Awakening to Your Life's Purpose

A New Earth

All that is required to become free of the ego is to be aware of it, since awareness and ego are incompatible. Awareness is the power that is concealed within the present moment. 

Words, no matter whether they are vocalized and made into sounds or remain unspoken as thoughts, can cast an almost hypnotic spell upon you. You easily lose yourself in them, become hypnotized into implicitly believing that when you have attached a word to something, you know what it is. The fact is: You don't know what it is. 

 You do not become good by trying to be good, but by finding the goodness that is already within you, and allowing that goodness to emerge. But it can only emerge if something fundamental changes in your state of consciousness.

Spannende Perspektiven, umständlich geschrieben. Teilweise erleuchyend, teilweise eher spekulativ.

This book opened my eyes to new concepts of Being. It's sometimes hard to remember them while NOT reading the book, but helpful nonetheless.

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. 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, 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.--From publisher description.

This should be read either before or after Ryan Holiday’s “ego is the enemy “

I could not finish this book. I grew increasingly resentful having to read it. I got it because I thought it would be similar to The Secret but it was not.

There were some good insights but really struggled to get through it. It felt like reading a textbook.

I already knew going into this book, the writing was going to be slightly repetitive and I didn't mind this at all. But I felt like his book 'The Power of Now' held more power, more transformation that this book did. I like his teachings but I prefer 'The Power of Now' over this book.
