More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
We can learn not to keep situations or events alive in our minds, but to return our attention continuously to the pristine, timeless present moment rather than be caught up in mental movie making.
Eckhart Tolle
Life always is now. Life is inseparable from now.
Eckhart Tolle
To know yourself as the Being underneath the thinker, the stillness underneath the mental noise, the love and joy underneath the pain, is freedom, salvation, enlightenment.
Eckhart Tolle
Nonresistance, nonjudgment, and nonattachment are the three aspects of true freedom and enlightened living.
Eckhart Tolle
Seek out a tree and let it teach you stillness.
Eckhart Tolle
If increased meta-knowledge is not counter-balanced by a corresponding growth in consciousness then the likelihood of psycho-spiritual dysfunction is great.
Eckhart Tolle
Give yourself completely to the act of listening. Beyond the sounds there is something greater, a sacredness that cannot be understood through thought.
Eckhart Tolle
I have spoken to many people who have begun to live in presence, and they find many changes come into their lives. Sometimes these changes happen as inner realizations - This is what I have to do - or they arise from the external when something suddenly happens.
Eckhart Tolle
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
When you recognize that there is a voice in your head that pretends to be you and never stops speaking, you are awakening out of your unconscious identification with the stream of thinking. When you notice that voice, you realize that who you are is not the voice - the thinker - but the one who is aware of it.
Eckhart Tolle
Life is your deepest inner Being. It is already whole, complete, perfect.
Eckhart Tolle
God is not a personality outside of you. What God is, is inextricably part of what you are. God is the dimension of depth within you.
Eckhart Tolle
Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness. How do you know this is the experience you need? Because this is the experience you are having at the moment.
Eckhart Tolle
To have your attention in the Now is not a denial of what is needed in your life. It is recognition of what is primary.
Eckhart Tolle
The teaching arises out of the stillness. But when I'm alone, there's only the stillness, and that is my favorite place.
Eckhart Tolle
As the character changes in the movie, it rubs off on the viewer, so the viewer also goes through that change.
Eckhart Tolle
You become most powerful in whatever you do if the action is performed for its own sake rather than as a means to protect, enhance, or conform to your role identity.
Eckhart Tolle
We would destroy ourselves and the planet if no change happens, because of the amplification of the egoic state through science and technology.
Eckhart Tolle
Challenges are something that can only be tackled in the present moment and require action.
Eckhart Tolle
At the height of creative activity fueled by enthusiasm, there will be enormous intensity and energy behind what you do. You will feel like an arrow that is moving toward the target-and enjoying the journey.
