This book is what I would call the other book of life. This books gives you the simple version of what religious entities have sought to do for thousands of years.
The most amazing book I've ever read... and I've read a lot. September 12, 2008

I lived with negativity in my life for years: grievances, fear, anxiety, panic, etc. I became a self-help junkie and immersed myself in a ton of self-help/personal growth material. I read one book after another. I listened to audio programs. It was a continous cycle that lasted almost four years. "The Power of Now" broke that cycle.
I was so identified with mind that I read the book once but it really didn't hit home with me. But it was as if a small seed was planted in me (as described in the book). I started practicing presence little by little and noticed profound positive changes. And then I decided to read the book a second time around. It was at that point that I really started getting amazing results.
Why was I a self-help junkie? I wanted to let go of negative energy and be at peace. Out the numerous books I read, "The Power of Now" was the only book that allowed me to FULLY let go of negative energy and experience peace for the first time in well over a decade.
Tolle points out that unless you're really fed up with suffering, you won't make that choice to become more present-oriented and thus be more at peace. I was a self-help junkie because I was fed up with the intense negativity in my life. I continued practicing presence and out of the blue, totally unexpected, I had what you may call an enlightenment experience. I read the book again for the third time due to the experience. I was so amazed. I had a deeper understanding of what Tolle was talking about, particularly in Chapter One. The first two times I read the book, I didn't understand what he was getting at because I never had the experience. But after having that experience, those words TOTALLY made sense. And I can't imagine any author expressing that any more crystal clear than Tolle.
I've had conversations with many people about this book. It seems to me that this book will hit home most with those who have suffered big time. Whereas people who don't have it so bad will lack the motivation to look into this.
