Life Changing! August 22, 2010
BuddingWriter (Connecticut)
Every now and then a book comes along that completely changes your life or perspective if you let it, and this is the one. Tolle opens with a look at our own insanity and madness and and proposes that we are at a real crossroads in our existence. Evolve or die. I suggest that many more people sit for an hour or so and just contemplate how mad our society really is. The same minds that create technology to repair the human body also invent weapons to destroy it.
The whole premise of why we are the way we are in Tolle's mind is the ego present in all of us. He then gives a very long and detailed look into just what the ego is. Once we recognize it, we can stop its stranglehold on us.
This book was meant to be studied over a long period of time with a good teacher. Which is why many people say that its similar to Buddhist teachings. It would have been perfect if it offered a list of excercises to help people to free themselves of the ego, but I think he saved that for another book. After all, freeing from the ego can be a life's work, which is called enlightenment in Buddhism, and its no easy task. I read this book at least once a month and am glad I found it in my life.

If you have ever heard and caught the meaning of "fake plastic trees" by Radiohead, you get the point. It looks just like the real thing, feels just like the real thing....but its fake plastic. Meditate on that and skip this book.
Awakening is essential August 15, 2010

Albert Einstein said, "No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it." In A New Earth, Eckhart Tolle describes and puts us in the feel of a shift in consciousness that can solve humanities' problems of intolerance, hatred, violence and competition. If you seek to make this shift yourself, Tolle's books will a valuable resource. Is this shift real? Yes. In my work as a psychiatrist and as a licensed Avatar Master, I see awakenings everyday. Some may be considered small, but none are insignificant. For example, as Tolle guides us to experience the "inner body," the mind quiets and senses heighten. This is a calmer yet more alert state of consciousness that will not react from fear but can act with wisdom and compassion. What a gift to yourself and those around you.
Enlightening August 12, 2010
P. Gehrig (Basel, Switzerland)
Eckhart has hit upon an essential topic of our time. His insights into our character as humans help pinpoint the shift needed throughout the whole of humanity. A necessary read for those awakening to the new consciousness which is now upon us.
