Right now we are being given the experience we need to raise our consciousness. - Eckhart Tolle

The interconnectedness of all things: Buddhists have always known it and physicists now confirm it. Nothing that happens is an isolated event, it only appears to be. The more we judge and label it, the more we isolate it.

Try to catch the voice in your head, in the very moment it complains about something. Recognise it for what it is: the voice of the ego, no more than a thought.

When you recognize this, you also realize that you are now free to give up this futile conflict, this inner state of war. (Ch 6)
