Many people are so imprisoned in their minds that the beauty of nature does not really exist for them. They might say, 'What a pretty flower,' but that's just a mechanical mental labeling. Because they are not still, not present, they don't truly see the flower, don't feel it's essence, it's holiness-just as they don't know themselves, don't feel their own essence, their own holiness.
Eckhart TolleTo the ego, loving and wanting are the same, whereas true love has no wanting in it, no desire to possess or for your partner to change.
Eckhart TolleYou are here to enable the divine purpose of the Universe to unfold. That is how important you are!
Eckhart TolleThe false self lives mainly through memory and anticipation. Past and future are its main preoccupation.
