The unchecked striving for more, for endless growth, is a dysfunction and a disease. It is the same dysfunction the cancerous cell manifests, whose only goal is to multiply itself, unaware that it is bringing about its own destruction by destroying the organism of which it is a part.
Eckhart TolleHonoring the moment is honoring every human being you meet. The only place where you can meet them is in the moment.
Eckhart TolleNothing that you plan is going to work out. Everything is going to be totally different than the way you expected. And things will constantly challenge you. Wherever you look the world is not as solid it seems to be.
Eckhart TolleWhatever you think people are withholding from you-praise, appreciation, assistance, loving care, and so on-give it to them.
Eckhart TolleThroughout history humans have inflicted countless violent, cruel, and hurtful acts on each other, and continue to do so. Are they all to be condemned; are they all guilty? Or are those acts simply expressions of unconsciousness, an evolutionary stage that we are now growing out of? Jesusโ words, โForgive them for they do not know what they do,โ also apply to yourself.
