It's got a great buffet I am sure. Really, this is crap made up by the fundies, Oprah is Baptist. She has said so many times.

And the New Earth is somewhat compatable with Christianity. She did a 12 part series on it, and that was the #1 question. It is more on how one looks at the world, it isn't really that much of a leap of faith. I suppose it depends how rigid you are, generally.

She has gone crazy. She has been doing a program for the past year that is a self-study program of spiritual psychotherapy contained in three books. It is not a religion, but rather a psychological mind-training base on universal spiritual themes.

More like brain washing, I have read some of it and it is crazy and offensive to Christians.

Tolle says you don't need the future, or future lives, to find yourself, and you need to add nothing to "you" to find yourself.

Tolle believes that the New Testament contains deep spiritual truth, as well as distortions, which are due to a misunderstanding of Jesus's teaching. He teaches that when you are present, you access your inner knowing and you will sense what is true and what was added on or distorted.[6]

In Tolle's view, love comes into existence when you know who you are in your essence and then recognize the "other" as yourself. It is the end of the delusion of separation, which is created by excessive reliance on thinking.

In Tolle's view, this shift in consciousness for most people is not a single event, but a process, a gradual disidentification from thoughts and emotions through the arising of awareness.

A quote from him.....
True salvation is freedom from negativity, and above all from past and future as a psychological need.
Eckhart Tolle

"You find God the moment you realize that you don't need to seek God"

More new age junk she has gotten into.

Oprah is not christian and she outright denies Jesus Christ after having once followed him.......Woe to her if she doesn't get back to Jesus and get over herself. We need to pray for her.

I know nothing of Eckhart Tolle and the "New Earth"....so I will make no commentary.


As far as Oprah Winfrey.......it seems to be a modern spin on " if it feels good do it" without the consequence of the taken risk...........in fact, it fails to even recognize risk!
