The Power of Now


Book Description

Celebrating 25 Years as a New York Times Bestseller — Over 16 Million Copies Sold It’s no wonder that The Power of Now has sold over 16 million copies worldwide and has been translated into over 30 foreign languages. Much more than simple principles and platitudes, the book takes readers on an inspiring spiritual journey to find their true and deepest self and reach the ultimate in personal growth and spirituality: the discovery of truth and light. In the first chapter, Tolle introduces readers to enlightenment and its natural enemy, the mind. He awakens readers to their role as a creator of pain and shows them how to have a pain-free identity by living fully in the present. The journey is thrilling, and along the way, the author shows how to connect to the indestructible essence of our Being, “the eternal, ever-present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are subject to birth and death.” Featuring a new preface by the author, this paperback shows that only after regaining awareness of Being, liberated from Mind and intensely in the Now, is there Enlightenment.




From This Moment


Book Description

It was like seeing a ghost. When my late husband's twin brother moves back to our small town, I want to avoid him. Everything about Wes reminds me of the man I lost and the life we'd planned together, and after eighteen long months struggling just to get out of bed, I'm finally doing okay. I have a new job, an amazing support group, and a beautiful five-year-old daughter to parent. I don't want to go backward. But I'm drawn to him, too. He understands my grief and anger and guilt like no one else-and I understand his. Before long, that understanding becomes desire, and that desire becomes uncontrollable. He says he doesn't care what people think, and love can never be wrong. But life has taught me its cruelest lesson--love doesn't always win. If only my heart would believe it.




Cycles and Sunglasses


Book Description

If you've ever wondered what life here on Earth is really about... If you feel the way you are handling life does not work any more... you have already completed the first step of the learning cycle presented in this book. Your meeting this book could be synchronous. This text is meant for mainly two groups of readers. The first group, complacently relaxing on a religious beach, possibly knows they have eternal life. The second group is playing in the esoteric waves or in mysticism. They may be out quite far where the waves are bigger. The book invites both groups to join hands on the spiritual shoreline with your feet firmly balanced on the land and in the sea. This writing does not try to teach you anything. It presents 7 paradigms, viewed as sets of coloured sunglasses. These are as old as humanity. The book reminds you to remember to go on your own journey - to learn your own paradigms. Ones that work for you as you seek your own personal truths, balanced on firm sand underneath your feet. Cycles and Sunglasses raise more questions than answers. It opens up possibilities you may not think about every day. Sometimes with tongue in cheek. The 7 paradigms start off with an assumption that we are spiritual beings. The book presents you with a learning paradigm. It plays around with some of our purposes for being here on Earth, both individually and universally, as One. It reflects on being in the now and on being puppets - puppets of a higher purpose. For more data on your own reflective observation, read the book.

The Moment


Book Description

Modern philosophical thought has a manifold tradition of emphasising ‘the moment’. ‘The moment’ demands questioning all-too-common notions of time, of past, present and future, uniqueness and repetition, rupture and continuity. This collection addresses the key questions posed by ‘the moment’, considering writers such as Nietzsche, Husserl, Benjamin and Badiou, and elucidates the connections between social theory, philosophy, literary theory and history that are opened up by this notion.




A Theory of Nothing


Book Description

From the day we are born, life is teaching us lessons. Whether it is how we navigate our physical environment or our socio-cultural surround, we are constantly trying to make sense of our reality by listening to these life lessons. Yet while many of life’s lessons reinforce our reality, every so often life’s lessons present us with a curious idea—that everything out there, our reality, may not be as “real” as it seems. A Theory of Nothing: How Is the Finite Reality Created from the Infinite? chronicles one man’s lifelong journey to develop life’s lessons into a concept of reality that challenges our preconceived notions of objectivity. Although we tend to think of the world around us and our reality as being a shared, objective world in which we live, author D. N. Warren-Smith furthers the philosophical argument that it is really our subjective perceptions that shape and even make the world around us. With compelling logical arguments and descriptions of personal experience, he shows that our most basic assumptions about the reality of our existence in fact keep the true nature of reality hidden from us. Once we realise that there is no way to conclusively prove that we actually exist in an objective reality, we must weigh up the implications of a non-objective, subjective reality and what it means for our lives. We have a choice for our belief in what exists. How will you choose?
