Practicing the Power of Now

Description

THE POWER OF NOW has proved to be one of the greatest spiritual books written in recent times. It contains a power that goes beyond words, and it can lead us to a much quieter place beyond our thoughts, a place where our thought-created problems dissolve, and we discover what it means to create a liberated life. Throughout, there are specific practices and clear keys that show us how to discover for ourselves the grace, ease and lightness that come when we simply quieten our thoughts and see the world before us in the present moment. PRACTICING THE POWER OF NOW is a carefully arranged series of excerpts from THE POWER OF NOW that directly give us those exercises and keys. Read this book slowly, or just open it at random, reflect on the words, reflect even on the space between the words, and maybe over time, maybe immediately you ll discover something of life-changing significance. You ll find the power, the ability to change and elevate not only your life, but your world as well. It s in your hands. Discover THE POWER OF NOW.

Eckhart Tolle was born in Germany, where he lived until he was thirteen years of age. After graduating from the University of London, he was a research scholar and supervisor at Cambridge University. When he was twenty-nine, a profound spiritual transformation radically changed the course of his life. After devoting many years to understanding, integrating and deepening that transformation, he has worked for the last ten as a counsellor and spiritual teacher, working with individuals and small groups in Europe and North America. He has lived in Vancouver, British Columbia, since 1996.
