the Now, Being can be felt, but it can never be understood mentally.
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
To me the ego is the habitual and compulsive thought processes that go through everybody's mind continuously. External things like possessions or memories or failures or successes or achievements. Your personal history.
Eckhart Tolle
Being is central, and Being is now. The fulfillment of your life is not going to happen through anything. The outer activities in your life are secondary. What is Primary is Being.
Eckhart Tolle
When your fulfillment and sense of self are no longer dependent on the future outcome, joy flows into whatever you do. You do what you do because the action itself is fulfilling. Whatever you do or create in that state is of high quality. This is because it is not a means to an end, and so a loving care flows into your doing.
Eckhart Tolle
We are a species that has lost its way. Everything natural, every flower or tree, and every animal have important lessons to teach us if we would only stop, look, and listen.
Eckhart Tolle
Suffering begins when you mentally label a situation as bad. That causes an emotional contraction. When you let it be, without naming it, enormous power is available to you. The contraction cuts you off from that power, the power of life itself.
Eckhart Tolle
Be aware of your breathing. Notice how this takes attention away from your thinking and creates space.
Eckhart Tolle
You can have religion with spirituality. You can also have religion without spirituality.
Eckhart Tolle
Just as the sun is infinitely brighter than a candle flame, there is infinitely more intelligence in Being than in your mind
Eckhart Tolle
Let go of thought, become still and alert, and don't try to understand or explain.
Eckhart Tolle
As the character changes in the movie, it rubs off on the viewer, so the viewer also goes through that change.
Eckhart Tolle
For the ego to survive, it must make time - past and future - more important than the present moment.
Eckhart Tolle
What a liberation to realize that the 'voice in my head' is not who I am. 'Who am I, then?' The one who sees that.
Eckhart Tolle
Be at least as interested in what goes on inside you as what happens outside. If you get the inside right, the outside will fall into place.
Eckhart Tolle
Become conscious of being conscious.
Eckhart Tolle
Be aware of your breathing as often as you are able, whenever you remember. Do that for one year, and it will be powerfully transformative. And it's free.
Eckhart Tolle
A group needs enemies, because without enemies its identity cannot continue to be defined.
