 The magic of being. May 24, 2002
47 out of 48 found this review helpful
Eckhardt Tolle's "THE REALIZATION OF BEING" provides the listener with a genuine opportunity to experience the subject of this recorded seminar: being, and all the aliveness that goes with it. In the first CD, Tolle discusses what it's like to live in the moment and what drives us out of the moment. By the second CD, Tolle's speaking pace drops significantly, so that listeners can experience the energy of their being during silence. The tone of this audio CD is calm and meditative. In fact, a disclaimer on the back cover cautions not to listen to the program while driving or operating heavy machinery due to the meditative nature of the recording. In his generally quiet way, (with occasional bursts of faster and more energetic speaking) Tolle guides listeners to the richness of living from the state of being, not from thinking. We're all very good at thinking, he says, but being requires practice. Another great way to practice living in the moment is through the work of authors Ariel and Shya Kane - read their book "WORKING ON YOURSELF DOESN'T WORK" or listen to one of their audiotapes, such as "THE PRINCIPLES OF TRANSFORMATION." On the subject of living life as magically as it is intended to be, Tolle and the Kanes represent a rare and great guiding force.
These CDs have presence May 20, 2002
13 out of 14 found this review helpful
These CDs address the issue of how to EXPERIENCE the shift in consciousness that Eckhart describes as "being", as opposed to compulsive thinking (which is the baseline for most of us). As he explains on the tape, the words are not what is important, rather it is the experience of "being". People often describe an advancement in understanding that can occur in the presence of someone who is enlightened. This same benefit or "presence" can be felt when listening to these CDs. If one is not connecting with the experience, then the words alone have little meaning (and the pauses and laugh can be annoying) which may explain the discrepancy in the reviews so far. If you have read and connected with the book, "The Power of Now", I cannot recommend these CDs highly enough. If you haven't read the book, you're missing one of the greatest books of this century.
 I was disappointed May 14, 2002

I was hoping for more in depth meditations. Instead I got a guy making a strange sound (laughing) often because he is in front of an audience.Only in the last 5-15 minutes does he try to connect everything he's been saying. That's not enough time to grasp it.
 He's got much better May 9, 2002

I've listened to other Tolle audiobooks and this one is very weak. Don't buy this, it's a waste of your money. The audiobook is simply a recording (and a very poor one at that) of a partial section of a live workshop. The content does not flow like his other professionally produced a-books. In addition, the microphone is too close and you hear every breath and guteral sound (very annoying).I really loved Power of Now, but this is junk. Shame on Tolle for hustling his faithful customer base with this garbage.
A journey to a deeper understanding of the principles February 1, 2002
10 out of 13 found this review helpful
This CD provides an opportunity to journey deeper into a deeper understanding of the principles as put forth in The Power of Now. I would recommend taking time to put all else away and just be with the CD as Tolle teaches. Before I knew it, great insights and a definite sense of knowing came forth as I listened. He guides you through learning to listen with the entire body- the energy field- and that is a practice that truly brings on into the present. I thoroughly recommend this CD.
