Eckhart's greatest quote

Quote:
"In my book The Power of Now, I mention ways in which you can maintain present moment awareness,

but the main thing is to allow this new state of consciousness to emerge rather than believe that you have to try hard to make it happen.

How do you allow it to emerge?
...
Simply by allowing this moment to be as it is.

This means to relinquish inner resistance to what is – the suchness of now.

This allows life to unfold beautifully.

There is no greater spiritual practice than this."

~Eckhart Tolle

this quote is wonderful to help you realize the most important thing of all

you don't need to do anything to be what you already are

and full acceptance or surrender to what is, is the way to go

but none of this is really true

because true liberation is being free of ALL ideas, including all the ones i posted here

ideas or thoughts about how to make your life better, or what direction your life should take... are just that... just ideas...

No your not preaching at all, you are only stating what Is, the ego just doesn't want to hear what you are sharing. There is no one who can ever get this, its when their not there to get it that it is there to be Known.
