“Every thought pretends that it matters so much, it wants to draw your attention completely. Don’t take your thoughts too seriously.”
“You are pure awareness disguised as a person.”
“The mind exists in a state of “not enough” and so is always greedy for more. When you are identified with the mind you get bored and restless very easily.”
“Life is happening on its own. Can you let it be?”
The essence of Eckhart Tolle’s teaching is to let life be, to simply let things happen around you instead of trying to manipulate and control life. As it happens, life is full of goodness and well-being, and you get to experience it’s joy when you let go of the resistance created by holding onto thoughts.
