Eckhart Tolle

Enlightenment means choosing to dwell in a state of presence rather than in time. It means saying yes to what is.

Eckhart Tolle

Enlightenment means rising above thought, not falling back to a level below thought, the level of an animal or a plant. In the enlightened state, you still use your thinking mind when needed, but in a much more focused and effective way than before.

Eckhart Tolle

Enthusiasm cannot be a continuous state. It comes in waves.

Eckhart Tolle

Even if they don’t know it consciously, people can feel when you are making them into a means to an end only. And people are much less likely to do what you want them to do – for example, to buy the car – when they feel you are reducing them into a means to an end.

Eckhart Tolle

Even when the sky is heavily overcast, the sun hasn’t disappeared. It’s still there on the other side of the clouds.

Eckhart Tolle

Even within the seemingly most unacceptable and painful situation is concealed a deeper good, and within every disaster is contained the seed of grace.

Eckhart Tolle

Every addiction starts with pain and ends with pain.

Eckhart Tolle

Every challenge is a disguised opportunity for salvation.

Eckhart Tolle

Every complaint is a little story the mind makes up that you completely believe in.

Eckhart Tolle

Everything flows with much greater ease when people live as one with the present moment.
