Is fear preventing you from taking action? Acknowledge the fear, watch it, take your attention into it, be fully present with it. Doing so cuts the link between the fear and your thinking. Don't let the fear rise up into your mind. Use the power of the Now. Fear cannot prevail against it.

People don't realize that now is all there ever is there is no past or future except as memory or anticipation in your mind.

Words reduce reality to something the human mind can grasp, which isn’t very much.
Eckhart Tolle

In the face of death, especially violent death, things don't make sense anymore. So death is the dissolution of either physical form or psychological form. And when a form dissolves, always something shines through that had been obscured by the form. This is the formless One Life, the formless One Consciousness.

The problems that we are facing are multiplying on the planet - economic, environmental, social, political upheaval, the list goes on. It's a time of change and transition and, as I see it, we are entering a new state of consciousness. It's a transition between one state of consciousness and another. It's an evolutionary leap that is happening.

When this delusion of utter separateness underlies and governs whatever I think, say, and do, what kind of world do I create?

We can learn not to keep situations or events alive in our minds, but to return our attention continuously to the pristine, timeless present moment rather than be caught up in mental movie making.
Eckhart Tolle

The present moment is all you ever have.
Eckhart Tolle

The goal has its importance. But the doing is what is truly fulfilling. Every enthusiastic person has a goal that may be important, but the doing is intensely fulfilling, and it is the essence of enthusiasm.

The pollution of the planet is only an outward reflection of an inner psychic pollution: millions of unconscious individuals not taking responsibility for their inner space.

The more you make your thoughts and beliefs into your identity, the more cut off you are from the spiritual dimension within yourself.

The thing that gives you power also traps you.

The most powerful state for a human to be in is the state of embracing completely the reality of what is - Now. It is to say Yes to life, which is now and always now. There is a vast power in that Yes, that state of inner non-resistance to what is.

Humanity is reaching the end of the evolutionary stage of ego. The closer we get to the end, the more dysfunctional humanity becomes.

Just watching an animal closely can take you out of your mind and bring you into the present moment, which is where the animal lives all the time - surrendered to life.
