Be still and know that I am God. Most people have heard that line. Very few have looked at it closely, and every word in it is doing something specific. Be still. Not quiet externally, but the stillness underneath thinking, where the constant commentary drops away for a moment. Eckhart Tolle points out that for most people there is no gap at all between one thought and the next, which means no rest, ever, in a lifetime of thinking. Know. Not think. A knowing that does not arrive through reasoning, and that cannot be reached by adding more thought. I am. Not the person with your name and history. The deeper sense of being that is there before any description of yourself gets attached to it. God. The dimension of the divine that this points toward, which he is careful about, since the word so easily turns into an entity somewhere. Read that way, the sentence stops being an instruction to feel reverent and becomes something closer to directions. Which fits what Jesus said too, that the kingdom of heaven is within you. Not a location you travel to. A state of consciousness available where you already are, if the noise drops for long enough to notice it. Eckhart goes much further into this in the full session.
