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.

Life Changing! August 22, 2010

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.
