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.

Through countless editions and across centuries, The Tibetan Book of the Dead has drawn people intrigued by the Tibetan Buddhist view of the end of life. In a world that often ignores death or hides it from view, Tibetan Buddhists acknowledge it as the last of a countless series of endings in this lifetime. And after each ending comes a new beginning. The Tibetan Book of the Dead for Beginners draws on this timeless wisdom to help listeners today live with more joy and approach the end with more ease.

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.

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.

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!
