Life after Death
This Deepak Chopra's masterpiece very clearly (and in simple terms) explains how is that conscience masters us and the whole cosmos. It goes on to explain with beautiful stories, metaphors and scientific evidence the mechanisms behind our brains and mind, our bodies, our souls and the definitive connections between us all and every single "thing" in the universe. We are and everything else, the expression of the cosmos! The author's background in Vedanta ties the book together. While he explores many avenues ancient and modern it is tied together by returning to the Vedas and the rishis. This appealed to me for I have found this to be the root of the perennial philosophy- the anchor of the Golden Thread. The teaching of the three domains (physical objects, subtle objects, and pure consciousness) within the interpenetrating Reality of the Akashic field resonates with truth. Moreover, the concept that you can switch your primary allegiance from the physical realm to the subtle in life- and be supported by it- has been satisfactorily verified in my own life. Similarly, over identification with the physical realm will hold you back from what is truly significant in life. I would highly recommend this book to all who are pursuing a spiritual path.

Soul Contact Very Real
Never doubt the multi-dimensional possibilities of the soul. Deepak Chopra's wonderfully wise book echoes and expands on my own personal experience. "The afterlife," he says, ¿is not a mystery to be solved. It's an opportunity to expand life beyond boundaries." If you're reading this review, it might be because you've just "lost" someone and are searching for comfort and for answers. And if that's the case, my heart goes to you. Nothing can take away the pain of your loss, (time, however, helps) but you might find some comfort in reading Deepak's wise words. If you can't read right now, get his books on CDs... Then listen, and let his voice sooth your battered soul. I recommend this book highly. Also, check out Stephanie Riseley's LOVE FROM BOTH SIDES for a vital relationship encounter between planes, to further resolve issues left undone at the time of her mate's passing!

Changed thinking
Being raised in a christian background, I have never really felt comfortable with it's beliefs. I have been looking for something and feel like I may have found it. It makes sense what Deepak says. You will finish this book feeling much better.

Fascinating!
Deepak Chopra offers proof through near death experiences for the afterlife that needs to be considered and his writing provides confidence to people who fear death. This book makes the afterlife a rational topic for understanding.

Once again Deepak Chopra is thinking and prodding us to think for ourselves about the hereafter, to leave behind the rigid structures of most religions, to find our own God, our own eternal life on our own terms. BRAVO! Brave man!

Wonderful, Wise Book
I'm a writer, and working hypnotherapist. Seven years ago yesterday, my husband died in my arms and then "came back" to me, and that's the story that my book, "Love From Both Sides," tells. "Life After Death," Deepak Chopra's wonderfully wise book echos and expands on my own personal experience. "The afterlife," he says, "is not a mystery to be solved. It's an oppoutnunity to expand life beyond boundaries." If you're reading this review, it might be because you've just "lost" someone and are searching for comfort and for answers. And if that's the case, my heart goes to you. Nothing can take away the pain of your loss, (time, however, helps) but you might find some comfort in reading Deepak's wise words. If you can't read now, get the books on CDs... and listen, and let his voice sooth your battered soul. I recommend this book highly.

A big let down.
I bought this book as a Christian looking to gain some insight and ideas on death and the afterlife. The first few chapters were very well written, until i had gotten a taste of Chopra's warped view of Christianity. By only page 105 i was forced to shelve the book, after Chopra implied that Christians cancel out their sins by committing good deeds, and we only get into heaven by doing good deeds, and im sorry but that is far from the truth. Christians achieve salvation by accepting Christ as our savior, not through works. If someone is going to write a book on a subject as this one, he ought to be more familiar with the core beliefs of other religions.....
