Whatever you want to achieve is secondary: the business, the exchange of information, whatever it may be. Yes, you do that also, but there is a deeper foundation - meeting that human being in a state of shared presence.

More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
That stillness and vastness that enables the Universe to be, is not just out there in space...it is also within you.
Eckhart Tolle
You take a journey into the Unmanifested every night when you enter the phase of deep dreamless sleep. You merge with the Source. You draw from it the vital energy that sustains you for a while when you return to the manifested, the world of separate forms.
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
Spiritual Awakening is awakening from the dream of thought.
Eckhart Tolle
If you are not living this moment, you are not really living.
Eckhart Tolle
In whatever way change comes, the important thing is to take responsibility for this moment. Then, life becomes cooperative.
Eckhart Tolle
Your unhappiness ultimately arises not from the circumstances of your life but from the conditioning of your mind.
Eckhart Tolle
You become most powerful in whatever you do if the action is performed for its own sake rather than as a means to protect, enhance, or conform to your role identity.
Eckhart Tolle
We could say that the totality, life wants the sapling to become a tree, but the sapling doesn't see itself as separate from life and so wants nothing for itself. It is one with what life wants. That's why it isn't worried or stressed. And, if it has to die prematurely, it dies with ease.
Eckhart Tolle
We can learn not to keep situations or events alive in our minds, but to return our attention continuously to the pristine, timeless present moment rather than be caught up in mental movie making.
Eckhart Tolle
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
Many adults play roles when they speak to young children. They use silly words and sounds. They talk down to the child. They don't treat the child as an equal. The fact that you temporarily know more, or you're bigger does not mean the child is not your equal.
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
The future is only a thought form. Work with the present moment. Be with what is.
Eckhart Tolle
Boredom, anger, sadness, or fear are not 'yours,' not personal. They are conditions of the human mind. They come and go. Nothing that comes and goes is you.
Eckhart Tolle
The 'soul' is one of the words you can use to talk about your innermost being, the essence of who you are.
Eckhart Tolle
One way to become aware many times during the day is to take a conscious breath. Doing so breaks the stream of thinking.
Eckhart Tolle
Let go of thought, become still and alert, and don't try to understand or explain.
Eckhart Tolle
You must have failed deeply on some level or experienced some deep loss or pain to be drawn to the spiritual dimension. Or perhaps your very success became empty and meaningless and so turned out to be a failure.
Eckhart Tolle
When you live in complete acceptance of what is, that is the end of all drama in your life.
Eckhart Tolle
