Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle presents readers with an honest look at the current state of humanity and implores us to see that this state, based on erroneous identification with the egoic mind, is one of dangerous insanity. Yet humanity now has an opportunity to create a saner, more loving world. Gently, in very practical terms, Tolle leads us into a new consciousness where we will come to experience who we truly are and learn to live freely. Book jacket.
