Book Reviews of Stillness Speaks
Book Review: A total waste of time and money
Summary: 1 Stars
The biggest regret that I have so far this year was buying this stupid book. I was expecting something like the Power of Now, but instead I got nothing like that. The book is poorly written and the publisher she seek professional help if he thinks anyone can take this book seriously. I was really disappointed. I will never buy another book from this publisher again.Book Review: A very handy little book!
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this book handy to dip into occasionally as it is a lot shorter than his main book "the power of now". All of the excerpts in this book are taken directly from his first book. I like the fact that he has watered it down to the best bits, at least I can read the most important points without sifting through a whole book again!Book Review: A wonderful meditative book.
Summary: 5 Stars
I wish that I had what he has. Such a beautiful soul. A wonderful book to take along wherever you go, to quiet the mind.Book Review: A wonderful spiritual book
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great follow up to the Power of Now. Eckhart takes universal spiritual truths that have been known to mystics for years and shares them with the general population. This book is written in the same form as Buddhist Sutras. The book is short and to the point.
Examples from the book:
Whatever you accept completely will take you to peace.
Sometimes surrender means giving up trying to understand and becoming comfortable with not knowing.
Through "you" formless consciousness has become aware of itself through you.
Spiritual awakening is awakening from the dream of thought.
Eckhart uses Zen teachings and quotes Jesus and Buddha several times in his book. Of all the books I have read I believe Eckhart Tolle is the most enlightened. I detect no Ego in his writings and he seems to write from a higher level of consciousness than most of us live at. He teaches that the ego is not us, we are the witnessing awareness, we need to quit getting lost in our stream of thought and stay aware of the present moment. We also need to stop falling under the delusion of our conditioned mind (pain body)and see life as it really is. The main teaching is to quit resisting life and embrace what is. 5 star book read it until you get it.
Book Review: Absolutely Outstanding
