The book draws from a variety of "spiritual traditions",[5] and has been described by one reviewer as "Buddhism mixed with mysticism and a few references to Jesus Christ, a sort of New Age re-working of Zen."[6] It uses these traditions to describe a "belief system based on living in the present moment".[7] Its core message is that people's emotional problems are rooted in their identification with their minds.[8] The author writes that an individual should be aware of their "present moment" instead of losing themselves in worry and anxiety about the past or future.[2]
According to the book, only the present moment is important,[5] and both an individual's past and future is created by their thoughts.[6] The author maintains that people's insistence that they have control of their life is an illusion "that only brings pain".[5] The book also describes methods of relaxation and meditation to aid readers in anchoring themselves in the present.[5] These suggestions include slowing down life by avoiding multi-tasking, spending time in nature, and letting go of worries about the future.[9] Some of the concepts contained in The Power of Now, such as the human ego and its negative effects on happiness, are further elaborated in the author's later books, in particular A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose (2005).[
If everyone in this world could find this book or this breakdown of the book. THE WORLD would be a better place

It would be very quiet and peaceful. 😊
Exactly
This was the first book that woke me up. ☮️❤️

BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHH!!!!
Thank you
❤️❤️
Thanks man
After 5 years, i have just revisited this one again…to avoid feeding the Ego and get in the “Now” - Much gratitude for the Joseph Rodriguez channel 🙏🏾
I am currently studying for my tests and accidentally clicked onto this video. Grateful for the universe who brings me to this video and I am excited to apply this concept to my life.
This has really convinced me to read the book now, I have a bad habit of always thinking about the future, and it's robbed me of my happiness of today.
Ellulaith whoa.
Have you read it? How do you feel about it today?
It’s really a powerful book! His other book “A new Earth” is just as powerful!🌅
It's ironic that a lot of people are putting off reading the Power Of Now until later!
I am grateful to this person so much. Thank you for creating this video. It is worth watching. 😊
I keep thinking of a the movie 'revolver' with Jason Statham. This is what it' all about. I like one of their quotes "if you change the rules on what controls you, you will change the rules, on what you can control".
Changed my life literally saved me. I was about to give up. Salute !
i am so happy that you exist! people that stumble upon your videos are the most privileged and blessed ones. i really hope people take the most out of these videos. cus its enough to change ones life forever.
This is in my top 5 favorite books of all time
I'm also 36, and feel better now than in any other time on my life. It is because of self reflection and surrender.
38, two years late, but right on time. I wanted to just say congrats @Neutral420 for your happiness at that moment in time. Since 2 years has passed, perhaps you can have another soon! =)
Im turning 34 on May 11th and im learning to live in the moment i love it 🥰
This is so on point, so poetically retold. I’m cleaning my clients home and I am so in the now, making sure every nook and cranny is as clean as it can be, now. Thank you, about to subscribe to feed my soul what it desires while I’m present in my everyday.
I got the book, but I'm here. Thank you Joseph for your time and support information. Bless you 😊
This was the first self improvement book I’ve read 15 years ago, it changed my life forever. After that I bought more copies and gave them to my friends. Priceless gem. Thank you Joseph for all your work, I am grateful.
The last point about surrendering is so relevant to last year up until this year! Thank you for this!
Right
This is definitely my favorite book ever! Very powerful indeed 💕
A book is great when a different type of people with different backgrounds and different upbringings found something in it that is useful to them. For me, I am studying spiritual books like Maharshi book "Who Am I?". What Eckhart Tolle Power of Now is, he goes behind the consciousness, go back to the source, and he speaks to you from the source. When speak from there, if you can feel it, you will see that your mind or ego is just a construct. Slowly this construct will be chipped away.
One good reference is the screen and the movie. When the projector is turned on, you see the moving pictures. Now the projector is turned off and you see only the screen. The Power of Now is speaking to you from behind the screen.
Joseph I greatly appreciate your supporting videos again. It's very positive and powerful. Sometimes I feel like you are reading chapters of my life 🤔👍🤝
Joseph, this video literally changed my life. I finally followed the guidance and everything that had been plaguing me finally release. Omg I can’t even say how much I appreciate your vids- especially this one. I had already ready the book power of now and it didn’t get me here- your vid did
One of the most powerful books Ive ever read. Time for a fresh copy as Ive worn the last one out🙏🏾
Wet
I deeply appreciate you man!
You're making a massive impact and I hope you receive blessings and guidance for it! ✨👑💯
thank you so much for making this video, it is helpful to make me more clear. I have read a number of times, when i read it, i feel peace and follow the words in the book, i become calm and no anger, no resentment, because i'm aware of all the resentments and anger are created by the thoughts from my ego. But once i put down the book if i don't read it for a long time or if i forget, my pain body sometimes is still activated.
Ok. 46 years and 9 months old and now I'm enlightened? Wtf? Great stuff my friend. God bless
Aah, it is never too late mate :)
Never too late
good for you, age is just a number
"it's never too late to do the right thing."
I know it is 2 years later now, but hey, I am 57 and okay I have not been totally asleep forever but still I am waking up more and more. So yeah, what's age my dear?
8:12🧿 consciousness - the way out of pain

This is my second time coming back to your video in less than 3 months.
It really does refresh.
And it’s affects are different this time.
I understood the message the first time, but this time the message stood out even more.
My ego was trying to take me over again, which was I had to return.
And I remembered what this means again.
Just like you said in the beginning of the video.
Your ego sees you winning and it wants to take you out with other tactics.
We need a letting go, David Hawkins book study.
Thanks boss.
You’re such a great speaker. It’s so easy to connect with you. Thanks for your wisdom ❤
The 2 second pause at 27:25 is the most profound transition possible
to those attempting to apply what you were teaching at that moment.
=| =} Thank you for being so sincere and humble,
I have benefitted so much from your service brother. =)
Jesus 😂
I love your channel. You make these books come alive and I learn so much. I’ve enjoyed so much from your work ever since lockdown. Thank you for your work.
40 pages in and Loving it!!!
When I first listened to this last year I really didn't capture the full magnitude and power of this book. Having sat there, in the now, and listened to it without anything playing on my mind, I've truly come to the realisation of how life changing this book could be. Thanks for sharing, I've added this to my book wish list on Amazon 👍🏻
That makes me happy, thank you Brad
Excellent Insights & Perspectives! Bravo 👏
One of my favorite books!! Thanks for the summary. I’ve read it several times and yes... it’s so deep. Every time I re read it, I go deeper. Thanks!
Thank you so much, this has come into my life at exactly the right time I have been suffering a personal traumatic event for four years and remained ‘stuck’ in suffering and deep sadness. Thank you for shining a light of the present moment and offering me a new and better way of being. I feel lighter, more at peace and happier inside for sharing this moment with you. Sending love and gratitude 💛🙏🌴🌞⭐️🌈🐝🌸🦔

I have this calm motivation and focus when I listen to your videos 💪
Man your the best of the best the way you summarize this books it's fantastic. I respect you my brother you have influenced so many people by your videos and also me...
Yes to answer your question I do find this video very useful. I have read the book then I go through your study notes and then I listen to the book on audio. To once again go back and re- read the book for the second time 🤗 Thank You...
So so good - I’ve read the book and listened to it a bunch of times but I find it so boring. Your explanation of it is just superb and helps me now resonate with the book!
this channel is gold
Thank you, that is very kind of you.
7:26 into this- amazing realizations, awesome. Thank you
you are totally right! I have read this multiple times. It has been a while but I have also read A New Earth multiple times also. I will continue to read both or now just listen to this.
Thank you for your great note. Really appreciate how much effort you put in to study and prepare the material so an audience like me can absorb well. And thank you for your generosity in sharing the mind map materials. Thank you from S. Korea.
I have been listening to you often over the last few years and listen to certain videos more than 2 or 3 times as well. I just want to say thank you! Thank you for taking the time to break down and teach from the books and from your own experiences.
This book especially has changed my life.
Thank you!!
Thank you for imparting all this knowledge and wisdom! There appears to be threads of truth running through all of these books. Listening to different perspectives of thoughts, identity and behaviour really help define purpose.
So profound as you mentioned. Thank you!
Excelent work, Thank you for sharing,.
Amazing work! Thank you so much Joseph!
I'm listening to this audio the third time, so empowering and deep,
God bless you dear
I’m enjoying your channel short but very helpful and applicable to living life!
Sir Joseph good this book with your explanation I'm 50yrs old now it's clear to me only the N0W to can do what ever we want to our life..... (Monaco / FRANCE👍
Thank you Joseph...this pandemic has compelled us all to be ‘present’ and in the now. Right ‘now’ offers us great opportunities for growth. Your work is invaluable. With much appreciation from Ireland. ✌️
Great book and an excellent summary. Thank you
Thankyou Joseph. God bless you ❤️
This is such a great freaking video man. God bless you, haven’t read the book but the insights you gave helped me make connections that I couldn’t make before. Thank you
I find it impossible to grasp any of Tolle's stuff but you help a little. Maybe I'll pick up the book and try again.
Thanks for this amazing summary you’re awesome 💖💖💖
Thank you Joseph Rodriguez 😍
I absolutely love this book and review,I can’t get enough! I will rewatch this so much.😊🏆☀️💞
Glad you like it :)
This was awesome, thanks Joseph.
one of the best book narrator on youtube
Thank you, Joseph! happy peaceful prosperous New Year to you.
You're welcome, same to you!
Have just listened to the audio book read by Erkart Tolle ….Much easier to listen to his beautiful voice than actually reading this wonderful book …
All of your videos are very professional🙏🏿 thank you
Thank you 😀
One of the powerful books ever🔥🔥👏👏🌐👌👌
I'm still re-reading it again..
Can‘t thank you enough for your videos 🙏
Hopefully you will share study notes on Eckhart Tollle’s book, “A New Earth.”
Thank you for the discussion! I watched Eckhart with Oprah for the world wide discussion of A New Earth. I wanted to delve into this book too. I learned how to be in the present from Eckhart. I was never able to do it before. I have been dealing with a challenging situation for 2 years. This really helps!
well done, great analysis...this book has changed my life for the better...and you should go back and read it every year, every month...every week...
This is such a great book I have been listening to the audiobook on youtube for free
Same
I've been searching for something like this. Thank you very much! :)
I purchased this book last month. I haven’t read it yet after this. I’m ready.
Thank you so much for this video. I really appreciated
This was an incredible presentation as insightful as Eckharts work
Very good insights and explanations. Many thanks!
Your summary is awsome quite explicit, tried some but did not get it as now. I am extremely anxious to read the book now. Thks for ur eyes that read deeper meaning that resonates with me.
I appreciate you Joseph. Thank you.
Thank you ☺️ it helps me a lot to divert my mind on keep thinking the past
Good one!! from india 🇮🇳.

Thank you
You’re doing a great work
Best teacher
Your knowledge is TRULY a blessing. Thank you so much.
You're welcome & thank you for your kind works.
Would love for you to do Untethered Soul! I enjoy your videos.
Joseph i found your channel suddenly and i value your tired on it
Thankyou Joseph. really explained well.
Thanks- Tolle is really abstract
Wow. A time before Joseph could pronounce Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi?
Joseph it is amazing how great you’ve become at these videos
Waiting to live, or postponing happiness by overlooking the beauty of the present moment for some future hope or dream, is the trap most fall into, 'one day' syndrome, the sad thing is 'one day ' never comes.
I am so impressed. This is the second time, I've ran across your interpretation and/or experience with the spiritual works of individuals I identify with, your understandings and delivery enhances my connection with them even more so, Thank you!!! -God Bless You.
Happy New Year Joseph! Thank you for your efforts contributing to betterment of humanity!!
You're welcome, happy new year to you as well, all the best in 2018
Joseph, recently came across your videos. The videos are a fantastic refresher and is much appreciated! Picking up this book again after few years due to this video. Are you able to note the page number of the quotes to follow along? Thank you.
Thank you, your perspective makes this really easy to understand. I am a deeply thinking person. I totally understand The NOW! It's amazing how much of The NOW, ppl are missing. This reminds me of Hooponopono, whenever there is a problem in your life, you are always there. That is so profound!
You got it , congratulation
On my second copy!! Great book, Great summary!!!
Love this review, this book is the most reread book for me. Thank you!
you're welcome :)
Get a life you troll
so powerful, thanks
you're welcome, glad you are enjoying :)
