Jamie Shavdia (www.jamieshavdia.co.uk) and Martin Goodson (www.thezengateway.com) discuss the hugely popular book ‘The Power of Now’ by Eckhart Tolle.
In this podcast they discuss where this book sits in the development of contemporary spirituality and psychotherapeutic treatments by introducing the present moment as a psychological medicine for many of our modern complaints.
Eckhart Tolle had what he described as an ‘enlightenment experience’ spontaneously following bouts of deep depression and suicidal ideation. Jamie and Martin discuss the fact that there are some people who, without any prior spiritual training, do have such genuine revelations and transformations of consciousness. In this wide ranging discussion Jamie and Martin investigate Tolle’s concepts of ‘Now’ and ‘Time’ as well as ‘the pain body’ and how anyone can enter into this transformative state of ‘Now’.
