Many of you may have already seen this. I basically offer it because it just seems so odd. But, I think it would be interesting in a "combat" kind of way if someone supported the product itself or tried it, etc.

Brad Warner had something to say about this on his blog, Hardcore Zen.

Well that ad is pretty scary! And the article about it is hilarious and so true!

Duff had some interesting things to say in response to the article - I don't suppose he's been around here, eh?

Yep this advertisement is blatantly capitalizing on Tolle's poplularity... notably he does not seem to have any products listed in the $199 package. The sickening thing about this is the degree to which it is geared towards money rather than message and the implicit hypocrisy given the nature of the message. How in the world could it possibly be valued at that price? This really is the kind of thing that makes people cynical about spirituality.
