Synopsis
Eckhart Tolle is a gentle guide for change, first in ourselves and then in the world. Addressing the dysfunction all around us, he encourages us to see the source--our egos, which he explains in some depth but also puts simply as "the voices in our head." Letting go of our egos, we will let go of much of our pain, and will be able to embark on a journey of discovery and "re-creation." There is much of the natural world in his argument, as he encourages us to connect to the things in the earth and sky that can bring enlightenment. Tolle reflects that we are microcosms of the larger universe, and that human consciousness and the physical world are connected. If we break free from old ways of thinking and seeing, we can change ourselves, individually and collectively. We can, in his view, create a "new species," one more fully awakened, that can then "re-create" Earth. A 2008 Oprah's Book Club selection.

Publisher's Note
lluminating, enlightening, and uplifting, A NEW EARTH is a profoundly spiritual guide to creating a better way of living and a better world to live in. Building on the astonishing success of THE POWER OF NOW, Eckhart Tolle presents readers with an honest look at the current state of humanity: He implores us to see and accept that this state, which is based on an erroneous identification with the egoic mind, is one of dangerous insanity. Tolle tells us there is good news, however. There is an alternative to this potentially dire situation. Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one. In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are--which is something infinitely greater than anything we currently think we are--and learn to live and breathe freely.

    A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle (2008). A good read for anyone wanting to further themselves or enlighten themselves to there real dreams and aspirations. If you like this book, you'll also love "The Secret" and the "Finding Your Own North Star" books.

    I don't like this book at all. I recomend extreme caution when reading this book. I purchased the book to see if what I had heard about it was true. The book teaches you that you can become your own god, and that you control your own destiny. This is false. You can not and never will be a god, or be able to control your eternity. This is a lie that most people have swollowed hook, line, and sinker. The Bible teaches that there is only One True God. God that made the world and all things there in. He sent His Son to die for us and pay the price for our sins. Except you repent and believe on the name of Jesus Christ with all your heart, you will surely spend your eternity in hellfire. That is TRUTH.
