The Power of Now Practice Manual

If you are like me, you have tried meditation, dabbled in Buddhism and the Four Teachings of the World, heard some interpretations of the Analects of Confucius and Taoism, and also studied Adlerian psychology. When you were young, you were aware of the harm caused by the so-called family of origin but could never get rid of it. You have been wandering in the maze of emotional and personal growth. You seem to feel that you need a higher level of philosophy or even religion to escape, so you rush through the above fields without finding the right way. Then I recommend you to read this short book intensively. I am currently reading it for the third time. Read the words, not listen to them. I feel that I have not yet understood the precise meaning of this book, and of course I cannot fully implement it, but it gives me a sense of practical guidance, just like its title. It is not the kind of analysis and self-analysis in psychology, nor is it a logical derivation in philosophy, nor is it a summary in religion, nor is it a minimalist code of conduct such as the Analects of Confucius and the Four Precepts (sometimes I find it difficult to believe). In the aforementioned fields, I can only agree but cannot recognize it. When I read this book, I often felt that the words and sentences were obscure and difficult to understand, but he did give some clear, understandable, and implementable methods that cut off pain like a sharp sword, rather than resolving pain or covering up pain. I think it makes up a step for me to achieve enlightenment, that is, with my qualifications, I cannot achieve enlightenment through philosophy or religion. I cannot resolve the source of pain in one move. I need to face the pain first, look directly at it, and then cut off the connection with it. Maybe this book is not as magical as I said, maybe it just fits a pain point in my personal mental journey during this period, but if there is a one in 10,000 chance, it will be the same as you.

Those who mess up my mind will not be able to keep the things of yesterday; those who abandon me will be troubled by today's things. This book gives the answer to how to liberate yourself from thinking, how to break the habit of resisting the present, denying the old model of the present, and how to use your brain creatively. Use the power of the present moment to let go of all problems, anxiety, and distress, and enjoy inner peace and joy. This is a very good book and worth recommending. After reading it, I have a deeper understanding of the importance of living every day well.

A very good book! This book emphasizes living in the present moment. In fact, everyone understands this principle, but how to practice it? The author provides detailed steps and methods for this, such as connecting with the inner body, utilizing and letting go of negative attitudes, etc. This book is a sequel to "The Power of Now". It is recommended that you read the first book first and then this one. Because the first book is more theoretical, this one is more practical. It will be better to lay a good theoretical foundation first and fully understand the author's thinking before reading this book.

Cultivate your moral character and cultivate your heart. The power of the present moment is not influenced by thoughts, does not judge, does not speculate, and is aware of itself. The pain body is your ego, your mental identity, your unconscious. Live in the moment and live consciously. Don't live in mental identification. Live your true self, develop compassion, forgive others, let yourself go, reconcile the past, forgive everything, and be grateful for everything. Only by truly letting go of the past and pain can you truly heal yourself and start a new life of your own.

Past, present and future, all we can grasp is the present point in time. So how do we keep our attention focused on the present, instead of wandering to the past and future? The author of this book gives the answer. From three aspects: absorbing the power of the moment, practicing in love relationships, and accepting and surrendering, this book introduces in detail and professionally how we can master the secrets of life, liberate the mind, break habitual resistance, enhance mental acceptance, and heal ourselves through meditation.

The practice manual is a supplement and practical operation to the complete version. There are no stories or sharing, only pure practical theory. Combine the theory to experience the present moment, realize awareness in the presence, understand the mind and nature, and encourage you together.

The translation is really good. Then if you think according to what the author said, you will really get a kind of tranquility in the moment. You can separate yourself from the pain in your mind. You can use your own body to observe the thoughts and behaviors in your mind. You will no longer be persistent and painful, and you will no longer ask others to change. Learn to accept yourself, your own pain, your own shortcomings and the shortcomings of others.

I have a new understanding of the word "thinking": thinking identification creates a series of concepts, labels, images, words, judgments and definitions, which hinders all your real relationships. These things stand between you and yourself, between you and other people, between you and nature, between you and God. It is these thoughts that create the illusion of isolation, the illusion that you are completely separate from everyone else. Therefore, you have forgotten a basic fact, that is: although our physical appearance seems to be separate from all living things, you are actually one with all living things.

Be present, be present, be present, kill all negative emotions in the present moment. There is no past, no future, only the present. Break away from the illusion of time and let the flame of consciousness illuminate the darkness!

This is definitely a good book that can awaken the subjective consciousness of human beings. It is definitely worth reading for everyone who is interested in awakening. If a person can awaken his personal consciousness according to the guidance in the book, it will definitely be the greatest happiness in life [laugh][laugh][laugh] I have read the paper version many times before, and now I have read the electronic version many times. I feel that this book is definitely comparable to the Taoist classic "Tao Te Ching". I now solemnly make a vow: I will read this book repeatedly in my life and practice seriously according to the guidance in the book, so as to gain something in my lifetime (enlightenment is the awakening of consciousness). Namo Amitabha, the God of infinite blessings and mercy [laughs][laughs][laughs]

I want to practice what the book says

Forget about time, forget about thinking, and fully accept the present moment

The practical methods provided in this book are very practical! Just like I didn't do well in the exam last time and was very depressed, but after reading this book, I tried to live in the present and not think about the past, and I felt really much better. Moreover, this book can also be used as a daily exercise manual to remind yourself not to impose pain on yourself and others. This is really great!

A super practical energy awakening manual. The article is concise and clear, and it points directly to the root of our human suffering. Most of us live in the illusion of our minds all our lives, with countless messy thoughts and countless desires. What are we living for? Why is the life so different from what you want? In today's era of cluttered Internet information and overproduction of materials, it is even more important to awaken quickly, explore our hearts, and find our true selves, so that we will not get lost in desires!

After reading this book, I have a deeper understanding of myself, and it is useful for obsessive-compulsive thinking.

Live in the present and don't worry about the future

Thank you for meeting me, and thank you to the author!

Very good, worth learning

It really gave me a deeper understanding of my own world. Thank you for being able to finish reading this book.

It would be better if 🈶Practice manual [awkshak][awkkward smile][awkkwk][top post][top post][top post]

Let your thoughts take on invisible wings and fly proudly, just as Angela Zhang sang (Invisible Wings), let your consciousness fly over the past.

Enlightenment means living in this moment, and surrender means accepting the surroundings without resistance or judgment. I hope I can focus on such a state for a long time.

What this book did to me was to wake me up from my dream

Accept the present moment fully and become one.

Finally understand the source of pain, let go of fantasy and resistance, accept and surrender to reality.

Awesome, this book served as a beacon of light for me when I was in the most difficult time. Highly recommended

I finished reading it on the morning of September 4, 2025. Thanks to the author, I have a deep understanding of the awareness, surrender, and presence of human life situations.

I feel a lot calmer after watching it, I will watch it several times again
