Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Eckhart Tolle is rapidly emerging as one of the world’s most inspiring spiritual teachers, sharing the enlightenment he himself experienced after a startling personal transformation. His views go beyond any particular religion, doctrine, or guru. This book extracts the essence from his teachings in The Power of Now, showing us how to free ourselves from “enslavement to the mind.” The aim is to be able to enter into and sustain an awakened state of consciousness throughout everyday life. Through meditations and simple techniques, Eckhart shows us how to quiet our thoughts, see the world in the present moment, and find a path to “a life of grace, ease, and lightness.”

Review:

This book will change your life forever! Read it or listen to it over and over again. The power that comes from accepting what is is immeasurable. Anything by Tolle is good, but this is a good place to start because it's short and presents all of the practical knowledge anyone needs to become one with all that is. From that point you can do anything you want and be at peace doing it all. Real change can happen in the world if everyone exposes themselves to these teachings.
