The Art of Presence

By: Eckhart Tolle

Narrated by: Eckhart Tolle

Take a Break from Your "Life Situation"—and Come Back Home to Life

When Eckhart Tolle wrote The Power of Now, he turned our attention to something that’s always been right under our noses: life in this very moment. Yet why do so many of us continue to struggle to find presence? Awareness, he teaches, is the answer—a quality of relaxed alertness that you can progressively sharpen and sustain. In so doing, you overcome the judgments and limitations of the mind-made sense of self with its endless stream of thoughts about past and future—and discover an expanse of peace and renewed purpose in each and every moment—what Eckhart calls "presence."

On The Art of Presence, join Eckhart on retreat as he guides you through more than seven hours of transformational insights intended to help awareness naturally arise in you. With his one-of-a-kind "pointing instructions," you will explore:

• Transcending your "life situation" to realign with the one life living us all

• Breaking free from the illusion of separation from the outside world

• How to realize the wisdom of spiritual surrender

• Accessing the higher intelligence that empowers right actio

"There is a dimension in every human that remains untouched by anything that happens on the surface level of life," explains Eckhart. "This is who you are in your essence." The Art of Presence is your invitation to awaken and embody a deeper expression of who you are.

awesome. This should be taught in schools.

Such valuable teachings about just being a human and relationships. I wish I knew this years ago . Very important , should be taught in school and in all prisons.

Great listen

Refreshing to hear very very good concept and very very good examples given for your guidance

more silence

I never thought I would be saying this but there was a lot of music on this book and it would have fostered more presence without it

Audio not an issue for me...

Yes, the audio sounds like it was recorded in a room full of people. But that's what you're agreeing to listen to, by way of the description of this offering. I could hear him speaking just fine, and the background noise is minimal, when heard at all.

While I found 'The Power of Now" to be influential and informative, the benefit of this offering is to hear the concepts discussed in a more conversational (and humorous) way. I thought of it as a "refresher course" of sorts.

Wonderful listen!

Eckardt Tolle’s way of guiding you to presence, to the feeling of being, is so simple and easy. This has profoundly effected my meditation, business decisions, how I work with my staff, approach business ‘problems’, my health, my relationships with parents, siblings, wife and kids and friendships too.

A gorgeous way to become less mind driven and more conscious, and melt away even a little of the ‘me’ vs ‘not-me’ kind of perspective that isolates and creates suffering.

Highly recommend!
