Eckhart Tolle

“Wisdom comes with the ability to be still.”

“Just look and listen. No more is needed.”

“Being still, looking, and listening activates the non-conceptual intelligence within you.”

“All the things that truly matter — beauty, love, creativity, joy, inner peace — arise from beyond the mind.”

“Awakening is a shift in consciousness in which thinking and awareness separate.”

“In every life experience, attempt to find the deeper level of which the experience is a reflection.”

“The world will give you the opportunity to experience presence — through difficulty, through challenge.”

“To meet everything and everyone through stillness instead of mental noise is the greatest gift you can offer.”

“Anything that you resent and strongly react to in another is also in you.”

“Whenever you are in a 'difficult situation,' the response of the awakened being is presence.”

“Equate yourself with neither emotion nor reaction.”

“Realize that the situation IS — and accept it.”

“Most of what people refer to as their 'life' is actually their life situation, not their life.”

“Your life situation exists in time. Your life is now.”

“You can think about the past or future. But the past or future do not exist.”

“Time isn't precious at all, because it is an illusion. What you perceive as precious is the Now.”

“True love is found in the realm of being, not in any particular form.”

“To love is to recognize the indwelling Spirit in another.”

“You are the universe expressing itself as a human for a little while.”
