"For the ego to survive, it must..." - Quote by Eckhart Tolle

“Seek out a tree and let it teach you stillness.”

“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.”

“The most common ego identifications have to do with possessions, the work you do, social status and recognition, knowledge and education, physical appearance, special abilities, relationships, person and family history, belief systems, and often nationalistic, racial, religious, and other collective identifications. None of these is you.”

“Out of Mahat comes universal egoism.”

“I could easily forgive his pride, if he had not mortified mine.”

“The ego is not only the unobserved mind, the voice in the head which pretends to be you, but also the unobserved emotions that are the body's reaction to what the voice in the head is saying.”

“What's to come is still unsure: In delay there lies no plenty; Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty, Youth's a stuff will not endure.”

“Every attempt to solve the laws of causation, time, and space would be futile, because the very attempt would have to be made by taking for granted the existence of these three.”

“My hunger serves me instead of a clock.”
