ECKHART TOLLE BOOKS: RELIVING THE POWER OF NOW
With apologies to those who already know who Eckhart Tolle is, and for the benefit of those who have not heard of Eckhart Tolle at all, here’s a brief résumé: Eckhart Tolle is a motivational teacher, speaker, and writer of German origin who has lived most of his adult life in Canada. Today, at the age of 61, Tolle is one of the Western world’s most revered spiritual teachers, and his association with Oprah Winfrey – thanks to the 10-week live ‘webinar’ that Oprah conducted with him – has boosted his popularity among the masses considerably.
Write stuff
Tolle has thus far written four books, of which The Power of Now became a New York Times bestseller and was translated into 33 languages. Similarly, his latest book, A New Earth: Awakening to Life’s Purpose, has also topped the NYT bestsellers list. What’s more, Oprah has chosen A New Earth as part of Oprah’s Book Club, calling it one of her favorite reads. Both titles retain a basic similarity of themes. The Power of Now suggests that we not become so caught up in the past and the future that we lose touch with the present moment. In A New Earth, Tolle further explores the structure of the human ego and how it distracts us from the present experience of the world. According to Tolle, the increasing influence of the human ego is what lies at the root of all our inner and outer conflicts. Therefore, it is only by examining and restraining the ego that people will begin to see beyond it and gain spiritual enlightening.
Changing life
One reason for the enormous popularity of The Power of Now could be that it offers not just advice but solutions. On very accessible and popular concept in the book was that of ‘being the watcher of your thoughts’. This is a concept through which Tolle encourages a reader to watch his or her own thoughts in order to analyze how negative thoughts from the past can dominate the present. However, Tolle doesn’t intend you to judge yourself, because he seeks to awake your hidden consciousness, and help you get rid of ‘emotional pain’. That includes eradicating pain that has more or less been ‘implanted’ in you by your family or social surroundings, but which is not born out of your own experiences. These points are again beautifully intergrated into another of his books- Stillness Speaks.
Books and beyond
It seems appropriate that Tolle has put so much down in his books, because books have always influenced him, In an interview available online, he says, “First I picked up a copy of the New Testament almost by accident… and reading the words of Jesus and feeling the essence and power behind those words… So that was an incredible realization, just reading and understanding ‘beyond mind’ the deeper meaning of those words… Then came the Bhagavad Gita, I also had an immediate, deep understanding of and an incredible love for such a divine work. The Tao Te Ching: also an immediate understanding… I knew the translator had misunderstood, and knew what the real meaning was although I do not know any Chinese… Then I also started reading on Buddhism and immediately understood the essence of Buddhism… I have a great love for the teaching of the Buddha, a teaching of such power and sublime simplicity.” Given such influences, is it any wonder that Tolle can influence your life with his books?
