The Soul's Journey into the Mystery of Mysteries.
The most ambition and important work yet from Deepak Chopra - an exploration of the seven ways we experience God. These are shaped not by any one religion, but by an instinct that is hardwired into the brain.
In this remarkable book, Chopra takes us step by step from the first stage, where the brain's "fight or flight" response leads us to a God who is an all-powerful and sometimes unpredictable parent, to the seventh stage, where the brain experiences God as pure being, beyond thought, a sacred presence. It is at this seventh stage that we attain a true, life-changing spiritual understanding of the world and our place in it; it is the level at which saints and sages dwell. All seven stages are available to each of us, all the time.
In 'How to Know God', Deepak Chopra charts a fascinating course for us, as we explore mysticism, religious ecstasy, genius, telepathy, multiple personality and clairvoyance, drawing insights from psychology, neurology and physics, as well as from the great religions. The result is vintage Chopra - that internationally celebrated blend of philosophy and science - applied to the greatest subject of all. This is the quest all of us are on, whether we realize it or not. This is the ultimate hunt for, as Chopra puts it, "God is our highest instinct to know ourselves." This remarkable book makes a dramatic and enduring contribution to that knowledge.
