Publisher's summary

To make the journey into The Power of Now you need to leave your analytical mind and its false created self, the ego, behind. Access to the Now is everywhere - in the body, the silence, and the space all around you. These are the keys to enter a state of inner peace. They can be used to bring you into the Now, the present moment, where problems do not exist. It is here you find your joy and are able to embrace your true self. It is here you discover that you are already complete and perfect.

Although the journey is challenging, Eckhart Tolle offers simple language in a question and answer format. The words themselves are the signposts to guide you on your journey. There are new discoveries to be made along the way: you are not your mind, you can find your way out of psychological pain, authentic human power is found by surrendering to the Now. When you become fully present and accepting of what is, you open yourself to the transforming experience of The Power of Now.

A remarkable book

A must read for anyone who is searching for deeper spiritual insight. This book was truly inspirational to me! Eckhart Tolle is an amazing teacher and this book helped me reach a higher spiritual plane at a point in my life when I knew I needed more. It is sometimes hard to grasp what he is saying, but definately worth re-reading those sections until it is understood.

the time is now..

yes. yes. wow. oh, yes. I re-member. Never before has something been so plainly visible. If it is "too boring" or "his voice is too monotonous" then just set it aside and pick it u again at a later date. It is when, through his monotonous voice that his voice leaps, dips and dances, that you know " the time in now". No worries, if your reading this ..it is near..

Best book for being here now!

I’ve listened to this book twice and will most likely listen to it several more times throughout my life. The wisdom he bestows, helps me tame the chaotic chatter in my mind. When I bring myself back to the now, moments in life are simply wonderful. How could it not be, free of negative talk, free of problem concentrating, free of past thought, free of future thought. The stress and tension I feel is most often caused by identifying myself with the mind. A must read for everyone and should be taught to children in my opinion.

Just what I needed

In an attempt to better myself, I sought Eckart Tolle by way of a recommendation. I resisted it for a while, but finally gave in. It was worth it. I feel like hearing directly from the author's mouth helps communicate his ideas even more clearly and the very act of listening becomes part of the practice one learns about in the book. Great listening experience and a good way to absorb the content.
