Stillness Speaks by Eckhart Tolle

Stillness Speaks distills Eckhart Tolle’s teachings into short entries arranged in ten thematic chapters. Topics include moving beyond identification with thought, attending to the present and reconsidering suffering.

The passages are suited to slow reading and repeated contemplation rather than a continuous argument. Tolle’s account of inner stillness expresses his spiritual understanding of awareness, not a guarantee that all emotional difficulties will disappear.
