Book Review: Guardians of Being

0 Comments

Guardians of Being combines the words of Eckhart Tolle, author of The Power of now as well as A new Earth, with the whimsical illustrations of Patrick McDonnell, the creator of the MUTTS cartoons,  in a heartwarming, inspiring as well as cheerful package.  The Oprah magazine has called the book “an influenced partnership between spiritual instructor Echkart Tolle as well as comic strip artist Patrick McDonnell.  A book to make you wiggle with joy.”

From the publisher:  “More than a collection of witty as well as lovely drawings, the marriage of Patrick McDonnell’s art as well as Eckhart Tolle’s words conveys a profound like of nature, of animals, of humans, of all life-forms.  Guardians of Being celebrates as well as reminds us of not only the oneness of all life however likewise the question as well as delight to be discovered in the present moment, amid the charm we in some cases fail to remember to notice all around us.”

This is a book to be treasured.  The wisdom of the words, integrated with the lovely illustrations, make this a book to be savored, not just to be read.  browsing with this book is an almost meditative experience, as well as it will many certainly remind the visitor about what truly matters in life.

Two of my preferred quotes from the book are:

Everything natural – every flower, tree, as well as animal – has essential lessons to instruct us if we would only stop, look, as well as listen.

Just viewing an animal carefully can take you out of your mind as well as bring you into the present moment, which is where the animal lives all the time – surrendered to life.

I have always believed that animals are remarkable teachers.  It’s good to see that I’m in great company.  treat yourself to this book – as well as while you’re at it, pick one up for your closest friend.

Hi Ingrid,

I chose to top at one of your earliest posts. I’m pleased I did since you provided me something good to look into from an author as well as mystic that I admire rather a bit – the “Guardians of Being” book by Eckhart Tolle.

I look ahead to ordering it. like a few of his other books, he has a great deal of great evaluations on Amazon.

Thanx,

This book is a bit different from Eckhart Tolle’s others, however I believe you’ll delight in it.
