An enlightened person or business is not concerned primarily with making money, because when you are concerned with making money you want the future more than the present. Whenever you want the future more than you want the present, true intelligence cannot flow into what you do, because it can do so only when you are totally aligned with the present moment.
Eckhart TolleFor spiritual teachers, it is important not to identify with the image people inevitably have of them.
Eckhart TolleYou can always cope with the present moment, but you cannot cope with something that is only a mind projection - you cannot cope with the future.
Eckhart TolleI am not my thoughts, emotions, sense perceptions, and experiences. I am not the content of my life. I am Life. I am the space in which all things happen. I am consciousness. I am the Now. I Am.
Eckhart TolleThings and conditions can give you pleasure but they cannot give you joy- joy arises from within.
Eckhart Tolle
