Enjoying The New Earth

[Oceana]

I love the fact that Ms O and Eckhart Tolle are having the authentic conversation that they are on the world wide web! www.oprah.com Even if you don't read the book, you can listen to the broadcast. Rock stars are usually the ones to break the taboos in mainstream media. I would say they are breaking thru mediocrity with much grace and elegance while being their natural selves. I love it!

Here are my favorite quotes from The New Earth so far:

"The first recognition of beauty was one of the most significant events in the evolution of human consciousness. The feelings of joy and love are intrinsically connected to that recognition. Without our fully realizing it, flowers would become for us an expression in form of that which is most high, most sacred and ultimately formless within ourselves". (p.2)

"Once there is a certain degree of Presence, of still and alert attention in human beings' perceptions, they can sense the divine life essence, the one indwelling consciousness or spirit in every creature, every life-form, recognize it as one with their own essence and so love it as themselves". (p. 4)

"No matter what you body's apearance is on the outer level, beyond the outer form it is an intensely alive energy field." (p.52)

"Even a stone, and more easily a flower or a bird, could show you the way back to God, to the source, to yourself." (p.26)

"When every thought absorbs your attention completely, when you are so identified the voice in your head and the emotions that accompany it that you lose yourself in every thought and every emotion, then you are totally identified with form and therefore in the grip of ego." (p.54)

"When you know you are dreaming, you are awake within the dream." (p.55)

Alexander! Hi. Yes, it is worth the read AND you already resonate and know most of it ~ I know this from what I know of you on ning. Tolle adds to the recognition that when we love the earth and it's creatures as we love ourselves ~ we are in that sacred peaceful place where all is well. There is only ONE of us ~ I hear quite often lately!!!!!!!! I am only on a few ning sites as I am focusing on reading and writing right now. I appreciate what you are doing with your site.....it is very informative and your spirit and hard work shine thru it! Thank you for posting the link.
I have it saved to favorites and will explore more.
Infinite Peace & Love to you!
