Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever
have. Make the Now the primary focus of your life. Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now The Power of Now is a must for every library! It is a powerful eye-opener to our habit of chronically living in the past (regret) and the future (worry). Living in the now takes discipline and practice, but is well worth the effort. We are always making judgments about time. I'm early, it's late, time flies, there's not enough time. We even let time dictate our beliefs. If it's midnight, I must be getting tired. If it's five in the morning, it's too early to get up. If it's 6 P.M., I must be getting hungry. Time is our measure of outer world events. There is actually no time in the spiritual dimension. Have you experience timelessness? You get involved in doing some- thing you love and the time passes unnoticed. The only time we truly experience life is in this moment right now. Our thoughts and beliefs today determine our experiences tomorrow. Decisions you make now determine your future. Let go of the past and don't worry about the future. |
