Nothing has happened in the past; it happened in the Now. Nothing will ever happen in the future; it will happen in the Now.
Eckhart TolleBy learning to accept the small things immediately as they happen, you can be free of having to react to things at all. You still can respond when action is needed, but you can be free, internally, of events.
Eckhart TolleConsciousness is not personal. Human consciousness is just an expression of universal consciousness, which pervades the entire universe.
Eckhart TolleAs a child, a person builds up an egoic sense - the child has a name, has an "I," has a mind. But then, to awaken, a person needs to completely transcend that sense of ego.
