God is not a personality outside of you. What God is, is inextricably part of what you are. God is the dimension of depth within you.
Eckhart TolleIt is much more likely that help comes in when what you are doing is done while you are in a state of inner peace, rather than resistance.
Eckhart TolleSome form of suffering often brings about a readiness. One can say it cracks open the shell of the egoic mind with which many people identify as "me." Life cracks open that shell, and once that crack is there, then we are reached more easily by spiritual teaching.
Eckhart TolleScience and technology have amplified the effects of the dysfunction of the human mind in its unawakened state to such a degree that humanity, and probably the planet, would not survive for another hundred years if human consciousness remains unchanged.
