Elizabeth Lesser Discusses Eckhart Tolle's 'A New Earth'

In my last post, Eckhart Tolle & Oprah-News About ‘A New Earth’ Chapters 3/4, I mentioned that every Monday night following Oprah & Tolle's live webcast class, the discussion continues with spiritual teacher and Omega co-founder, Elizabeth Lesser. 

Lesser takes calls and questions live.  If you miss it, the show repeats daily on  Oprah & Friends XM Radio channel. Here is Oprah & Friend's schedule.  You can see that 'A New Earth Web Event' repeats daily at different times and Elizabeth Lesser follows the Oprah & Tolle class.

Who is Elizabeth Lesser…I took a class with Elizabeth Lesser at Omega Institute where she took us on a beautiful meditation toward 'our passing'-death.  I was so mesmerized by her soft, clear and loving energy that I went up after class and told her that my dream would be to have her close by at the moment of death. 

I don't want this to sound morose.  It was such a beautiful experience that I felt much calmer about the prospect of death.  So I was smitten by this wonder of a woman and now Oprah is introducing her to the global community.  How fortunate for all of us!
