THOUGHT -ECKHART TOLLE
“The human condition: lost in thought.”
“Defining yourself through thought is limiting yourself.”
“I am not my thoughts, emotions, sense perceptions, and experiences. I am not the content of my life. I am Life. I am the space in which all things happen. I am consciousness.”
“We get lost in doing, thinking, remembering, anticipating – lost in a maze of complexity and a world of problems.”
“Observe your thoughts, don’t believe them.”
“The primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but thought about it.”
“Much suffering, much unhappiness arises when you take each thought that comes into your head for the truth.”
“Thinking is only a small aspect of consciousness. Thought cannot exist without consciousness, but consciousness does not need thought.”
“Thinking is no more than a tiny aspect of the totality of consciousness, the totality of who you are.”
“Be the silent watcher of your thoughts and behavior. You are beneath the thinker. You are the stillness beneath the mental noise. You are the love and joy beneath the pain.”
-Eckhart Tolle
