The predominance of mind is no more than a stage in the evolution of consciousness. We need to go on to the next stage now as a matter of urgency otherwise, we will be destroyed by the mind, which has grown into a monster.

More quotes by 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
You cannot find yourself by going into the past. You can find yourself by coming into the present.
Eckhart Tolle
Hang on to the inner body, let it be the anchor, then you're present. If they say something challenging and you lose it again, pause, and anchor again. Practice, practice, continuous practice-becaus e when you're in touch with the inner body, spaciousness arises.
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
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
We have forgotten what rocks and plants still know - we have forgotten how to be - to be still - to be ourselves - to be where life is here and now
Eckhart Tolle
You can always cope with the present moment, but you cannot cope with something that is only a mind projection - you cannot cope with the future.
Eckhart Tolle
If the price of peace were a lowering of your consciousness, and the price of stillness a lack of vitality and alertness, then they would not be worth having.
Eckhart Tolle
Life has no opposite. The opposite of death is birth. Life is eternal.
Eckhart Tolle
Nothing that you plan is going to work out. Everything is going to be totally different than the way you expected. And things will constantly challenge you. Wherever you look the world is not as solid it seems to be.
Eckhart Tolle
You are never more essentially, more deeply, yourself than when you are still.
Eckhart Tolle
Some groups and individuals still are immersed totally in the egoic consciousness. Others already are free or in the process of stepping out of ego. The arising of the new consciousness already has started for many people. They are not yet recognizable as groups, but they are here and there.
Eckhart Tolle
When you are full of problems, there is no room for anything new to enter, no room for a solution. So whenever you can, make some room, create some space, so that you find the life underneath your life situation.
Eckhart Tolle
Stillness is the only thing in this world that has no form. But then, it is not really a thing, and it is not of this world.
Eckhart Tolle
Once bliss becomes normal it's no longer bliss, it's just peace.
Eckhart Tolle
Complaining is one of the ego's favorite strategies for strengthening itself.
Eckhart Tolle
Evolution usually occurs in response to a crisis situation, and we now are faced with such a crisis situation. This is why there is indeed an enormous acceleration in the awakening process of our species.
Eckhart Tolle
The animals are at a level prior to thinking. They haven't lost themselves in thought. We rise above thinking and then we meet them again, where we're both in no-thought. There's a deep connection.
Eckhart Tolle
There is a fine balance between honoring the past and losing yourself in it.
Eckhart Tolle
Just as dogs love to chew bones, the mind loves to get its teeth into problems. That's why it does crossword puzzles and builds atom bombs.
