I'm grateful for always this moment, the now, no matter what form it takes.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
True happiness is found in simple, seemingly unremarkable things.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
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
Image
You are never more essentially, more deeply, yourself than when you are still.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The power of now can only be realized now. It requires no time and effort. Effort means you're trying hard to get somewhere, and so you are not present, welcoming this moment as it is.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
True salvation is freedom from negativity.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you lose touch with yourself, you lose yourself in the world.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
With awareness there comes choice. And so you are able to say: I allow this moment to be as it is. And then, suddenly, where before there was irritation, there is now a sense of aliveness and peace. And out of that comes right action.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Be aware that what you think, to a large extent, creates the emotions that you feel. See the link between your thinking and your emotions. Rather than being your thoughts and emotions, be the awareness behind them.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
If the price of peace were a lowering of your consciousness, and the price of stillness a lack of vitality and alertness, then they would not be worth having.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Things and conditions can give you pleasure but they cannot give you joy- joy arises from within.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When each thought absorbs your attention completely, it means you identify with the voice in your head. Thought then becomes invested with a sense of self. This is the ego, a mind-made me. That mentally constructed self feels incomplete and precarious. That's why fearing and wanting are its predominant emotions and motivating forces.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Now if a teacher gives you a practice, he or she would perhaps point out when you don't need it anymore or you realize yourself when you don't need it anymore.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Let go of thought, become still and alert, and don't try to understand or explain.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The teaching arises out of the stillness. But when I'm alone, there's only the stillness, and that is my favorite place.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When the movie comes to an end, you are not totally the same person you are when you started the movie.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you say, 'I enjoy doing this or that', it is really a misperception. It makes it appear that the joy comes from what you do, but that is not the case. Joy does not come from what you do, it flows into what you do and thus into this world from deep within you.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Instead of asking, “what do I want from life?,” a more powerful question is, “what does life want from me?
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Peace comes from being aligned with the present moment. Wherever you are, you feel that you are home—because you are home.

Awareness and ego cannot coexist.
