Failures lies concealed in every success in every failure.
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
Image
Death means that a form of life dissolves or that the imminent possibility of dissolution exists, whether through our own death or through illness or old age.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The ego is just waiting to identify with anything. Whether it's your misery or being a great meditator, it seeks some identification.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you recognize the sacredness, the beauty, the incredible stillness and dignity in which a flower or a tree exists, you add something to the flower or the tree. Through your recognition, your awareness, nature too comes to know itself. It comes to know its own beauty and sacredness through you.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
That stillness and vastness that enables the Universe to be, is not just out there in space...it is also within you.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Being spiritual has nothing to do with what you believe and everything to do with your state of consciousness.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Once you realize that a certain kind of food makes you sick, would you carry on eating that food and keep on asserting that it's okay to be sick?
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Anything that you resent and strongly react to in another is also in you.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The mental suffering you create is always some form of non-acceptance, some form of unconscious resistance to what is. On the level of thought, the resistance is some form of judgement. The intensity of the suffering depends on the degree of resistance to the present moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Through being right, you feel superior and through feeling superior you strengthen your sense of self. In reality, of course, you are only strengthening the illusion of ego.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You can be effective in this world without stress.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Awareness is the greatest agent for change.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
There is a fine balance between honoring the past and losing yourself in it.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The whole world changes when there's presence - sunlight everywhere - because you're not separate from the world.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
With awareness there comes choice. And so you are able to say: I allow this moment to be as it is. And then, suddenly, where before there was irritation, there is now a sense of aliveness and peace. And out of that comes right action.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Every challenge takes you a little deeper and awakens you again and again. Without the challenges, you probably would go to back to sleep. The challenges keep you awake.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
As long as you make an identity for yourself out of pain, you cannot be free of it.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The particular egoic patterns that you react to most strongly in others and misperceive as their identity tend to be the same patterns that are also in you, but that you are unable or unwilling to detect within yourself.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Every challenge is a disguised opportunity for salvation.
