After reading this book, only one clean idea emergies: The idea of the power of now is great. Living in the now and not worrying so much about the past and future is very uplifting and has helped me. When you live in the now, your life is more joyful.
However, I frequently found that Tolle talks over my head, using language such as "pain body" and "unmanifested". He does explain these words, but the explainations can be hard to follow at times.
Furthermore, the question and answer format Tolle uses is distracting. Sometimes the questions he poses are good and follow what he has been saying, but others the questions seem to come from inside his head and the answers make even less sense then the questions.

Practicing the Power of Now is a handy companion to Eckhart's wildly popular The Power of Now. Essentially, Practicing the Power of Now contains the same information as in the first book.

It doesn't feel right giving four out of five stars to a masterpiece, which is what Stilness Speaks is. But that's because I do think his first book is better, and is the one people should (first) read. Stilness Speaks is a condensed version of The Power of Now, and people may not find it compelling enough, and consequently, may discard the ideas. Also, there are some key concepts that I remember from The Power of Now that are missing here. I know that Tolle warns that concepts should not be taken literally, but still, I doubt that if I had read this book first it would have made such a positive impact on me as did The Power of Now. But, because Tolle's ideas are so important, both books should probably be read (by everyone).
