More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
To me, inner and outer are so strongly linked that any collective change that happens within human beings, within the human psyche, inevitably will be reflected externally in what happens on the whole planet.
Eckhart Tolle
Evil is an extreme manifestation of human unconsciousness.
Eckhart Tolle
The outer form is a temporary reflection of what you are within, in your essence. That is why love and beauty can never leave you, although all outer forms will.
Eckhart Tolle
I feel that I need to return to the pure stillness periodically. And then, when the teaching happens, just allow it to arise out of the stillness. So the teaching and stillness are very closely connected. 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
The ego is a false sense based on mental concepts. It is identification with the body and the mind-primarily identification with thought form.
Eckhart Tolle
Forget about your life situation and pay attention to your life. Your life situation exists in time. Your life is now. Your life situation is mind-stuff. Your life is real. Instead of asking 'what do I want from life?,' a more powerful question is, 'what does life want from me?'
Eckhart Tolle
Welcome to the present moment. Here. Now. The only moment there ever is.
Eckhart Tolle
Neither concepts nor mathematical formulae can explain the infinite.
Eckhart Tolle
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
If I cannot live with myself, there must be two of me
Eckhart Tolle
Why is old considered useless? Because in old age, the emphasis shifts from doing to Being, and our civilization, which is lost in doing, knows nothing of Being. It asks: Being? What do you do with it?
Eckhart Tolle
You cannot give your full attention to something, and at the same time resist it.
Eckhart Tolle
In any relationship, especially marriage, be as free of compulsive thinking as possible. In other words, the more space there is in the relationship - inner space - the more love there is because love arises out of the inner spaciousness.
Eckhart Tolle
Surrendering only refers to this moment, whatever is at this moment - to accept unconditionally and fully whatever arises at this moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Many people live habitually as if the present moment were an obstacle that they need to overcome in order to get to the next moment, and imagine living your whole live like that. Always, this moment is not quite good enough because you need to get to the next one.
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
Awareness and ego cannot coexist.
Eckhart Tolle
The primary purpose of life is in being in the NOW.
Eckhart Tolle
Every challenge takes you a little deeper and awakens you again and again. Without the challenges, you probably would go to back to sleep. The challenges keep you awake.
Eckhart Tolle
If you don't mind being unhappy, what happens to the unhappiness?
Eckhart Tolle
