When the movie comes to an end, you are not totally the same person you are when you started the movie.
Eckhart TolleHumans 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 TolleI know that at the core of each religion there is the truth, heavily obscured in some cases, but it's there.
Eckhart TolleWhen you complain, you make yourself a victim. Leave the situation, change the situation or accept it, all else is madness.
Eckhart TolleWatch any plant or animal and let it teach you acceptance of what is, surrender to the Now. Let it teach you Being. Let it teach you integrity — which means to be one, to be yourself, to be real. Let it teach you how to live and how to die, and how not to make living and dying into a problem.
Eckhart TolleThe difference between you, if you consider yourself not enlightened, and an enlightened master is not that the enlightened master has more knowledge. University professors have knowledge, and many enlightened masters have very little knowledge. Jesus probably had less knowledge than any university professor alive today in terms of raw information. Even a relatively uneducated person has more information than Jesus or Buddha ever had about things, such as political things and so on.
