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.

More quotes by Eckhart Tolle

Image
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
Image
If I cannot live with myself, there must be two of me
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You are not what happens in your life. You are the space in which it happens, which is consciousness itself.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You are the light of the world. You are the consciousness that illuminates the world. Know yourself as that, and that's freedom, liberation, awakening, the end of suffering and madness. And it's happening right here.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The energy that flows into what you do, although it may be high energy, is very peaceful energy. It is not out of alignment with life.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you complain, you make yourself a victim. Leave the situation, change the situation or accept it, all else is madness.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Some of the first human beings in whom the new consciousness emerged fully became the great teachers of humanity, such as Buddha, Lao Tzu, or Jesus, although their teachings were greatly misunderstood, especially when they turned into organized religion. They were the first manifestations of the flowering of human consciousness.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
A self - a me - exists in every thought and every emotion. Suffering arises through complete identification with thinking and emotions.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Give up waiting as a state of mind. When you catch yourself slipping into waiting...snap out of it. Come into the present moment. Just be and enjoy being.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
To experience anything fully and see it clearly there must be a moment of presence where conceptual thinking is not interfering with your experience of that moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
People believe that when they say yes to this moment, things won't change anymore. They're afraid that if they accept what is, whatever form this moment takes, they're going to be stuck forever in this moment that they don't like: this job or relationship or whatever situation they're in that they don't like. But this is not true.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Because we all carry the Truth within us as our essence, we recognize it immediately.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Suffering needs time. It cannot survive in the now.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Instead of fighting the darkness, you bring in the light.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
This is the essence for every human being to realize that who they are, essentially, is far more than the physical body and is far more than the mental body, the psychological makeup, the psychological me body. Who they are is far deeper than that.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
By watching the mechanics of the mind, you step out of its resistance patterns, and you can then allow the present moment to be.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Stress is a form of suffering, but it is accepted as normal. And it is normal in our world.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The more shared past there is in a relationship, the more present you need to be.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
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
Image
Wisdom comes with the ability to be still. Just look and just listen. No more is needed. Being still, looking, and listening activates the non-conceptual intelligence within you. Let stillness direct your words and actions.
Eckhart Tolle
