Thought subsides when you pet your dog or you have a purring cat on your chest. Even just watching an animal can take you out of your mind. It is more deeply connected with the source of life than most humans, and that rootedness in Being transmits itself to you. Millions of people who otherwise would be completely lost in the conceptual reality of their mind are kept sane by living with an animal.
Eckhart TolleSurrender is the simple but profound wisdom of yielding to rather than opposing the flow of life.
Eckhart TolleYou can only lose something that you have, but you cannot lose something that you are.
Eckhart Tolle
