Image
I have spoken to many people who have begun to live in presence, and they find many changes come into their lives. Sometimes these changes happen as inner realizations - This is what I have to do - or they arise from the external when something suddenly happens.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The primary purpose of life is in being in the NOW.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
I call animals guardians of Being, especially animals that live with humans. Because, for many humans, it's through their contact with animals they get in touch with that level of being.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Just as the sun is infinitely brighter than a candle flame, there is infinitely more intelligence in Being than in your mind
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Be aware of your breathing as often as you are able, whenever you remember. Do that for one year, and it will be powerfully transformative. And it's free.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You are not separate from the whole. You are one with the sun, the earth, the air. You don’t have a life. You are life.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Stress is a form of suffering, but it is accepted as normal. And it is normal in our world.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Sense your presence, the naked, unveiled, unclothed beingness. It is untouched by young or old, rich or poor, good or bad, or any other attributes.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
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
Image
The habit patterns of the human mind are very strong and make it seem that the hard way is easy and the easy way is hard.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
There are situations when all answers and explanations fade. When you fully accept that you do not know, you give up struggling to find answers with the limited thinking mind. That is when the greater intelligence can operate though you. Sometimes surrender means giving up trying to understand and becoming comfortable with not knowing.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Now if a teacher gives you a practice, he or she would perhaps point out when you don't need it anymore or you realize yourself when you don't need it anymore.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you are suffering, when you are unhappy, stay totally with what is Now. Unhappiness or problems cannot survive in the Now.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Please open your eyes now, but keep attention in the inner energy field of the body as you look around the room. The inner body lies at the threshold between your form identity and your essence identity, your true nature. Never lose touch with it.
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
Whatever you think the world is withholding from you, you are withholding from the world.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Awareness of the inner body is consciousness remembering its origin and returning to the Source.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Negative states of mind, such as anger, resentment, fear, envy, and jealousy, are products of the ego.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Focus your attention on the Now and tell me what problem you have at this moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
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?
