Some 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 TolleAccept the present moment and find the perfection that is deeper than any form and untouched by time.
Eckhart TolleBeing is central, and Being is now. The fulfillment of your life is not going to happen through anything. The outer activities in your life are secondary. What is Primary is Being.
Eckhart TolleThe quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future โ which, of course, can only be experienced as the Now
