You cannot fight against the ego and win, just as you cannot fight against darkness. The light of consciousness is all that is necessary. You are that light.

More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
People look to the future for salvation, but the future never arrives.
Eckhart Tolle
Life is your deepest inner Being. It is already whole, complete, perfect.
Eckhart Tolle
Give up defining yourself - to yourself or to others. You won't die. You will come to life.
Eckhart Tolle
Germany is a nation that created an enormous amount of suffering on the planet. The German people also themselves have suffered, because it always goes together.
Eckhart Tolle
The joy of Being, which is the only true happiness, cannot come to you through any form, possession, achievement, person, or event - through anything that happens. That joy cannot come to you - ever. It emanates from the formless dimension within you, from consciousness itself and thus is one with who you are.
Eckhart Tolle
The intensity of the pain depends on the degree of resistance to the present moment.
Eckhart Tolle
When you lose touch with yourself, you lose yourself in the 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
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
Not all thinking and all emotion are of the ego. They turn into ego only when you identify with them and they take you over completely, that is to say, when they become I.
Eckhart Tolle
You can not have an argument with a fully conscious person.
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
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.
Eckhart Tolle
You create a good future by creating a good present.
Eckhart Tolle
If you are in a state of intense presence you are free of thought, yet highly alert. If your conscious attention sinks below a certain level, thought rushes in, the mental noise returns, stillness is lost, you're back in time.
Eckhart Tolle
The present moment is all you ever have.
Eckhart Tolle
When you complain, you make yourself a victim. Leave the situation, change the situation or accept it, all else is madness.
Eckhart Tolle
With stillness comes the benediction of Peace.
Eckhart Tolle
The little saying, 'Be still and know that I Am God' ... contains the entire wisdom of religion in those few words.
Eckhart Tolle
Discontent, blaming, complaining, self-pity cannot serve as a foundation for a good future, no matter how much effort you make.
