Book Reviews of Stillness Speaks

Book Review: ...And a Little Flower Shall Teach Them.
Summary: 5 Stars

Imagine my delight a few weeks later to see the title of Tolle's new book "Stillness Speaks" and to read these passages from the chapter on Nature: "Notice how present a flower is, how surrendered to life...Have you noticed how deeply peaceful it is? How it is surrounded by a field of stillness? The moment you become aware of a plant's emanation..that plant becomes your teacher." Reading this was, as the saying goes, a case of deja vu all over again. Or rather for me another case of deja vu for a similar experience had occurred before I read "The Power of Now." Here once again was Eckhart, the master of spiritual language perfectly describing what had happened to me.

Needless to say I am a huge fan of Eckhart Tolle. His books articulate those mystical experiences and so much more in a way that draws you into them and opens up endless possibilities in your life. If you are patient and give consciousness time to work, subtle and miraculous changes take place in your life. They happen so quietly you hardly realize it until one day you find yourself wondering, like waking from a dream, Whatever happened to that old "me" and the way I used to be?

I suspect reviewers who found fault with this book either didn't read the introduction carefully or aren't yet ready to live in the state of consciousness it describes. This book with its short, compact sayings says so much in so few words you have to be receptive to the message in order to get it. It is like those other spiritual volumes, Tao Te Ching and The Gospel of Thomas, powerful in expressing the deepest spiritual truths, but puzzling to anyone still too ego-bound and mind-centered to be open to those truths. Like those works it is also a book to read and re-read. To savor and meditate on and let it grow in you.

If you have been curious enough to read these reviews, the deeper part of you that is your True Self knows what this book is about and wants you to be aware of it.

Be open as you read it. Let the miracles happen.
