Tolle Quote of the Day

 "When you talk in The New Earth about the flowering of consciousness.  How strongly do you feel that movement happening around the world? Do you witness it? Do you see it?" Sir Ken Robinson

"Yes, it's definitely happening, whether it is happening fast enough to prevent a collapse of the civilization, whether that is even desirable that the civilization should not collapse, I don't know. It may have to collapse. But definitely there is an awakening. The strange thing is I can almost tell you, by looking at any human being in the street, who is already beginning to go thru the awakening process and who is not yet. I'm not always right, but a lot of the time I can tell, just by looking at a human, just for a few seconds. Because there is a light that comes thru, that isn't there in those humans who are still totally trapped in their conceptual mind. And that's the awakening. The disidentification from the conceptual mind and the arising of presence. It's happening on a much larger scale than ever, for the first time on a large scale. It still of course, is a minority of the total population of the planet. Definitely. It's even a minority in the Western countries. I cannot even tell you what the percentage is of, like say, in North America or in Western Europe who are going thru the awakening process. But my intuitive guess is something like..." (and here I thought Eckhart was going to say less than 1%) "...20%, which is quite a lot of people."
