你的内在目的是觉醒，就那么简单，这一点跟地球上的其他人是相通的，因为这是全人类共同的目的。你的内在目的是整个目的、全宇宙的目的及新兴智能的目的的基本组成部分。你的外在目的可能随时间推移而改变，人们的外在目的各不相同。找到并遵循内在目的是实现你外在目的的基础，是真正成功的基石。

Book: Oneness With All Life: Inspirational Selections From A New Earth The first thing I noticed about Eckhart Tolle's Oneness with All Life: Inspirational Selections from a New Earth, is that it is a beautifully bound hard cover book (ribbon bookmark included,)with an old-time feel. The inside is beautifully laid out with flower illustrations. It actually conveys a feeling of peacefulness to hold the book. "Your inner purpose is to awaken," says Tolle. This is the essence of the book, and what my own spiritual teacher tries to instill in her students. Each chapter works on this lofty spiritual plane. Tolle recommends that you read A New Earth before Oneness with all Life, as this book is a distilled version of the first and contains fairly advanced spiritual lessons. He suggests reading a random section or single chapter at a time. The point is to read, reflect, and allow the messages to resonate within your soul. "The informational content of this book is of relatively little importance," he writes. "You read it not so much to learn something new, but to go deeper, become more present, awaken out of the stream of incessant and compulsive thinking." This sums up the book for me: "If you come across passages in this book that you feel are powerful, I want you to realize that what you are feeling is your own spiritual power. That is to say you are in your essence."
