Eckhart Tolle Quotes about Practice

  • Feeling will get you closer to the truth of who you are than thinking. I cannot tell you anything that deep within you don't already know. When you have reached a certain stage of inner connectedness, you recognize the truth when you hear it. If you haven't reached that stage yet, the practice of body awareness will bring about the deepening that is necessary.
  • Practice presence -- embrace the place where life happens.
  • Here is a new spiritual practice for you: don't take your thoughts too seriously.
  • 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.
