When Eckhart Tolle agreed to be interviewed on September 11, 2001, he could not foresee the historic nature of this date or the suffering that would follow. As the days events unfolded, in real time, he responded with a calm and clear voice, helping to make sense out of the fear and chaos that will forever define this date. "Even the Sun Will Die" documents this historic meeting with Eckhart Tolle and the comforting wisdom he revealed that day.

We live in a time, he says, when we define ourselves through our enemies; and science and technology are in the service of human madness. Yet even in the face of disaster, a miracle happens when we say "yes" to living in this moment and no other. This "great opening," he teaches, can serve as nothing less than the beginning of a revolution in human consciousness with the potential to transform our world and everyone in it. Also for the first time on audio, Eckhart Tolle comments on his own awakening, and what he sees as the next step in human evolution. From insights into the way out of suffering, to evidence that a new consciousness is already rising, "Even the Sun Will Die" confirms Eckhart Tolles place among the most important and accessible spiritual teachers of our time.

Book Description
From insights into the way out of suffering to evidence that a new consciousness is rising, "Even the Sun Will Die" reveals that even following the tragedy of September 11, 2001, a miracle happens when we say "yes" to living in this moment and no other. 2 CDs.

To those who say it is "hard to follow" I would respond by saying that the fault does not lie in the CD, but elsewhere. To those who say they are put off by the author's voice or speaking mannerisims, I would respond that they should re-read his original work and quit focusing on the shallow forms we humans take and concentrate on the words! Have we come to this - that only good looking/perfect/great sounding people can sell anything? And to those who say the author is only repeating what he said in his origianl book, I repsond, of course! His original book had it all. He has been breaking it down into smaller and smaller pieces at the request of the public, and he has told us this in his previous interviews etc. He has already said that everything we need is in Power of Now, but because we want it in smaller pieces, he is giving it to us - only to get complaints. And for the people who complain that he did not address the 9-11 issue - read the label and listen to the introduction. This issue was addressed in those locations as well as in the message of the text - pay attention!

The mixed reviews do not surprise me. They are an indication that this material is right for someone who has reached a certain point in their development where they are perhaps just at the verge of readiness to surrendering to what IS, rather than trying to control events.

I listened to the audio CDs in my car and experienced a sudden shift, a deep understanding, accompanied by lightness and a feeling of expansion, although I had already read the book "The Power of Now". Make no mistake: this is a highly evolved being speaking to you. I understand that it is difficult for a fast-paced culture (like the American) to listen to the silence and laughter and hear the messages in it. This is the point. As to the 9/11 events: how appropriately he addressed this drama. Yes, drama. As it is merely drama that unfolds, but this IS NOT us. We are eternal being caught up in material reality in this incredible drama. Tolle knows how to bring people back to who they REALLY are.

.....that within the first twenty minutes of this tape, an interview recorded on 9/11/2001, Mr. Tolle barely alluded to the events that had taken place that morning and were continuing to unfold as he was being interviewed. So much for "the power of Now." When I purchased the tape, I was keenly interested to hear what this "spiritual teacher" would have to say about the horrific events, yet he was totally unspontaneous, presenting what sounded like a prepared lecture. I was also surprised to hear this spiritual person refer to other people as "they." As if all this weren't off-putting enough, the ongoing gentle giggle that accompanied his words, was appalling.

After twenty minutes I turned the tape off. Perhaps he eventually got to "the Now" of what was happening, perhaps not...
