Quote

On the new Earth, as the awakened consciousness comes in, I would say the ego would develop in children and quickly become outgrown when they reach adulthood.

◦At the deepest level of Being, you are one with all that is
Eckhart Tolle
Image
To experience anything fully and see it clearly there must be a moment of presence where conceptual thinking is not interfering with your experience of that moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You are the light of the world. You are the consciousness that illuminates the world. Know yourself as that, and that's freedom, liberation, awakening, the end of suffering and madness. And it's happening right here.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Since ancient times the term awakening has been used as a kind of metaphor that points to the transformation of human consciousness. There are parables in the New Testament that speak of the importance of being awake, of not falling back to sleep.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You need to learn to be with the suffering that inevitably arises in your life.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Some people get attached to their practice. They get good at it, but even becoming a good meditator can become a hindrance.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
What will be left of all the fearing and wanting associated with your problematic life situation that every day takes up most of your attention? A dash, one or two inches long, between the date of birth and date of death on your gravestone.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
There can be associations - enlightened businesses, for example - that do not work on the basis of us against them or wanting profit as the main motivating force behind what they do.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
If you are in the habit of creating suffering for yourself, then you are probably creating suffering for others too
Eckhart Tolle
Image
What a liberation to realize that the 'voice in my head' is not who I am. 'Who am I, then?' The one who sees that.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The whole essence of Zen consists in walking along the razor's edge of Now - to be so utterly, so completely present that no problem, no suffering, nothing that is not who you are in your essence, can survive in you. In the Now, in the absence of time, all your problems dissolve. Suffering needs time it cannot survive in the Now.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Let go of thought, become still and alert, and don't try to understand or explain.
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
Image
When you live in surrender, something comes through you into the world of duality that is not of this world.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The soul is your innermost being. The presence that you are beyond form. The consciousness that you are beyond form, that is the soul. That is who you are in essence.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you live in complete acceptance of what is, that is the end of all drama in your life.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you recognize that there is a voice in your head that pretends to be you and never stops speaking, you are awakening out of your unconscious identification with the stream of thinking. When you notice that voice, you realize that who you are is not the voice - the thinker - but the one who is aware of it.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The evolutionary impulse is towards disidentification from thinking and the arising of awareness or presence, but the gravitational pull of the old consciousness, or rather unconsciousness, is still quite heavy. It's been around for thousands of years.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
In today's rush we all think too much, seek too much, want too much and forget about the joy of just Being.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
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.
Eckhart Tolle
