Editor's Notes and Comments:
Amazon.com:
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 symbolize '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
Product Description:
It's no wonder that The Power of Now has sold over 2 million copies worldwide and has been translated into over 30 foreign languages. Much more than simple principles and platitudes, the book takes readers on an inspiring spiritual journey to find their true and deepest self and reach the ultimate in personal growth and spirituality: the discovery of truth and light. In the very first chapter, Tolle introduces readers to enlightenment and its natural enemy, the mind. He awakens readers to their role as a creator of pain and shows them how to have a pain-free identity by living fully in the present. The journey is thrilling, and along the way, the author shows how to connect to the indestructible essence of our Being, 'the eternal, ever-present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are subject to birth and death.' Featuring a new preface by the author, this paperback shows that only after regaining awareness of Being, liberated from Mind and intensely in the Now, is there Enlightenment.
Download Description:
Eckhart Tolle is emerging as one of today's most inspiring teachers. In The Power of Now, already a word-of-mouth bestseller in Canada, the author describes his transition from despair to self-realization soon after his 29th birthday. Tolle took another ten years to understand this transformation, during which time he evolved a philosophy that has parallels in Buddhism, relaxation techniques, and meditation theory but is also eminently practical. In The Power of Now he shows readers how to recognize themselves as the creators of their own pain, and how to have a pain-free existence by living fully in the present. Accessing the deepest self, the true self, can be learned, he says, by freeing ourselves from the conflicting, unreasonable demands of the mind and living present, fully, and intensely, in the Now.

The Power of Now hits its mark. People must learn to live in the NOW and not the past or the future if they wish to achieve true happiness. Mr. Tolle explains this so beautifully. This theme reminds me of my favorite book that also deals with the same theme of living in the NOw, Living The Secret Everyday: My Secret Workbookand is a great workbook tool and follow-up to Mr. Tolle's book.

...Then he can experience the menstrual cycle firsthand and may not be so enamored of it. There's nothing like getting in touch with your inner goddess while curled into a ball in bed. And agonizing cramps do indeed make you ''present''! Trust me, you don't dwell in the future or the past when the menses descend.
Honestly, can anyone get through this book without laughing aloud at certain points? I do not denigrate the search for spirituality, but never before have I heard it delivered by someone so humorless and pompous. Pass me the Midol...

The Power of Now is one of those rare books that can change not only your life but also your mind. And it is precisely mind, according to author Eckhart Tolle, that causes so much of the distress that we see in the world today. Presenting a view that is gaining popularity among New Age thinkers--even as it departs radically from traditional psychology--Tolle explains, with stunning clarity and insight, that it is human beings' excessive identification with their minds that brings them pain and suffering. In Tolle's view, mind and ego are virtually synonymous, and it is only through detachment from the mind, or "watching" the mind at work, that we become "conscious" enough to appreciate the present moment, where true power resides.
Tolle has an uncanny ability to take great mystical insights and serve them up in language perfectly digestible to modern readers. In some respects, what he is offering is not wholly new. For example, continual observation of the mind is a cornerstone of Zen philosophy and meditative practice. Western spiritual thinkers, too, such as Rudolph Steiner, have emphasized the watching of one's own mind at work as a major step toward spiritual enlightenment.
This is the type of book you come back to again and again and derive heightened insight with each rereading. It is also one of those books that you can open to any page and find genuine nuggets of timeless wisdom. Having enjoyed the book so much, I recently decided to purchase the audiotape version of the book. It should come as no surprise that Tolle's mellifluous voice bespeaks the presence of one who has lived his own teaching and achieved profound serenity. He is a great companion for the open road, just as the original book is a must-read for anyone who seeks sanity in an increasingly insane world.

Is a must for everyone that is a seeker of truth and inner development. The concept of "the inner presence" is well explain as to how experience it and with good ways to work with for a life of activity and responsibilities. There is something important to learn here.

This book helps one see themselves in a world of the time bound unconscious ego. Helps one work towards reducing finally removing the ego's subversive tactics so that what is left is NOW & Being Conscious.
