Fear seems to have many causes. Fear of loss, fear of failure, fear of being hurt, and so on, but ultimately all fear is the ego's fear of death, of annihilation. To the ego, death is always just around the corner. In this mind-identified state, fear of death affects every aspect of your life.

Only the truth of who you are, if realized, will set you free.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The quicker you are in attaching verbal or mental labels to things, people, or situations, the more shallow and lifeless your reality becomes, and the more deadened you become to reality
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The future is only a thought form. Work with the present moment. Be with what is.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Some people thought I was crazy to have let go of all the worldly things I had achieved. They didn't understand that I didn't want or need any of that anymore.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
If your mind carries a heavy burden of past, you will experience more of the same. The past perpetuates itself through lack of presence. The quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
What could be more futile, more insane, than to create inner resistance to something that already is?
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you lose touch with yourself, you lose yourself in the world.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Present-moment awareness creates a gap not only in the stream of mind but also in the past-future continuum. Nothing truly new and creative can come into this world except through that gap, that clear space of infinite possibility.
