Eckhart Tolle Quotes About Spirituality
-
Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have. Make the Now the primary focus of your life.
→ -
See if you can catch yourself complaining in either speech or thought, about a situation you find yourself in, what other people do or say, your surroundings, your life situation, even the weather. To complain is always nonacceptance of what is. It invariably carries an unconscious negative charge. When you complain, you make yourself a victim. Leave the situation or accept it. All else is madness.
→ -
You are here to enable the divine purpose of the Universe to unfold. That is how important you are!
→ -
Enlightenment means rising above thought, not falling back to a level below thought, the level of an animal or a plant. In the enlightened state, you still use your thinking mind when needed, but in a much more focused and effective way than before.
→ -
I cannot tell you any spiritual truth that deep within you don't know already. All I can do is remind you of what you have forgotten.
→ -
It is through gratitude for the present moment that the spiritual dimension of life opens up.
→ -
True intelligence operates silently. Stillness is where creativity and solutions to problems are found.
→ -
You simply have to surrender to the present moment. Be alert. Watch something in a state of alertness. Always, continuously, bring that into everyday life, not spirituality here and getting on with your life there.
→ -
When you live in surrender, something comes through you into the world of duality that is not of this world.
→ -
Pleasure is always derived from something outside you, whereas joy arises from within.
→ -
Not until you surrender does the spiritual dimension become a living reality in your life. When you do, the energy you emanate and that then runs your life is of a much higher vibrational frequency than the mind energy that still runs the world.
→ -
You can have religion with spirituality. You can also have religion without spirituality.
→ -
To be identified with your mind is to be trapped in time: the compulsion to live almost exclusively through memory and anticipation. This creates an endless preoccupation with past and future and an unwillingness to honor and acknowledge the present moment and allow it to be. The compulsion arises because the past gives you an identity and the future holds the promise of salvation, of fulfillment in whatever form. Both are illusions.
→ -
To be conscious of Being, you need to reclaim consciousness from the mind. This is one of the most essential tasks on your spiritual journey.
→ -
You must have failed deeply on some level or experienced some deep loss or pain to be drawn to the spiritual dimension. Or perhaps your very success became empty and meaningless and so turned out to be a failure.
→ -
Not to be able to stop thinking is a dreadful affliction, but we don't realize this because almost everyone is suffering from it, so it is considered normal. This incessant mental noise prevents you from finding that realm of inner stillness that is inseparable from Being.
→ -
The key is to be in a state of permanent connectedness with your inner body - to feel it at all times. This will rapidly deepen and transform your life. The more consciousness you direct into the inner body, the higher its vibrational frequency becomes.
