Eckhart Tolle was born in Germany and educated at the Universities of London and Cambridge. At 29, he says a profound inner transformation radically changed the course of his life. He spent the next few years devoted to understanding, integrating and deepening that transformation, which he says marked the beginning of an intense inward journey. While in London, he also began to work with individuals and small groups as a counsellor and spiritual teacher.
The article is an excerpt from his best known work, “The Power of Now”. It cover about the negative aspect of thinking in a way that it has been defined as thinking can isolate someone’s life from the true world without they realizing it. Thinking also has been described as a disease which people tend to be the slaves of their own minds where they only know how to think. The author also stated that thinking has made the mind as a survival machine where people only know how to think critically, not creatively. Therefore, in my opinion, it is important for us to think about the difference between good and bad things in life.
