Editor reviews

One of the most influential spiritual teachers in the world today, Eckhart Tolle, has written and narrated his enlightening audiobook A New Earth, which details his belief that humans have the power within themselves to change life on earth to a peaceful, harmonic existence for all species. He strongly opposes the egoism of mankind and through this incredible book, helps us all to look inside ourselves and change our consciousness so that we in turn can spread love and peace throughout the world. Having this brilliant book on audio helps to give you guidance from Tolle’s teachings wherever you are. Available now from Audible.

Summary

Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle presents listeners 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.

Mind-blowing Stuff

I must be honest here, I have spent my life so far being a bit of a cynic about anything that isnt completely factual with the exception of emotions and creativity, and am as such a total atheist. But I'd been having a hard time and was informed by reliable sources (ie. Russell Brand...) that this book is pretty remarkable.

The opening lines of the book had my sighing and preparing myself to be utterly correct in my preconception that this would be a very hippie dippie book and would not on any level relate to me or my life, with its subject of the beauty of flowers. As beautiful as I agree flowers are I initially did not see how this was relevant.

Throughout the course of this book I had several moments of pure clarity and a genuine challenge to my previously held beliefs that I found utterly fascinating. I am, probably to my detriment, a very opinionated person and I really appreciate and enjoy anything that legitimately changes my mind.

This book changed my mind.

If you can get past the connected one-ness of the universe dialogue and see the truth that lies between the lines of what I initially thought to be meaningless. At least to me anyway.

And it genuinely helped. I'm not going to go into my personal issues in a book review, and everyone has their own intricately differing situations, but it was refreshing to see things from a new perspective and therapeutic to have the soothing voice of Eckhart reading his wisdom aloud, like my own personal therapist.

Pure Genius... but play it a double speed

Seriously I love the work of Eckhart Tolle but if I had listened at normal speed I would have had to give this a 1 star review. He speaks so painfully slowly and without any drama or character to his voice that it is almost impossible to listen.

The audible app allows you to play back at different speeds and what do you know if you play him at 1.5x he sounds much better.

One of the best...

This is one of the best books I have ever read. If you want to make the most out of it, listen, pause and think. Maybe also grab a pen and some paper and jot down ideas. You won't regret it!

Even better as a talking book

I loved this book when I was first give it in India by a wonderful and selfless man who thought I needed it (and I did). I will ever be in his debt. This book truly changed my life by changing the way I respond to the 'chattering' in my head. I hope it will do the same for you. Buy it and listen, but be warned, this is not a book for the car, I found my concentration was on the book and certainly not on the road.

Profound and life changing

Very rarely do I come across perspectives and teachings that affect me the way this one did. I would recommend (highly) a listen. There is at least one truth that will enlighten you.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Absolutely amazing book, a real treasure.

This book is a real Jewel for any person that has the strong call for having a new life.
I can say without any doubt that Eckhart Tolle has transformed my life from inside out. Thanks to 'The Power of Now' I received the empowered message 'you can stop suffering'. Thanks to this I was able to leave the dungeon of 42 years of abusive relationship. To overcome the panic attacks and finally to find an amazing space of inner peace.


With 'The New earth' book I keep deepening the freedom from my ego, pain body and thoughts.

Thank you Eckhart for being one of the most important persons in my life.

Love,

Sonia
