Reading is my passion and my escape since I was 5 years old. Overall, children don't realize the magic that can live inside their own heads. Better even then any movie.
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
Most humans are never fully present in the now, because unconsciously they believe that the next moment must be more important than this one. But then you miss your whole life, which is never not now.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Create a gap of no-mind in which you are highly alert and aware but not thinking. This is the essence of meditation.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You are the sky. The clouds are what happens, what comes and goes.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
True change happens within, not without. Find the Now within. Everybody you come in contact with will be touched by your presence and affected by the peace that you emanate, whether they are conscious of it or not.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
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
Image
Pain is the fuel that lights the flame of our enlightenment
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Don't get stuck on the level of words. A word is no more than a means to an end. It's an abstraction. Not unlike a signpost, it points beyond itself
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Whatever is arising in this moment, whatever condition, is part of the isness of life and therefore accepting it fully makes you an expression of the enormous power of life itself-true intelligence, which only comes when you stop obstructing the power of the present moment.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
It is not uncommon for people to spend their whole life waiting to start living.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
For many people, illness - loss of health - represents the crisis situation that triggers an awakening. With serious illness comes awareness of your own mortality, the greatest loss of all.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You have so much to learn from your enemies.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The 'soul' is one of the words you can use to talk about your innermost being, the essence of who you are.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
It may look as if the situation is creating the suffering, but ultimately this is not so - your resistance is.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Some people awaken spiritually without ever coming into contact with any meditation technique or any spiritual teaching. They may awaken simply because they can't stand the suffering anymore.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
If you are content with being nobody in particular, content not to stand out, you align yourself with the power of the universe. What looks like weakness to the ego is in fact the only true strength. This spiritual truth is diametrically opposed to the values of our contemporary culture and the way it conditions people to behave.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Your unhappiness ultimately arises not from the circumstances of your life but from the conditioning of your mind.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
In this way, a permanent energy field of a pure and high frequency will arise between you. No illusion, no pain, no conflict, nothing that is not you, and nothing that is not love can survive in it. This represents the the fulfillment of the divine transpersonal purpose of your relationship.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
If you are not taking responsibility for your state of consciousness, you are not taking responsibility for life.
Eckhart Tolle
