The Power of Now is talking about spiritual enlightenment - nonduality.
According to nonduality human form is an illusion and true freedom is achieved when you transcend that state.

The process of practicing present moment awareness helps you perform your dily activites better and be more peaceful. But that is only the beginning.

Continuing to practice or staying in that state will eventually lead you to get rid of your false mind or your ego - that which thinks you are separate from everything else. In simple words the Power of Now is talking about what you will experience when you practice the Buddhist meditation of watching your breath- Vipasana or Insight Meditation..........because following your breath means staying in this moment.
