More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
Boredom, anger, sadness, or fear are not 'yours,' not personal. They are conditions of the human mind. They come and go. Nothing that comes and goes is you.
Eckhart Tolle
In whatever way change comes, the important thing is to take responsibility for this moment. Then, life becomes cooperative.
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.
Eckhart Tolle
Life is now. There was never a time when your life was not now, nor will there ever be.
Eckhart Tolle
When great loss happens - deaths close to you or your own approaching death - this is an opportunity for stepping completely out of identification with form and realizing the essence of who you are, or that the essence of anyone who is suffering or dying is beyond death.
Eckhart Tolle
Music bypasses the conceptual mind. Music does not give you food for thought.
Eckhart Tolle
There is a fine balance between honoring the past and losing yourself in it. For example, you can acknowledge and learn from mistakes you made, and then move on and refocus on the now. It is called forgiving yourself.
Eckhart Tolle
You are the knowing, not the condition that is known.
Eckhart Tolle
It is not necessary to do things in a state of anxiety or anguish. That is not the way to be aligned with life.
Eckhart Tolle
Bring awareness to the many subtle sounds of nature - The rustling of leaves in the wind, Raindrops falling, The humming of an insect, The first birdsong at dawn.
Eckhart Tolle
The state of presence is the only state in which creative energy is available to you.
Eckhart Tolle
Pain can only feed on pain. Pain cannot feed on joy. It finds it quite indigestible.
Eckhart Tolle
Surrender comes when you no longer ask, 'Why is this happening to me?'
Eckhart Tolle
To love is to recognize yourself in another.
Eckhart Tolle
You can still achieve certain things through effort, struggle, determination, and sheer hard work or cunning. But there is no joy in such endeavor, and it invariably ends in some form of suffering.
Eckhart Tolle
The equivalent of external noise is the inner noise of thinking. The equivalent of external silence is inner stillness.
Eckhart Tolle
To love is to recognize yourself in another. The others otherness then stands revealed as an illusion pertaining to the purely human realm, the realm of form.
Eckhart Tolle
You are not just a meaningless fragment in an alien universe, briefly suspended between life and death, allowed a few short-lived pleasures followed by pain and ultimate annihilation.
Eckhart Tolle
I know that at the core of each religion there is the truth, heavily obscured in some cases, but it's there.
Eckhart Tolle
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.
