This is love - Tolle - EN

SELF-DEVELOPMENT THROUGH PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY

"In the stillness of your presence, you can feel your own formless and timeless reality as the unmanifested life that animates your physical form. You can then feel the same life deep within every other human and every other creature. You look beyond the veil of form and separation. This is the realization of oneness. This is love."

Eckhart Tolle

Epicurus
"He who is contented is rich."
Lao Tzu
"Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you."
Golden Rule
"Generosity is not giving me that which I need more than you do, but it is giving me that which you need more than I do."
Khalil Gibran
"We do not need to go out and find love; rather, we need to be still and let love discover us."
John O'Donohue
"We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves."
Buddha
"The answer is, who you are cannot be defined through thinking or mental labels or definitions, because it's beyond that. It is the very sense of being, or presence, that is there when you become conscious of the present moment. In essence, you and what we call the present moment are, at the deepest level, one."
Eckhart Tolle
"A person who is not disturbed by the incessant flow of desires can alone achieve peace, and not the man who strives to satisfy such desires."
Bhagavad Gita
"The more man meditates upon good thoughts, the better will be his world and the world at large."
Confucius
"Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony."
Mahatma Ghandi
"We do not need to go out and find love; rather, we need to be still and let love discover us."
John O'Donohue
"Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them - that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like."
Lao Tzu
"Boredom, anger, sadness, or fear are not 'yours,' not personal. They are conditions of the human mind. They come and go. Nothing that comes and goes is you."
Eckhart Tolle
"Service which is rendered without joy helps neither the servant nor the served. But all other pleasures and possessions pale into nothingness before service which is rendered in a spirit of joy."
Mahatma Ghandi
"For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
