As long as we define ourselves in terms of our pain and our problems, we will never be free from them.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Knowing yourself as the awareness behind the voice is freedom.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
...the past gives you an identity and the future holds the promise of salvation, of fulfillment in whaterver form. Both are illusions.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
If you are not taking responsibility for your state of consciousness, you are not taking responsibility for life.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Give up waiting as a state of mind. When you catch yourself slipping into waiting...snap out of it. Come into the present moment. Just be and enjoy being.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Stressful energy arises when you think some future moment is more important than the present moment, and the doing becomes only a means to an end.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The whole world accepts that being stressed is the normal way to live.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Every challenge is a disguised opportunity for salvation.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
For the ego to survive, it must make time - past and future - more important than the present moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Reality is a unified whole, but thought cuts it up into fragments.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
It's interesting that stepping out of thought was actually triggered by a thought.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
A belief may be comforting. Only through your own experience, however, does it become liberating.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you are fully present with everyone you meet, you relinquish the conceptual identity you made for them - your interpretation of who they are and what they did in the past - and are able to interact without the egoic movements of desire and fear. Attention, which is alert stillness, is the key.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Wisdom comes with the ability to be still. Just look and just listen. No more is needed. Being still, looking, and listening activates the non-conceptual intelligence within you. Let stillness direct your words and actions.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You are the sky. The clouds are what happens, what comes and goes.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Love, joy, and peace cannot flourish until you have freed yourself from mind dominance.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The basis for true change is freedom from negativity. And that's what acceptance implies: no negativity about what is. And then you see what this moment requires: what is it that is required now so that life can express itself more fully?
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The Now is as it is because it cannot be otherwise. What Buddhists have always known, physicists now confirm: there are no isolated things or events. Underneath the surface appearance, all things are interconnected, are part of the totality of the cosmos that has brought about the form that this moment takes.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Go within. Use the inner body as a starting point for going deeper and taking your attention away from where it's usually lodged, in the thinking mind.
