Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The Power of Now is a guide to spiritual awakening from a man who is emerging as one of this generation’s clearest, most inspiring teachers on the subject. Eckhart Tolle is not aligned with any particular religion but does what all the great masters have done: shows that the way, the truth, and the light already exist within each human being. There is no need to look elsewhere. At the heart of the book is Tolle’s own story of early despair that culminated in a life-transforming experience of enlightenment at the age of 29. He emerged to share insights on the perils of the mind, the power of the present, and the accessibility of one’s true nature. According to Tolle, “To regain awareness of Being and to abide in that state of ‘feeling-realization’ is enlightenment.” “A reminder to be truly present in our own lives.... The result? More joy, right now.” — O: The Oprah Magazine


Amazon.com Review:
Ekhart Tolle's message is simple: living in the now is the truest path to happiness and enlightenment. And while this message may not seem stunningly original or fresh, Tolle's clear writing, supportive voice, and enthusiasm make this an excellent manual for anyone who's ever wondered what exactly "living in the now" means. Foremost, Tolle is a world-class teacher, able to explain complicated concepts in concrete language. More importantly, within a chapter of reading this book, readers are already holding the world in a different container--more conscious of how thoughts and emotions get in the way of their ability to live in genuine peace and happiness.

Tolle packs a lot of information and inspirational ideas into The Power of Now. (Topics include the source of Chi, enlightened relationships, creative use of the mind, impermanence, and the cycle of life.) Thankfully, he's added markers that symbolize "break time." This is when readers should close the book and mull over what they just read. As a result, The Power of Now reads like the highly acclaimed A Course in Miracles--a spiritual guidebook that has the potential to inspire just as many study groups and change just as many lives for the better. --Gail Hudson

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Presence, Peace, and Joy
This exciting book is not for everyone. It requires an open mind and a fearless curiosity about our true natures as spiritual beings. Building on concepts of the spirituality traditions (Krishnamurti, Biblical texts, others), Tolle extends and explains them in plain English, providing through examples, sacred texts, and observations, the unique association we share with existence, the influence and traps of the mind, and ways to use our bodies as portals to our true essence, which is presence, peace, ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Power of Now, Is Taking Control of Your Emotions!
This book has helped me beyond my belief! We all have emotions, and we cannot help how we feel. Now, imagine if you were able to take control of those emotions, and emerge as a strong and capable leader? We all know that leaders must manage and control their emotions. What do we do if we cannot? How can we learn to manage something that appears so difficult to control?

Its easy! Read this book! The Power of Now explains the "pain body" that exists within our cells. Past hurts stack up over ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The first book thar really worked
How many times have you purchased a self help/growth book with high expectations? I would usually read the jacket and say, "that's me" or that those are the goals for myself I wish to achieve. I would eventually finish it, put it down and find nothing has changed. For myself, more times than I care to count. This is the first time I have found a book to actually work and show results.

The book is basically about being present. You wouldn't think that more than a few paragraphs would be ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Big stuff
Although this book may get a bit too far "out there" towards the end for some people, the essential tenets are so profoundly true and helpful, I'd say it is a must read for anyone. The power is all in the now.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Power of Now
This book has been around awhile and for good reason. It talks about living in the here and now to find contentment- a simple but effective strategy in today's world.
