Highly InformativeReview Date: 2007-10-31
Should be listed in the "poetry" or "fiction" section.Review Date: 2008-04-16
"Underlying our material being there exists what might be called a "quantum mechanical body," which is pure process, energy, and intelligence. Since the quantum mechanical body determines what the quantum body will be like, it is in the quantum mechanical body that we'll find the origins of chronic fatigue."
Trying to distill anything concrete, meaningful, or useful out of this book has only given me boundless quanta of new source of fatigue.

The reader begins with an overview of issues surrounding fatigue in our modern world and then takes a dosha quiz to determine their "type" according to Ayurvedic medicine. Having read several books on the subject of the Ayurvedic philosophy, I have to say that this was the best quiz to determine dosha I have seen thus far. Subsequent chapters have various recommendations for specific doshas when applicable. Dr. Chopra centers his text on several "Primary Energy Principles" which are statements emphasizing the connection of the body/mind and the fact that we derive our energy from the abundant energy resources of nature; lack of energy indicates an imbalance or block in this flow.
As with any Ayurvedic resource, the recommendations for overcoming fatigue are incredibly holistic. Beginning with key principles surrounding diet (by dosha) and good digestion, Dr. Chopra also encompasses issues of stress reduction (using breathing meditation, yoga postures, alternate nostril breathing exercises, and self-massage), tapping into the natural rhythms of the day (principles of good sleep, limiting high-focus or stimulating activities after dinner and before bed, getting fresh air and sunshine, getting exercise with recommendations by dosha), and paying attention not only to the health of the physical environment surrounding you but also of your mental and spiritual well-being. I found this last chapter to be particularly profound as I know many people who take to heart a "fitness plan" and never stop to examine why they do not experience passion or joy in their personal pursuits; they have stopped growing as people and the stagnation affects their bodies in profound ways despite their surface "care" of it.
If fatigue is an issue for you (is it not an issue for anyone?), this book is a recommended purchase as you will refer to it again and again as you seek to regain health and vitality in your everyday life.

Una maravillosa obra para intelectuales de la feReview Date: 2006-08-03
Volviendo al libro, considero que es una obra maravillosa y apta sobre todo para intelectuales en busca de horizontes de fe. Hay conmigo muchos que se cuestionan las supuestas "verdades" que nos han vendido a través de libros y ritos sagrados. Para aquellos librepensadores ávidos de otras miradas sobre esa esencia vital que llamamos Dios, para ellos es este libro. Que la intolerancia, la resignada aceptación y la rigidez mental siga pasando las páginas de la Biblia. Los demás, continuemos nuestra búsqueda, que por aquí empieza, con plumas sabias, que no tienen que ser de origen "divino" para captar nuestra inteligencia.
Quieres conocer al DIOS Verdadero? Lee la Biblia.Review Date: 2005-12-24
Pero sabemos que Fué Dios el que nos creo a su imagen y semajanza... Si quieres Conocer al Dios Verdadero, Lee La Biblia empezando por el Nuevo Testamento; La Unica Manera de tener un encuentro con Dios, es a traves de Jesucristo.
1 Juan4
1 AMADOS, no creáis á todo espíritu, sino probad los espíritus si son de Dios; porque muchos falsos profetas son salidos en el mundo.
2 En esto conoced el Espíritu de Dios: todo espíritu que confiesa que Jesucristo es venido en carne es de Dios.
Esta liga te puede ayudar para darte cuenta cual es el Dios
en el que Crees.
Un Dios que te conoce desde el vientre de tu madre y te creo para un propósito, o un Dios el cual tu te creas (de acuerdo a las filosofias de moda) para poder Vivir a tu manera.

Cada buscador de la Verdad y del Espiritu debe mantener los conceptos expuestos a mano mientras viaja en el camino del alma.
"Si queremos cambiar el mundo tenemos que empezar por cambiar a nostros mismos." Conocer a Dios el la meta, Chopra nos indica el camino pero Nuestro Camino se hace al andarlo.

My second peeve is with the artwork. The artwork just does not measure up to the first volume. Period. Nothing more to say.
I would recommend that readers first look through the issue in the libraries and then decide if they want to buy.

Good but don't give up Tagore's GitanjaliReview Date: 2000-05-21
On the other hand, I was not impressed by the introduction by Chopra ... whether it is helpful to you will depend upon your background in mysticism and literature. He makes too much of Tagore's friendly relationship with death - St. Francis wrote of "our Sister Bodily Death". Tagore's mysticism is in the long tradition of the collective world - east or west - his uniqueness is the superb poetry in which he shares his experience; this is not the emphasis of the introduction. But who cares - the poems are well worth pausing over.

return of the rishi: a doctor's story of spiritual transformation and Ayurvedic HealingReview Date: 2005-08-28
I have to admit I believe in yoga and its unique health benefits but this man is using and abusing people to make himself rich. His autlandish claims of levitation contests through meditation and other things like that are just a pack of lies. Please don't waste your good money on a fraud like Deepak Chopra.


Complex concepts made simpleReview Date: 2008-04-16
This particular book focuses on the phenomenon of synchronicities - those apparent coincidences that illustrate the larger forces at work in our lives. As the book's blurb states, "...there is no such thing as a meaningless coincidence."
The first part of SynchroDestiny focuses on the science that lies behind synchronicities and the Law Of Attraction. If you're looking for a simple, clear explanation of some of the principles of quantum physics and nonlocal intelligence (the field), this is it. Deepak is definitely very skilled in explaining complex concepts in a very user-friendly manner! This section of the book also goes deeply into the concepts of coincidence and intention.
The second part of the book is devoted to the practical exploration of the concepts. These exercises are centred around the process of meditation, using mantras to focus the mind. I found these exercises interesting and useful, although I altered the process of meditation described to fit with my own style of meditating. Deepak's methods may work for him and for others, but I found them to disruptive to my own rhythm, and I therefore had much more success when I integrated his techniques with my own. Don't be afraid to experiment a bit to find what works for you - there is no "one size fits all" size of meditating!
Throughout the book, Deepak makes reference to the ancient Eastern wisdom of Vedanta, which describes much of what quantum physics is only now discovering regarding how the universe functions. In this respect, it is also incredibly interesting to read SynchroDestiny's Appendix A, in which Deepak outlines the principles of the Hermetic tradition, which has its origins in ancient Greece, Rome and Egypt, to illustrate how these principles match those of the Vedanta. Reading these ancient teachings demonstrates clearly that the Law Of Attraction is not new!
Overuse of the EPR ParadoxReview Date: 2005-03-20
After this separation, we measure the spins of both the particles simultaneously and find that the spins are as expected. The only catch is, since the particles themselves don't 'know' what spin thy have, how did they coordinate between themselves (at a rate faster than the speed of light) and decide which of the properties each will exhibit? This sort of communication is termed a 'nonlocal' connection.
Deepak Chopra really goes to town with this nonlocal connection in his book Synchrodestiny, employing it to 'explain' such phenomena as how the human body performs the various metabolic activities so that one can enjoy a jog at the beach, how cognition is effected by the "'phase and frequency locking in' of the firing patterns of individual neurons in different parts of the brain," and so on.
I stopped reading Synchrodestiny after about a hundred pages or so. The problem with these books which attempt to draw legitimacy from science [a plague on your house, Capra, for starting the whole thing ;-)] is that you already have to be a believer to get anything positive from them. If you read them with an open mind, you end up shaking your head in skepticism at sentences like these, which have to be taken on faith, since there is no way to prove or disprove them:We are both local and nonlocal, an individual pattern emerging from nonlocal intelligence, which is also part of everyone and everything else ...The personal, local part of the soul exists at the quantum level.

-a satisfying read-Review Date: 2003-12-21
It sort of cleverly grabs you from the first few pages and beckons you with bare hints that an unfolding mystery is sure to follow should you continue reading. I found myself easily identifying with the religious and idealogical morass the protagonist experiences, and it seems revelant to the day and age in which we live.
Thick, compact and easily readable (to be fair, I did find some parts overly-breezy) without being overly simplistic or pollyannish, it provides an engaging reading experience. The author takes care to not produce something overly dense, causing the reader to become bored and lose interest; choosing not to bog and mire the reader down with sidebar note fuzzy pseudo religio-philisophical concepts.
This book could be just what the Dr. ordered to ease the mind and achieve a serene calm from the ripple effects of an increasingly troubled and chaotic world as we search to seek out and re-adjust our position in it.
