The Power of Now

Saw that everyone seemed to enjoyed it so I went and picked it up today, going to start it tommorow!

 

I dont think that Tolle is saying it is bad to think. I think he means its bad for you to be thinking without being aware of it. Thoughts come naturally so why be plague by meaningless ones.

I love a new earth, especially one part where it talks about "sin" being interpreted wrong in christianity and its true meaning being someone that has "missed the point". Missing the point to leading a happily fufilled life. i love it when you read things and something clicks in your head because you never thought about it like that before. Thats my favorite part about reading self help books.

I also had a profound experience reading the four agreements when i was in highschool. It really zoomed my perspective out when i had always been so ignorant of my own actions and how they affect me and the way i live my life.

 

Excellent teachings. Also, "Stillness Speaks" is a good tool for contemplative meditation.
