Freedom from the World

A profound journey - true to the title!

I loved this book and could not wait for my morning journey to work (an hour at least) to listen and contemplate Eckhart Tolle's simple wisdom on how to free ourselves from all we create both seen and unseen, and surrender to the present moment.
This book is for the true spiritual seeker, and vital for the busy western mind who needs to operate in this world, but also wants to know how to surrender into the silence within - to refresh ourselves at a deep and subtle level - to experience deep peace.
Eckardt Tolle finds many insightful ways to explain this concept of freedom from the world, as the western mind has been conditioned for busy-ness, anxiety, fear and therefore needs to be reminded of the same simple truth in many different ways.
This has been a profound spiritual journey with Eckardt Tolle. So grateful I chose it!

I enjoy Tolle, but this is often mind-numbing.

Mindfulness, and the focus of true living are often wonderfully illustrated by Tolle, but not in this collection. Thoughts often wander aimlessly, concepts remain unresolved, and the recording itself is substandard. A waste of time and money, and below the standards of typical Tolle.

Highly recommended

I'm now finishing it for the 2nd time, highly inspiring deep and relaxing and never gets old.

Beautiful and Amazing!

Listening to Eckhart speak and hold attention presence is beautiful and amazing! The awakening happens and we feel complete aliveness when we are here AS this moment. Not a thought IN consciousness, here AS consciousness! That subtle shift from an object in the now to the formless space that is now! Thank you Eckhart! Thank you for the Aliveness!@Amenkhumrapresence

Divine Emanations

I love listening to his talks. Always so inspiring, such depth in his voice, no matter the words. I get IT so easily just BEing in presence while he talks.

Thinking differently out loud

I personally did not find this tangential, as another reviewer wrote, in fact I found it absolutely gorgeous. Just put in a pair of headphones while you’re walking or up in the morning and it’s like a little mini re-wire.
I do get it regarding another recorded retreat
I tried to listen to, which was hard for me to the point where I had to delete it (twice) because there was just too much giggling about negative examples of getting caught in your thoughts, almost constantly— I tried to wait for the lessons but I felt like you would have to be there for some of these recordings to make sense, or resonate really. That one was stressful for me to listen to, with all of the examples of how not to think, unfortunately. But that’s just my learning style, I still feel a student to him.
This one though, doesn't do that, not for me anyway, and I feel sensitive to that.
THIS particular retreat recording is helping a lot, even as much as his books, and like I said, is just beautiful. His lectures can be silly, which I like sometimes, but this one is excellent for audio for me.

Great Audible! Wonderful teaching!

I love this audible and I cannot stop myself to listen over and over again...
Gratitude Eckhart Tolle to share your gift with us.

best book ever ! outside of the power of now<br />

if you listen. and don't understand. listen again. and again. until you do.

this book is energized with the saturation of presence. it's fantastic if you listen with not just he mind.

peace
