Eckhart Tolle: Essential Teachings

CHAPTER

The Essence of the Teaching Is the Present Moment

You have to invite the present moment into your life as frequently as you can. It's only when you make room for the present moment that these images and mental concepts about who you are do not operate. The key is here, another word for presence is the alertness. Andso become alert also within. You feel the aliveness of your inner body. Rather than having a mental concept of who you are, you feel the entire energy field,. That which animates the physical form, and yet are in touch with that. So it's really finding within yourself something that is more powerful, more genuine, more truly who you are than any image that you have in your mind.
