More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
If you are in a state of intense presence you are free of thought, yet highly alert. If your conscious attention sinks below a certain level, thought rushes in, the mental noise returns, stillness is lost, you're back in time.
Eckhart Tolle
In fact, people think you have to be stressed to be successful. They think if you are not stressed, something is wrong with you.
Eckhart Tolle
To become aware of the subtlety of nature you need to be alert. The moment you become alert you become still... thinking subsides. That is actually a higher state of consciousness than thinking.
Eckhart Tolle
The more you make your thoughts and beliefs into your identity, the more cut off you are from the spiritual dimension within yourself.
Eckhart Tolle
It is when we are trapped in incessant streams of compulsive thinking that the universe really disintegrates for us, and we lose the ability to sense the interconnectedness of all that exists.
Eckhart Tolle
The only thing you ever have is now.
Eckhart Tolle
Negative states of mind, such as anger, resentment, fear, envy, and jealousy, are products of the ego.
Eckhart Tolle
The ego says, I shouldn't have to suffer, and that thought makes you suffer so much more.
Eckhart Tolle
If you are not in the state of either acceptance, enjoyment, or enthusiasm, look closely and you will find that you are creating suffering for yourself and others.
Eckhart Tolle
Only the truth of who you are, if realized, will set you free.
Eckhart Tolle
Nothing that you plan is going to work out. Everything is going to be totally different than the way you expected. And things will constantly challenge you. Wherever you look the world is not as solid it seems to be.
Eckhart Tolle
Fear seems to have many causes. Fear of loss, fear of failure, fear of being hurt, and so on, but ultimately all fear is the ego's fear of death, of annihilation. To the ego, death is always just around the corner. In this mind-identified state, fear of death affects every aspect of your life.
Eckhart Tolle
Once you realize that a certain kind of food makes you sick, would you carry on eating that food and keep on asserting that it's okay to be sick?
Eckhart Tolle
Creativity arises out of the state of thoughtless presence in which you are much more awake than when you are engrossed in thinking.
Eckhart Tolle
Direct your attention inward. Have a look inside yourself. What kind of thoughts is your mind producing? What do you feel? Direct your attention into the body. Is there any tension? Once you detect that there is a low level of unease, the background static, see in what way you are avoiding, resisting, or denying life-by denying the Now.
Eckhart Tolle
Terrorism is an example of that extreme madness. People blow themselves up just to kill others. Unconscious reaction to terrorism is equal madness.
Eckhart Tolle
Enthusiasm cannot be a continuous state. It comes in waves.
Eckhart Tolle
The ego wants to want more than it wants to have. And so the shallow satisfaction of having is always replaced by more wanting.
Eckhart Tolle
You might say, 'What a dreadful day', without realizing that the cold, the wind, and the rain or whatever condition you react to are not dreadful. They are as they are. What is dreadful is your reaction, your inner resistance to it, and the emotion that is created by that resistance.
Eckhart Tolle
If I find here and Now unacceptable, I have three choices: 1-Totally accept it. 2- Change it. 3-Remove myself from the situation. That is taking responsibility for my life.
Eckhart Tolle
