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.

More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
Can you look without the voice in your head commenting, drawing conclusions, comparing, or trying to figure something out?
Eckhart Tolle
You are the love and joy beneath the pain.
Eckhart Tolle
The 'soul' is one of the words you can use to talk about your innermost being, the essence of who you are.
Eckhart Tolle
Underneath the world of sense perceptions and the world of mind activity, there is the vastness of being. There's a vast spaciousness. There's a vast stillness and there's a little ripple activity on the surface, which isn't separate, just like the ripples are not separate from the ocean.
Eckhart Tolle
Consciousness is a vast ocean and thinking is the waves & ripples on the surface of the ocean.
Eckhart Tolle
The significance is hiding in the insignificant. Appreciate everything.
Eckhart Tolle
Life is your deepest inner Being. It is already whole, complete, perfect.
Eckhart Tolle
Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness. How do you know this is the experience you need? Because this is the experience you are having at the moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Be the silent watcher of your thoughts and behavior. You are beneath the thinker. You are the stillness beneath the mental noise. You are the love and joy beneath the pain.
Eckhart Tolle
On the new Earth, as the awakened consciousness comes in, I would say the ego would develop in children and quickly become outgrown when they reach adulthood.
Eckhart Tolle
Forget about your life situation and pay attention to your life. Your life situation exists in time. Your life is now. Your life situation is mind-stuff. Your life is real. Instead of asking 'what do I want from life?,' a more powerful question is, 'what does life want from me?'
Eckhart Tolle
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
Enlightenment means rising above thought, not falling back to a level below thought, the level of an animal or a plant. In the enlightened state, you still use your thinking mind when needed, but in a much more focused and effective way than before.
Eckhart Tolle
A practice can be helpful, but didn't the Buddha compare it to a raft, suggesting it be abandoned when you reach the other shore?
Eckhart Tolle
True freedom is living as if you had completely chosen whatever you feel or experience in this moment. This inner alignment with the Now is the end of suffering.
Eckhart Tolle
◦At the deepest level of Being, you are one with all that is
Eckhart Tolle
Things and conditions can give you pleasure but they cannot give you joy- joy arises from within.
Eckhart Tolle
Whenever you meet anybody, it is a holy encounter. The primary event is the energy field of presence between you and the other human being that arises. You enjoy it. There is deep joy in the meeting.
Eckhart Tolle
Joy is uncaused and arises from within as the joy of Being. It is an essential part of the inner state of peace, the state that has been called the peace of God. It is your natural state, not something that you need to work hard for or struggle to attain.
Eckhart Tolle
Music bypasses the conceptual mind. Music does not give you food for thought.
Eckhart Tolle
