Focus your mind on ‘I am’, which is pure and simple being. You are Here and Now only. Contemplate what it is to be fully ‘Here’ and fully ‘Now’. For this you must leave all else; stay only as here-now. Conscious presence. This is Being. This is Reality.
How to be at peace now? By making peace with the present moment. The present moment is the field on which the game of life happens. It cannot happen anywhere else. – Eckhart Tolle
Everybody wants freedom as far as talking is concerned, but nobody really is free and nobody wants to be free, because freedom brings responsibility. – Osho
The seed that makes the man is the same seed that makes the universe. When man discovers himself he had discovered the mystery of the universe as well. Naturally there is harmony.
Balance is the highest peace possible, because when two things balance, outer and inner, activity and passivity, suddenly you transcend them both. When they both balance you are no longer this, no longer that. Suddenly you are the third force, the onlooker, the witness.
If you are too serious about everything, you will only know thoughts and emotions. You will not know life. – Sadhguru
The more you are thankful, the more you attract things to be thankful for.
It may look as if the situation is creating the suffering, but ultimately this is not so – your resistance is. – Eckhart Tolle
Use your senses fully. Be where you are. Look around. Just look, don’t interpret. See the light, shapes, colors, textures. Be aware of the silent presence of each thing. Be aware of the space that allows everything to be. Listen to the sounds; don’t judge them. Listen to the silence underneath the sounds. Touch something – anything – and feel and acknowledge its Being. Observe the rhythm of your breathing, feel de air flowing in and out, feel the life energy inside your body. Allow everything to be, within and without. Allow the “isness” of all things. Move deeply into the Now. (Eckhart Tolle – The Power of Now)
To offer no resistance to life is to be in a state of grace, ease, and lightness. This state is then no longer dependent upon things being in a certain way, good or bad. It seems almost paradoxical, yet when your inner dependency on form is gone, the general conditions of your life, the outer forms, tend to improve greatly. – Eckhart Tolle
