Publisher's summary

This long-awaited second book by renowned spiritual teacher Eckhart Tolle goes deeper into the teachings so eloquently and clearly expressed in his first book, The Power of Now.

These short, clear entries are organized into ten topic clusters ranging from "Stillness and Silence" and "Beyond the Thinking Mind" to "Relationships" and "Suffering and the End of Suffering." Whether listened to individually or in topic clusters, these entries take on a rare transformative power.

While its message is broad and profound, Stillness Speaks is also highly practical. Eckhart Tolle shows us how to be with another in a relationship that can contain and weather all things, how to sit with a dying person, where to find wisdom, how to free ourselves of guilt, and how to control our constant stream of thoughts. Underneath the words, and in the spaces between them, we find the power of stillness, a vibrantly alive state existing only in the present moment. Stillness Speaks draws upon the essence of all spiritual traditions, offering a message that is both ancient and contemporary, filled with timely and powerful wisdom.

Enlightening.

Echart Tolle is clear, concise, and gentle with his impactful words. This book is my go-to for practical guidance on how to ground myself, and a subtle reminder that everything I need and want is already mine - as long as I am still enough to seek guidance from my higher self.

Transformational

We often search and search for THE book which will resonate and bring change to your life for the better. This book is THE book. I won't attempt to describe it. My advise however is read/listen 1 chapter then take your time to absorb it, don't rush through the book. It is short but to the point, author not trying to add pages or hours to pad it for no reason. Narrator and recording is professional. Highly recommend it. Be prepared to enter a new dimension!
