More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
Love is a state of Being. Your love is not outside it is deep within you. You can never lose it, and it cannot leave you. It is not dependent on some other body, some external form.
Eckhart Tolle
The most decisive event in your life is when you discover you are not your thoughts or emotions. Instead, you can be present as the awareness behind the thoughts and emotions.
Eckhart Tolle
All inner resistance is experienced as negativity in one form or another. All negativity is resistance. In this context, the two words are almost synonymous. Negativity ranges from irritation or impatience to fierce anger, from a depressed mood or sullen resentment to suicidal despair. Sometimes the resistance triggers the emotional pain body
Eckhart Tolle
The decision to make the present moment into your friend is the end of ego.
Eckhart Tolle
When you awaken spiritually, in fact, you can use thought much more effectively than before, but you realize there is a depth to your Being, a vibrantly alive stillness that is much vaster than thought. It is consciousness itself, of which the thinking mind is only a tiny aspect.
Eckhart Tolle
Some people thought I was crazy to have let go of all the worldly things I had achieved. They didn't understand that I didn't want or need any of that anymore.
Eckhart Tolle
Death is the moment of form dissolving. When that dissolving is not resisted, an opening appears into the dimension of the sacred, into the One formless, unmanifested Life. This is why death is such an incredible opportunity. There is no transformation of human consciousness without the dissolving that death brings.
Eckhart Tolle
Sometimes people need to experience acute suffering before the thinking and the awareness of the consciousness separate. People then realize there is another dimension in them that is not thinking but the ability to be aware of thinking. It is not emotion but the ability to be aware of emotion.
Eckhart Tolle
Become conscious of being conscious.
Eckhart Tolle
What I know for sure is that I am a temporary expression in physical form of the one consciousness that expresses itself throughout the universe. I am not separate from that.
Eckhart Tolle
Life is an adventure, it's not a package tour.
Eckhart Tolle
When you accept everything for what it is without labels you are outside of your ego.
Eckhart Tolle
Loss of meaning is often part of the suffering that comes with physical loss, but it can also happen to people who have gained everything the world has to offer - who have made it in the eyes of the world - and suddenly find that their success or possessions are empty and unfulfilling.
Eckhart Tolle
Allow your dog to take you for a walk every day. It's good for the body and it's good for the soul.
Eckhart Tolle
Instead of fighting the darkness, you bring in the light.
Eckhart Tolle
Through allowing, you become what you are vast, spacious. You become whole. You are not a fragment anymore, which is how the ego perceives itself. Your true nature emerges, which is one with the nature of God.
Eckhart Tolle
Failures lies concealed in every success in every failure.
Eckhart Tolle
Enthusiasm cannot be a continuous state. It comes in waves.
Eckhart Tolle
The joy of Being, which is the only true happiness, cannot come to you through any form, possession, achievement, person, or event - through anything that happens. That joy cannot come to you - ever. It emanates from the formless dimension within you, from consciousness itself and thus is one with who you are.
Eckhart Tolle
If you don't have a good relationship with the now, you don't have a good relationship with life.
Eckhart Tolle
