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.

Enlightening (without the cliche)

Loved it! And will probably listen again to fully grasp concepts and absorb. Personally I found it be a complete life instruction, the guidance and the dialogue is superbly eloquent yet so simple to understand.

The only thing I would point out is that the narration at times was difficult to follow. Also the audio prompts between chapters were quite piercing.

Need to listen more than once!

I listened as walked along the beach in the morning. Had to go back several times. And I will have to listen to it again. And probably again. Difficult concepts for our ego minds to understand. But worth the try!

Profound

Not one of the most—the most—profound book I’ve ever read. And I’ve read hundreds of them.

A Little 'high level' for me but really enjoyed it

very interesting concepts that requires an open mind (at least for me) but at the same time it got me thinking, and at the end I really loved the information and the thought process to be present "Now"

So powerful

The teaching is deeply profound and liberating. As I write this, I contemplate this thought.. “ the analytical mind is writing this review or I AM writing this?” Thank you, Eckhart Tolle. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
