Some people are stuck in tedious things, like their jobs, and they are bored. Other people experience one stressful thing after another.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Direct your attention inward. Have a look inside yourself. What kind of thoughts is your mind producing? What do you feel? Direct your attention into the body. Is there any tension? Once you detect that there is a low level of unease, the background static, see in what way you are avoiding, resisting, or denying life-by denying the Now.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When the basis for your actions is inner alignment with the present moment, your actions become empowered by the intelligence of life itself.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
I am not my thoughts, emotions, sense perceptions, and experiences. I am not the content of my life. I am Life. I am the space in which all things happen. I am consciousness. I am the Now. I Am.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Whatever you do in your business comes out of a state of inner alignment with life and the source of life itself, so peace flows into whatever you do.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You get there by realizing you are already there.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you are not making the present moment into a means to an end, you also are not making every human being you meet - in your business and even at home, in your family - into a means to an end.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
In the eyes of the ego, self-esteem and humility are contradictory. In truth, they are one and the same.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The most rigid structures, the most impervious to change, will collapse first.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
As far as inner transformation is concerned, there is nothing you can do about it. You cannot transform yourself, and you certainly cannot transform your partner or anybody else. All you can do is create a space for transformation to happen, for grace and love to enter.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Don't get stuck on the level of words. A word is no more than a means to an end. It's an abstraction. Not unlike a signpost, it points beyond itself
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Joy does not come from what you do, it flows into what you do and thus into this world from deep within you.
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
Use whatever challenge comes into your life as a kind of fuel for the flame of consciousness. That is done through surrender to what is. Some people may need more of that than others. If you choose presence in your daily life you may not need the drastic challenges.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Fear seems to have many causes. Fear of loss, fear of failure, fear of being hurt, and so on, but ultimately all fear is the ego's fear of death, of annihilation. To the ego, death is always just around the corner. In this mind-identified state, fear of death affects every aspect of your life.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Every morning we awaken from sleep and from our dreams and enter the state we call wakefulness. A continuous stream of thoughts, most of them repetitive, characterizes the normal wakeful state.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
In today's rush we all think too much, seek too much, want too much and forget about the joy of just Being.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
With stillness comes the benediction of Peace.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The first recognition of beauty was one of the most significant events in the evolution of human conciousness... seeing beauty in a flower could awaken humans, however briefly, to the beauty that is an essential part of their own innermost being, their true nature.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Your primary purpose is to be here fully, and to be total in whatever you do so that the preciousness of the present moment does not become reduced to a means to an end. And there you have your life purpose. That's the very foundation of your life.
