On Sat Jan 2 (11am) and Wed Jan 13 (6:30pm) the SEW Book club is reading A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle River Read Books, downtown Binghamton. On Court St, along the riverwalk. |
Here is a sample of some of Eckhart's teachings:
If you surrender to the now,
you will become free.
It's like fighting the Borg:
"Resistance is futile!"
We resist because we think this will make things better.
But this strategy seems to always fail.
Things only seem to get worse.
Most people underestimate the fullness of the Now,
the transformative power of the Now.
Whatever happens in the world of form,
just accept it.
Time is an illusion.
Most people believe time is filled with many moments,
but this is not so.
There is always: only the Now (Tao):
it's form is always changing.
By surrendering fully to the world of form,
you go beyond form
you will become free.
