Book Overview

If it weren't for the enormous effort we put into denial, repression, and doubt, life would be a constant revelation. It takes thousands of choices to keep the book of secrets closed, but it only takes a single breakthrough to open it again. The locked door is inside you, and so is the key. The first step to finding it is acknowledging that no one is hiding any knowledge from us except ourselves. No one else knows the answers either. Book jacket.

Amazing book, great condition, missing pages

The content within is always amazing. I’m a huge fan of Deepak Chopra and his specific style of work. My only critique would be that the some of the initial pages in my book that was sent were missing. As an avid reader, I was disheartened. Perhaps the previous owner was unaware. Other than that, wonderful book and Chopra does not short-live any expectations.

My first Deepak Book!

Deepak Chopra was the foreword in a book a read in the past but this was officially my first book by him and it did not disappoint! You know that feeling when you start reading a book and you know it’s exactly what you’re supposed to be reading right now? A lot of synchronicities happened while reading this book, it was beautiful.

Came in brand new however I ripped it a little because of the stickers that were placed

Life changing

Deep Chopra

Part of me wants to dismiss Chopra as touchy-feely new-agey fluff, but I keep reading him because there are such profound resonant truths underneath everything he writes about. He goes a little off the uh, "deep," end now and again, but really, he does a fine job of relating ancient eastern principles in a very personal and understandable way. He's actually going over the same material with each new book, but to his credit, he finds so many different ways to relate it to the modern world, and to different mindsets -- each book is better than the last. I think of him as the Alan Watts of this era. There are a lot of "wow" moments in this one, and a very enjoyable journey. I've read through it several times already.

One of the Best Chopra books of all time.

This book was one I had to read twice and will likely read again. It is a powerful book with so many insights into life and what we should be tuned into. I was somewhat depressed when I started reading the book and it gave me hope. Sandy H

Deep enlightenment through embracing real life

A truly uplifting read, this is possibly the best book so far by the masterful intelligence of Deepak Chopra. The writing is of exceptional quality, his popular blend of scientific objectivity and poetic mysticism. It feels strongly as though the author was himself undergoing a major personal re-birth while writing "The Book Of Secrets". Each chapter is given to a "secret" such as "The Mystery Of Life Is Real", "The World Is In You", "What You Seek You Already Are", "Evil Is Not Your Enemy" and "The Meaning Of Life Is Everything". At the end of each chapter Deepak gives some exercises and suggestions as to how one might accommodate the secret just discussed. Many of these boil down to simple honest and open awareness of oneself and others, together with practical advice of one kind or another. For example, in chapter 6 the author helps free you up from the fear of making mistakes. Right and wrong decisions are mental constructs, there is bad in the good choices we have made and vice versa. On the cover Deepak asks three questions: "Who am I?", "Where did I come from?" and "Why am I here?". He answers them clearly and simply in the last chapter. A great book to help you WAKE UP!

A different way to look at death

Chopra writing of death says to "imagine yourself into a new form with a new location in space and time." Lewis in An Encounter with a Prophet instructs an adolescent to see his dead brother pursuing his favorite activity at a different location. These authors do not see death as a end but as a continuation of the life here. Interesting concepts.

Profound and Exciting

I'm a long-time reader of Dr. Chopra's books, but this one is truly unique. It pulls no punches, telling the whole story of how he sees spirit and the path to enlightenment. In the past Dr. Chopra has used a lot of pop metaphors to get his message across and has been lumped with motivational writers like Wayne Dyer and Tony Robbins, but in The Book of Secrets he is all spiritual, and for me that is really exciting. If you want to learn about everything from good and evil to life after death and the five illusions that create unreality, this is the book for you.
