Eckhart Tolle is a spiritual teacher and author known for his best-selling books The Power of Now and A New Earth: Awakening to your Life's Purpose.
Tolle states that by the age of 29 he was mostly depressed and didn’t really have a purpose in life. He experienced an "inner transformation" that led to years and years of exploring and understanding his previous state of mind and what helped him overcome it.
A spiritual author inspired and influenced by many religious teachings, Tolle says that “religions have become so overlaid with extraneous matter that their spiritual substance has become almost completely obscured”.
Maintaining a neutral position and focusing first on humanity, Eckhart Tolle believes that being spiritual doesn't have to be about religious beliefs.
