"With a new preface by the author"--Cover

You are not your mind -- Consciousness : the way out of pain -- Moving deeply into the now -- Mind strategies for avoiding the now -- The state of presence -- The inner body -- Portals into the unmanifested -- Enlightened relationships -- Beyond happiness and unhappiness there is peace -- The meaning of surrender

To make the journey into The Power of Now we will need to leave our analytical mind and its false created self, the ego, behind. From the beginning of the first chapter we move rapidly into a significantly higher altitude where one breathes a lighter air, the air of the spiritual. Although the journey is challenging, Eckhart Tolle offers simple language and a question and answer format to guide us. The words themselves are the signposts. The book is a guide to spiritual awakening from a man who has emerged as one of this generation's clearest, most inspiring teachers. Eckhart Tolle is not aligned with any particular religion but does what all the great masters have done: shows that the way, the truth, and the light already exist within each of us
