A asked this question about The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment:

There are many negative reviews and a lot of state that other books (both of a similar nature and not) are more worthwhile reading material. Any suggestions of what some of these books might be, or really any book to read instead of this?

People that don't get it, need to progressively level up to this book. This applies to any book of this kind. If people don't get this book, they'll also not get Yogi and Buddhist books that are suggested in other responses. I think many bad reviews happened because people were not able to digest abstract thinking in the book. I've read a lot of other books before I was able to read this one. Most of these books were about stoicism. What also helped me was some really challenging life experiences. Before that, I was not conscious enough to understand why I would even need this kind of knowledge.(less)
