What is the point of it all?

I’ve begun making my way through Eckhart Tolle’s recommended reading list. This book is on there, and it was available at the local library, so I started here.

Lots of great stuff. A quick read, too. I believe it’s a transcribed live seminar. De Mello talks about “waking up” (described by Eckhart Tolle as “the separation of thinking and awareness”, enlightenment), and how this is what everyone needs to do and that life isn’t worth living unless you wake up. Lots of insight. It’s hard to say how helpful this information will be for someone who who hasn’t had at least a little bit of that “waking up” experience. But I guess that person may not be attracted to this book in the first place.

I did prefer THE WAY TO LOVE a bit more than this one though. More hard-hitting to me. It’s one that I will certainly reread.
