Summary: My First and Only Book Review
Review: An eloquent presentation of profound concepts that resonate mightily within me. Things I have known (possibly always) but keep forgetting to remember. This can be a very helpful book.

Summary: THE POWER of NOW
Review: The most profound book I have ever read. As the Heart knows, there is and always has been One, and only One Teaching. Nowhere have I seen it more succintly, eloquently and clearly presented than in the pages of this book. If I had a choice of only one book to take with me, alone, to an isolated desert island, it would be THE POWER of NOW. (NOW=WON=ONE). Within the context of verbal language, this is as good as it gets. Words properly used as symbols to point beyond themselves to that which can never be captured in words, i.e. REALITY. This is DIVINE TRANSMISSION in book form. Prepare yourself for radical transformation on the way to the bookstore or as you wait for the mailman's delivery.

Summary: KEEP LIFE SIMPLE AND LIVE IN THE NOW
Review: This book brings to the forefront how we complicate our existence. Although, not simple to re-train your thinking process between past and future, by starting with babysteps, you will find yourself experiencing life in a totally different way. Not so burdensome, not so complicated and not so painful.

Summary: "A formula for true enlightenment"
Review: It's difficult to write a review of "The Power Of Now" without imparting a message which I am sure Eckhart Tolle would say himself! BE IN THE NOW! Seemingly - such a simple message, but how many of us can do this? The dissolution of the past and future = infinity. Yes it works! The knowledge contained within this book is way beyond anything I have ever read or exeperienced in my 43 years of existence. I regard this book nothing short of a catylist for perhaps taking human cocsciousnous to a much needed "higher level". What else can I say? I am buying and giving this masterpeice to everyone I know. I sincerely hope that "The Power Of Now" empowers you, - as it did me. If you want to court infinity, - be in the now! It's everything you have been searching for!

Summary: profound simplicity
Review: I've been looking for this book a long time, down many dead-ends. Usually, "simple" = shallow, and "profound" slides into wordy. The book should be printed highlighted! Every sentence in it is powerful. Direct without being harsh, he makes a lot of our mind-based beliefs look the nonsense they are, and impossible to continue.

Summary: Now - Now
Review: Echkart Tolle's book is a living and powerful vehicle that takes the reader gently by the hand into the Now if they but will allow it. Via a question and answer format, he addresses just about every issue, question, and objection that anyone could possible raise on the subject. The power that the Now carries is transmitted in his words and seems to "ring true" in the heart of the reader. I highly recommend this book for anyone who has read about being in the Now and desired it but somehow has not been able to come close to experiencing it. He writes in his introduction that he hopes that his book will act as a catalyst for a "radical inner transformation" in those who are ready for it. Well, there is no question in my mind that it indeed can cause such a transformation. One of the things he said that had a great impact on me was, "The moment you realize you are not present, you are present." So simple. This is a book you will want to keep in reach to renew and refresh yourself with anytime you need it.

Summary: This Is all you need to know
Review: I have been an active passionate "seeker" for over 10 years. I have read many books, gone to many forums but none have allowed me to get to where it was I wanted to be. Mr. Tolle has helped me to end that search. I have never felt such joy, peace and love before in all aspects of my life. I read it every day so as to keep the message strong. Once I master the techniques I will have no use for the book. I have given out 5 copies as gifts to my relatives and friends. If you want to get there, Mr. Tolle will guide you right to the brink. The last step has to be yours and yours alone. I hope you have the courage to take that last step because the place you get to is indescribable.

Summary: VERY READABLE
Review: I won't repeat all of the wonderful things about this book that other reviewers have said. Suffice it to say that I agree with them. I did want to point out that this book is very easy to read. Many books I have read about spirituality are poorly written and difficult to understand. This is not one of them. The simplicity of Tolle's message rings with truth. This book can change your life.

Summary: This book has presence.
Review: Eckhardt Tolle's "The Power of Now" is a compelling book about getting into the moment and accessing the power that resides there. Tolle talks about pain and suffering as functions of the mind that we can let go of. I was struck by so many passages, including this one: "So the single most vital step on your journey toward enlightenment is this: learn to disidentify from your mind. Every time you creat a gap in the stream of mind, the light of your consciousness grows stronger." What I like here is that the words themselves are both intriguing and resonant with an inexplicable truth. By saying yes to your life, to this moment, Tolle explains your life will start working for you rather than against you. The book is written as a question and answer conversation with Tolle, who converses clearly, patiently, and with compassion. I highly recommend this book - it can make a huge difference in your life! Tolle also points out that while only you can bring yourself into the now, finding someone who is intensely conscious and joining them in the state of presence can accelerate things. So I'd like to recommend a book by a couple I've experienced as master trainers in getting into the moment. It is Ariel and Shya Kane's "Working of Yourself Doesn't Work: A Book About Instantaneous Transformation." This book is about having a magnificent life and nothing less. And while it seems too good to be true, I found that the three principles of transformation the Kanes talk about touched me so profoundly that I HAVE discovered my own magnificence. No kidding! Just by being in the moment, life becomes magical. By becoming aware of the mechanical behaviors that keep us out of the moment, we regain our original freedom. Read this book and the presence of the Kanes will seep through and you'll feel how true and powerful their words are, and how deeply they care about people and about the often-missed possibility of living with immeasurable joy, wellness, nourishing relationships, and satisfaction. And if you're ever in New York City, check out their seminars - they are miraculous.

Summary: Eckhart's and your presence rise from the pages . . .
Review: +AH4-I wrote one of the early Amazon reviews for Eckhart+IBk-sbook last summer, and the book remains utterly as fresh for me todayas the first moment I opened it (thinking, oh, not another one . . .) and fell through the pages into wonder. Back then the book was something like 70,000 on Amazon, as I write this it is at 95. I want everyone to hear Eckhart+IBk-s voice! Occasionally you can hear him speak ... . If you do, your book will contain+AH4-+AH4- his voice, and his intonations and presence will rise from the printed words like mist above a warm pond at dawn, awakening your own presence. His publisher recently compiled a first set of tapes called +IBw-Companion to THE POWER OF NOW: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment: Volume 1+IB0-, which will be appearing for sale on Amazon+IBk-s site any day now. I use this two tape set morning and night to rekindle my own presence. Sometimes I listen to the words, sometimes I simply soak in the+AH4-+AH4- familiar undulating radiance that saturates me as Eckhart+IBk-s voice percolates through my ears and into the rest of me. I have been blessed to hear him speak a number of times, yet I am sure that these tapes will be just as powerful for those who have not. The message is the same as the book (how could it not be?), with the choreography and grace of each moment unique (how could they not be?). When I listened to the tapes for the first time, I thought, +IBw-Everything is here, everything+AH4-+AH4- you need to know.+IB0- Buy yourself these tapes, and be rocked in the cradle of presence morning and night. Through immersion, presence will slowly become your companion more and more continuously.+AH4-
