Funny you should ask. I'm almost done with:
A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose

I've read a lot of books in my life, and I can say
without hesitation that this is the most important
book I have ever read. It explains so well why I have
been such an ass in the past, the reasons for it and
what to do about it.

Read his Power of Now, Stillness Speaks, and The New Earth and
Practicing the Power of Now. I remember I liked the New Earth and
Stillness Speaks, but I don't remember enough to tell you what I liked
about them. I liked the New Earth the most I think.

I would recommend Eckhart Tolle's stuff...I liked the Power of Now - I
like the New Earth better (but it builds upon prior, so read Power of
Now first).
My most favorite work by Tolle is the DVD called "Flowering of Human
Conciousness" - presence is conveyed, even over video.

Namaste,

Since I have not as yet begun to read any of it, I asked the opinion
of those who have. Evidently in order to have formed an opinion, you
yourself must have read some of it. By your own assessment and
analogy you must therefor consider yourself at least a fly, implying
you must also once have been a maggot. Consider me to be a spider
instead, having already caught a few flies, most notably yourself, as
fine a specimen of shit eater as ever there was one.
(Need i add also that by your own words you must also be an idiot, or
do the obvious self referential insults and the mixed metaphor of
"magnetic shit" demonstrate it enough even to you?)
