The
Power of Now : A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment
By Eckhart
Tolle
Living in the present moment is a powerful experience when understood
in its fullness. For many individuals, an excessive amount of time

only place we can experience life and its inherent power and joy is
in the now moment. The power of living in the present moment holds
the key to personal wholeness and transformation. This book is well
written and presents a strong case for living more fully in the present
moment. Tolle brilliantly explains the perennial philosophy of living
in the here and now in a manner that is highly accessible to the western
mind. I highly recommend this book for individuals interested in their
own personal development and enlightenment. |
