Eckhart Tolle
Eckhart TolleFear has many causes; fear of loss, of failure, of being hurt but ultimately all fear is the ego's fear of death, of annihilation.
Forgiveness is recognizing the insubstantiality of the past and allowing the present moment to be as it is, the miracle of transformation happens not only within but also without.
Forgiveness happens naturally when you see that it has no purpose other than to strengthen a false sense of self, to keep the ego in place.
Love is a state of being. Your love is not outside... it is deep within you. You can never lose it, and it cannot leave you. It is not dependent on some other body, some external form.
The Present is that in which the power for creating a better future is contained: one creates a good future by creating a good present.
Thinking is a wonderful tool if it's applied. Thinking, however, can not become the master. Thinking is a very bad master. If you're dominated by thinking then your life becomes very restricted.
