From Publishers Weekly
Tolle is well known for his teachings on stillness and inner peace, including his bestseller The Power of Now; he's also known for Findhorn, a spiritual community and retreat center in Scotland. Listeners can experience Tolle and Findhorn themselves in this audio production, which includes four talks he gave during a two-day retreat. Each CD contains one hour-long talk and focuses on a different aspect of stillness and learning how to live in the moment. Tolle's charming delivery is gently humorous but also pointed in his instruction. It's a delight to hear the audience laughing in the background as he softly encourages attendees to grab hold of the magic of the moment. No table of contents is provided with the set, and while the packaging is compact and lovely, the CDs tend to fall out easily. But for Tolle's followers who can't make it to Findhorn, this is the next best thing. Listeners eager to learn more about Tolle's teaching will glean much. Simultaneous release with the New World Library hardcover and DVD set. (Jan.)

From AudioFile
In previous audios, the author's serious and slow-moving lessons showed how being in the moment allows a connection with reality that is free from intellectual conventions, judgments, and restrictive characterizations. In this audio, Tolle says that conventional thoughts and worldly activities are "forms" that are useful in dealing with various elements of the real world but misleading when used to define ourselves. The highest value and most free expression of our unique selves can be found when we reject these forms as definitions of who we are. The author's profound spiritual wisdom and, in this recording, his endearing charm make his simple message arresting, enlightening, and potentially life-changing.

Customer Reviews

inner peace
this is a fabulous set. i've only just borrowed it from my neighbor, but i don't know how i'm ever going to give it back. i've already listened to two of the CD's twice, but all four are wonderful. i believe it was in the third one that i 'woke up' for a few brief and wonderous moments. eckhart was talking about rolling up the scroll on which you have writen your life story...and so i did. it didn't last long, but it was the best i've ever felt. it was as if nothing would ever bother me again. i was unbotherable :) my mind was completely silent.

lovely.

Soothing Retreat
I love this cd. I would have given it 5 stars for content but the recording isn't great in the beginning. If you like Eckhart then this will be a nice addition as he uses a lot of humor at this retreat and it made me laugh at the folly of us all in everyday life. But, if you are only going to buy one cd, then buy the cd of his book "A NEW EARTH". So much more information.

Find peace in this book...
I am so glad I bought this book. The DVD's and book are so clarifying and powerful. If you wonder about how your life could be better. If you find yourself worrying about past or future events. This book is for you. It's transformative. It's a spa for the mind.
