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.

Truth Devour

Time is an illusion

Reviewed in Australia on 2 June 2019

Verified Purchase

It’s a rather fabulous book in the way it is designed and written. I think that anyone who us searching for a way to break the patterns of their life could benefit from reading this book.

I found myself laughing in moments (even though it’s not supposed to be funny). The amusement comes from the reality of how obscure some of our fundamental beliefs are.

Paraphrasing an example in the book explaining how there is no past or future, there can only be now ...

“If you ask an eagle or a bear, what time is it, they would say the time is now and think, what a stupid question.”

Brilliant book & great audio.

Spiritually Damaging! Reader beware!!!

Reviewed in Australia on 2 December 2019

I was recommended this book some time ago, I highly recommend staying away from this book!

Nothing more than an Occult self help 'Guru.'
Taking pieces from different belief systems to cash in on the vulnerable that are spiritually curious or have genuine mental health issues that need genuine guidance and help, definitely would not recommend this book for such peaople (nor for anyone!)

I was in a dark place, until I was saved by Jesus Christ. He is the way, the truth and the life!

Jesus heals, seek him and find hope and salvation.

Love to you all, God bless!

A Life changing experience!

I used to be a raging alcoholic. In my recovery I found that the past was haunting me. Everywhere I went locally and people that I saw always brought back terrible memories of my behavior. This book changed my life and the way I viewed it. Letting go of the past and seeing that it is not helpful, was in fact extremely helpful to me. This book will teach every single person who reads it something precious. If I could click on 20 stars for my review I wouldn't hesitate : ) Stay Mindful folks and ENJOY!!

Almost all life questions are answered in this book.

I found the flow - especially the arrangements of topics - well arranged.

The author has shared his life experience without any sugar coating. The book can be one's lifelong companion.

This book has given me so much to think about. I started reading the book as one person and have finished it with a completely different mindset. I am excited to begin living again. The book is written in a way that the information is simple and nothing you didn’t already know but when you read it you think that makes sense. I don’t know how I have missed it

The Travel Guide for your Head . . .

Reviewed in Australia on 30 October 2015

Verified Purchase

I can only return to this book sporadically due to lifestyle constraints, so it will be a very slow read, but maybe it's better that way in order to fully absorb and relate the wisdom herein contained.

So far it's been rather mind-blowing, in that it appears to be a rational and concise synthesis of most of my personal psychological researches of the past 50 years, from Maslow in the 60's, followed by a long interest in Eastern belief systems, and many alternate psychological viewpoints including, amongst others, the "channelings" of SETH via Jane Roberts. All, while never providing "The Answer", adding to my overt and subconscious understanding of "Life, The Universe, and Everything".

Now in these later days I've been trying to understand whatever relationships may exist between Reality, Thought, and Consciousness, using the scence of Quantum Physics as a connecting link. Innately I feel that the scope of this research now extends way beyond any spiritual and metaphysical yearnings that have for aeons been the province of Religion, which has used our needs as a tool of mis-information and social control.

This amazing book appears to be doing it for me, and I believe that any person approaching this book with an open mind, and an ability to release the PC bonds of the so-called "New Age" Religion Replacement Paradigm, will greatly benefit from these perceptive words of wisdom, which aren't limited by any pre-determined paradigm. Wherever you're coming from, or going to, on whichever road, then this book is surely the most wonderful Travel Guide to yourself.

I hope to post a fuller review on completion, if ever . . . I'm continually back-referencing and returning to previous points of interest, so don't hold your breath . . .

Enjoy!!

I have wanted to read this book for so many years but never got around to it. However after reading a fascinating p, thoroughly depressing book, A Little Life I sought this book foe a remedy to the malaise I am experienced. It certainly did the trick! So many things to think about and practice. I am now making a point of breaking the anxiety ridden behaviour of thinking about EVERYTHING. Love it, definitely recommend 😀

Gutted that I wasted a gift card on this rubbish

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 March 2019

Verified Purchase

A dear friend recommended this book to me and it clearly affected her deeply. I tried really hard to get it, but struggled from the start. It's unbelievably boring. I could barely get through a page before nodding off. It's very repetitive, saying the same thing again and again. It also made so many ridiculous, unsubstantiated, pseudo-scientific assertions it was impossible to take seriously. For example, 'Emotional pain is also the main cause of physical pain and physical disease.' Try telling that to someone with a broken leg! Finally, I found it patronising and unrealistic, with a selfish and self-centred outlook. Anyone with responsibilities - dependent children or parents, a partner, a job, employees, bills to pay, voluntary roles - would be very irresponsible to ignore the future and live purely in the now. I was so relieved to read all the other 1* reviews and find that a small but significant minority felt, as I did, that this book is a pile of tosh.

Didn't finish it!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 December 2018

Verified Purchase

Far too much waffle about nothing in my opinion, don't really understand what the author is trying say. It seems he speaks from his own experience.

My recommended books are
Grow rich While You Sleep by Ben Sweetland
TNT: The Power Within by Claude Bristol
Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz
There's no waffle in these books.

Basically get the habit of success thinking instilled in you mind by disciplining yourself to think that way. Initially you have to force yourself to think success thoughts rather than letting your thinking run on autopilot, being influenced by the outside world. The more you force yourself to think success, the more your mind will do it.

Thinking habits apparently take 21 days to form so as they say, your result will reflect your efforts.

Your subconscious take notice of whatever you think and feel. Rather than listen to the author's videos on YT, I'd recommend listening to Bob Proctor who has studied success thinking for over five decades and was mentored by the late Earl Nightingale. By the way, there's two excellent recordings from Earl Nightingale on YT, The Strangest Secret and the condensed audio of Hill's Think & Grow Rich.

Barely coherent ramblings

Reviewed in the United States on 20 February 2019

Verified Purchase

I ordered this book because so many people said it was a must-read. No, it's not. It's a bunch of rambling. Tolle uses pages and pages of borderline coherent blathering to say what could be summed up in one paragraph.
His writing style is unbearable. For example, "It is a misperception of your essential reality that is beyond birth and death, and is due to the limitations of your mind, which, having lost touch with Being creates the body as evidence of its illusory belief in separation and to justify its state of fear." JFC.
I finally put this book away for good after reading half of it. I really don't understand the book's popularity. It's like everybody is nodding, smiling, and singing Tolle's praises, when the reality is that nobody gets it because there is nothing to "get." But nobody wants to say it.

A must read for anyone wanting to escape emotional pain or be free of the Self you are fed up with

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 March 2018

Everyone should read this book. Eckhart Tolle is a spiritual teacher he guides you how to live in the Now and how to become aware of your chattering mind, how to deal with painful emotions, how to awaken from the preconditioned self - by this I mean the person you think you are but really its just a lot of ideas and beliefs coming from teachers, parents, religion, this book will free you from that old self and become free to live in the now.

The most powerful book on Awakening, ever?

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 October 2018

Verified Purchase

I read this book just after it first came out. Having re-read it several times now, referring to it whenever my life situations were difficult, I can say it is of extraordinary value. It has helped me become more Present and Conscious to this moment, and virtually all of my previous difficulties have faded into nothingness. Challenges do occur, of course, but the way I see them and approach them is vastly different to my former state. Highly recommended!
