More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
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
Many people identify their sense of self with the problems they have, or think they have.
Eckhart Tolle
To the ego, the present moment hardly exists. Only past and future are considered important.
Eckhart Tolle
True listening is another way of bringing stillness into the relationship. When you truly listen to someone, the dimension of stillness arises and becomes an essential part of the relationship.
Eckhart Tolle
Hope is what keeps you going, but hope keeps you focused on the future, and this continued focus perpetuates your denial of the Now and therefore your unhappiness.
Eckhart Tolle
For the ego to survive, it must make time - past and future - more important than the present moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Don't judge or analyze what you observe. Watch the thought, feel the emotion, observe the reaction. Don't make a personal problem out of them. You will then feel something more powerful than any of those things that you observe: the still, observing presence itself behind the content of your mind, the silent watcher.
Eckhart Tolle
All it takes is a simple choice, a simple decision: no matter what happens, I will create no more pain for myself. I will create no more problems.
Eckhart Tolle
Love, joy, and peace cannot flourish until you have freed yourself from mind dominance.
Eckhart Tolle
What is commonly called 'falling in love' is in most cases an intensification of egoic wanting and needing. You become addicted to another person, or rather to your image of that person. It has nothing to do with true love, which contains no wanting whatsoever.
Eckhart Tolle
The most powerful state for a human to be in is the state of embracing completely the reality of what is - Now. It is to say Yes to life, which is now and always now. There is a vast power in that Yes, that state of inner non-resistance to what is.
Eckhart Tolle
A self - a me - exists in every thought and every emotion. Suffering arises through complete identification with thinking and emotions.
Eckhart Tolle
Even if you achieve your outer purpose, it will never satisfy you if you haven't found your inner purpose, which is awakening, being present, being in alignment with life. True power comes out of the presence it is the presence.
Eckhart Tolle
The flower of # consciousness needs the mud out of which it grows.
Eckhart Tolle
Strictly speaking, you cannot become enlightened, because who you take yourself to be is like a ripple in the ocean of consciousness - or a little wave if you're a VIP - and the ripple doesn't become enlightened until it realizes that its ripple-identity is ultimately a misperception, that it is the ocean taking on a fleeting ripple-form.
Eckhart Tolle
If you are not taking responsibility for your state of consciousness, you are not taking responsibility for life.
Eckhart Tolle
◦At the deepest level of Being, you are one with all that is
Eckhart Tolle
The reason why the romantic love relationship is such an intense and universally sought-after experience is that it seems to offer liberation from a deep-seated state of fear, need, lack, and incompleteness that is part of the human condition in its unredeemed and unenlightened state.
Eckhart Tolle
The vital function that pets fulfill in this world hasn't been fully recognized. They keep millions of people sane.
Eckhart Tolle
When you listen to a thought, you are aware not only of the thought but also of yourself as the witness of the thought. A new dimension of consciousness has come in.
