Quote

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.

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
Some people are stuck in tedious things, like their jobs, and they are bored. Other people experience one stressful thing after another.
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
The 'soul' is one of the words you can use to talk about your innermost being, the essence of who you are.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Most people's lives are run by desire and fear. Desire is the need to add something to yourself in order to be yourself more fully. All fear is the fear of losing something and thereby becoming diminished and being less. These two movements obscure the fact that Being cannot be given or taken away. Being in its fullness is already within you, Now.

For the ego to survive, it must make time - past and future - more important than the present moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
What is God? The eternal one life underneath all the forms of life. What is love? To feel the presence of the one life deep within yourself and all creatures to be it! Therefore, all love is the love of God.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
As soon as you honor the present moment, all unhappiness and struggle dissolve.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Allow your dog to take you for a walk every day. It's good for the body and it's good for the soul.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
At the height of creative activity fueled by enthusiasm, there will be enormous intensity and energy behind what you do. You will feel like an arrow that is moving toward the target-and enjoying the journey.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
If you are not in the state of either acceptance, enjoyment, or enthusiasm, look closely and you will find that you are creating suffering for yourself and others.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
I have spoken to many people who have begun to live in presence, and they find many changes come into their lives. Sometimes these changes happen as inner realizations - This is what I have to do - or they arise from the external when something suddenly happens.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Every challenge takes you a little deeper and awakens you again and again. Without the challenges, you probably would go to back to sleep. The challenges keep you awake.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
If the individuals who make up a group have personal egos, and their identities lie in these egos, then their egoic identities will shift to the group. It might look as if they are losing their personal egos, but the ego simply shifts to the group.
