Give yourself completely to the act of listening. Beyond the sounds there is something greater, a sacredness that cannot be understood through thought.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Always work with the present moment, not against it. Make it your friend and ally, not your enemy. This will miraculously transform your whole life.

Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you get into your car, shut the door and be there for just half a minute. Breathe, feel the energy inside your body, look around at the sky, the trees. The mind might tell you, 'I don't have time.' But that's the mind talking to you. Even the busiest person has time for 30 seconds of space.
Eckhart Tolle

If you completely accept something, it changes. If you completely accept it, it shifts.
Eckhart Tolle

You are never more essentially, more deeply, yourself than when you are still.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Your inner purpose is an essential part of the purpose of the whole, the universe and its emerging intelligence. Your outer purpose can change over time. It varies greatly from person to person. Finding and living in alignment with the inner purpose is the foundation for fulfilling your outer purpose. It is the basis for true success.

If you don't mind being unhappy, what happens to the unhappiness?
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Underneath the world of sense perceptions and the world of mind activity, there is the vastness of being. There's a vast spaciousness. There's a vast stillness and there's a little ripple activity on the surface, which isn't separate, just like the ripples are not separate from the ocean.
Eckhart Tolle

The future never comes. Life is always now.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you can no longer feel the life that you are, you are likely to try to fill up your life with things.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Life always is now. Life is inseparable from now.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you live as a friend of the now, many changes come into your life.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
A significant portion of the earth's population will soon recognize, if they haven't already done so, that humanity is now faced with a stark choice: Evolve or die.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The vital function that pets fulfill in this world hasn't been fully recognized. They keep millions of people sane.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Your true evolution is not what you do out there. That's secondary. Your true evolution is to do with the arising of awareness in you as you go about your life.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Even if you achieve your outer purpose, it will never satisfy you if you haven't found your inner purpose, which is awakening, being present, being in alignment with life. True power comes out of the presence it is the presence.
Eckhart Tolle
