About this listen

Celebrating 25 Years as a New York Times Bestseller — Over 16 Million Copies Sold

It’s no wonder that The Power of Now has sold over 16 million copies worldwide and has been translated into over 30 foreign languages. Much more than simple principles and platitudes, the book takes readers on an inspiring spiritual journey to find their true and deepest self and reach the ultimate in personal growth and spirituality: the discovery of truth and light. In the first chapter, Tolle introduces listeners to enlightenment and its natural enemy, the mind. He awakens readers to their role as a creator of pain and shows them how to have a pain-free identity by living fully in the present. The journey is thrilling, and along the way, the author shows how to connect to the indestructible essence of our Being, “the eternal, ever-present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are subject to birth and death.” Featuring a new preface by the author, this paperback shows that only after regaining awareness of Being, liberated from Mind and intensely in the Now, is there Enlightenment.

What the critics say

For me, this is the Mama Jama of super-soulful books. At every moment, it keeps me in a state of awe and amazement.” — Oprah Winfrey

“One of the best books to come along in years. Every sentence rings with truth and power.” — Deepak Chopra, author of The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success

“A marvelous wake-up call. Tolle’s message rings loud and clear. It is right here, we only have to wake up to it. I heartily recommend this profoundly inspiring book to all seekers today.” — Lama Surya Das, author of Awakening the Buddha Within

Editorial Review

Our world is full of distractions, impressions and false fronts which are stopping us from connecting with our true selves. The Power of Now shows the listener how to strip away the weighty expectations of our modern world, and unlock the keys to tranquility and inner happiness.

Learn to be present and engage in the moment, focusing on the now. Let go of stresses and worries that come with looking too far forward, or guilt and regrets from clinging to the past. Eckhart Tolle will take you on a journey of peace and understanding that will help you find balance, true identity, and above all, self-love.

Like any self-narrated work, the listener is able to hear directly from the writer for a truly authentic listening experience. Tolle presents his work in a question and answer format that is both clear and direct. Through self reflection and hard work, he will lead you on the path of empowerment.

As a German-born Canadian spiritual teacher, Tolle has garnered great success and fame across the nation as well as internationally. His techniques and results are well loved, and his teachings have helped many Canadians find a sense of inner calm and peace. From O, the Oprah Magazine to best seller lists, his work and his teachings have stood the test of time, continuing to be a popular choice for more than 20 years.

This book is the key to unlocking the door to our spiritual awakening. The answers have truly been laying dormant in us all along. Are you interested in true personal enlightenment?

Our present day existence is quickly becoming mired in negativity, unhappiness and confusion. Over working leads to stress, anxiety and depression. My doctor recently told me that 80% of his patient's visits are directly related to one of these. Mental health is silently under siege and becoming the most important health issue of our current era.

Most of us are walking around disconnected from the true source/meaning of life, in an unconscious state taken over by the ego and the mind. We are constantly re-living the past and hoping for a better tomorrow all the while forgetting about the most important place of all, the Present. It is here and deep within ourselves that we can find and confront/heal our pains and be free from all fear, unhappiness and anger.

Mr. Tolle is an expert in the subject matter because he personally has dealt with such in his own life. He has mixed his experiences with his adept interpretations from other spiritual and religious teachings and combined them in a way that makes perfect sense.

I personally worked myself into the ground in the last year and have been slowly making my way back. I would never wish to relive that again but deep down inside I am glad it happened because I believe now that it was time for me to change my path in life (it's never too late). This book has opened my eyes and spirit anew, I have already made great strides in not only getting better but being happier and healthier than ever before.

I believe that Mr. Tolle wrote this book not for $$$s like most out there, but because he truly understands & cares about the current state of people's being. I have read it twice and will read it again to reinforce the important teachings that he has bestowed in this book.

If you are unhappy, wondering why you can't get over certain things from your past, or seem unable to get out of negative loops in your life... the time maybe now to get a fresh perspective and find the real meaning of it all deep down inside.

Take care and I hope you find the profound enlightenment that I did inside these pages. Thank you Eckhart, you are a modern day Sage!

A special tome for sprituality in our present day

I was religious as a child, then went to atheist, began looking into my spirituality a bit more, came across this book... in combination with practice, it’s basically a recipe for peace. Cause that’s the real goal to life. After checking those Maslow boxes this book will be the last one. Contents there, his voice is soothing, and he breaks down the abstract concepts into manageable metaphors.

Self actualization

This book does not provide a bandage over lifes inconveniences. By following the superior and ultimate laws of the universe, one cuts through time and thoroughly severs themself from the stubborn and relentless challenges of linear existence. Simply by placing attention away from the emotions and intellectual mind and into the now, we free ourselves from the past, future, and difficult people. Neither the past nor the future exist in doing this, Eckhart explains. Very liberating.

Eckhart Tolle can change your life if you are ready. I wasn’t ready for a long time...It’s been 8 years since I discovered Eckhart Tolle and his teachings of the pain body. I let my pain body take me over for many years, and suffered greatly, including the last 8 (even though I knew of its existence.) I understand now though, and have surrendered to the present moment. Don’t let your ego ruin your joy any longer. I believe that this audiobook can certainly be the spiritual awakening that you’ve been seeking (but you must believe in what you’re really capable of doing as a human being first.) Start by making my review headline your daily mantra- those words helped me a great deal to understand. Thank you Eckhart for sharing your wisdom with all of us!

I am not my body, I am not my mind, I am the observer!

If you are not into traditional new age speaking and writing styles you may find this audio book to be a bit quirky and old fashioned, but if you listen carefully to the various stories and explanations suddenly you feel the timeless lessons and the author's tone have a very soothing effect. Your understanding of various transcendental concepts will wash over you in waves. I am going to listen again because I fully expect some ah-ha moments to spring forth with each subsequent listening.

Interesting and transcendent perspectives abound
