"In you, as in each human being,..." - Quote by Eckhart Tolle
In you, as in each human being, there is a dimension of consciousness far deeper than thought. It is the very essence of who you are. We may call it presence, awareness, the unconditioned consciousness.

“Only when you've truly had enough suffering in your life, are you able to say ' I don't need it anymore'.”
“You can still achieve certain things through effort, struggle, determination, and sheer hard work or cunning. But there is no joy in such endeavor, and it invariably ends in some form of suffering.”
“Wisdom comes with the ability to be still. Just look and listen. No more is needed.”

“How we experience memory sometimes, it's not linear. We're not telling the stories to ourselves. We know the story; we're just seeing it in flashes overlaid.”
“The real truths of life are never entirely new to you or to anybody because there is a level deep down within you where you already know all the things, all those spiritual truths that you read or hear, and then recognize them. I say 'recognize' because you're not... it's not new.”
“It is the stillness that will save and transform the world.”
More on Awareness
“The thinking mind can be so noisy that it cannot relate to stillness. It doesn't even recognize it and certainly can't remember it.”
“The realm of consciousness is much vaster than thought can grasp. When you no longer believe everything you think, you step out of thought and see clearly that the thinker is not who you are.”
“Awareness and ego cannot coexist.”
