Things and conditions can give you pleasure but they cannot give you joy- joy arises from within.

Happiness, Attitude, Giving

Do not pollute your beautiful, radiant Being nor the Earth with negativity. Do not give unhappiness in any form whatsoever a dwelling place inside you.

Beautiful, Dwelling Place, Giving

Eckhart Tolle (2010). “The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment”, p.213, New World Library

To be identified with your mind is to be trapped in time: the compulsion to live almost exclusively through memory and anticipation. This creates an endless preoccupation with past and future and an unwillingness to honor and acknowledge the present moment and allow it to be. The compulsion arises because the past gives you an identity and the future holds the promise of salvation, of fulfillment in whatever form. Both are illusions.

Memories, Past, Giving

Eckhart Tolle (2001). “Practicing the Power of Now: Essential Teachings, Meditations, and Exercises from the Power of Now”, p.31, New World Library

A true spiritual teacher does not have anything to teach in the conventional sense of the word, does not have anything to give or add to you, such as new information, beliefs, or rules of conduct. The only function of such a teacher is to help you remove that which separates you from the truth of who you already are and what you already know in the depth of your being

Spiritual, Teacher, Giving

Eckhart Tolle (2010). “Stillness Speaks”, p.9, New World Library

Surrender becomes so much easier when you realize the fleeting nature of all experiences and that the world cannot give you anything of lasting value. You then continue to meet people, to be involved in experience and activities, but without the wants and fears of the egoic self. That is to say, you no longer demand that a situation, person, place, or event should satisfy you or make you happy. It's passing and imperfect nature is allowed to be.

Self, People, Giving

"Stillness Speaks". Book by Eckhart Tolle, August 26, 2003.

So do not be concerned with the fruit of your action-just give attention to the action itself. The fruit will come of its own accord.

You cannot give your full attention to something, and at the same time resist it.

Giving, Attention

It is important to realize that a large percentage of what we hear or see on the news focuses on those places where there is violent conflict...It gives us a slightly or very distorted view of what is going on because there are many other parts of the planet where there is no violent conflict, but that is not on the news.

Views, Giving, Important

FaceBook post by Eckhart Tolle from Apr 24, 2015

If you really want to know your mind, the body will always give you a truthful reflection, so look at the emotion, or rather feel it in your body. If there is an apparent conflict between them, the thought will be the lie, the emotion will be the truth.

Lying, Reflection, Giving

Eckhart Tolle (2010). “The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment”, p.26, New World Library

You cannot receive what you don't give. Outflow determines inflow. Whatever you think the world is withholding from you, you already have, but unless you allow it to flow out, you won't even know that you have it. This includes abundance.

Thinking, Giving, Deep Thought

Eckhart Tolle (2006). “A New Earth (Oprah #61): Awakening to Your Life's Purpose”, p.146, Penguin

The future is usually imagined as either better or worse than the present. If the imagined future is better, it gives you hope or pleasurable anticipation. If it is worse, it creates anxiety. Both are illusory.

Giving, Anxiety, Anticipation

Eckhart Tolle (2001). “Practicing the Power of Now: Essential Teachings, Meditations, and Exercises from the Power of Now”, p.34, New World Library

Give yourself completely to the act of listening. Beyond the sounds there is something greater, a sacredness that cannot be understood through thought.

Giving, Listening, Sound

Eckhart Tolle (2010). “Stillness Speaks”, p.79, New World Library

When listening to another person, don't just listen with your mind, listen with your whole body. Feel the energy field of your inner body as you listen.That takes attention away from thinking and creates a still space that enables you to truly listen without the mind interfering. You are giving the other person space-space to be. It is the most precious gift you can give.

Thinking, Space, Giving

As you go about your life, don't give 100 percent of your attention to the external world and your mind. Keep some within.

Giving, Mind, Attention

You pick up the phone and you talk to somebody. There's a voice on the other end and you say what you have to say. This is how I perceive my life. I don't see myself as "Oh, I'm doing this great thing because I'm going to give this talk, now everybody's going to be transformed."

Phones, Voice, Giving

Dogmas are collective conceptual prisons. And the strange thing is that people love their prison cells because they give them a sense of security and a false sense of 'I know.' Nothing has inflicted more suffering on humanity than its dogmas.

Cells, People, Giving

Eckhart Tolle (2010). “Stillness Speaks”, p.17, New World Library

Now if a teacher gives you a practice, he or she would perhaps point out when you don't need it anymore or you realize yourself when you don't need it anymore.

The reality is there is only each present moment: You are called to give a talk. You get out of a building and into a car. You look out of the window. You arrive at the venue. You sit in the chair; you wait; you step out onto the stage. Every movement is simple. There is only that.

Simple, Reality, Giving

"The Awakening of Eckhart Tolle". Interview with Paula Coppel, www.eckharttolle.com.

In this state of inner connectedness, you are much more alert, more awake than in the mind-identified state. You are fully present. It also raises the vibrational frequency of the energy field that give life to the physical body.

Giving, Mind, Energy
