SynopsisEckhart Tolle is emerging as one of today's most inspiring teachers. In The Power of Now , already a word-of-mouth bestseller in Canada, the author describes his transition from despair to self-realization soon after his 29th birthday. Tolle took another ten years to understand this transformation, during which time he evolved a philosophy that has parallels in Buddhism, relaxation techniques, and meditation theory but is also eminently practical. In The Power of Now he shows readers how to recognize themselves as the creators of their own pain, and how to have a pain-free existence by living fully in the present. Accessing the deepest self, the true self, can be learned, he says, by freeing ourselves from the conflicting, unreasonable demands of the mind and living present, fully, and intensely, in the Now., Celebrating 25 Years as a New York Times Bestseller -- Over 16 Million Copies Sold It's no wonder that The Power of Now has sold over 16 million copies worldwide and has been translated into over 30 foreign languages. Much more than simple principles and platitudes, the book takes readers on an inspiring spiritual journey to find their true and deepest self and reach the ultimate in personal growth and spirituality: the discovery of truth and light. In the first chapter, Tolle introduces readers to enlightenment and its natural enemy, the mind. He awakens readers to their role as a creator of pain and shows them how to have a pain-free identity by living fully in the present. The journey is thrilling, and along the way, the author shows how to connect to the indestructible essence of our Being, "the eternal, ever-present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are subject to birth and death." Featuring a new preface by the author, this paperback shows that only after regaining awareness of Being, liberated from Mind and intensely in the Now, is there Enlightenment.

Be Present NOW
This is an excellent book and really concerns how to live ones life to get the most from life, NOW. The big message is to let go of the past and the future and be present now. NOW is really the only time that we have. I appreciate that the author quotes many great spiritual leaders but does not claim to be a part of any certain group or religion. Sometimes, I felt the book got a bit wordy and repetitive but I would still highly recommend it. To be able to get it on eBay at such a great price allowed me to also purchase one for my son as well as the CD set - which by the way was brand new and still in the wrapper. Both books were near perfect as well. One has 3 paragraphs highlighted in yellow marker and the other no marks whatsoever. I will be reading it again. And don't forget it's companion, A New Earth. I would read The Power of Now first. It is really is a great find on eBay!!!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A gem of a book, a wealth of information
I have read this book before. This time around I'm 'really' reading it. I'm taking each page slowly and deliberately, and allowing the words to sink in. This author, Tolle, is giving the world a true 'gem' of a book. Almost to the point of it being a sacred text. Not sacred in a religious context, but sacred as a soul level teaching tool. He is offering the reader a 'key' to opening the door to true awakening. The wealth of information is carefully and slowly revealed to the reader in a very matter-of-fact manner. His explanations are simple and pointed, going straight to the heart of the revelations. Learn what the 'NOW' truly is, and also learn how to focus on it in order to take control of your life. Being in the now is a portal connected directly to your true self. Do yourself and family a favor, and read this book.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great Book!!
great book, good insight, but if your not an intelligent person who has much experience reading, this will be a very difficult read for you! The author likes to write without repeating words, using big words, and very intellectually. You have to be able to read and understand what he has written for the book to be helpful! I love it! Would definitely recommend people read this especially alcoholics trying to get sober!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Pathway to Peace
This will always be the top of the best books I have read list. This is full of the truths concerning what make us "tick". Want some serenity in a very crazy world. World peace only comes one person at a time. The very "cool" thing is you can start on a journey of personal evolvement and it won't cost you $300.00 an hour! The formatting makes it an easy read as it is a Q&A style. The biggest drawback for a lot of people is to read with an open mind. Remember if you really want the whole package you won't get it by leafing through a few pages and deciding this isn't for me!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

The Power of Now; Life Changing; Road Map to "Meditation"... Road map to Life Change.
Eckhart Tolle's book, The Power of Now, has become so popular it is almost perceived as pop-literature (or "new age"). This is both good and bad. The good is that many people are finding the message. The bad, is that many in academia and religious communities are not recognizing its value. By its popularity, it has become almost too “pop culture.” The Power of Now’s important message runs the risk of being marginalized as a “temporary cultural phenomenon." The Power of Now's message is that many people have broken the barrier of fear and discontentment; they have rediscovered or reconnected with their deep sense of peace and joy. In our lack of understanding, we often refer to these people with terminology that may not really be accurate: "enlightened," "awakened," "mystics," "gurus," "holy," etc. These terms are too loaded and create an impression that such a state is unlikely to occur to the average person. Similarly, Christ, Buddha and Mohamed come to mind as three who have delivered monumental messages and effected history greatly. But there is a tendency to believe that these religious figures obtained peace and joy from God's grace, and we cannot. There is a misconception that we have to spend our days on earth with discontentment and suffering with the hopes to be reconnected with peace and joy upon death. The message of Tolle and so many others is that this is wrong. We can find our peace and joy and find it now. We are not discriminated against when it comes to God's Grace. Tolle aids the process of coming home to ourselves. He provides us with an age-old message and road map to achieve this. The road map is simple, yet so profound. The message is simply: we need to quiet our minds. So, how do we quiet our minds? How do we realign with ourselves? How do we take off the onion layers to our minds and reconnect with that joyful and peaceful part of ourselves? The term meditation is probably not what you think or have been taught. Meditation as it used here is more a way of life that can be used in any and every activity you do for the rest of your life. Eckhart Tolle talks about different ways to get reconnected with ourselves. What is interesting is that many of the methods are somewhat mechanical, and the process is less spiritual than one might think. The end result, however, is certainly deeply spiritual. Some of these methods are: 1. Breathing and being aware of your breathing; 2. Being the witness of your thoughts without judgment -- allowing thoughts to flow without identifying with your thoughts -- deeply acknowledging that you are not our thoughts; 3. Feeling your physical body and allowing it be without judgment; 4. Feeling your emotional body (including the emotional pain) and allowing it be without going on thinking tangents about the pain -- just being there with the raw physical emotional pain. 5. Getting in touch with the silence and stillness that is ever present; (so as you listening intently to the world around, you pay attention also to the silence that is behind all sounds); 6. Being totally present where you are and allowing that which happens to be; 7. Acknowledge and avoid the traps of time -- with a deep understanding that in reality what happened in the past is no longer; and what happens in the future is not now (basically time really does not, from a physics perspective, exist); 8. Accepting what you are at any given moment; 9. The simple act of asking God to allow you to feel His presence/His Grace, and then, the act of you feeling God's presence; 10. To go deep inside yourself and realize that innate joy that is ever present -- God. 11. Feeling the stillness within yourself.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great book
This book changed the way I look at the world. Very powerful insight into awareness and fully experiencing the moment. I don't necessarily agree with the author and other new age theologians but I am open minded and able to appreciate what is good and I will say a lot of it is.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Gratitude!
I am thankful to have found this book for a good price in good condition. This is one of my absolute favorite books and is perfect for anyone looking for an easy to understand, personal development book. Eckhart Tolle teaches about the present moment, how it affects us and how to live in the present moment. When I picked it up to read it by intuition, I found that it aligned with what I was facing. I encountered a ton of "synchronicity" moments with this and was able to put quite a few things I learned from this book, into practice.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

The Last Self Help Book You'll Ever Need, Unless You Buy More As Gifts Like I do.
I first encountered PON in 2006 and started reading it then. Once you read this book you can't go back to your old ways of being, well you can but you are not "unaware" any longer so it makes it hard to live in the old way you are used to. I struggled with it as all who start reading do, It plants a seed and with your cooperation it grows. You will struggle with it as all do, some people more then others, then with cooperation, determination and consistency your world changes. You're view points of the world change, the way you deal with challenging people and situations changes. You are now cooperating with life and life is able to now help you. I also found doing around 10 minutes of meditation at the start of my day gets me "dialed in" to practice living in the now all day long. I was a total mess in 2006, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. But it's 2018 and I'm the healthiest I've ever been cause of Echkart Tolle and his books. I'm ontop of the world, and I'm at peace with life, It's down right Awesome! Buy It! It's the best thing you can do for yourself and those around you. Also buy "A New Earth" by Eckhart Tolle and "Miltons Secret" he wrote it for children. Enjoy this book and learn to enjoy life!.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
