Can We Trust Our Feelings and Intuition?
Eckhart Tolle・2 minutes read
Trusting and acting on feelings can lead to misunderstandings and incorrect actions, while intuition arising from presence offers clarity and peace. Avoiding reactive, ego-driven responses simplifies interactions, prevents conflict, and promotes resolution and peace.
Insights
- Trusting feelings is cautioned against; instead, feelings should be acknowledged and observed without being taken as absolute truth or a guide for action.
- Intuition, devoid of negativity like fear or anger, emerges from presence and offers a serene certainty, distinct from conditioned feelings, simplifying interactions and preventing unnecessary conflict by refraining from ego-driven responses and narratives.
