PRAYER OF ST FRANCIS

ECKHART TOLLE QUOTES

"When you lose touch with inner stillness, you lose touch with yourself. When you lose touch with yourself, you lose yourself in the world. Your innermost sense of self, of who you are, is inseparable from stillness. This is the I Am that is deeper than name and form."

"The Truth is far more all-encompassing than the mind could ever comprehend. No thought can encapsulate the Truth. At best, it can point to it. For example, it can say: "All things are intrinsically one." That is a pointer, not an explanation. Understanding these words means feeling deep within you the truth to which they point."

"Beyond the beauty of external forms, there is more here: something that cannot be named, something ineffable, some deep, inner, holy essence. Whenever and wherever there is beauty, this inner essence shines through somehow. It only reveals itself to you when you are present."

"Nothing that comes and goes is you.
You are the knowing, not the condition that is known."

Stillness Speaks

"Death is a stripping away of all that is not you. The secret of life is to "die before you die" --- and find that there is no death."

"As long as you are unable to access the power of the Now, every emotional pain that you experience leaves behind a residue of pain that lives on in you."

"I cannot tell you any spiritual truth that deep within you don't know already. All I can do is remind you of what you have forgotten".

"Pleasure is always derived from something outside you, whereas joy arises from within"

The Power of Now

QUOTES

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?'

Actually, who are you NOT to be?
You are a child of God; your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so others won't feel insecure around you.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in EVERYONE.

And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

~Marianne Williamson
