You Are Stillness

Stillness is your essential nature.
What is stillness?
The inner space or awareness in which the words on this screen are being perceived and become thoughts.
Without that awareness,                                                                  there would be no perception, no thoughts, no world.
You are that awareness, disguised as a person.

-Eckhart Tolle
