I love Eckhart Tolle, thus below my comments reflect my passion for his teachings. As you know everything is relative, in this case, my review is relative to my personal experience.
The most profound book I have ever read. Finally I have touched the depth of consciousness. When you are ready, you may understand it. Otherwise, it may be a heavy book. It's like giving a computer book to a technology savvy versus someone that is not familiar with computers. I have also read every other book of this author. I find this book to be the starting book into the author philosophy. This book will help you understand other books that may be more difficult without this base knowledge such as The New Earth. There are several other spiritual teachers, but this Author is the only one that is truly effective that contains substance making a difference in my life. Other authors always leave me with nothing, lot's of words that don't lead anywhere.
This book was given to me from a friend and it was the best experience ever that changed my life. I am glad she pushed me to start reading it, because I kept it on my bookshelf for weeks. Once I started reading it I was astonished and since then my life changed, my eyes were opened. However, not everyone is ready to understand. I have tried sharing it with some other people, but not everyone was able to read it. Since my background of meditation, spirituality, and introspection, this book came easy to read and understand. For me this book was the missing block from my spiritual path.
Thanks Eckhart Tolle for helping humans make it to the next stage of consciousness.
Good luck and I hope that anyone coming across this book is ready to discover the realm of non-thinking, non-judging, non-labeling. I would say, this is a non-mystical, clear understanding of what's behind religions. This can help any person to understand more their religious/spiritual path. The book is neutral, it doesn't favor any religion over another. It brings everything together into one as it should be.
My message to everyone:
Gaining more knowledge doesn't make people wise. Wisdom should be developed in pair with knowledge. Too much thinking stresses you out. Practice meditation. Discover the ego in you (we all have it), but you don't have to listen to it. The mind wants to think taking you away from what you are currently doing. Be aware of compulsive-recurring thoughts that are draining your energy. You should be able to stop the flow of thoughts, regain energy, feel at peace, in between daily tasks. This will bring wisdom in your actions. Otherwise, stress can only led you to poor results, poor performance, poor outcome. Empower yourself with gaps of non-thinking, which will make you experience FREEDOM. That's were you can find freedom, in your head only. It's nice to stop the mind flow of thoughts. You'll feel light, free, happy, and worry-free. Otherwise, your mind keeps generating thoughts causing you to be slave of recurring/compulsive thinking. That's why people drinks or get drugs (legal and illegal), to experience freedom from your mind that never stop stressing you out. Alcohol causes more issues than benefits, same as some drugs. Learn how to become free from your mind and from addictions. Then you can start enjoy life and express yourself at your full potential. This book is a pointer to freedom. Here is the door, can you open it and discover what's in it?

The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment by Eckhart Tolle
- LesleyReviewed in the Netherlands on October 28, 2022
What an incredible book…
This is the first book I’m reading by Eckhart Tolle and really fully on the subject of Enlightenment. I have been a Christian for 16 years and man did I get a new perspective on things. The book speaks to YOU past your mind and brings in new flood of light and knowledge that shines through the fog and clutter that is the mind. I started reading and I kept reading and barely could put it down.LesleyWhat an incredible book…

It’s like I’ve gone on a spiritual retreat and I can feel my body within dancing to the knowledge it has received. The book is a bit challenging to get into at the start but the concepts and what is being discussed solidifies as you read and they gain hold. There’s no multiple messages or elaborate plan and step of what you hve to do. The message is simple, repeated and consistent - and that message is NOW.
I encourage you to read it or struggle through it if needs be but don’t give up on it. It has potential to change your life. My has already changed- within! And this will ofcourse affect my life situation

Excelente mensaje, lo recomiendo ampliamente. Yo lo leí hace un año y me fascinó, éste lo pedí para regalo de Navidad. En esta edición me gustó que es de portada dura, un diseño bonito, clásico y elegante. El que lo recibió puso una sonrisa al desenvolverlo. Me gustó también que me llegó en caja, no sé si fue por ser envío internacional, pero siento que así no se maltrató, ya que por lo general otros libros me han llegado en bolsa.HolaRecomendado
