Summary: How to know Depak Chopra's intentions?
Comment: When I bought and started to read this book I was expecting to find out some new paths in getting closer to GOD but after I have read the first hundred pages I found out that Chopra has
written more about India/ns and their methods of healing than about GOD.

Each one of us is different and as the saying goes "One man's garbage is another ones treasure" but my one and only opinion regarding this book is :

"This book has a lot of nothing on almost everything and hell no
I couldn't waste my precious time on a book like this". Mind you
the Seven Spiritual Laws book was amazing just as if it was written by someone else! Hoping that mr.Chopra has made a lot of money I would like him to write books that can be read and appreciated by his readers.

As I said I am just sharing my opinion so I am sorry if I am
offending someone else's views regarding this book. Thank You.

Summary: Can we truly concieve of God?
Comment: This book combines the perrennial philosophy with modern science and suggests ways in which we can plausibly concieve of God in modern times. This is done in anthropomorphic terms; we can know God through ourselves. However it ought to be emphasised that in an important sense we cannot know God at all, for He always remains shrouded in mystery. The author`s notion that 'God is as we are' is only half-true if we are to reserve our claim to knowledge of God for the genuine spiritual experience of formless cessation. There is otherwise a tendency towards a kind of crass pantheism, implied here, which ignores human responsibility for good and evil. If we are to concieve of the spiritual in more realistic terms we need to take an holonic approach, and recognise that our own pathologies cannot be legitimised as the work of God. The book might better have been called how to know yourself, since it only refers to human experiences. In these terms the notion that 'God is as we are' is meaningless, since it is not God acting in the world but ourselves, as separate entities in different of states of conciousness.
Nonetheless, an enjoyable work which is both insightful and moving and will prove a challenge to scientific doubt.

Summary: A fake!
Comment: 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.
