Eckhart Tolle is widely recognized as one of the most inspiring and visionary spiritual teachers in the world today. His bestselling books The Power of Now and A New Earth aim to help readers find freedom by living their lives in the present moment, instead of dwelling on the past or fretting about the future. The New York Times has described him as "the most popular spiritual author in the United States", and in 2011, Watkins Review named him "the most spiritually influential person in the world".

Eckhart's teachings focus on the significance and power of Presence, a more awakened state of consciousness which can help us transcend our egos and reduce negative thinking. Eckhart sees this inner awakening as the essential next step in human evolution.
