Guest guest Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 " Mind-expanding! Acting as a trusty guide whose words spring not from this-is-so or believe-this but from what-if? And why-not?, Deepak Chopra takes us on a fascinating exploration of a vast continent of beliefs, stories, myths, testimonies, and brain research, demystifying a hitherto foggy domain while facilitating our self- examination. Like the rishis of old, Chopra invites us to participate in an endless experiment. The journey includes surprises (our reality here may determine our afterlife) as well as comforts (death is a creative leap). One cannot read Life After Death with any degree of openness without being delighted, empowered, and changed. " —Jim Ballard, author of Mind Like Water " Some books are divinely inspired transmissions with the power to change the way we think, act, and live. This is one of them, written by a scientist and physician who is also one of the most luminous spiritual teachers of our time. If you've ever wondered about the meaning of life and longed to awaken to your full potential, this book is sacred treasure. " —Joan Borysenko, Ph.D., author of Minding the Body, Mending the Mind and Seven Paths to God " With great clarity and depth of insight, Deepak Chopra guides us through the process of understanding who we truly are, and leaves us with a richer, more complete awareness of the miracles of both life and death. " —Laurie Monroe, president and CEO, Monroe Institute " Belief in life after death is a universal constant. This book will help many find certainty and comfort in this possibility by exploring many lines of evidence pointing to the infinite, eternal nature of human consciousness. " —Larry Dossey, M.D., author of The Extraordinary Healing Power of Ordinary Things " Deepak Chopra has written what will be considered his most brilliant book yet: Life After Death: The Burden of Proof. He skilfully draws the reader into his inquiring and limitless mind on a topic relevant and fascinating to all of us—Death itself—and he does that in a way that we are profoundly touched, expanded, and inspired. In his writings and talks, Deepak always gives us the gift of freeing ourselves from the limitations of our mistaken confining identity. Readers of Deepak's also know we can always count on him to liberate us from the prison of our greatest and most petty fears. In this breathtaking book, he does all of that again and again. Through exquisite prose, mystical poetry, and riveting storytelling, the reader is given a whole new way of seeing death and therefore life itself. As a scholar and teacher, physician and healer, master communicator and twenty-first-century sage, Deepak Chopra has written a masterpiece that draws on many disciplines, communicates on multiple dimensions, and delivers a sweeping transformation on every level. I was hooked from the moment I started reading and found myself buzzing with excitement, moved to tears, filled with awe, and profoundly altered by this book. My unexamined and unconscious assumptions about death have been unearthed and overturned. I absolutely loved this book and am transformed by its message in ways I am just beginning to understand. I urge everyone to read it. It will change your life and your death. " —Lynne Twist, president, Soul of Money Institute " In Life After Death, Deepak Chopra opens the door to our true potential: the afterlife. He shows us that death can be a profound confrontation with the radiance of our soul. And he guides us in a hundred irresistible ways into this journey, which begins now. This book is a must-read for those who want to find out how `passing on' can be the most meaningful adventure of your life. " —Margot Anand, author of The Art of Everyday Ecstasy " If I had any doubts about the afterlife, I don't have them anymore. Deepak Chopra has cast his inimitable light on the darkened corners of death. I think this is his greatest contribution yet. " —Marianne Williamson, author of The Gift of Change " Deepak Chopra again casts a spell on his readers. It is a spell—not of trance or deep sleep—but of waking up to our full potential as conscious agents in the evolutionary process. In this enchanting book, Deepak tackles the deep mystery of what happens after we die. Acknowledging myriad cultural models that have developed to answer this question, he does not stop with simple answers. Rather, the master teacher urges us to consider the possibility that we create our own afterlife—that we are makers of our own reality. It is nothing sort of a wake-up call for each of us to embrace the fullness of our unique human capacities, now and beyond death. I highly recommend this book. " —Marilyn Mandala Schlitz, Ph.D., coauthor of Consciousness and Healing: Integral Approaches to Mind-Body Medicine " Ancient wisdom and the latest scientific discoveries are masterfully presented, showing their increasing convergence on the nonlocal nature and survival of consciousness and the power of the unseen. In a potent array of fascinating evidence, illustrative narration, and compelling insights, Dr. Chopra treats the fundamental question that everyone ultimately seeks to answer, leaving us with a strong sense of confidence and comfort. " —Marc S. Newkirk, partner, Symmetria Technologies Inc., and member, U.S. National Academy of Engineering. " In an age of materialism, Deepak Chopra's Life After Death: The Burden of Proof lifts one's spirit with new hope. Full of spiritual wisdom, this book opens new vistas on the afterlife and points to new worlds of freedom, love, and joy. " —Michael Murphy, author, chair, and cofounder of Esalen Institute " Once again Deepak Chopra lights the way through the darkness of confusion, illuminating the glory of our true selves. Now he takes us to the edge of our own deepest inner truth about life after death by sharing with us his vision and his wisdom, which, as always, is breathtaking, healing, and soul-opening. This book, and Deepak Chopra himself, are enormous gifts to humanity.
