Editorial Review: Amazon.com Review: Ekhart Tolle's message is simple: living in the now is the truest path to happiness and enlightenment. And while this message may not seem stunningly original or fresh, Tolle's clear writing, supportive voice, and enthusiasm make this an excellent manual for anyone who's ever wondered what exactly "living in the now" means. Foremost, Tolle is a world-class teacher, able to explain complicated concepts in concrete language. More importantly, within a chapter of reading this book, readers are already holding the world in a different container--more conscious of how thoughts and emotions get in the way of their ability to live in genuine peace and happiness. Tolle packs a lot of information and inspirational ideas into The Power of Now. (Topics include the source of Chi, enlightened relationships, creative use of the mind, impermanence, and the cycle of life.) Thankfully, he's added markers that symbolize "break time." This is when readers should close the book and mull over what they just read. As a result, The Power of Now reads like the highly acclaimed A Course in Miracles--a spiritual guidebook that has the potential to inspire just as many study groups and change just as many lives for the better. --Gail Hudson Product Description: Now on CD, the best-selling Power of Now shows how a combination of Buddhist principles, meditation theory, and relaxation techniques can connect a person to “the eternal, ever-present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are subject to birth and death.” “A reminder to be truly present in our own lives.... The result? More joy, right now.” — O: The Oprah Magazine Average Rating:
 Rating:  - My Personal Experience with the Message of this BookI am a middle-aged professional with a academic background in philosophy. As I grew older, I felt more strongly that there must be a spiritual realm to our existence. But I was relegated to the thought that this spiritual realm was something that would probably go unanswered for the rest of my life. At times, I would have more spiritual feelings and sensations which reinforced this belief, but still felt that my belief of the spiritual real would be faith based and could never go ...

All I can say is THANK YOU VERY MUCH OPRAH. Excellent book teaching you how to live in the now. The best book I have ever read that exposes the false self (EGO) and how the primary job of the ego is to take your happiness away and create all kinds of problems every day. Here's the ego's program that it is running to justify it's existance "Never Satisfied" No matter how a situation turns out, ... Read More Rating:  - Waste of Money....Compiled from various sources.......and it's not even the "best of", sort of reference. My thoughts are, that this guy is potentially a cult figure, with followers who are grabbing at straws. I can't imagine what Oprah was thinking. Her original spiritual strengths, were strong enough to take her, further than most people can imagine going. 2-stars is over-rating his books...in my book. My concern: Charlatans, exploiting those who may be needing real help. Rating: - 20080921 REVIEWVery useful for me. I was sure that this book will be what I want, before buying it. And it is. Many thanks to the author. Rating: - If You Are Ready to Learn, This is Great Guide to EnlightenmentNo matter if you're religious, spiritual, or neither, Tolle's gift to the world is this book and it should be read before one dies (sooner rather than later, if you really want to improve your life). Westerners are especially poor at living in the now...we have no examples or teachers of this in Western society -- or few, at best. Until one discovers how to live in the moment (this will take much practice and re-reading or re-listening to Tolle), life is either anxiety- or depression-ridden, or we are ... Read More |
