Eckhart Tolle – The Power of Now

 

The beginning of freedom is the realization that you are not the possessing entity, the thinker. Knowing this enables you to observe the entity. The moment you start watching the thinker, a higher level of consciousness becomes activated. You then begin to realize that there is a vast realm of intelligence beyond thought, that thought is only a tiny aspect of that intelligence. You also realize that all the things that truly matter – beauty, love, creativity, joy, inner peace – arise from beyond the mind. You begin to awaken

Become intensely conscious of the present moment. This is a deeply satisfying thing to do. In this way, you draw consciousness away from mind activity and create a gap of no-mind in which you are highly alert and aware but not thinking. This is the essence of meditation

Become aware of a silent but powerful sense of presence. There is one certain criterion by which you can measure your success in the practice: the degree of peace that you feel within

So the single most vital step on your journey toward enlightenment is this: learn to disidentify from your mind. Every time you create a gap in the stream of mind, the light of your consciousness grows stronger

The present moment holds the key to liberation.

The more you are able to honor and accept the now, the more you are free of pain, of suffering – and free of the egoic mind

Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have. Make the now the primary focus of your life

Surrender to what is. Say “yes” to life – and see how life suddenly starts working for you rather than against you

The present moment is all you ever have. There is never a time when your life is not “this moment”. Is this not a fact

It is the quality of your consciousness at this moment that determines the future

All negativity is caused by an accumulation of psychological time and denial of the present

You may find it hard to recognize that time is the cause of your suffering or your problems

What you refer to as your “life” should more accurately be called your “life situation”.

It’s about realizing that there are no problems. Only situations

So do not be concerned with the fruit of your action – give attention to the action itself. The fruit will come of its own accord

When the compulsive striving away from the now ceases, the joy of being flows into everything you do

The root of suffering is to be found in our constant wanting and craving

Wherever you are, be there totally

If you find your here and now intolerable and it makes you unhappy, you have three options: remove yourself from the situation, change it, or accept it totally

Outer riches and inner poverty, or to “gain the world and lose your soul,”

Only the present can free you from the past

You cannot find yourself by going into the past. You find yourself by coming into the present

The second coming of Christ is a transformation of human consciousness, a shift from time to presence, from thinking to pure consciousness

Transformation is through the body, not away from it

Feeling will get you closer to the truth of who you are than thinking

Your task is not to search for love but to find a portal through which love can enter

Every physical object or body has come out of nothing, is surrounded by nothing, and will eventually return to nothing. Not only that, but even inside every physical body there is far more “nothing” than something

Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of god

If there were no illusion, there would be no enlightenment.” It is through the world and ultimately through you that the unmanifested knows itself

True communication is communion

Happiness depends on conditions being perceived as positive, inner peace does not

Awaken out of identification with form

Only those who have transcended the world can bring about a better world

Surrender is the simple but profound wisdom of yielding to rather than opposing the flow of life

You cannot be conscious and unhappy, conscious and in negativity. Negativity, unhappiness , or suffering in whatever form means that there is resistance, and resistance is always unconscious

You only need to be concerned with the inner aspect. That is primary. Of course, that will also transform the conduct of your outer life, your relationships and so on

You attract and manifest whatever corresponds to your inner state

God is being itself, not a being. There can be no subject-object relationship here, no duality, no you and god

The mind always adheres to the known

The unknown is dangerous because it has no control over it. That’s why the mind dislikes and ignores the present moment. Present-moment awareness creates a gap not only in the stream of mind but also in the past-future continuum. Nothing truly new and creative can come into this world except through that gap, that clear space of infinite possibility

It always looks as if people had a choice, but that is an illusion. As long as your mind with it’s a conditioned patterns runs your life, as long as you are your mind, what choice do you have? None. You are not even there. The mind-identified state is severely dysfunctional. It is a form of insanity. Almost everyone is suffering from this illness in varying degrees. The moment you realize this, there can be no resentment. How can you resent someone’s illness? The only appropriate response is compassion

When you surrender to what is and so become fully present, the past ceases to have any power. You do not need it anymore. Presence is the key. The now is the key

Greatest guru of all: life
