Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
A counsellor and spiritual teacher shares the secret of his own self-realization and the philosophy for living in the present he has developed from Buddhist principles, meditation theory, and relaxation techniques.

Amazon.co.uk 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 symbolise "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

5 out of 5 stars Power Of Now   August 31, 2010
A. Coles (UK)
Once i had started The Power Of Now, i couldnt put it down. I highly recommend this book to people who worry too much about the future or who cant get away from the past. This book shows you exactly how to let go of all the worries you have and to deal with them in a better way. Some parts of the book are very deep but those are the parts that really make you think. I shall be definately buying Practising The Power Of Now.


5 out of 5 stars wonderful book   August 28, 2010

1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is possibly the most powerful and insightful book on spirituality ever written. The most amazing thing about it is its clarity - its account of the workings of the human minds is truly stunning. Like no other book I've read, it has an enlightening effect as you read it - you can feel the clarity and insight spreading to you. Also recommended are The Awakening of Spiritual Awareness by Keith Loy and a great explanatory book by Steve Taylor, which is recommended by Eckhart as 'one of the best books on spiritual awakening I have read. An important contribution to the global shift in consciousness.' Waking From Sleep: Why Awakening Experiences Occur and How to Make them Permanent


4 out of 5 stars Spooky stuff   August 20, 2010
Veronique
The Power of Now makes sense, however, it deconstructs the world as we know it and can be spooky. I agree wholeheartedly with the principle that there is no past and no future, only present, which we physically inhabit, but at the same time I do not want to surrender to this truth, as it scares me. I liked the idea of getting rid of the ego, which is basically the emotional baggage that we all carry within unnecessarily, but not to the extreme as proposed by Tolle. Or maybe I should say - I welcome the concept of weakening the ego, which is much the hindrance in embracing other human beings as equals. And this is where I would stop, as following his teaching verbatim would produce a humanity void of personalities - an army of gentle robots. I watched interviews with Tolle and his wife Kim Eng on the net and inasmuch as I respect their teachings, I somehow had a sense of them being a bit unnatural. Cyborg-ish. This notwithstanding the book is very intelligent and I will try to incorporate some of it's philosophy into my daily life. I would recommend it, especially to people who have had a major trauma, and are desperate for some answers. If they are unable to find them in established, mainstream religions and therapies, they may find a gem here and there in this book.


1 out of 5 stars Yes, I 'get it'. No, I don't like it.   August 14, 2010

2 out of 4 found this review helpful

This book gets a lot of 5 star reviews, which is quite a disturbing (and also laughable) thought. It's shallow and self-serving and I would have thought that anyone with an A-level in pyschology would see through without breaking a sweat. John Lennon summed it up in '...life is what happens when you're busy making other plans...'. There was no need for dear little Eckhart to stretch into a twisty-turney multi-chapter insomnia cure.
The big problem is that happiness and truth are not mutually inclusive. That's just a fact. Just because something makes you happy, doesn't make it true! But (as I hear the 'but if I'm not doing anyone else any harm and it makes me feel better...' argument coming out of the well-worn woodwork) being delusional (believing in something that makes you feel good that doesn't have a shred of evidence to back it up) can at best a) lead you deluded life choices or worse, b) there is the Eckhart Tolle "walk of death." which is quite well publicised (although I can't vouch for it's truth personally!). After listening to Tolle's Power of Now tapes repeatedly, Brianna Wilkins walked miles without warm clothing (thinking only of the present moment, I'm sure) in the middle of winter and..."Now," she's dead. I find that quite worrying. Does Tolle have anything new or fresh to say? Not really. It all hinges on belief and private feelings. Meditations and mantras that are only a behavioural genetic strand away from basic cognitive behavioural therapy your (real) doc would rightly recommend for depression (Co-incidentally - if you're thinking of buying this as you're going through a bad period in your life, don't!!! buy 'overcoming depression' by dr.paul gilbert instead).
Personally (and this is purely my opinion) I'm willing to wait until studies of DNA and gene expression catch up to functional brain research. I'm willing to wait until human cognitive processes are mapped, simulated, and duplicated on synthetic hardware. Then and only then will we be able to say anything definitive about the question of consciousness. Until then Tolle knows no more than us - he's just imposing his views to the vunerable in the worst possible way. Intellectual giants such as Kurzweil, Pinker, Ridley, Dawkins, Dennett, Minsky, Buss, Alper and others are much closer to useful knowledge about this subject than Tolle.
Maybe I find Tolle a little disturbing and kind of 'cultish'. I tried to put that to one side when reading the book (and be in the moment ;)). To my mind he appeared to be using almost scare tactics - as if we're all in some kind of race to obliterate the human ego and the "pain-body" before they destroy the earth. We hold memories of pain for a good reason-to avoid repeating mistakes. That's a good thing. It's what moved us on from our ape ancestry and continues our evolution. Meditation works, yes. But it's nothing to do with consciousness or spirituality - it's a chemical change in the brain. To think otherwise is no different to considering an aircraft takes off as magical spirits lift it from the ground. Back to school guys.
For me the book fell v.short of anything substantial. Yes I do 'get it'. No, there's nothing new. There was no need for Eckhart to dress it up in the dress of intellectual snobbery to boost his bank balance. Save your money. Go elsewhere and leave this spiritual bandwagon for othersOvercoming Depression: A guide to recovery with a complete self-help programme.

This book is a must read for anyone seeking answers to why human behaviour is so crazy. For anyone seeking unshakable peace and freedom from pain and suffering in their life experiences, this is the book for you!
I can't even begin to explain the transformational power of this book, it will change your life; Read it!!!!
