Spiritual teacher and author Eckhart Tolle was born in Germany and educated at the Universities of London and Cambridge. At the age of twenty-nine a profound inner transformation radically changed the course of his life. The next few years were devoted to understanding, integrating, and deepening that transformation, which marked the beginning of an intense inward journey. Later, he began to work in London with individuals and small groups as a counselor and spiritual teacher. Since 1995 he has lived in Vancouver, Canada. Eckhart Tolle is the author of the New York Times bestsellers The Power of Now (translated into 33 languages) and A New Earth, which are widely regarded as two of the most influential spiritual books of our time. In 2008, A New Earth became the first spiritual book to be selected for Oprah's Book Club as well as the subject of a ten-week online workshop co-taught by… Read more
I think Tolle is probably someone that has learned that he can make a living at talking about the sublime more than an actual pioneer of the metaphysical realm. However, his talks are interesting and do make sense in terms of imparting a sense that what he is talking about is correct. So he's not just a TV evangelist type, selling his warez in order to buy nice toys. But in the zen spirit of "those who speak don't know and those who know dont speak", he does talk a lot. In spite of that, listening to him through audiobook format after smoking a bowl can an interesting, if not almost profound, adventure in your mind.
BTW - this isn't an audioBOOK. It's a recording of a live presentation - a very helter-skelter presentation too, I might add. Good luck getting anything from it except a lot of rambling bullshit. His (audio) book "The Power of Now" at least has some ensemble of communicating something. Maybe if you do a couple hits of LSD this recording would make more sense. [kidding]
