Reading: The New Earth by Eckhart Tolle

I have been reading a book called THE NEW EARTH by Eckhart Tolle, fascinating stuff! This book is about how we are two...our true authentic self AND our Ego. Once you can identify the EGO in yourself, you will gain such control and power over your actions, your thoughts, the reasons behind what you do why you act in certain ways . You will also begin to see EGO in others and learn why others act the way they do. It will empower you in so many ways, you will get to know yourself like you have never known yourself.
What it has allowed me to do is analyze why things make me mad...is it because these things hurt me in any way OR is it because it hurts my EGO? Once you can do that, you will learn to let go of the things that are EGO. You will be one step closer to your authentic self.
It is a deep and basic book. Listening to the Podcast at Oprah.com is most helpful as well.
This is a book worth buying and reading.
