Eckhart Tolle is said to have attained enlightenment at the age of 29 after suffering long periods of depression, dissolving his old identity and radically changing the course of his life. Tolle's non-fiction bestseller, The Power of Now, emphasizes the importance of being aware of the present moment as a way of not being lost in thought.  

ECKHART TOLLE: the Power of Now - Awakening in the now

In Tolle's view, the present is the gateway to a heightened sense of peace and aliveness. "Being in the now" also brings about an awareness that is beyond the mind. This awareness helps in transcending "the pain-body" that is created by the identification of the mind and ego with the body. The aim of Tolle's teachings is the transformation of individual and collective human consciousness-a global spiritual awakening.

Core teachings that arise from his works are:
1. You are not your thoughts. 

2. Only the present moment exists. 

3. Accept the present moment. It is resistance to the present moment that creates most of the difficulties in your life. 

4. Observe the pain-body. 

5. Everything that exists has Being, has God essence, has some degree of consciousness.
