Eckhart Tolle

“Whenever you are unhappy, there is a deep hidden belief that the present moment is not as it should be.”

“You attain to the present moment by accepting it.”

“All problems are illusions of the mind.”

“Boredom, anger, sadness, or fear are not 'yours,' not personal. They are conditions of the human mind.”

“Become aware of being aware. Say or think 'I am' and add nothing to it.”

“Whenever there is some kind of deep loss in your life, there's a great chance for awakening.”

“What people don't realize is the joy of being.”

“Do not look for peace. Do not look for any other state than the one you are in now.”

“The collective ego is more unconscious than the individual ego.”

“Be aware that what you think, to a large extent, creates the emotions that you feel.”

“True salvation is freedom from negativity, and above all from past and future as a psychological need.”

“Some people awaken spiritually without ever coming into contact with any meditation technique or any spiritual teaching.”

“In stillness everything has its answer.”

“You attain to power through complete acceptance of powerlessness.”

“In doing without enjoyment of what you do, no Being flows into what you do.”

“The whole essence of Zen consists in walking along the razor's edge of Now.”

“To meet everyone and everything through stillness is to recognize the divine.”

“The brain does not create consciousness, but consciousness created the brain.”

“Don't seek happiness. If you seek it, you won't find it, because seeking is the antithesis of happiness.”
