Summary: A New Year's Gift to oneself and all....
Review: A New Year's Gift to oneself and all.......
No one could have written this book except someone from within the "virtual domain," and Dr. Chopra has most certainly given us all the opportunity to merge our religious and spiritual beliefs and questions into a single understanding of God. Years of study alone could not give such joy, such hope, and such promise at a time when so many of us are searching to "find" God. He is truly a great Master here to guide many of us through his spiritual gift of writing. Also recommended: Awakening by Ram Dass and Kryon Books and Marianne Williamson (any) "Return to Love."

Summary: Excellent Scientific Treatment
Review: Deepak is looking at God through India glasses, tinted differently than rose-colored perhaps, but definitely different than the God I know and love. There are better books on the market which explore and take God "out of the box," such as Tiffany Snow's "Psychic Gifts in the Christian Life - Tools to Connect." Through Tiffany's glasses (and I know we all wear some version of them) I saw many more facets, rainbow colors and true gems of the nature of God than I did through Chopra, whether you are a Christian or not. I did like Chopra's "7 Laws" though, and some of his other works.

Summary: Nice try but far away from reality.
Review: Dr. Chopra tried to show the face of God but I think he tried to combine concepts of different religions and he failed. I like only one thing about this book & i.e. he's inviting world towards God.
Being a muslim I know what's "Night of Qadar" in Islam. His explanation is way beyond from the concept of many Islamic sects. It seems he's trying to sell his book to all religions so he can fill his pocket.
After reading couple of chapters, I could not link with previous chapters and I became bore. Then I left this book away.

Summary: Brilliant Book ¿ and True Companion
Review: How to describe this amazing book in few words? Impossible, as impossible for all of us to imagine how significantly this book will influence our society in the nearest future. Chopra's ideas are not just revolutionary - they are fundamentally changing what we all knew about God and ourselves before. This brilliant book is a true revelation for all readers and it is full of optimism and positive energy. Do not simply read this book. It has all the potential to become your devoted friend. Read it again and again, look inside yourself, find your God. Find out what you have already achieved on your eternal journey of learning your God and how to proceed further. Befriend this book and you will have an excellent tool for analyzing your conscious and unconscious thoughts, your emotions, doubts, you fears, your hopes. Like a good friend this book will save you in the difficult moment of your life, will comfort and support you, will make you smile and love life again. And like a good friend in the moment of happiness this book will share your joy and will direct you to the new achievements. Excellent work by a great philosopher and a Must Have Companion for everybody!

Summary: Infinite Wisdom, Can You Define That?
Review: I enjoyed Deepak Chopra's book, and plan to use it as a reference during my lifetime to review other people's different "constructions" of "their GOD". For me it's hard to believe that this world's "work-a-job" people (most people) have time to read, research, and (most important) practice spirituality to an extent to give credit to another's (humans-Deepak's) ability to grasp an ineffable infinite intelligence or Being. Read a modern (LIFE Application Bible) Bible and after sorting through numerous conflicting footnotes after 6 months, you too will wonder why this Bible seems so "contradictory" (Yes even inspired with the Holy Spirit). I say this after seeing others "doubt" Chopra's reasonings. Let me end with this: Create a Universe, heck Galaxy of Billions of Suns and Planets full of infinite wonders and life...and then perhaps you can talk to us, and our egos will be able to comprehend why "negative reviewers" understand so well how 'dumb and boring' extensive works (like Deepaks) are elementary. Give me a break critics, perhaps once in "Heaven" you'll be arguing (to God himself) your right of entry in your unbelief in anything but your own falible EGO. May God bless us all, and slow us down enough to notice that He may have already done so...daily, daily daily, GOD BLESS YOU. /////// + B. Morgan

Summary: Journey to know God
Review: If you indeed want to take this journey, a good starting point is "Autobiography of a Yogi" by Swami Paramahamsa Yogananda. I don't need to say anymore, you will figure it out for yourself.

Summary: Read book, then read reviews for each person's "stage"
Review: Incredible! People supposedly read the book (like the previous writer from Denver) and then seem to ignore the entire premise (which is that we each project the God we need, as the author maps out in 7 general stages. Each God is not false, only that the particular conceptualization reflects only each person's own personality and level of consciousness...). Several reviewers PROVE Chopra's point, by instead holding that the book is bogus because it does not honor that particular reviewer's God projection (i.e., their dogma of ultimate truth)! Take my advice: buy the book if you think you have an objective open mind and soul, read it a couple times in quiet depth, then come back here and read the reviews - it is hilarious! For example, Chopra never said that God is merely the physical universe, as the previous reviewer asserts. The people who protest the loudest are those most attached to their particular God "stage" ("my projection of God is real, the others offered in the book are bogus and flawed. Chopra missed the boat because he does not proclaim supreme my view or those of my guru or favorite spiritual author"). Maybe the book will get through to you? Then you will see illustrated constantly by the people you meet each day. Your response? Humor and compassion? Let's hope so.

Summary: Excellent Scientific Treatment
Review: It is clear that this book draws its ideas from great Eastern books in addition to including examples from Western Culture. It does make a lot of sense to draw interpretations and ideas from the great Eastern sources since they are complete and scientific. Western religions are more shallow and superficial and dwell more in the material world. How else can one explain the Western books talking more about Commandments for living? I think that most critics of this book have a problem because they are non-accepting of different or more complete universal interpretations of God. Most of these people are so immersed with their lives in their world, this planet and following the commandments that they cannot see the rest of the Universe.

Summary: Can we truly concieve of God?
Review: This book does not deal with the question of the Divine but with the description of several common images of God - not with God Himself. The style is confusing and confused, repeating over and over a hardly helpful classification of how God can be perceived in the human mind. No help at all to unveil all this (mis-)conceptions of God we human beings carry with us but almost reinforcing them by describing them again and again! Stones instead of bread and disgusting talkative...How is it possible that this man with such a shallow "teaching" could become the spiritual guide of so many people in the US and abroad?There are deep, clear and wonderful guides on the journey to unification with the ONE - people who do "know"!There is no "knowledge" in this book.
