Summary
Celebrating 25 Years as a New York Times Bestseller — Over 16 Million Copies Sold

It’s no wonder that The Power of Now has sold over 16 million copies worldwide and has been translated into over 30 foreign languages. Much more than simple principles and platitudes, the book takes readers on an inspiring spiritual journey to find their true and deepest self and reach the ultimate in personal growth and spirituality: the discovery of truth and light. In the first chapter, Tolle introduces readers to enlightenment and its natural enemy, the mind. He awakens readers to their role as a creator of pain and shows them how to have a pain-free identity by living fully in the present. The journey is thrilling, and along the way, the author shows how to connect to the indestructible essence of our Being, “the eternal, ever-present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are subject to birth and death.” Featuring a new preface by the author, this paperback shows that only after regaining awareness of Being, liberated from Mind and intensely in the Now, is there Enlightenment.

This is just like The Matrix. After reading/listening to this book, you have two choices. 1. Close your eyes, put your hands over your years and yell, "La la la la la," so you can go back to the false reality and pretend like you never heard it. 2. Experience a truly transformative shift like you could never expect.

This book will definitely change your point of consciousness and will be a great support when you forget who you are and what's going on.

Profile Avatar Raul S Apr 2017

This is a very powerful and blow minding book. And the fact that it is narrated by Eckhard Tolle, makes it more powerful and awakening. I have listened twice and it opened my inner senses.

Profile Avatar Dan C Jun 2017

Life changing! I read the hard copy and this audio version reinforces the message. Eckhart's voice is so calming.

Profile Avatar Nicole Davidsohn Feb 2016

I give this as a gift to all I love and care about. Escaping the modern world of thought prisons is essential for a better quality of life. I've listened to this book 3 times in the past year to remind me of its valuable lessons. I'm also purchasing a paper copy to have on hand for quotes and reminders. Enlightenment requires no reminders, but I'm not there yet...

One of the best books ever!

Profile Avatar Lloyd Braithwaite Aug 2015

Amazing book. Definitely helps to eliminate fear and live in the present. All we have is now, so learn to embrace and thrive in it.

Profile Avatar Deb Hodl Dec 2016

There is not enough of a preview on this book or I never would have purchased it. It is horrible and way off track.

Profile Avatar Kim Mitch Sep 2015

Great book to use as a tool of learning, how to be in control of your happenings with your physical body And to also not to just accept conditions around you . Live in the Now, Live in the moment. Stay positive . Take control over your own mind. Keep love and peace in your soul. Yours truly, An Old Soul

Profile Avatar Tarzimanov Oct 2023

Probably the most profound thing I’ve ever read. The only thing that comes close are Alan Watt’s’ lectures. But to have it all compiled in one book, like in Power of Now, it’s definitely a must read.

Profile Avatar John G. Nov 2023

I give myself 30 minutes a day to listen to my audio books, after 1 hour and 56 mins I had to stop to do other things, this is worth every second or my time and every penny i paid for it. 5 Stars is an understatement for this book and author.

Profile Avatar Dmitriy S. Sep 2023

Great book! In fact more than just a book as it may change your life beyond one can imagine.

Profile Avatar NikiCl Jan 2023

There are many reasons for a number one rating but let’s start with the sheer fact of the introduction being so sells pitchy about Mindvalley and his books and his PDF, his speeches. I was really hoping that as time went on that would dissipate. Heads up, it doesn’t. This is one long book of sales pitching. With that aside, I felt this book could’ve been summed up and maybe one page bullet point. It dragged on and on and was very repetitive. The author clearly likes certain people in higher power, so much so that you wonder what sort of contract was signed to have so much name dropping. Then the author comes up with “new words” that are unnecessary. They are more distracting than anything. I really think this book should be more of a memoir.

Profile Avatar Phil P. May 2022

Phenomenal concept and book. narrator was difficult to stay focused on at times though.

Profile Avatar Anonymous Sep 2023

Well worth a listen. All lives would benefit from consuming the information in this book! Many topics may be hard to comprehend if this type of info is new to you, but the only way to become more "enlightened" in any subject is to first begin. I recommend this book to anyone who is on the path of self mastery / enlightenment, or to anyone who simply wants to become a more conscious human.

I love this book made me so much more self-aware.

Profile Avatar Ansen Iyaloo Nov 2022

Very smart way of translating a simple yes abstract message of realigning oneself to what really matters. Some of us go throughout life in search of the moment, of feeling alive, of happiness, and of what really matters.. and yet it is all around us and at this very moment. Really enjoyed this book, and thank you to narrate it Sir!

Profile Avatar Mary L. Feb 2021

i've been a devotee since 1998 when a friend gave me three CDs, The Realization of Being, Understanding the Pain Body, and The Sun Will Also Die, by Eckhart Tolle. To call him the gift to the 20th and 21st century is an understatement. I should be on his payroll I've given away so many copies of TPON...!! Listening to him through these platforms I find extremely comforting, as he reminds me my being is universal and my "fears" insubstantial. "It's not what the eyes see, it's that the eyes can see ... this is God, and not what this world adores. " so to speak.

Profile Avatar Michael R. Oct 2018

This book has some useful insights, however it treats looking towards the future and looking in the past has some sort of mental disease. Humans evolved to look forward as well as backward so they could improve their lives in the now. It is really just a matter of balance.

I read this book years ago,but bought the audio version to re-visit it’s valuable information....Love his narration

Profile Avatar Michael R Sep 2017

This book introduced me to new ways of thinking, especially thinking about thinking, and where I stand on spirituality. Personally, I am an atheist, so my mind, like many others, is rather open and I find eastern spiritual teachings to be supplementive to my lifestyle. The new patterns of thinking have manifested into positive behaviors which has turned into positive results in many things that I do. Tolle takes readers through an amazing journey with lines like, "If you hear a car alarm go off and it irritates you, why did you create the irritation?" He, of course, is begging the question, why should we allow things that we cannot control, pervade our mind? This is one amongst many enlightening gems inside his book, "The Power of Now" and I have and will recommend this book to anyone who is interesting in spirituality. Listening to this book has also allowed me to acquire a certain conversational currency that has opened doors to other exciting novels. In short, this is an amazing book that is simple yet profound. Quit reading reviews and by it already, if you're considering it then.

Beautiful. Eckhart Tole reads this book and his voice is mesmerising. This is a book you'll want to refer to in both hard copy and audio formats.

Profile Avatar Anton Levchenko Oct 2016

A great book, it makes you see life differently. I think this book has the potential of changing your life. It made me realize that most "problems" that pollute my mind are extremely pointless to think about. After reading this book I am trying to shift my perspective and improve my happiness. A powerful book, but it's not a quick fix book, it's proposing a lifelong shift to peace. The narrator's voice is super relaxing.
