More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
Surrender comes when you no longer ask, 'Why is this happening to me?'
Eckhart Tolle
All inner resistance is experienced as negativity in one form or another. All negativity is resistance. In this context, the two words are almost synonymous. Negativity ranges from irritation or impatience to fierce anger, from a depressed mood or sullen resentment to suicidal despair. Sometimes the resistance triggers the emotional pain body
Eckhart Tolle
As long as we define ourselves in terms of our pain and our problems, we will never be free from them.
Eckhart Tolle
Some people get attached to their practice. They get good at it, but even becoming a good meditator can become a hindrance.
Eckhart Tolle
For years my life alternated between depression and acute anxiety. One night I woke up in a state of dread and intense fear, more intense than I had ever experienced before. Life seemed meaningless, barren, hostile. It became so unbearable that suddenly the thought came into my mind, I cannot live with myself any longer.
Eckhart Tolle
One conscious breathe in and out is a meditation.
Eckhart Tolle
The power of movies lies in the fact that it enables the viewer to enter the reality, to some extent, of the characters.
Eckhart Tolle
If increased meta-knowledge is not counter-balanced by a corresponding growth in consciousness then the likelihood of psycho-spiritual dysfunction is great.
Eckhart Tolle
Emotion in itself is not unhappiness. Only emotion plus an unhappy story is unhappiness
Eckhart Tolle
The reason why some people love to engage in dangerous activities, such as mountain climbing, car racing, and so on, although they may not be aware of it, is that it forces them into the Now - that intensely alive state that is free of time, free of problems, free of thinking, free of the burden of the personality.
Eckhart Tolle
The ego is just waiting to identify with anything. Whether it's your misery or being a great meditator, it seeks some identification.
Eckhart Tolle
Stress is a form of suffering, but it is accepted as normal. And it is normal in our world.
Eckhart Tolle
Fulfill me, make me happy, make me feel safe, tell me who I am. The world cannot give you those things, and when you no longer have such expectations, all self created suffering comes to an end.
Eckhart Tolle
Please open your eyes now, but keep attention in the inner energy field of the body as you look around the room. The inner body lies at the threshold between your form identity and your essence identity, your true nature. Never lose touch with it.
Eckhart Tolle
The reason why the romantic love relationship is such an intense and universally sought-after experience is that it seems to offer liberation from a deep-seated state of fear, need, lack, and incompleteness that is part of the human condition in its unredeemed and unenlightened state.
Eckhart Tolle
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
The fullness of life is only accessible in the present moment.
Eckhart Tolle
I enjoy going to Starbucks, having a cup of coffee, sitting in my car, driving from here to there, sitting at home looking at the trees, going for a walk with a dog. It's all very enjoyable.
Eckhart Tolle
Loss of meaning is often part of the suffering that comes with physical loss, but it can also happen to people who have gained everything the world has to offer - who have made it in the eyes of the world - and suddenly find that their success or possessions are empty and unfulfilling.
Eckhart Tolle
Many people see themselves as a problem that needs to be solved. They also habitually see the present moment as an obstacle that they need to overcome or get away from. With awareness, an inner sense of spaciousness arises that enables you to look at your own mind, which is to say the human mind, with a certain degree of detachment.
Eckhart Tolle
