Publisher's summary

The theme of this four-day retreat: "It's Always Now"

The Now is inseparable from who you are at the deepest level. It is the prerequisite of Being. As you listen to the words on this tape, you participate in the retreat. To "retreat" means to step back - not only from the outer world, but also from the world in your head, the thinking mind. Allow the sound of the words to take you beyond words and beyond sound to the stillness within. Allow the Now to be as it is and so realize the formless essence of the Now as consciousness itself.

Suggested practice: use the lesson throughout the day.

  • Lesson 1: What is your relationship with the present moment?
  • Lesson 2: Get into your body! Practices for inner body awareness.
  • Lesson 3: Using sound as a portal into stillness.
  • Lesson 4: A day spent in silence.
  • Lesson 5: Questions & answers. Being present, amidst the world.
  • Lesson 6: Questions & answers. The power of detachment and surrender.

    Blessings on your Journey into your Self.

    Life changing

    This lecture series has been life changing for me; with instruction for living a life not based on mind thought but with present awakened awareness which observes the mind. As for the mentioned laughing audience member; that is one funny laugh and it had me laughing too!

    The laughter in the background

    This book is the audio of a retreat. I could barely focus due to an extremely obnoxious person laughing in the background. It was loud inappropriate and during times when tjere was nothing funny.

    a beautiful piece of Reality

    Eckhart Tolle has a beautiful way of providing clarity to the unfathomable.
    I couldn't put this audio book down.

    I was skeptical at first...

    But then I just listened, without bias or thinking, which is one of the lessonse o the book, and found it very relevant and applicable. Whereas this book and its author might fall under the "spiritual " category it can also be viewed as solid practical advice. You don't have to be on a spiritual quest to relate to what he says or to benefit from the teachings. And the lessons are meaningful regardless of your religion or sense of faith in God or a higher power. But I found that the teachings did improve my prayer life.

    Eckhart is great, but....

    The audience absolutely blows. The laughter coming from the crowd is all too distracting, as it happens when there's nothing to laugh at. it's absolutely obnoxious and takes away from the tone Eckhart ties to set. Too bad this wasn't edited out, totally ruins it.
