Product Description

The highly anticipated follow-up to the 2,000,000 copy bestselling inspirational book, The Power of Now

With his bestselling spiritual guide The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle inspired millions of readers to discover the freedom and joy of a life lived "in the now." In A New Earth, Tolle expands on these powerful ideas to show how transcending our ego-based state of consciousness is not only essential to personal happiness, but also the key to ending conflict and suffering throughout the world. Tolle describes how our attachment to the ego creates the dysfunction that leads to anger, jealousy, and unhappiness, and shows readers how to awaken to a new state of consciousness and follow the path to a truly fulfilling existence.

The Power of Now was a question-and-answer handbook. A New Earth has been written as a traditional narrative, offering anecdotes and philosophies in a way that is accessible to all. Illuminating, enlightening, and uplifting, A New Earth is a profoundly spiritual manifesto for a better way of life—and for building a better world.

From Publishers Weekly
According to Tolle, who assumes the role of narrator as well, humans are on the verge of creating a new world by a personal transformation that shifts our attention away from our ever-expanding egos. This idea is well realized through Tolle's remarkably well-paced narration. Naturally, the author understands his material so thoroughly that he is able to convey it in an enjoyable manner, but Tolle's gentle tone and dialect begs his audience's attention simply through its straightforward approach. Something about this reading just seems profoundly important, whether one agrees with the material or not, and listeners' attention is sure to be captured within seconds of listening to Tolle's take on the universe in which we live. Originally released in 2005, both book and audiobook were reissued when Oprah Winfrey chose the title for her book club this year. A Penguin paperback. (Feb.)

Customer Reviews

Makes you think...
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!

Not worth the paper on which it was printed...unless it gets recycled.
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.

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 !!
