When you see around you the human form suffering or dissolving, you have empathy on the human level. You share the suffering because it has to do with the fleetingness of form. But if that is the only level that operates in you, you haven't gone beyond suffering.
Eckhart TolleWhen you are present, when your attention is fully and intensely in the Now, Being can be felt, but it can never be understood mentally.
Eckhart TolleSilence is helpful, but you don't need it in order to find stillness. Even when there is noise, you can be aware of the stillness underneath the noise, of the space in which the noise arises. That is the inner space of pure awareness, consciousness itself.
Eckhart TolleDeath means that a form of life dissolves or that the imminent possibility of dissolution exists, whether through our own death or through illness or old age.
