One teaching that I explored this year was the one proposed by Ekhart Tolle. I really think The Power Of Now is a very important book and I deeply sympathize with Ekhart as a spiritual teacher. I took my time trying to implement this vision in my everyday life and well... It's a lot harder than it may seem. I guess I was a little disappointed that it didn't quite make me full of joy or anything but it did make my life more bearable and it's definitely something I want to keep pursuing.
