Deepak Chopra has undertaken a mighty task- to make the invisible "visible" and the unknowable, "knowable." Sages and scholars expend tremendous amounts of energy trying to explain God. This author does it simply and clearly. I have watched his many televised lectures and appearances. He writes with the same confidence and ease; offering us the process of knowing God through personal experiences, dreams, visions and daily miracles. Reading his account of how the human anatomy corresponds to laws of physics, and his description of our spiritual essence as enlightened souls, is inspiring. This book is a welcome addition to his earlier works, "Seven Laws of Spiritual Success- Fulfillment of Dreams. Highly recommended.

From Publisher
You don't have to believe in God in order to experience God. - Deepak Chopra
The celebrated author of Ageless Body, Timeless Mind and The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success has written his most ambitious and important work yet, a runaway international bestseller that has inspired hundreds of thousands of readers to rethink their concept of God.
According to Chopra, the brain is hardwired to know God. The human nervous system has seven biological responses that correspond to seven levels of divine experience. These are shaped not by any one religion (they are shared by all faiths), but by the brain's need to take an infinite, chaotic universe and find meaning in it. How to Know God describes the quest each of us is on, whether we realize it or not. For, as Chopra puts it, "God is our highest instinct to know ourselves." This book makes a dramatic and enduring contribution to that knowledge.

Prolific author Chopra (The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, Creating Health, etc.) explores the different ways people apprehend God. Chopra contends that there are seven responses to God and that "the brain cannot register a deity outside the list of seven responses." Chopra's seven include: fight or flight (a God who can save us from danger), reactive (a rule-giving God), restful awareness (a God who brings tranquility out of chaos), intuitive (a good and forgiving God), creative (God as Creator), visionary (God as exalted) and sacred (God as the source of everything). Different personalities envision God differently, says Chopra; a go-getter determined to shape his own destiny will imagine a creative God, whereas someone who feels she is just barely getting through the day will have the stage-one "fight or flight" response, envisioning a God who can rescue her. For Chopra, these seven ascending stages are normative; someone who has reached stage seven is more in tune with God than someone stuck at stage one. (Readers from law-based religions may feel dismayed that Chopra so devalues their "stage two" conception of God.) To help spiritual pilgrims reach the seventh stage, Chopra recommends that they see themselves and others "in the light," forgive themselves when they err and seek out the sacred and the unknown. Like most theories that claim to be all-encompassing, Chopra's scheme is often reductive, but this will nonetheless be a worthwhile addition to the spiritual seeker's library. |

The most important book about God for our times. Deepak Chopra is an amazing combination of William James and Shankara. In this book he has built for us a magical stairway to ascend to life changing experience of the sacred, keeping our scientific outlook and an ever more open-heart and mind. |
Ken Wilber, Author, Integral Psychology, USA
<2008-08-01 00:00>
Deepak Chopra has introduced literally millions of people to the spiritual path, and for this we should all be profoundly grateful. In How to Know God, Deepak continues his pioneering out-reach, showing that God consciousness unfolds in a series of stages, each important and remarkable in itself, yet each getting closer to Source. This is at once a map of Spirit, and a map of your own deepest Self, for the last analysis, they are one and the same. |
Oscar Arias, President of Costa Rica, 1986-1990; 1987 Nobel Peace Laureate, USA
<2008-08-01 00:00>
Spiritual health and moral responsibility are two of the most precious gifts that any leader can offer. Few thinkers have done as much as Deepak Chopra to allow millions to embrace the project of personal and social transformation. I agree completely with Dr. Chopra's insight that "if we want to change the world, we have to begin by changing ourselves." In a world where overcoming poverty, inequality, greed, and cynicism will be the great human challenges of the 21st century, Deepak Chopra offers life-affirming suggestions for developing a more just and peaceful society. |
