The atoms that make up your body were once forged inside stars, and the causes of even the smallest event are virtually infinite and connected with the whole in incomprehensible ways.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
We could say that the totality, life wants the sapling to become a tree, but the sapling doesn't see itself as separate from life and so wants nothing for itself. It is one with what life wants. That's why it isn't worried or stressed. And, if it has to die prematurely, it dies with ease.
Eckhart Tolle

Create a gap of no-mind in which you are highly alert and aware but not thinking. This is the essence of meditation.
Eckhart Tolle

For the ego to survive, it must make time - past and future - more important than the present moment.
Eckhart Tolle

Whatever is arising in this moment, whatever condition, is part of the isness of life and therefore accepting it fully makes you an expression of the enormous power of life itself-true intelligence, which only comes when you stop obstructing the power of the present moment.
Eckhart Tolle

As you become present and thereby total in what you do, your actions become charged with spiritual power.

The more you are focused on time-past and future-the more you miss the Now, the most precious thing there is.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The most rigid structures, the most impervious to change, will collapse first.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Observe your thoughts, don't believe them.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Space and silence are two aspects of the same thing. The same no-thing. They are externalization of inner space and inner silence, which is stillness: the infinitely creative womb of all existence.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
...the past gives you an identity and the future holds the promise of salvation, of fulfillment in whaterver form. Both are illusions.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Stillness is your essential nature.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Humanity had to go through egoic madness and then outgrow it.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Ask yourself what problem you have right now. Not next year, tomorrow or five minutes from now. You can always cope with the now, but you can never cope with the future. Nor do you have to. The answer, the strength and the right action will be there when you need it. Not before or after.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Pain can only feed on pain. Pain cannot feed on joy. It finds it quite indigestible.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Some people are stuck in tedious things, like their jobs, and they are bored. Other people experience one stressful thing after another.
