About this listen

Perhaps you can recall a time when you felt more alive than at any other moment — when you had a sudden recognition of beauty, a feeling of deep contentment, and a sense of connection with life greater than you had ever thought possible. And then, this fleeting moment was gone.

What if you could recapture that remarkable opening, and make it a consistent way of living in the world? Throughout Europe and North America, a man named Eckhart Tolle has emerged as a teacher with the unique ability to draw us into the awakened state he calls "presence." With Realizing the Power of Now: An In-Depth Retreat with Eckhart Tolle, you have an unparalleled opportunity to immerse yourself in the timeless dimension — a place within us that always is and ever will be beyond the turmoil of life, a world of calm beyond words, of joy that has no opposite.

A walk in nature. A personal crisis. A moment of laughter. These can all serve as portals that take us to the depth and wonder of the Now. But how do we access these portals so that we dwell in presence more and more often? With Tolle's guidance, you will discover many simple ways to leave behind the chaos and suffering of the mind-made world, and enter this state of serenity and grace. Tolle will show you how to go beyond the endless stream of thoughts, and simply allow whatever is happening to occur...use sense perceptions and your "inner body" to find a peace that exists independent of conditions...see past "the little me and my story" and find your home in the "living Now."

Awesome.

If your mind is never still and you find it difficult to relax , this is the book for you. Eckhart has such a soothing, calming voice, with a cute little laugh, makes me feel better wen I need an uplift, he’s very knowledgeable indeed, and talks so much sense. I recommend listening to the power of now-if you haven’t already.

Another Great Book

Full of relevant stuff ... told as usual kindly, directly with humour. Reassuring voice and words that speak to the soul. The only Teacher I have encountered who can say so much with silence and words ..

great book bad audio

Such a lovely book and great presentation from Tolle. Shame about the audio, giggling in the back ground at points took the edge off a lot for me.

Beautiful

All older recordings from Eckhart are extremely interesting. I think the new ones are not as deep unfortunately.

Wonderful

If you are interested in learning about mindfulness then this is a wonderful audiobook.

I like all of Eckhart Tolle's books, but I particularly like this retreat, when you can hear the audience laughing in recognition at the absurdity of the things we worry about and Eckhart's frequent, gentle, chuckle. When I am stressed or worried, I find this very calming. Yes, it is slow, but that's the point. Slow down and be present in the moment.

Having listened to it several times, I also find it perfect for helping me to switch off and go to sleep if I am getting into repetitive worry and thoughts that are keeping me awake.

Maybe the other reviewer is right and you will either love it or hate it. I love it.

Highly recommend, but not as an introduction to Tolle

This audiobook is a recording of a retreat and is helpfully broken down into six one hour chapters. I listened to each one a few times to digest the concepts and go through it in a couple of weeks on my commute to work. If you’re new to Tolle, start with The Power of Now then A New Earth. Once you’re familiar with his theories this is a really powerful next step. Some of the background noise and the way the chuckles to himself is a little annoying at times but it’s minor compared to the very powerful messages contained here. Nothing especially new but his positioning of accepting what is helped me to a deeper level of understanding. Highly recommended.

stunning

absolutely stunning insight into the egoic self and mind patterns. If you're going through an awakening then this book and anything Eckhart teaches is a wonderful way to understand how you're feeling. A beautiful wonderful man who I feel blessed to have come across 🙏🏻
