The Power of Now by Eckart Tolle

[John Iverson]

What can you say about this book? I bought it haha! 

[Girzo]

It's good for starters. It doesn't scare you off and encourages to start a journey.

[Seeker_of_truth]

Its highly worth a read.

[ADD]

It's better than all Leo's videos put together. I recommend it for everyone to read.

[Ether]

@ADD lmao

[molosku]

If you like that one, i recommend reading some Rubert Spira afterwards! Those two have similiar tones in their speech

[tecladocasio]

@molosku rupert spira is much more deeper , read ''the intimacy of all experience'' as a ''noob'' and maybe you will think non-duality is just some crazy stuff that only crazy people believe

You have not seen the depth of this book. Re-read it

[Ether]

@Dodo If it scares you, its not enlighhtenment

[Max_V]

@Ether I would say the opposite. We are talking about your death here.

[Ether]

@Max_V Dude, its not going to kill you, you are not going to heaven. You will still be here, on Earth when you reach enllightenment. The difference is that you will be happy. I dont know where you guys get those nonsensical ideas from.

[Max_V]

@Ether It’s not an idea, when you have an experience of this yourself - even a very short one - you will know what I mean.

Lol it's non-duality happiness would be just as groundless as sadness. trust me you should be scared.

It's good.  I enjoyed it.  I feel like the Now never changes.  That's really the most important insight in Metaphysics.  The Now does not change.

This is a projection. Where did I say it scares me? The comment was saying that the book is for starters, but it in fact is for starters, intermediate and advanced. You only need to go deeper into the teaching. Sometimes even read between the lines.

I've never read it; I'm waiting for the movie ... Oh wait, I am the movie

Seriously, it's good you're checking out some ideas, and if that inspires deeper inquiry, then all the better.

I don't think so when that become a movie it will same and deep as in the book. Unless the director, and producers and all the team is enlightened... or Eckart will be responsible for all  the scenes that will show there
