"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. "

What will you learn from this book

Take-Aways

1. You and your ‘self’  are not the same.

2. Time is an illusion. The past and the future don’t matter at all. What matters is only this moment; the Now.

3. You should learn to work through problems rather than avoiding them.

4. The gift of thought is one of the most important attributes of humans.

5. We are not our minds or our personalities. We have a mind and personalities.

6. Most of our pain, anxiety and psychological illness arise from our efforts to avoid problems or pretend they don’t exist.
