OPRAH’S NEW EARTH

Oprah Winfrey is coming under fire from Evangelical circles for promoting the teaching of Eckhart Tolle. She’s conducting a live, free, 10-week interactive web seminar based on his book A New Earth. Barnes & Noble says it’s the fastest-selling title in the history of Oprah's Book Club. Tolle blends tenets of Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Sufism, Christianity and other faiths into his teachings. More than 700,000 people in 125 countries have signed up for the seminar and more than 3-and-a-half million copies of his spiritual self-help guide have been sent out.
