Dear devotees of the Great Mother,

 

Namaste – i bow to the Primordial Mother who resides in you!

 

During the Dark Age, when mobs of righteous, ritualistic SYs roamed

the countryside looking for heretics like Deepak Chopra, Walter

Mercado and others, i had the misfortune of being a conscientious

objector in their company.... till fortune--confirming that i had

experienced enough ignorance and repulsion to most happily leave the

Montreal collective and forever wander alone--cast Her Eye of

Compassion that mercifully isolated and insulated me from the mobs of

the presiding priests of the InquiSYtion (WCASY).

 

This is a post for those who still do not have that consciousness or

courage to be conscientious objectors. It is about the heretic Walter

Mercado, which the righteous homophobic mob —goaded by the frenzy of

supreme self-realization —wanted to be burnt at the stake as they

believed he was gay (as Deepak was straight). May it prick their

conscience and remind them that the Dark Age still lingers in SY,

even though a decade has passed since humanity entered the Third

Millennium.

 

But the Divine Message of the Blossom Time must succeed and enter the

collective human consciousness. In the words of Walter Mercado,

" before it comes, the old must be purged. The only way it will be

purged is through a washing away of the sins of the past and thinking

of the past, to open the way for what is to be. And as many devout

believers in scripture say, those times are already upon us. "

 

If only they knew that Jesus Christ--by sending the Comforter to

explain in detail His core message and teaching, and initiate the Age

of the Last Judgment and Resurrection--kept His promise of universal

salvation and evolution into the eternal spirit!

Praise for LIFE AFTER DEATH

 

" Three cheers for Deepak's courage to express his beliefs and wisdom

about a subject many fear and avoid. This book will help us to open a

door to a subject few seemed prepared to explore because they cannot

explain it. I know from personal experience that near-death and past-

life experiences are not a matter of imagination. I can believe

because I have had the experience. Consciousness exists when our

bodies do not. From my own life and my work with patients I know that

we are aware of the future and the past at an unconscious level,

which when made conscious helps us to understand and survive. Life is

a mystery, so read on and help us to enter the darkness and light a

candle. "

 

—Bernie Siegel, M.D., author of 365 Prescriptions for the Soul and

101 Exercises for the Soul

 

 

" In this remarkable book, Deepak Chopra turns to the anomalies in

science that modern physicists are trying to explain, and considers

how the rishis, the ancient sages of Vedanta, dealt with the very

same question. According to the `observer effect' in physics, for

example, the very act of looking at an electron forces it to leave

the quantum soup of pure potential and take specific form. Vedic

rishis believed that seeing is the ultimate act of creation—that

through consciousness each of us shapes the universes we experience.

By marrying science with wisdom in Life After Death, Chopra builds

his case for an afterlife in which our most essential self, the seer

that observes our experiences in this temporary home that we call the

self, uses the end of this life-time to pass over into the next. This

is an intellectual and spiritual tour de force. "

 

—Professor Robert Thurman, Columbia University, author of Infinite

Life and The Tibetan Book of the Dead

 

 

" Deepak Chopra has been my friend and mentor for nearly twenty years.

Now, when we baby boomers are finally admitting our own mortality, he

has tackled the ultimate subject which fascinates us all; life after

death. Drawing from many cultures, and emphasizing the idea of Karma

from his own, Deepak interweaves mythical love with first-hand

spellbinding anecdotes to somehow make the subject of death very

useful and relevant to making the most time on the Earth here and

now. A must-read for everyone who will die. "

 

—Candace B. Pert, Ph.D., author of Everything You Need to Know to

Feel Good

 

 

" Deepak Chopra has written a masterpiece that is long overdue in our

spiritual culture. Life After Death: The Burden of Proof is a bold

and comforting guide into the afterlife. Eternity is the true home of

the soul, yet we fear to explore experience fo death and our place

beyond now. Deepak has brilliantly accomplished this journey on our

behalf. "

 

—Caroline Myss, author of Anatomy of the Spirit and sacred Contract

 

 

" I, perhaps like many others, most often think of and look to Deepak

Chopra as a physician, pioneer, and major influence in the huge

positive change in Western attitudes towards holistic medicine. In

this book he is much more than that. He addresses the ultimate

mystery—death—as a physician, a philosopher, and a teacher. His

presentation of concepts such as the `journey of the soul' or

the `music of the spheres' reminded me of the readings of my

grandfather, Edgar Cayce, who many years ago also provided the world

with a more hopeful view of the transition we are all destined to

make. I recommend this book for all of us who are concerned about our

own eventual death, and the death of those closest to us. "

 

—Charles Thomas Cayce, executive director, Association for Research

and Enlightenment, Inc.; Edgar Cayce Foundation, Inc.

 

 

" Deepak Chopra masterfully navigates a bewildering but profoundly

important landscape in Life After Death: The Burden of Proof.

Gracefully weaving parables, poignant experiences, religious lore,

and scientific evidence. Chopra's survey of the afterlife is at once

contemplative, heartening, and satisfying. "

 

—Dean Radin, Ph.D., senior scientist, Institute of Noetic Science

 

 

" This is not an `easy' book, but it is a thoroughly fascinating one

that could well become one of the most important reads of your

lifetime. "

 

—Doris Wilsdorf, professor emeritus, University of Virginia, and

inventor

 

 

" A fabulous read! While western science continues to watch the world

with its nose pressed to precise lenses with limited focus, Deepak

takes you by the hands and leads you on a wonderful journey right

through those looking glasses to the very inside of eternally

creative consciousness as revealed by the Vedic rishis and reflected

in other great world cultures. Then he shows you why this inside view

better explains the data of Western science than its own worldview!

In short, this is a highly effective preview of the integral global

science of the future that will dramatically change the way we see

and act in our world. As you take this fascinating journey with

Deepak, the immortality promise of its title is easily fulfilled

along the way. "

professor; coauthor of EarthDance: Living Systems in Evolution
