To be conscious of Being, you need to reclaim consciousness from the mind. This is one of the most essential tasks on your spiritual journey.
Eckhart TolleNo matter how long your journey appears to be, there is never more than this: one step, one breath, one moment... Now.
Eckhart TolleBy watching the mechanics of the mind, you step out of its resistance patterns, and you can then allow the present moment to be.
Eckhart TolleAll you can do is create a space for transformation to happen, for grace and love to enter.
Eckhart TolleIf spacious stillness is missing, the relationship will be dominated by the mind and can easily be taken over by problems and conflict. If stillness is there, it can contain anything.
Eckhart TolleCan you feel that there is something in you that is at war, something that feels threatened and wants to survive at all cost, that needs the drama in order to assert its identity as the victorious character within that theatrical production? Can you feel there is something in you that would rather be right than at peace?
