It is not necessary to do things in a state of anxiety or anguish. That is not the way to be aligned with life.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
One conscious breathe in and out is a meditation.
Eckhart Tolle

Complaining is one of the ego's favorite strategies for strengthening itself.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Once you have had a glimpse of awareness or Presence, you know it firsthand. It is no longer just a concept in your mind.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
There is only one perpetrator of evil on the planet: human unconsciousness. That realization is true forgiveness. With forgiveness, your victim identity dissolves, and your true power emerges--the power of Presence. Instead of blaming the darkness, you bring in the light.

Eckhart Tolle

Whenever there is negativity in you, if you can be aware in that moment that there is something in you that takes pleasure in it or believes it has a useful purpose, you are becoming aware of the ego directly. The moment this happens your identity has shifted from ego to awareness. This means the ego is shrinking and awareness is growing.

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 think of yourself as having a past, don't think of yourself as having a future. What's left?
Eckhart Tolle
Image
For years my life alternated between depression and acute anxiety. One night I woke up in a state of dread and intense fear, more intense than I had ever experienced before. Life seemed meaningless, barren, hostile. It became so unbearable that suddenly the thought came into my mind, I cannot live with myself any longer.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The pollution of the planet is only an outward reflection of an inner psychic pollution: millions of unconscious individuals not taking responsibility for their inner space.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Even running to catch a train or a taxi, you can enjoy the high energy of the moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You create a good future by creating a good present.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
I know that at the core of each religion there is the truth, heavily obscured in some cases, but it's there.
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
Because we all carry the Truth within us as our essence, we recognize it immediately.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The other person's presence ultimately is the same as your presence, because it is in presence that there is true meeting.
