eckhart tolle
i’m reading his book, “a new earth”, and so far i am finding it incredibly refreshing to know that i’m not alone in my own theories of what’s next.
he’s put in words everything that i’ve wanted to tell people for years now. i’ve tried. most people look at me like i’m a loon. some actually listen and investigate things for themselves. it’s important, someone had to teach it – and eckhart is very good at educating the masses. his book was on the book club list for oprah, which means thousands of people have read it just from watching and listening to oprah. maybe hundreds of thousands. hopefully. and hopefully each one has passed the book to someone else who needs to know.
is there anybody out there who has read this book and can offer their own insights?
I am so greatful to Eckhart Tolle and Oprah for turning me onto Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor and her beautiful book “”My Stroke of Insight”". Her story is amazing and her gift to all of us is a book purchase away I’m happy to say.
Dr Taylor was a Harvard brain scientist when she had a stroke at age 37. What was amazing was that her left brain was shut down by the stroke – where language and thinking occur – but her right brain was fully functioning. She experienced bliss and nirvana and the way she writes about it (or talks about it in her now famous TED talk) is incredible.
What I took away from Dr. Taylor’s book above all, and why I recommend it so highly, is that you don’t have to have a stroke or take drugs to find the deep inner peace that she talks about. Her book explains how. “”I want what she’s having”", and thanks to this wonderful book, I can! Thank you Dr. Taylor, and thank you Eckhart and Oprah.
wow, thank you for the recommendation! this sounds like a book i need to read.
