I’m a big fan of Oprah’s book club even though I’m always a year or two behind in my reading. The book selection right now is Eckhart Tolle’s A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose. They even have an online classroom going on Oprah’s website to discuss the book and “A New Earth” as they put it.
A New Earth encourages ever yone of us to change the way we live in order to make a difference. To find purpose and meaning in our lives. Tolle asks (which reminds of Horton Hears a Who which is now out in movies), what can one person do to change the world? A New Earth is supposed to guide us in finding our purpose while also initiating change in the world that we live in.
The Sedona Method mirrors the same ideals as A New Earth. It provides “simple, powerful, easy-to-learn and duplicate technique that shows you how to uncover your natural ability to surrender – or let go. It naturally shows you how to let go of the tendencies that cause you to flee from freedom as opposed to whole heartedly embracing it.” The Sedona Method will provide you with the tools to let go of the limiting habits and thoughts that have prevented many of us from attaining inner peace and spreading it outwards. Sometimes when we look inward first, our outward vision becomes much clearer and lucid. Our awareness of us, and of what surrounds us and how we react to it is central to the teachings of a new earth and the Sedona method.
Call it what you want: self awareness, spiritual enlightenment, transcendence or a new earth. It is all the same, the search for a way of living peacefully and responsibly on this earth. It is what we all ultimately ask of ourselves, what is our purpose and what were we put on this earth to do? If you’ve embarked on this journey and need additional guidance, I suggest visiting the Sedona Method website and request for the free DVD and CD for additional background information to get you started.
