More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
Inner resistance to whatever arises in the present moment pulls you back into unconsciousness. Inner resistance is some form of negativity, complaining, fear, aggression, or anger. This is important because whenever you complain about what somebody else does you're already beginning to fall into that trap of unconsciousness.
Eckhart Tolle
This, too, will pass.
Eckhart Tolle
Your outer journey may contain a million steps your inner journey only has one: the step you are taking right now.
Eckhart Tolle
I was deeply identified with a very unhappy, egoic entity I believed was me. For years I lived in depression and continuous anxiety. One night I couldn't stand it anymore. The thought came into my mind, I cannot live with myself any longer.
Eckhart Tolle
People believe that when they say yes to this moment, things won't change anymore. They're afraid that if they accept what is, whatever form this moment takes, they're going to be stuck forever in this moment that they don't like: this job or relationship or whatever situation they're in that they don't like. But this is not true.
Eckhart Tolle
This is the essence for every human being to realize that who they are, essentially, is far more than the physical body and is far more than the mental body, the psychological makeup, the psychological me body. Who they are is far deeper than that.
Eckhart Tolle
Because we all carry the Truth within us as our essence, we recognize it immediately.
Eckhart Tolle
Peace comes from being aligned with the present moment. Wherever you are, you feel that you are home—because you are home.
Eckhart Tolle
People are amazed to realize they can enjoy the moment rather than be stressed by it when hurrying to an appointment. You can enjoy the energy movement of the moment when you do not have a mental projection of a future moment you need to get to. You still know that you need to get there, but it is the secondary consideration.
Eckhart Tolle
True happiness is found in simple, seemingly unremarkable things.
Eckhart Tolle
To offer no resistance to life is to be in a state of grace, ease, and lightness.
Eckhart Tolle
Discontent, blaming, complaining, self-pity cannot serve as a foundation for a good future, no matter how much effort you make.
Eckhart Tolle
You can have religion with spirituality. You can also have religion without spirituality.
Eckhart Tolle
The most important healing - realizing who you are. The healing on the outer level is fine, but it's not the essence of healing.
Eckhart Tolle
When there is spiritual awakening, you awaken into the fullness, the aliveness, and also the sacredness of now. You were absent, asleep, and now you are present, awake.
Eckhart Tolle
It's interesting that stepping out of thought was actually triggered by a thought.
Eckhart Tolle
Give up defining yourself - to yourself or to others. You won't die. You will come to life.
Eckhart Tolle
Music is a wonderful way of getting in touch with the stillness within.
Eckhart Tolle
The outer form is a temporary reflection of what you are within, in your essence. That is why love and beauty can never leave you, although all outer forms will.
Eckhart Tolle
Life has no opposite. The opposite of death is birth. Life is eternal.
