Customer Rating: Summary: Makes you think... Comment: I have read the book and am now in the process of listening to the book on CD's. Wow - I can relate to most everything Eckhart speaks to, but I am struggling with the "how" - how to put it into practice. I am going to be joining an "Eckhart Tolle" discussion group this week and hope to gain more insight by sharing in other's experiences during or after reading the book. Bottom Line...it just makes sense. I think anyone who picks up the book will have some ah-hah moments, but it does require some concentration and possibly reading certain parts over again to gain a better comprehension of what Eckhart is saying...worth your time - worth all of our time! Customer Rating: Summary: Not worth the paper on which it was printed...unless it gets recycled. Comment: What an awful waste of time! I feel like I have been swindled by the author. This is not new and it is not informative. I think what most people need to do to "awaken" is to simply take responsibility for their own lives. We don't need a watered down bible to tell us that. In fact, we don't need anything from the bible for a better life or to give us this breakthrough.
Please do yourself a favor and remove this item from your consideration and go for a long walk. It is much healthier and more eye opening. And, if you have purchased this book do what I did after reading it and recycle it rather than passing it on to someone else. Customer Rating: Summary: a new earth Comment: this review is written for Christians who think Oprah is the last word..
YOu need to be very careful Where you place your FAITH >
if it's in man/ woman.. then you are being made a joke !
Sorry folks .. but you can't be a Christ follower aka Christian and believe anything written in this book. You may try and argue the point. but you know in your heart of hearts I am speaking the truth.
When we judge if it's truth or deceit we need to compare it to the only truth , God's word the Holy Bible. PLEASE , please do not be deceived !
If you pay attention to Oprah's own words.. she admits to not following God.. So if she is telling the truth, you shouldn't use her as a guide.
She says there are many ways to God.. (Christ is the ONLY way )
She referrs to the "universe ' What's up with that ?? LOL it's laughable.
you know it is..
Sadly if more Americans / Christians read the Holy Bible with as much interest as they read the quick fix books of lies .. just imagine how "truth"fully 'enlightened' they would be :_)
PUT DOwn the trash and read the Truth !!
Customer Rating: Summary: Amazing insight! Comment: Tolle has done an amazing job with this book. The insight and wisdom is unmatched. He teaches us about consciousness which is the key to living in joy! This book is a great complement to Pearls of Wellness Pearls of Wellness 52 Inspirations to Achieve a Peaceful Body, Mind, and Spirit. Customer Rating: Summary: Powerful stuff Comment: He has some powerful ideas. The book "A New Earth; Awakening To Your Life's Purpose" helps one achieve the joy of living in the moment. The thinking part of your brain is just another process of your body like breathing according to Tolle. This book tries to teach you not to worry about the future or the past. There are lots of spiritual awakening moments you will enjoy.
If you are truly interested in a book on Spiritual awakening that you can really relate to, I recommend a great book entitled "The Enlightenment, What God Told Me After One Million Prayers: A Message for Everyone" by John H. Eagan. The content is just amazing
