The thing that gives you power also traps you.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Awareness is conscious connection with universal intelligence. Another word for it is Presence: consciousness without thought.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Instead of fighting the darkness, you bring in the light.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The power of now can only be realized now. It requires no time and effort. Effort means you're trying hard to get somewhere, and so you are not present, welcoming this moment as it is.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Ask yourself: Is there joy, ease and lightness in what i'm doing? If there isn't then time is covering up the present moment, and life is perceived as a burden or a struggle.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The ego is just waiting to identify with anything. Whether it's your misery or being a great meditator, it seeks some identification.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The ego says, I shouldn't have to suffer, and that thought makes you suffer so much more.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
For what you do to others, you do to yourself.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Spiritual Awakening is awakening from the dream of thought.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Many people identify their sense of self with the problems they have, or think they have.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You are never more essentially, more deeply, yourself than when you are still.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
What you react to in others, you strengthen in yourself.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When your consciousness is directed outward, mind and world arise. When it is directed inward, it realises its own Source and returns home into the Unmanifested.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you are in touch with that dimension within yourself-and being in touch with it is your natural state, all your actions and relationships will reflect the oneness with all life that you sense deep within. This is love. Laws, commandments, rules and regulations are necessary for those who are cut off from who they are, the Truth within.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Until presence becomes your predominant state, you may find yourself moving back and forth for a while between the old consciousness and the new, between mind identification and presence.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
In the stillness of your presence, you can feel your own formless and timeless reality as the unmanifested life that animates your physical form. You can then feel the same life deep within every other human and every other creature. You look beyond the veil of form and separation. This is the realization of oneness. This is love.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Enthusiasm is when the universe creates through you. You are involved in a creative act. You are bringing something new into this world. When that energy comes in, you feel an intense aliveness that flows into what you do. That is enthusiasm.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
To love is to recognize yourself in another. The others otherness then stands revealed as an illusion pertaining to the purely human realm, the realm of form.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Bring awareness to the many subtle sounds of nature - The rustling of leaves in the wind, Raindrops falling, The humming of an insect, The first birdsong at dawn.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
We are destined not to go back to the level of animals that we've come from but to return to being by going beyond thinking.
Eckhart Tolle
