Reviews

Praise for Eckhart Tolle and his work

"[Oprah] Winfrey calls the book 'a wake-up call for the entire planet, one reader at a time. It helps us to distance ourselves from our egos . . . and to open ourselves to a higher self. . . . It helps us to stop creating our own suffering and obsessing over the past and what the future might be, and to put ourselves in the now.'"
—USA Today

"I would do anything to be anywhere in the vicinity of Eckhart Tolle." 
—Jim Carrey

"A gentle journey, one that could take you to a spectacular and very special place of new awareness and deeper understanding." 
—Neale Donald Walsh, author of Conversations with God

"One of the best books to come along in years. Every sentence rings with truth and power—the power to bring you into the gap, the space between our thoughts, where we find, as Eckhart so beautifully puts it, deep serenity, stillness, and a sacred Presence."
—Deepak Chopra, author of The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success
