He is best known for his first book published in 1997, entitled, The Power of Now. Tolle’s other famous books include A New Earth: Awakening Your Life’s Purpose and Guardians of Being. In 2008, Tolle’s famous book, A New Earth: Awakening Your Life’s Purpose, reached the top of the New York Times bestseller list. This successful book was recognized by Oprah Winfrey on her talk show, The Oprah Winfrey Show, and added to her book club. Later that year, Tolle and Winfrey teamed up to start a webinar series based on this book as well as Tolle’s teachings.
