Everday Immortality

Review: "The curvature of space-time is called gavity. It is part of the dance, the process of creation."

Though gravity may be thought of as this way, this is Chopra's wishful thinking. Do mankind really know much about gravity is?(Feyman says we can describe gravity but we don't know what it is.) How does dance and gravity make for creation?

"The Unified Field is the ground state of all there is. It is the potentiality for space time and space-time events"

How can mankind know that there is an Unified Field if he is within and part of it? Is it possible to know of a totality (Unified Field) if one is part of it?

Even if there is a Spirit (which I think there is), are Men able to discover the Spirit or the Unfied Field so that, as Chopra says, "the Spirit and the Unified Field are One". That is, if we cannot know what the Unified Field is, and the Vedic sages say that the Spirit can not be known or described, how does Chopra know that the Unified Field and the Spirit are one?

Why would we believe that the Spirit in the Unified Field exist in dimensions that Man even are aware of? That is, if space and time are four dimensions, are there other dimensions still? Why does anyone believe that the Spirit operates in dimensions we are aware of? Only a hundred years ago, scientists thought Newtonian laws explained it all. How soon before quantum mechanics be dethroned?

I don't understand how Chopra can claim to describe It, when It has been described as undescribable by the sages.

The problems go on and on.... This book is an exercise in creativity, without having thought through the implications thorougly.

Review: "The curvature of space-time is called gavity. It is part of the dance, the process of creation."

Though it may be thought of as this way, this is more like making things up. Do mankind really know much about gravity? How does dance and gravity make for creation?

"The Unified Field is the ground state of all there is. It is the potentiality for space time and space-time events"

How can mankind know that there is an unified field if he is part of it? Even if there is an atman or the Spirit (which I think there are), are Men able to discover the Unfied Field so that "the Spirit and the Unified Field are One.)

The problems go on and on.... This book is an exercise in creativity, without having thought through the implications thorougly.

Why would we believe that the Spirit in the Unified Field exist in dimensions that Man even are aware of?

Violates first rules of spirituality--how can the unknown be known, how can the esoteric be taught? It's not through quantum physics.

Summary: A Walk-Through Meditation
Review: I purchased this book with no knowledge of its contents other than what what Amazon.com had listed for it.

When I sat down to read it I flipped through the pages in dismay as the content seemed to be sentences of no-brainer content. It wasn't until later in the book that I discovered that the beginning "no-brainer"-isms were a process in the book to begin a walk-through meditation.

At the "Aaah...I get it...it's a meditation", the book was much more enjoyable, but only when it came to light that it was from that perspecive that it should probably be read.

As a walk-through meditation, it was enjoyable and uplifting. The journey was full of positive affirmations.

For me it was a relaxing experience. The content didn't particularly include anything that struck an epiphany of any sort, and certainly the book and its content and messages are directed to those of Pagan faith.

Summary: Great book
Review: This is a great book to meditate on and reflect upon. I great addition to the Chopak library. To better understand quantum physics I would recommend: The Self Aware Universe by AMit Goswani, Both the Spiritual Universe and the Dreaming Universe by Fred Alan Wolfe
