There can be associations - enlightened businesses, for example - that do not work on the basis of us against them or wanting profit as the main motivating force behind what they do.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
A belief may be comforting. Only through your own experience, however, does it become liberating.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
If we don't change, if the egoic consciousness continues, I don't believe that humanity as a species can survive, or at least human civilization can survive, for another hundred years.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Just as the sun is infinitely brighter than a candle flame, there is infinitely more intelligence in Being than in your mind
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you recognize that there is a voice in your head that pretends to be you and never stops speaking, you are awakening out of your unconscious identification with the stream of thinking. When you notice that voice, you realize that who you are is not the voice - the thinker - but the one who is aware of it.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When the basis for your actions is inner alignment with the present moment, your actions become empowered by the intelligence of life itself.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
How many situations can be resolved with less thinking?
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Focus your attention on the Now and tell me what problem you have at this moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
I teach that we must go beyond pure ego-consciousness and move to a new manifestation of energy karma force.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The most decisive event in your life is when you discover you are not your thoughts or emotions. Instead, you can be present as the awareness behind the thoughts and emotions.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Every practice at some point will become a hindrance. No practice can ever take you there, to freedom, to liberation. That's important to realize.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
We get lost in doing, thinking, remembering, anticipating - lost in a maze of complexity and a world of problems. Nature can show us the way home, the way out of the prison of our own minds.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Don't seek happiness. If you seek it, you won't find it, because seeking is the antithesis of happiness. Happiness is ever elusive, but freedom from unhappiness is attainable now, by facing what is rather than making up stories about it.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When the pain that the little me creates for itself becomes intense enough, the ego will self-destruct. It has a self-destruct mechanism built in, fortunately, so eventually every ego dies.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Knowing yourself as the awareness behind the voice is freedom.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The Now is as it is because it cannot be otherwise. What Buddhists have always known, physicists now confirm: there are no isolated things or events. Underneath the surface appearance, all things are interconnected, are part of the totality of the cosmos that has brought about the form that this moment takes.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
I am not my thoughts, emotions, sense perceptions, and experiences. I am not the content of my life. I am Life. I am the space in which all things happen. I am consciousness. I am the Now. I Am.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You become most powerful in whatever you do if the action is performed for its own sake rather than as a means to protect, enhance, or conform to your role identity.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The way I feel is that there is a balance in my life between being alone and interacting with people, between Being and doing.
