Do you know how to appreciate the value of the present moment or are you constantly worried about what was or will be? For many spiritual guides, living in the present is the most appropriate way to enjoy the miracle of life, and to be connected and grateful with what you are and what surrounds you.
This is also pointed out by Eckhart Tolle, a German writer and author of “The Power of Now”, a guide to spiritual enlightenment that has become one of the most widespread self-help manuals in the world.
In this note you will find some of the most famous phrases in this book that will help you become aware that life is happening now, and every moment is worth it to you. Dare to live it with humility, sincerity, dedication and gratitude! Because it is finite, and you deserve to enjoy every moment.

10. “Imagine if there was no human life on the planet and it was only inhabited by plants and animals. Would there be past and future? Could we still talk about time in a meaningful way? Questions like: what time is it? or what day is today?, if someone asked them, they would not make any sense.”
11. “Complaining is always not accepting what is, and invariably carries a burden of unconsciousness and negativity.

It is here that you discover that you are complete and perfect.
Although the journey is challenging, Eckhart Tolle offers simple language in a question-and-answer format. The words themselves are signposts that will guide you on your journey. There are new discoveries to be made along the way: You are not your mind, you can find your way out of psychological pain, true human power is found by surrendering to the now. When you become fully present and accept what is, you will open yourself to the transformative experience of The Power Of Now.
