More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
Pick up any history book, and I suggest you begin with studying the 20th century, and you will find that a large part of the history of our species has all the characteristics we would normally associate with a nightmare or an insane hallucination.
Eckhart Tolle
When you are suffering, when you are unhappy, stay totally with what is Now. Unhappiness or problems cannot survive in the Now.
Eckhart Tolle
The reason why some people love to engage in dangerous activities, such as mountain climbing, car racing, and so on, although they may not be aware of it, is that it forces them into the Now - that intensely alive state that is free of time, free of problems, free of thinking, free of the burden of the personality.
Eckhart Tolle
If you are not in the state of either acceptance, enjoyment, or enthusiasm, look closely and you will find that you are creating suffering for yourself and others.
Eckhart Tolle
True salvation is freedom from negativity.
Eckhart Tolle
Our animal friends’ non-reactive and forgiving natures can teach us positive spiritual lessons on a daily basis.
Eckhart Tolle
Go within. Use the inner body as a starting point for going deeper and taking your attention away from where it's usually lodged, in the thinking mind.
Eckhart Tolle
For years my life alternated between depression and acute anxiety. One night I woke up in a state of dread and intense fear, more intense than I had ever experienced before. Life seemed meaningless, barren, hostile. It became so unbearable that suddenly the thought came into my mind, I cannot live with myself any longer.
Eckhart Tolle
Many people identify their sense of self with the problems they have, or think they have.
Eckhart Tolle
Suffering is necessary until you realize it is unnecessary.
Eckhart Tolle
To offer no resistance to life is to be in a state of grace, ease, and lightness.
Eckhart Tolle
True listening is another way of bringing stillness into the relationship. When you truly listen to someone, the dimension of stillness arises and becomes an essential part of the relationship.
Eckhart Tolle
Awareness of the inner body is consciousness remembering its origin and returning to the Source.
Eckhart Tolle
You are never more essentially, more deeply, yourself than when you are still.
Eckhart Tolle
So far for humans it has been the case that ego develops and then humans are stuck with it for the rest of their lives.
Eckhart Tolle
When the pain that the little me creates for itself becomes intense enough, the ego will self-destruct. It has a self-destruct mechanism built in, fortunately, so eventually every ego dies.
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
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
Christ is your God-essence or the Self, as it is sometimes called in the East. The only difference between Christ and presence is that Christ refers to your indwelling divinity regardless of whether you are conscious of it or not, whereas presence means your awakened divinity or God-essence.
Eckhart Tolle
The other person's presence ultimately is the same as your presence, because it is in presence that there is true meeting.
Eckhart Tolle
