The ego doesn't know that the source of all energy is within you, so it seeks it outside.
Eckhart TolleUnderneath your physical and psychological form, you are one with Life itself, one with Being.
Eckhart TolleMemories are thoughts that arise. They're not realities. Only when you believe that they are real, then they have the power over you. But when you realize it's just another thought arising about the past, then you can have a spacious relationship with that thought. The thought no longer has you in its grip.
Eckhart Tolle
