Eckhart Tolle's writings on the power of living in the moment fast
became the most sought-after modern classic on spiritual
enlightenment.
Now, in this new life-transforming book, we are
shown how to become our true selves by embracing silence and
stillness.
When we are no longer limited by our thinking mind,
suffering and pain disappears and we are able to move towards a new
understanding of our relationships, of nature, and of the profound
wisdom that is to be found in stillness.
In this companion volume to her bestselling book "Acts of Faith, "
bestselling author and star of "Iyanla: Fix My Life" discusses the
"valleys" that cause stress and imbalance for women and explains
how women can cleanse their minds and promote a healthy foundation
for living in the modern world.""
"A Note from Iyanla Vanzant"
""Beloved friend,
When this little book was first published many years ago, it became
a beacon of light for many people who found themselves time and
time again in one valley or another. Valleys are nothing new for
any of us. Some of you may be in a valley right now, or, since you
never know what's around the corner, you may be on the brink of
tottering into yet another valley. Or maybe you've just survived a
valley that you swear you'll never revisit--but guess what? That's
precisely the valley you'll probably see again. And again.
Being in a valley can be a lonely and bewildering experience. This
book was written to help you feel less lonely by reminding you that
you really aren't ever alone since God is always by your side, but
more important, "you" are always by your own side. No matter how
dire the situation may seem, no matter how dark and bleak the
valley may be, you have all you need within you to survive the
valley--any valley. Even though you may not know how you got into
the valley in the first place, you do know, deep inside yourself,
how to get through and out and free. You just need a little faith
in yourself and a little guidance to find that faith within
yourself.
When you are at your wit's end, take this little book and let it
guide you toward the ever-present but often elusive light at the
end of the tunnel. "Faith in the Valley" is designed to help you
find the light when you need it most--when you're in that damn
tunnel. When you're most confused and in the dark and clueless as
to how you got there (again ) and when you're trying to figure out
not just how to get out, but stay out. For good.
"Faith in the Valley" has helped so many through so much that we
felt it only fitting to issue this lovely gift edition to
acknowledge the special place it holds in many hearts. Please share
it with a friend who has served as your beacon in the past, or
offer it to yourself as a reminder of the strength and wisdom you
possess and can offer to others.
Iyanla
This very important work offers penetrating dialogues between the
great spiritual leader and the renowned physicist that shed light
on the fundamental nature of existence. Krishnamurti and David Bohm
probe such questions as 'why has humanity made thought so important
in every aspect of life? How does one cleanse the mind of the
'accumulation of time' and break the 'pattern of ego -centered
activity'?The Ending of Time concludes by referring to the wrong
turn humanity has taken, but does not see this as something from
which there is no escape. There is an insistence that mankind can
change fundamentally; but this requires going from one's narrow and
particular interests toward the general, and ultimately moving
still deeper into that purity of compassion, love and intelligence
that originates beyond thought, time, or even emptiness.
