When there's somebody there who is transparent enough so that the stillness comes through unhindered, there's a reciprocal movement in you because the presence of stillness suddenly recognizes itself.

More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
A great silent space holds all of nature in its embrace. It also holds you.
Eckhart Tolle
And so I came to understand why some masters sometimes say, You are already enlightened.
Eckhart Tolle
Enlightened groups can exist, as long as the individuals' sense of identity is not derived from a mentally defined image of us.
Eckhart Tolle
Your outer journey may contain a million steps your inner journey only has one: the step you are taking right now.
Eckhart Tolle
The world is in such a mess because of the continuous conflict that arises between human beings - not only between individuals but between tribes and nations and this group and that group and so on. But change can come in only when people start with themselves.
Eckhart Tolle
As soon as you honor the present moment, all unhappiness and struggle dissolve.
Eckhart Tolle
People are amazed to realize they can enjoy the moment rather than be stressed by it when hurrying to an appointment. You can enjoy the energy movement of the moment when you do not have a mental projection of a future moment you need to get to. You still know that you need to get there, but it is the secondary consideration.
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
When you are present, you can allow the mind to be as it is without getting entangled in it.
Eckhart Tolle
A practice can be helpful, but didn't the Buddha compare it to a raft, suggesting it be abandoned when you reach the other shore?
Eckhart Tolle
Every being is a spark of the Divine, or God. Look into the eyes of the dog and sense that innermost core. When you are present, you can sense the spirit, the one consciousness, in every creature and love it as yourself.
Eckhart Tolle
Actually, the ability to choose presence depends on the degree of presence that's emerging in you. Ultimately, you are not choosing, there's nobody there to choose. When you think you are choosing, presence is simply emerging in that moment.
Eckhart Tolle
All problems are illusions of the mind.
Eckhart Tolle
Through forgiveness, which essentially means recognizing the insubstantiality of the past and allowing the present moment to be as it is, the miracle of transformation happens not only within but also without.
Eckhart Tolle
True communication is communion-the realization of oneness, which is love.
Eckhart Tolle
The future is only a thought form. Work with the present moment. Be with what is.
Eckhart Tolle
You cannot receive what you don't give. Outflow determines inflow. Whatever you think the world is withholding from you, you already have, but unless you allow it to flow out, you won't even know that you have it. This includes abundance.
Eckhart Tolle
There can be associations - enlightened businesses, for example - that do not work on the basis of us against them or wanting profit as the main motivating force behind what they do.
Eckhart Tolle
For most people, spiritual awakening is a gradual process. Rarely does it happen all at once. When it does, though, it is usually brought about by intense suffering.
Eckhart Tolle
Use whatever challenge comes into your life as a kind of fuel for the flame of consciousness. That is done through surrender to what is. Some people may need more of that than others. If you choose presence in your daily life you may not need the drastic challenges.
