The Power of Now
How much of your day is actually spent completely focused in the here and now? When you are working, how often do you find your mind wandering? How much of your time is spent thinking about what you are going to do next weekend or wishing you'd handled a particular situation differently?
The majority of us spend most of our life fixated on the past or worrying about the future. The present is just something that we gloss over until we realize that we missed out on something. Then, we yearn to have that day back.
What we tend to forget is that all we really have is now. The past is gone it no longer exists, except in memory. These experiences can't be changed in any way. Dream or worry about the future as much as you want but no one is promised these things, good or bad. This moment that's all. Make it count and really experience it.
It's a bit scary and freeing all at the same time to know that all we have is right now. More and more, I find myself feeling the here and now and listening to my intuition. I understand quality rather than quantity in my daily life. When I get off balance or upset, I see the fear scenarios playing and I re-center myself.

Puts into words what we already know
I heartily recommend this book, and yet I can also see where some of the negative reviews come from. I try re-reading these words from past perspectives, and can understand those who view it as fake, baloney, mumbo jumbo, etc.
But I can assure you that there is more to it than that, and the people for whom this book makes sense are not blindly following a bestseller, they are simply gravitating towards a truth they've started seeing on their own. From the first pages this book keeps that truth right under your nose, but it's ultimately you who is reading it, and who has to decide for yourself.
Tolle does not propose anything new in this book (indeed he speaks of things which the wisest of our species have known for millennia) but he has accomplished something phenomenal in the simplicity and clarity with which he presents it.

* A manual to awakening ...
I really like this book and the book that came with it-FREE YOUR MIND by Anthony Stultz-together they offer real change for a clearer life.

Spiritual Inspiration or Charlatanism?
People need to cling to something, particularly in a spiritually desolate age like the one we live in. The Power of Now has reached mountainous heights of popularity to the point of becoming implanted in popular culture. But charlatism doesn't rear it's ugly head as vigirous as Tolle, unleasing ideas that have been expressed in countless ways by countless writers, philosophers and in religions since the beginning of time. Tolle evangelizes his beliefs with almost suffocating condescension. The book is styled as a manuscript of a question/answer seminar, in a similar way to PD Ouspensky's The Fourth Way. This enhances the message that Tolle aims to expound - that happiness lies in the eternal now, and that the source grief for many lies in our occupation with the past and future. Questions are asked, and his answer is given - stay in the moment, feel the pain body, rid yourself of past or future concerns - all chirped interminably and without any reference to the human drama that is our lives. It's disheartening to see his ideas are not subtly expressed but rather in the guise of an omniscient evangelist. His apparent happiness fails to shine through his writing and hardly seems enlightened at all, instead preferring to play the pied piper leading us all to his own (profitable) brand of salvation. All in all, most will find passages of inspiration in this - but the book comes across as more of a "Buddhism for dummies" then as timeless literature.

Hi,
