The greater part of human pain is unnecessary. It is self-created as long as the unobserved mind runs your life.
Eckhart TolleThe only thing that is ultimately real about your journey is the step that you are taking at this moment. That's all there ever is.
Eckhart TolleA culture that denies death inevitably becomes shallow and superficial, concerned only with the external form of things. When death is denied, life loses its depth.
Eckhart TolleMany people live with a tormentor in their head that continuously attacks and punishes them and drains them of vital energy. It is the cause of untold misery and unhappiness, as well as of disease.
Eckhart TolleInner resistance to whatever arises in the present moment pulls you back into unconsciousness. Inner resistance is some form of negativity, complaining, fear, aggression, or anger. This is important because whenever you complain about what somebody else does you're already beginning to fall into that trap of unconsciousness.
