What could be heavier and more impenetrable than a rock, the densest of all forms? And yet some rocks undergo a change in their molecular structure, turn into crystals, and so become transparent to the light.
Eckhart TolleWhenever you are engaged in something and there is an outpouring of energy, you are in enthusiasm.
Eckhart TolleAll cravings are the mind seeking salvation or fulfillment in external things and in the future as a substitute for the joy of Being.
Eckhart TolleWhen you are suffering, when you are unhappy, stay totally with what is Now. Unhappiness or problems cannot survive in the Now.
Eckhart TolleBefore I wrote The Power of Now, I had a vision that I had already written the book and that it was affecting the world. I had a sense there was already a book somehow in existence. I drew a circle on a piece of paper and it said "book." Then I wrote something about the effect the book had on the world, how it influenced my life and other people's lives, and how it came to be translated into many languages affecting hundreds of thousands of people.
