书籍介绍
New York Times bestselling author Eckhart Tolle ― A key to happiness is living in the now Practice The Power of Now: If you, like many others, have benefited from the transformative experience of reading The Power of Now, you will want to own and read Practicing the Power of Now. Eckhart Tolle: Eckhart Tolle, a spiritual teacher and author who was born in Germany and educated at the Universities of London and Cambridge, is rapidly emerging as one of the world’s most inspiring spiritual teachers. His views go beyond any particular religion, doctrine, or guru. In The Power of Now and his subsequent book Practicing the Power of Now, Eckhart shares the enlightenment he himself experienced after a profound inner transformation radically changed the course of his life. Your path to enlightenment: Practicing the Power of Now extracts the essence from Eckhart’s teachings in his New York Times bestseller, The Power of Now (translated into 33 languages). Practicing the Power of Now shows us how to free ourselves from “enslavement to the mind.” The aim is to be able to enter into and sustain an awakened state of consciousness throughout everyday life. Through meditations and simple techniques, Eckhart shows us how to quiet our thoughts, see the world in the present moment, and find a path to “a life of grace, ease, and lightness.” The next step in human evolution: Eckhart’s profound yet simple teachings have already helped countless people throughout the world find inner peace and greater fulfillment in their lives. At the core of the teachings lies the transformation of consciousness, a spiritual awakening that he sees as the next step in human evolution. An essential aspect of this awakening involves transcending our ego-based state of consciousness. This is a prerequisite not only for personal happiness but also for the ending of violence on our planet. Readers of other transformational self-help books such as The Four Agreements, The Miracle Morning, Braving the Wilderness, and The Book of Joy will want to read Practicing the Power of Now.

精彩摘录
  • "初步的自由解脱,就是了解到你不是那个思考者。在你开始观察那个思考者的那一刻,就启动了意识的更高层次。然后你就会了解:有一个智性的广大领域是超越思想的,思想只是其中极小的一个面向。你同时也了解到,所有真正重要的事物,如美丽、真爱、创造力、喜悦、内在平安,都是超越心智而生的。这时,你就开始觉醒了。"
  • "问题终究只有一个:被时间局限的心智本身。 时间当中不会有救赎,你无法在未来获得解脱。临在才是解脱的关键。所以,你只能在当下获得自由。 你所谓的生命,正确地说,应该叫做“生命情境”。它是心理时间——过去和未来。有些过去的事情没有按照你期望的方式呈现,你还在抗拒这些过去发生的事,然后你现在又在抗拒当下的本然(what is)。让你继续前进的动力是希望,但是希望也让你把焦点放在未来,而持续聚焦未来会让你不断地否认当下,也因此让你的不幸一直延续下去。"
  • "当你放下抗拒,臣服于当下的本然而全然临在时,一直以来被心智遮蔽的存在之门,就会再度开启。突然之间,你的内在会升起极大的宁静——一种深不可测的平和感。在那平和之中,有着极大的喜悦,在那喜悦之中,有着爱。而在最深处的核心,是神圣的、不可测量的、无以名之的“道”。"
  • "当你的意识被导向外在时, 思维和这个物质世界就成了主导; 当你的意识导向内在时, 它就会感知到自己的源头而回到了未显化状态, 那里是它的家。"
  • "思维认同创造了一连串的概念、标签、意象、词语、判断和定义,阻碍了你所有真正的关系。这些东西挡在你和你自己之间、你和其他人之间、你和自然之间、你和上帝之间。"
  • "倾听你脑袋中的声音并作为一个观察者的临在。 当你在倾听那种声音时,不要去做任何评判。 倾听它,观察它。 随着你倾听思维,你会感觉到在这种思维之下或之后的一种有意识的临在,那就是你更深的自我。 当一种思维止息时,你会在自己的心智流(mental stream)中体验到一种思维的中断——思维空白。 多加练习之后,你的这种平和与宁静的感觉会加深。"
  • "除了“观察思考者”之外,你还可以通过将你的注意力集中在当下这一刻,从而在思维中创造那种空白,即全神贯注于当下的时刻。 在这种空白中,你高度警惕,注意力高度集中,但是你没有在思考。这就是冥想的本质。"
  • "小我由思维活动组成,只有不断地进行思考它才能存活。 我所指的是虚假的自我,它是我们无意识地认同于思维而产生的。 对于小我来说,当下时刻几乎不存在,只有过去和未来才是重要的——完全颠倒是非。"

睡前读物。09年在奥兰多买的,留到现在才读完。
海盗湾下的Audiobook,上下班路上迷迷糊糊睡觉听完的。感觉听的时候很放松。
想读英文原版。
说好的练习呢?怎么越来越嚼舌了 说来说去你还是那些 毫无新意
传说中可以反复阅读的spiritual reading. 看到最后有点像一个acceptance的变换过程。时刻保持consciousnes以对抗automatic resistance. Living in the present
