The Power Of Now

Post by koan »

Eckhart Tolle.

Vancouver dude.

It's not a new book, I just hate reading books that are trendy so I put it off. Must say I'm very impressed with his ability to state concepts simply and clearly. It's relatively deep philosophy but comes across as easy reading. Rather refreshing.

I actually recommend this book for people that either have or haven't read new age type books. It's a good reminder for those that are familiar with the concepts and eye opening for those that haven't considered how much of their world is illusion.

There is some circular logic and not all his "therefores" are adequately supported but I think he does remarkably well in comparison with more practiced gurus.
