Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
Buddha
The future is keeping you out of the present time.
Van Morrison
The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time.
Abraham Lincoln
Most people treat the present moment as if it were an obstacle that they need to overcome. Since the present moment is Life itself, it is an insane way to live.
Eckhart Tolle
The present moment has always been available to spiritual seekers, but as long as you are seeking you are not available to the present moment. "Seeking" implies that you are looking to the future for some answer, or for some achievement, spiritual or otherwise. Everybody is in the seeking mode, seeking to add something to who they are, whether it be money, relationships, possessions, knowledge, status.. or spiritual attainment.
Eckhart Tolle
True salvation is freedom from negativity, and above all from past and future as a psychological need.
Eckhart Tolle
