I thought the Power of Now would say something about it being The Power of Now series. I got a Trilogy. It's OK. He sounds like he has had some elightenment experiences, but he seems to make fun of people and he has made up an image The Pain Body as a teaching tool, which he has begun to treat as fact. I know what he is talking about (I'm a bodyworker psychotherapist who works in trauma), and his map is not exactly accurate. He says that the pain body wants to fight. I don't think that is true. We imprint the way we are treated, and when we can't give it back to our offender, we are prone to scapegoat. So, he's a little off in my opinion for someone so highly regarded.

Unfortunatly, I had to return the collection due to the quality of the product. While the information is life transforming, the sound is very unclear. During Tolle's talks and meditations you hear coughing and even a wierd laugh from someone attending, every so often. I would highly recommend the CD of his book, The Power of Now. That is done professionally and worth every penny. The Audio Collection is the opposite. It's just thrown together and should be taken off the market and recorded again.

This product is wonderful!!! It arrived very quickly and in excellent condition. I love Tolle's work and will purchase more of his cd's.

When The Power of Now was first published, I couldn't get through it; I found it too cerebral. Then I listened to The Eckhart Tolle Audio Collection, a collection of his 3 audio bestsellers, and it all came together for me. After that, I quickly and easily read The Power of Now and his newest title, A New Earth. What an awakening! If you tend to learn better by listening than reading, check this audio collection out. It may just simplify what once appeared complicated. Eckhart is affecting world transformation with his teaching.

Echart Tolles CD collection was the next thing I bought after his book "The Power Of Now". The CD's are powerful because you get to hear the author speak and you gain much further insight into his work. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! A new book that just came out that has inspired me to no end is "This School Called Planet Earth" by Summer Bacon.

I have the book The Power of Now, published by New World Library.
In the front, it says that the librafy of congress catalogued the book in in 1948. Perhaps this is a misprint. But even if it were supposed to be 1998, Namaste publishing shows it in 1997.
At any event, I have no quarrel with its contents, except that it has all been said before, by Gurdjieff who plagiarized it from still other authors centuries before him. Gurdjieff died in 1949.
This is old, old stuff.
Carlos Castenada said it all.
Yogananda Paramahansa said it all.
Literally thousands of men before Yogananda, said it all.. ad infinitum, ad nauseum..

Alas, I can't recommend this collection.

There is nothing in this Audio Collection that isn't available more succinctly in the original Power of Now, a book that I consider a true, elegant masterpiece.

I've given my original copy away and listen to the audio version when I drive, which has become a very rich part of my day.

This is definitely the one of best books I have ever read. But, if I read this is my earlier years ( I am now 49), it probably would not have made alot of sense.

Reading "The Power of Now" helps me realize who I am, why I am here and live a more fullfilling and happier life.

It is not religious, but it actually improved what I found were shortcomings in how religion affects me. In fact, it was after a rather "crazy" experience of mine within the church that led me getting this book. Now, I see very clearly what was really happening and where my salvation truly is.

Eckhart Tolle, Thank God for you and your book.

I honestly listened to the first CD for only 5 minutes before I gave up on it. I bought the CDs to listen to in my car because I am a very busy person. After a couple minutes of trying to understand what he was saying and listening to someone coughing in the background I was extremely frustrated. His voice is very quite and hard to understand. I have listened to plenty of books on CD and this was definitely the worst. I might listen to it again when I'm having trouble sleeping.

Mr. Tolle allows truth to speak through him eloquently. The consciousness flowing through you will also begin to flower as it recognizes what it has always known. Just applying even a small part of these teachings can transform your experience of reality. "I watched a cat watching a mouse hole, and that is how I became present."

Are you ALWAYS thinking about something?
Do you rarely feel present in the moment?
How connected to your life do you feel?
Do you enjoy your constant mental monologue?
Do you use your Mind, or does your Mind use you?

While I certainly would never encourage anyone to consume more material goods than they already have, and even though I truly believe that you are lost if you continue to mindlessly purchase products only to feed your dilluted sense of self, I HIGHLY recommend these CD's to help you be more of who you know you are.

This is as good as spiritual teaching gets; observable truths and pragmatic guidance on living in accord with them. If you have any of the 3 previous cd's, this is a collection of them - no new stuff. If you don't, purchasing AND USING these will profoundly change your destiny.

ONCE YOU HAVE HEARD ECKHART TOLLE SPEAK AND SHARE HIS PRESENCE IN THE NOW YOU WILL BE AMAZED WITH HIS FRESHNESS AND UTTER AUTHENTICITY. THESE RECORDINGS EXUDE HIGHER CONSCIOUSNESS AND AWARENESS. ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL LISTENING WHICH COMPLIMENTS HIS INCREDIBLE BOOK "THE POWER OF NOW". WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD.
