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
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.
孔子说,有生而知之者,有学而知之者,还有困而知之者;然而对于灵修之道,却没有前两种来源,就连佛陀的觉悟也需要一个惊诧与苦修的过程。因此,几乎没有人天生会灵修,也没有人天生就意识到自己需要灵修或悟道。我们从事灵修是因为我们痛苦,而我们的痛苦大部分均来自于我们...
评分悟,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...
评分这本书读得很慢,读的过程中陆续写了点感受。也不总结综合了,就1,2,3方上来分享吧。 1.上周买来的那本“the power of now”,看了一个开头。这本书在北美极为畅销。不过从头十几页来看,真的写得不好。不是说内容,是说文笔,不是一般的臭。 本来讲灵性的东西,讲the power...

一个灵修老师的神神叨叨,不敢相信我看封面居然以为它会有一丝半毫的科学性
评分开篇即论God and being。
评分Now is presence.
评分第一次读200多页的英文原版书不觉得枯燥~
评分读的略累,作者完全没有什么逻辑。比不上Peace is Every Step, 更比不上Emotional Balance.
