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.

More quotes by Eckhart Tolle
God is not a personality outside of you. What God is, is inextricably part of what you are. God is the dimension of depth within you.
Eckhart Tolle
When you are present, when your attention is fully and intensely in the Now, Being can be felt, but it can never be understood mentally.
Eckhart Tolle
Transcending the world does not mean to withdraw from the world, to no longer take action, or to stop interacting with people. Transcendence of the world is to act and to interact without any self-seeking.
Eckhart Tolle
Nothing that you plan is going to work out. Everything is going to be totally different than the way you expected. And things will constantly challenge you. Wherever you look the world is not as solid it seems to be.
Eckhart Tolle
Things and conditions can give you pleasure but they cannot give you joy- joy arises from within.
Eckhart Tolle
If there are people you haven't forgiven, you're not going to really awaken. You have to let go.
Eckhart Tolle
The primary purpose of life is in being in the NOW.
Eckhart Tolle
The egoic madness, or dysfunction, becomes enormously amplified by the science and technology we all have developed.
Eckhart Tolle
Anything that you resent and strongly react to in another is also in you.
Eckhart Tolle
It is much more likely that help comes in when what you are doing is done while you are in a state of inner peace, rather than resistance.
Eckhart Tolle
Until presence becomes your predominant state, you may find yourself moving back and forth for a while between the old consciousness and the new, between mind identification and presence.
Eckhart Tolle
Give up defining yourself - to yourself or to others. You won't die. You will come to life.
Eckhart Tolle
Most people's lives are run by desire and fear. Desire is the need to add something to yourself in order to be yourself more fully. All fear is the fear of losing something and thereby becoming diminished and being less. These two movements obscure the fact that Being cannot be given or taken away. Being in its fullness is already within you, Now.
Eckhart Tolle
Give yourself completely to the act of listening. Beyond the sounds there is something greater, a sacredness that cannot be understood through thought.
Eckhart Tolle
I was deeply identified with a very unhappy, egoic entity I believed was me. For years I lived in depression and continuous anxiety. One night I couldn't stand it anymore. The thought came into my mind, I cannot live with myself any longer.
Eckhart Tolle
The teaching arises out of the stillness. But when I'm alone, there's only the stillness, and that is my favorite place.
Eckhart Tolle
Many people live with a tormentor in their head that continuously attacks and punishes them and drains them of vital energy. It is the cause of untold misery and unhappiness, as well as of disease.
Eckhart Tolle
Awareness is the power that is concealed within the present moment. … The ultimate purpose of human existence, which is to say, your purpose, is to bring that power into this world.
Eckhart Tolle
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
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.
