see quotes; summary; analysis.

Eckhart Tolle 1997`The Power of Now:
A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment
quotes:
“...the past gives you an identity
and the future holds the promise of salvation,
of fulfillment in whatever form.
Both are illusions.”
"Unease, anxiety, tension, stress, worry - all forms of fear -
are caused by too much future, and not enough presence.
Guilt, regret, resentment, grievances, sadness, bitterness,
and all forms of non-forgiveness
are caused by too much past, and not enough presence.”
“As soon as you honor the present moment,
all unhappiness and struggle dissolve,
and life begins to flow with joy and ease.
When you act out the present-moment awareness,
whatever you do becomes imbued with a sense of
quality, care, and love
- even the most simple action.”
“Don't look for any other state
than the one you are in now;
otherwise, you will set up inner conflict
and unconscious resistance.
Forgive yourself for not being at peace.
The moment you completely accept your non-peace,
your non-peace becomes transmuted into peace.
Anything you accept fully will get you there,
will take you into peace.
This is the miracle of surrender”.
"Become aware not only of the emotional pain
but also of 'the one who observes,'
the silent watcher.
This is the power of the Now,
the power of your own conscious presence.
Then see what happens.”
“If you get the inside right,
the outside will fall into place.
Primary reality is within;
secondary reality without.”

quotes from Practicing the Power of Now:
“The beginning of freedom is the realization
that you are not 'the thinker'.
The moment you start watching the thinker,
a higher level of consciousness
becomes activated.
You then begin to realize that there is
a vast realm of intelligence beyond thought,
that thought is only a tiny aspect
of that intelligence.
You also realize that all the things that
truly matter
– beauty, love, creativity, joy, inner peace
– arise from beyond the mind.
You begin to awaken.”

quotes:
“You become what you think about most..
But you also attract what you think about most.
(John Assaraf) ”
"And when people start focusing on what they want,
what they don’t want falls away,
and what they want expands,
and the other part disappears. (Jack Canfield)"
"It is impossible to bring more into your life
if you are feeling ungrateful about what you have."
“Remember that your thoughts are
the primary cause of everything.”
“Whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer,
believing, ye shall receive.” Matthew 21:22”
“Your power is in your thoughts, so stay awake.
In other words, remember to remember.”
“The truth is that the universe has been
answering you all of your life,
but you cannot receive the answers
unless you are awake.”
