As the perils of our world seem to escalate beyond control, how can we reverse the direction we appear to be heading? According to Eckhart Tolle, the answer lies in discovering a deeper level of awareness both individually and collectively.

When challenges arise in your life, what happens inside of you? For many of us, the larger the problem, the more we resist, contract, and react unconsciously. On the other hand, explains Eckhart Tolle, in any given moment we have the chance to remain open to life, align with what is, and experience the natural sense of peace and aliveness that he calls "the joy of being".

Story
In A New Earth, renowned spiritual teacher Eckhart Tolle describes how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. The purpose of this book is to bring about a shift in consciousness, or in his words, an awakening. An essential part of this awakening is the recognition of the ego, and our attachment to things, the past, and enemies. In Oneness with All Life, Eckhart Tolle has picked the essential phrases and paragraphs - the gems of the book - that he feels are most important and reorganized them so listeners can focus on the most powerful ideas.

Eckhart Tolle encourages you to step into the space between thoughts and discover the joyous treasures that lie within. If your true self can’t be found in your job, your possessions, your body, or even the contents of your mind, then just who are you, anyway? Tolle has long considered this question - and with The Journey into Yourself, he guides listeners on a fascinating exploration beyond conceptual identities and into the timeless consciousness of the present moment.

We tend to think of meditation as a formal practice we block time out for each day. But what if every moment of your life was your meditation? For Eckhart Tolle, meditation shouldn't be approached as a chore or a means to an end. Rather, meditation is something that you live. "The aim of meditation," states Eckhart, "is that it eventually becomes your normal state of consciousness." Essential Meditations with Eckhart Tolle points the way toward this quiet, constant state of Presence - where practice gives way to the realization of your innermost identity.

The theme of this four-day retreat: "It's Always Now" The Now is inseparable from who you are at the deepest level. It is the prerequisite of Being. As you listen to the words on this tape, you participate in the retreat. To "retreat" means to step back - not only from the outer world, but also from the world in your head, the thinking mind. Allow the sound of the words to take you beyond words and beyond sound to the stillness within.

Story
Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one. In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are and learn to live and breathe freely.

A Mature Piece
This is a good lecture to listen to after reading "The Power of Now." I've looked through Tolle's other books and most seem to be a rehashing of "The Power of Now," a sort of commercialized industry. A few are good though. The "Art of Presence" is one such good audio to listen to on my Ipod when walking or doing other things.
The unique thing about the lecture is that Tolle can direct you to pause in order to reflect or delve into a subject at the appropriate moment. This is further enhanced by the question and answer period, where I can pause after each exchange or let each question and answer section flow into the other.
I've read in other reviews that some people are turned off by his strange laugh, which it is. But if you are turned off by his laugh, then you have missed his message because you are tuned into your ego. His laugh is in fact the aspect one could focus on because it relates to a variety of concepts he explicates--or doesn't explicate if you understand his way of informing. I don't think he even knows how his laugh is a key to his work.
I think an important point to keep in mind is that one shouldn't give up on the message simply because one doesn't like the messenger. I would also not recommend that one become a Tolle-freak disciple. Listen, learn, and adapt your take on his concepts.

Very poor sound quality
This a 7 hour recording of one of Eckarts recent retreats. As a devoded Eckhart listener I have heard many facets of this recording in other tape before but still think it is worthwhile hearing it again in a different setting. Unfortunately the sound quality of this recording is the worst I have experienced so far in retreat recordings.

Well worth it!
If your main focus is perfect digital quality, then No, it's not for you. Tolle has a German accent, but speaks clearly in English. I encounter no difficulties listening to this on my iPod. If your main focus is the message, this talk is fantastic! Tolle offers great insights into the workings of the human ego, and a practical guide to living each moment fully. For me, that's well worth being patient with some technical flaws.

The Art of Presence
This is the most recent talk as of January 1st 2008 that Audible has and is well worth the listen. I feel that Eckhart has in a way repackaged previous thoughts of philosophers. prophets and wise men through the ages. He has come up with new words for old words that have a millennia of baggage in their present form. But one thing is he speaks from his own experience of the Present Moment not what he read or heard. The power of this realization comes through loud and clear.
If you want to learn why you think and act a certain way and why others do what they do you can find it here in this listen. You can also learn how to change YOURSELF NOW
A Great talk

thoght provoking
This is a very easy to listen seminar that offers a modern and practical approach to the most basic precepts of Buddhism. I particularly enjoyed the fact that several ideas that I had on an intuitive level were here clearly exposed.
I found no problem with the audio quality, and was indeed happy with the relevance of the text.

Une réponse claire à : qui nous sommes, comment nous sommes, ce que
nous sommes, pourquoi nous sommes, pourquoi nous souffrons quand nous
ne sommes pas. La simple écoute, même si notre anglais n'est pas très
bon, nous place dans l'expérience de notre essence. Une compréhension
profonde s'installe, comme une libération.
