Personally, I don't teach practices as such. The power of the teaching is sufficient without needing to go for any practice.
Eckhart Tolle
Accept the present moment without judgement.
Eckhart Tolle
Man Made 'God' in his own image. The eternal, the infinate, the unnameable was reduced to a mental idol that you had to believe in and worship as 'my god' or 'our god'.
Eckhart Tolle
The quicker you are in attaching verbal or mental labels to things, people, or situations, the more shallow and lifeless your reality becomes, and the more deadened you become to reality
Eckhart Tolle
You create a good future by creating a good present.
Eckhart Tolle
You are not separate from the whole. You are one with the sun, the earth, the air. You don’t have a life. You are life.
Eckhart Tolle

Eckhart Tolle
Since ancient times, spiritual masters of all traditions have pointed to the Now as the key to the spiritual dimension. Despite this, it seems to have remained a secret.
Eckhart Tolle
The predominance of mind is no more than a stage in the evolution of consciousness. We need to go on to the next stage now as a matter of urgency otherwise, we will be destroyed by the mind, which has grown into a monster.
Eckhart Tolle
The greater part of human pain is unnecessary. It is self-created as long as the unobserved mind runs your life.
Eckhart Tolle
Life is your deepest inner Being. It is already whole, complete, perfect.
Eckhart Tolle
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
Enthusiasm cannot be a continuous state. It comes in waves.
Eckhart Tolle
Practice presence -- embrace the place where life happens.
Eckhart Tolle
It's a wonderful thing to perceive the world and to interact with it and with other people and nature from that deep place of utter stillness, where the compulsion to immediately label and interpret whatever arises around you is no longer there.
Eckhart Tolle
Most people don't know how to listen because the major part of their attention is taken up by thinking.
Eckhart Tolle
The most rigid structures, the most impervious to change, will collapse first.
Eckhart Tolle
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
Life wants to support you. But first you need to be open to life.
Eckhart Tolle
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.
