More quotes by 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
A practice can be helpful, but didn't the Buddha compare it to a raft, suggesting it be abandoned when you reach the other shore?
Eckhart Tolle
I don't pray for anything, but I have used affirmations in the past a few times. They are really a bit more like realizations in that on some level they have already happened.
Eckhart Tolle
Every spiritual teaching points to the possibility of the end of suffering - Now. It is true that most teachers have had to go through the Dark Night of the Soul, although for one or two it was very, very quick.
Eckhart Tolle
Every challenge is a disguised opportunity for salvation.
Eckhart Tolle
When you want to arrive at your goal more than you want to be doing what you are doing, you become stressed.
Eckhart Tolle
The basis for true change is freedom from negativity. And that's what acceptance implies: no negativity about what is. And then you see what this moment requires: what is it that is required now so that life can express itself more fully?
Eckhart Tolle
If the individuals who make up a group have personal egos, and their identities lie in these egos, then their egoic identities will shift to the group. It might look as if they are losing their personal egos, but the ego simply shifts to the group.
Eckhart Tolle
Suppression of the feminine principal has enabled The Ego to gain absolute supremacy in the collective human psyche
Eckhart Tolle
When you know who you truly are, there is an abiding alive sense of peace. You could call it joy because that's what joy is: vibrantly alive peace. It is the joy of knowing yourself as the very life essence before life takes on form. That is the joy of Being - of being who you truly are.
Eckhart Tolle
Thinking is no more than a tiny aspect of the totality of consciousness, the totality of who you are.
Eckhart Tolle
To love is to recognize yourself in another.
Eckhart Tolle
The past cannot survive in your presence. It can only survive in your absence.
Eckhart Tolle
Wisdom comes with the ability to be still. Just look and listen. No more is needed.
Eckhart Tolle
This, too, will pass.
Eckhart Tolle
When the mind loses its density, you become translucent, like the flower. Spirit - the formless - shines through you into the world.
Eckhart Tolle
Challenges are something that can only be tackled in the present moment and require action.
Eckhart Tolle
The problems that we are facing are multiplying on the planet - economic, environmental, social, political upheaval, the list goes on. It's a time of change and transition and, as I see it, we are entering a new state of consciousness. It's a transition between one state of consciousness and another. It's an evolutionary leap that is happening.
Eckhart Tolle
Many adults play roles when they speak to young children. They use silly words and sounds. They talk down to the child. They don't treat the child as an equal. The fact that you temporarily know more, or you're bigger does not mean the child is not your equal.
Eckhart Tolle
When one child says to another, I can do this, I bet you can't My dad has a bigger car than yours or, My dad is stronger than yours. Children identify with this or that, trying to build up a sense of self - a mentally defined sense of self.
