Terrorism is an example of that extreme madness. People blow themselves up just to kill others. Unconscious reaction to terrorism is equal madness.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Authentic human interactions become impossible when you lose yourself in a role.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
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
Image
For spiritual teachers, it is important not to identify with the image people inevitably have of them.
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
You are the Universe expressing itself as a human for a little while.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The primary purpose of life is in being in the NOW.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
There is another side to death. Whether death happens through an act of violence to a large number of people or to an individual, whether death comes prematurely through illness or accident, or whether death comes through old age, death is always an opening. So a great opportunity comes whenever we face death.
Eckhart Tolle

Suffering is necessary until you realize it is unnecessary.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Forget about your life situation and pay attention to your life. Your life situation exists in time. Your life is now. Your life situation is mind-stuff. Your life is real. Instead of asking 'what do I want from life?,' a more powerful question is, 'what does life want from me?'
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The word Buddha comes from the Sanskrit word Budh, meaning, to be awake. So Buddha is not a name and ultimately not a person, but a state of consciousness.

Quality requires your Presence.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
To me the ego is the habitual and compulsive thought processes that go through everybody's mind continuously. External things like possessions or memories or failures or successes or achievements. Your personal history.
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
Most people's lives are run by desire and fear. Desire is the need to add something to yourself in order to be yourself more fully. All fear is the fear of losing something and thereby becoming diminished and being less. These two movements obscure the fact that Being cannot be given or taken away. Being in its fullness is already within you, Now.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
One only needs to read twentieth-century history to see that it has been the climax of human madness, if it's measured in terms of human violence inflicted on other humans.
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
To awaken within the dream is our purpose now. When we are awake within the dream, the ego-created earth-drama comes to an end and a more benign and wonderous dream arises.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Then, if action is possible or necessary, you take action or rather right action happens through you. Right action is action that is appropriate to the whole. When the action is accomplished, the alert, spacious stillness remains.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The state of presence is the only state in which creative energy is available to you.
