Quote

What I know for sure is that I am a temporary expression in physical form of the one consciousness that expresses itself throughout the universe. I am not separate from that.

Image
You are not just a meaningless fragment in an alien universe, briefly suspended between life and death, allowed a few short-lived pleasures followed by pain and ultimate annihilation.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Suffering is necessary until you realize it is unnecessary.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Everything is shown up by being exposed to the light, and whatever is exposed to the light itself becomes light.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You will enjoy any activity in which you are fully present.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
You are not what happens in your life. You are the space in which it happens, which is consciousness itself.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Feel the energy of your inner body. Immediately mental noise slows down or ceases. Feel it in your hands, your feet, your abdomen, your chest. Feel the life that you are, the life that animates the body. The body then becomes a doorway, so to speak, into a deeper sense of aliveness underneath the fluctuating emotions and underneath your thinking.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The realm of consciousness is much vaster than thought can grasp. When you no longer believe everything you think, you step out of thought and see clearly that the thinker is not who you are.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
For some people, it's the beginning of an awakening when they hear or read, You have a voice in your head that never stops talking. Have you noticed that? And suddenly they become aware that the thoughts go through their heads, whereas before they were so identified with them that they were those thoughts.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The significance is hiding in the insignificant. Appreciate everything.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
To stay present in everyday life, it helps to be deeply rooted within yourself otherwise, the mind, which has incredible momentum, will drag you along like a wild river.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Look around the room a few times a day as if you had just been born into that room.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
If you don't mind being unhappy, what happens to the unhappiness?
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Since ancient times, spiritual masters of all traditions have pointed to the Now as the key to the spiritual dimension. Despite this, it seems to have remained a secret.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Spiritual Awakening is awakening from the dream of thought.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When your sense of self is no longer tied to thought, is no longer conceptual, there is a depth of feeling, of sensing, of compassion, of loving, that was not there when you were trapped in mental concepts. You are that depth.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
When you listen to the voice in your head, listen to it impartially. That is to say, do not judge. You'll soon realize: there is the voice, and here I am listening to it, watching it. This I am realization, this sense of your own presence, is not a thought. It arises from beyond the mind.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
To offer no resistance to life is to be in a state of grace, ease, and lightness. This state is then no longer dependent upon things being in a certain way, good or bad. It seems almost paradoxical, yet when your inner dependency on form is gone, the general conditions of your life, the outer forms, tend to improve greatly.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Whatever you do in your business comes out of a state of inner alignment with life and the source of life itself, so peace flows into whatever you do.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
To the ego, the present moment hardly exists. Only past and future are considered important.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Can you feel that there is something in you that is at war, something that feels threatened and wants to survive at all cost, that needs the drama in order to assert its identity as the victorious character within that theatrical production? Can you feel there is something in you that would rather be right than at peace?
