Eckhart Tolle , born Ulrich Leonard Tolle, February 16, 1948, is a German-born writer, public speaker, and spiritual teacher. The New York Times has called him "the most popular spiritual author in the nation". He is the author of the bestsellers "The Power of Now" and "A New Earth".
Tolle had an unhappy childhood in Germany and Spain. His depression reached its peak during early adulthood in England, until he underwent what he calls an "inner transformation". He then spent many years as a vagrant, "in a a state of deep bliss", he says, before becoming a spiritual teacher. He eventually moved to North America where he began writing his first book. He currently lives in Vancouver, Canada with his wife, Kim Eng.
Eckhart 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 symbolise "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
悟,有时候是一个缓慢的过程。 我在2008年10月份阅读《遇见未知的自己》,了解到“臣服”一词,但是我没有懂。 本周,我阅读《当下的力量》,才真正明白,什么是“臣服”。 时间跨度接近两年。 我重新翻阅《遇见未知的自己》,确认并不是书中解释的不好,其实,道理就是那...
评分内质中有着一种悲观与喜悦抗衡,常常打搅了当下。 悲伤时放声哭,喜悦时唱首歌,作为心情的打点,却没有压抑情绪,反而压抑了性情。喜悦时我们总能挂起简单的笑容,对一切满怀信心,踌躇满志,以至于忽略一些情致,唐突了当下,又落到悲伤的境地,殊不知那一些或平常或...
评分原来世上绝大部分人,都被思维控制着,陷于漫无目的、绵绵不绝、无意识的思维活动中。而生命中的种种问题,比如内心无法宁静,被恐惧、苦难所折磨,所有真正的关系——与自己、与他人、与自然、与上帝——受阻,及至疾病、灾难,不止,“思维能量创造了现存的政治、经济和社会...
评分人们追捧少年天才、童真美人,赞美年轻有为,歌颂剑走偏锋,在这个世界你很难不急功近利,这个时代的主流就是,快快快,出名要趁早,嫁入豪门更要趁早,在事业上出人头地更是要早早早。 我们很容易也被陷入了这样的思维模式,快步走还嫌不够,恨不得跑,跑起来还不够,恨不...

前段时间中午吃饭路上和一个同对修行感兴趣的同事聊到这本书,他很喜欢,我说我印象一般。后来我Audible里credit太多,就买了一本,不到一周就听完了,觉得这是我看过的最好的书之一。可能因为第一次看的是中文版的缘故吧。
评分第一次看这种spiritual guidance的书,今天下午读了后面一半,豁然开朗。一开始是带着偏见读的,犯了它后面提到的错误:给东西贴标签,这也是没有活在当下的一种。disconnected with mind, ur pain body, full consciousness, meditation, observing。所谓的历史的车轮也是活在过去的一种。
评分第一次读200多页的英文原版书不觉得枯燥~
评分self-development.... = =||| 年纪过了。。。。果然不能信任火车上鬼佬的阅读倾向。。。。
评分Work is your therapy. Sometimes it works and sometimes it overworks. Such is life/work.
