Ask yourself: Is there joy, ease and lightness in what i'm doing? If there isn't then time is covering up the present moment, and life is perceived as a burden or a struggle.

More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
The energy that flows into what you do, although it may be high energy, is very peaceful energy. It is not out of alignment with life.
Eckhart Tolle
So love is the recognition of oneness in a world of duality. This is the birth of God into the world of form. Love makes the world less worldly, less dense, more transparent to the divine dimension, the light of consciousness itself.
Eckhart Tolle
The place that I love most is the stillness. It's not that the stillness is lost when I talk or when I teach because the words arise out of the stillness. But when people leave me, there is only the stillness left. And I love that so much.
Eckhart Tolle
You are the Universe expressing itself as a human for a little while.
Eckhart Tolle
You are the sky. The clouds are what happens, what comes and goes.
Eckhart Tolle
It's a wonderful thing to perceive the world and to interact with it and with other people and nature from that deep place of utter stillness, where the compulsion to immediately label and interpret whatever arises around you is no longer there.
Eckhart Tolle
Spiritual Awakening is awakening from the dream of thought.
Eckhart Tolle
Stress is a form of suffering, but it is accepted as normal. And it is normal in our world.
Eckhart Tolle
The significance is hiding in the insignificant. Appreciate everything.
Eckhart Tolle
Only if you resist what happens are you at the mercy of what happens, and the world will determine your happiness and unhappiness
Eckhart Tolle
Why is old considered useless? Because in old age, the emphasis shifts from doing to Being, and our civilization, which is lost in doing, knows nothing of Being. It asks: Being? What do you do with it?
Eckhart Tolle
When you are not making the present moment into a means to an end, you also are not making every human being you meet - in your business and even at home, in your family - into a means to an end.
Eckhart Tolle
The false self lives mainly through memory and anticipation. Past and future are its main preoccupation.
Eckhart Tolle
You can be effective in this world without stress.
Eckhart Tolle
Enthusiasm is when the universe creates through you. You are involved in a creative act. You are bringing something new into this world. When that energy comes in, you feel an intense aliveness that flows into what you do. That is enthusiasm.
Eckhart Tolle
The whole essence of Zen consists in walking along the razor's edge of Now - to be so utterly, so completely present that no problem, no suffering, nothing that is not who you are in your essence, can survive in you. In the Now, in the absence of time, all your problems dissolve. Suffering needs time it cannot survive in the Now.
Eckhart Tolle
Wisdom comes with the ability to be still. Just look and just listen. No more is needed. Being still, looking, and listening activates the non-conceptual intelligence within you. Let stillness direct your words and actions.
Eckhart Tolle
Through forgiveness, which essentially means recognizing the insubstantiality of the past and allowing the present moment to be as it is, the miracle of transformation happens not only within but also without.
Eckhart Tolle
Man Made 'God' in his own image. The eternal, the infinate, the unnameable was reduced to a mental idol that you had to believe in and worship as 'my god' or 'our god'.
Eckhart Tolle
The mind left to itself creates monstrosities, and not only in art galleries. Look at our urban landscapes and industrial wastelands. No civilization has ever produced so much ugliness.
Eckhart Tolle
