This book is always with me and i refer to it as soon as i forget what is life about. I give them often away and keep buying new one quiet often.I wish it was printed in better cover and maybe some colours .

This is one of those books to read, and reread periodically. Wonderful insights to our psyche and our potential to do good on this planet.

I read this book a few years ago after being blown away by Eckhart's book, The Power of Now. At the time I was growing spiritually and some of the concepts went sailing past. Early this year a friend was excitedly reading this book and was awakened to new levels of awareness and purpose. This time I am reading it slow and deep and underlining as I go. This is timeless wisdom from an enlightened teacher. People will be reading it and learning from A New Earth many years from now.

I needn't say too much about this book. The critics have said it all! It is amazing!! You'll never regret it!

I would recommend that everyone in all walks of life and every spiritual path read this book of Eckhart Tolle. There was never a time in the history of the world that his suggestions on how to make it a better place could be more appropriate! Look at what we are doing to our world, both physically (oil sands, greed and money) and spiritually (regardless of philosophy or religion) and the need to find the way out of it must be addressed. Eckhart Tolle explains how each one of us can do our part to bring about change in a completely non-judgemental way. My copy has notations on nearly every page! and I will be referring back to it many times!

Tolle makes it easy for the layman to understand his philosophies. His books have to be slowly digested for best results, but the wait is well worthwhile.

I am a big skeptic when it comes to reading books recommended by celebrities like Oprah. But this book is too awesome. It provides a very good insight and helps you see the true cause of the problems. This book teaches you to attack the archer and not the arrows. Not something to be read quickly though, it has to be read very slowly to make sure each lesson taught gets registered properly.

Maybe it was my frame of mind at the time, but I just couldn't get into the book. Will try again at a later date...

I liked the book.
Whatever I didn't like was that there were parts I didn't agree with. A good read

Fantastic Book. My 2nd read by Eckhart Tolle. First book I read was The Power Of NOw. Both totally amazing!
