When you want to arrive at your goal more than you want to be doing what you are doing, you become stressed.
Eckhart TolleWhat a liberation to realize that the 'voice in my head' is not who I am. 'Who am I, then?' The one who sees that.
Eckhart TolleIn the world of form, everything changes and evolves. So, there was a certain evolution of the teaching. Different pointers came in, different stories, different approaches to the truth, which always is the same.
Eckhart TolleThe pain-body wants to survive, just like every other entity in existence, and it can only survive if it gets you to unconsciously identify with it.
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.
