Book Reviews of Power of Now
Book Review: A wonderful, thought provoking, life-changing read.
Summary: 5 Stars
An astonishing work; wonderful. Its like taking a mental shower. Written plainly and simply, it nevertheless is the most profound and meaningful book I have ever read. From reading the first few pages, it all made complete sense and it changed my whole outlook on life. I have been interested in personal development, meditation, cutting edge physics and metaphysics for some years now, and more recently in spirituality, and this book has answered many nagging questions. I would recommend it to anybody and everybody. I cannot praise it enough.Book Review: The best book I have ever read
Summary: 5 Stars
When I read Eckhart Tolle's account of his spiritual awakening in Cygnus books magazine, I immediately understood what he was saying, having experienced similar enlightenment following the sudden death of my husband, three years ago. Going on to read the book, I was not disappointed. It is absolutely brilliant, I can identify with everything he says from firsthand experience, but do not share his gift for being able to share the information in such an articulate manner. Discovering this book at this time was no accident, as these things never are. As a Reiki Master/Teacher, I have read much, attended courses and listened to many people, only to have come full circle back to the very simple truth that is our spiritual reality and the power of now. If you read only one more book in your life, make it this one. Its simple truth is all you need to access Being - being the strength of all that is, was and ever will be.Book Review: You Will Never Be The Same Again
Summary: 5 Stars
Your heart will tremble with fear, then warm with delight as Eckahrt Tolle takes you on a Journey to meet the Real You, I have read hundreds of great books in this area in recent years, but nothing comes near the honesty and directness of 'The Power of NOW'. The Spirit has a voice.Book Review: This book could help you towards enlightenment...maybe.
Summary: 5 Stars
Eckhart Tolle writes about spirituality with an authority and awareness that very few people possess. Such insight into the basis of human-beingness cannot be taught, it must come from within. To do this we are told, we must be firmly in the eternal present. Only when we are in this blissful state of awareness are we truly being ourselves. Thats the theory, the hard part is getting there!What he wrote rang true and it could help you towards your own self realisation. Dont forget though; it is unlikely you will become enlightened just by reading a book,whichever book it may be!
Book Review: This book is the answer you have been looking for!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have read many self-help books in my life, but not one has ever had the same impact on my life as the 'The Power of Now'. Every word 'oozes' absolute truth and it can only have been inspired by the author first having had a life that made no sense. As a result, the author Eckhart Tolle had a total breakdown, but like a phoenix rising from the ashes and with more than a little help from The Buddha's teachings he analysed his life situation and
found that the basic problem was that his mind was 'all noise'from living in the past and thinking 'it will be alright in the future'. Recognise any similarities with yourself anybody?
Solution, get this book and start practicing with a conscious mind and living in the present moment.
Banish guilt, regret and grievences from your life. Learn to forgive and find peace. Recognise that the mind is basically all ego and that much of it is based on false characteristics, trying to be something that it is not, seeking power and influence that cannot be sustained. Where do you finish up? Often rejected by the world.
Living in the present moment does not mean withdrawing from modern society or even material possessions. What it does mean is living from a deeper perspective from within yourself, the 'inner being'and finding fulfilment well away from where you thought you would find it, somewhere on the outside.
The way Eckart Tolle describes the concept is not difficult to understand, but it will require consistent practice. Follow his clear directions and you will be able to experience relief immediately, even if only momentarily.
Buy this book, read it, re-read, practice its teachings and you will be on the road to a full, spiritually based (not religious), life that could only be dreamed of without it.
