Simply reading the book OR LISTENING (even in the background) to the CD's..the next day....Oh my God, life is more tranquil, people react differently...etc...and it STILL happens with every reading and after every day of listening to these incredible CD's.Every single word Eckhart writes/speaks is accurate (in my opinion). Listen to what he says then step out into life and watch.You don't even have to hear or understand every word to gain the immediate results within yourself and life...NO BOOK has acheived this so profoundly. NONE.
