Humans have been in the grip of pain for eons, ever since they fell from the state of grace, entered the realm of time and mind, and lost awareness of Being. At that point, they started to perceive themselves as meaningless fragments in an alien universe, unconnected to the Source and to each other.
Eckhart TolleNeither God nor Being nor any other word can define or explain the ineffable reality behind the word, so the only important question is whether the word is a help or a hindrance in enabling you to experience That toward which it points.
Eckhart TolleHow do you let go of attachment to things? Donโt even try. Itโs impossible. Attachment to things drops away by itself when you no longer seek to find yourself in them.
Eckhart TolleIf there are people you haven't forgiven, you're not going to really awaken. You have to let go.
Eckhart TolleAsk yourself what problem you have right now. Not next year, tomorrow or five minutes from now. You can always cope with the now, but you can never cope with the future. Nor do you have to. The answer, the strength and the right action will be there when you need it. Not before or after.
Eckhart Tolle
