![]() ![]() So in conclusion, I bought this based on the other rave reviews. There is an annoying cymbal that is meant to break the chapters but just sounds a bit silly to me. ![]() The performance is ok - Tolle has a calm, steady tone although they have put a bit of an echo on the sound, so it sounds like he's trying to hypnotise you. I really hoped this would elaborate on that area, but to be honest it didn't really move on after the first few chapters. Now, the one useful point here is the idea of living in the present and not dwelling too much on the future or the past. ![]() He answers with generalisations (the best one was where a voice says something like "Are any of your claims proven?" and Tolle replies with "Do it, and you yourself will be the evidence)", and when he started banging on about "energy fields", "life energy", "energy polarity", and how women feel pain because of the rape and subjugation of previous generations, I was just laughing at the stupidity. Sadly, it turned out to be pseudo-religious with an author that claims lots of answers but can substantiate none of it. Perhaps I was under a misapprehension when I bought this book - I was expecting something about meditation and the philosophy of living in the present. ![]()
