 Visual beauty and inspiring words January 4, 2007

This was a wonderful gift to myself and I am so glad I took the time to view the two DVDs. Now when I need a refresher, I just pick up the book and view a lovely photograph and read the inspiring words.

I find Eckhart to be the clearest most succinct teacher. I don't know how he would feel about it but I consider him my SatGuru. Eckhart does not get bogged down by any particular religious dogma. Clear and beautiful.

This product comes with 2 DVDs and a book with beautiful nature photos taken by Eckhart with powerful quotes from the retreat next to the photos. Normally DVDs are more expensive than CDs, however somehow they've managed to price this package as if it were CDs, so already it's a great value!
If you are reading this you probably already are, like myself, a huge Eckhart fan. You will not be disappointed with these DVDs. I own practically everthing Eckhart has put out, and once again he does an amazing job. In addition to his "normal" talk about stillness and being present because that's all there is, he is really very funny and entertaining on these DVDs. Also, the picture and sound quality is quite good.
Tip: I purchased my copy of Findhorn Retreat directly from Eckhart's website because they include a FREE DVD with a 1 hour interview of Eckhart. I've always been curious about Eckhart as a person and this interviewer asks him many of the "personal" questions about his background, about growing up as a child, about the difference in his life now that he makes a lot of money (funny enough, he says he rarely buys things, that it's enough to just "look at them" and so the money hasn't made much of a change in his life at all!). Obviously he doesn't talk about these things during his usual presentations, so I found them very interesting to hear how he handles "fame and success".
I can't tell you how great this DVD is (it's called "The Simple Truth" and is only available from Eckharts site, but again, amazingly, they throw it in Free when you purchase the Findhorn DVDs and book!)
Hope this feedback helps!

If you're looking at this item, you must have some idea of what Tolle's amazing worldview is all about. If not, read the many raves under his book The Power Of Now.
I have not watched the DVDs yet, but I'm really impressed with the book, which alone is worth half the price: Tolle's own beautiful photos accompanied by thoughtful captions and brief musings from the lectures enclosed. It's an enjoyable way to refresh yourself with this man's simple yet profound wisdom.
The video is very nicely shot with multiple cameras, and well edited, by no means a locked-off, shaky YouTube video. It looks like a public-television live music performance, warm and intimately lit -- though of course there's no music, and of course this is just a guy talking for four hours. There are really no menus or scene selections, though the makers randomly added chapter breaks every 10 minutes.
If you like Tolle, you should enjoy this. It's a bargain, especially at Amazon prices, and a nice way to add some color to ET's crystal-clear vision of the world.
