Publisher's summary

Welcome on a behind-the-scenes tour of creation, an experience that will change forever the way you understand reality.

Discover a world:

  • Where the mind can physically change your body.
  • Where your entire body thinks, not just your brain.
  • Where matter exists only as a swirling pattern of information.
  • Where you actively create your own reality.

Dr. Deepak Chopra is your guide on this amazing adventure through the realm of your own spirituality and the science of the 21st Century. You will learn how modern science has rejected the notion of a reality we can see, hear, taste and touch... how physical matter isn't really solid at all... that reality changes with the viewpoint of the observer... that, in fact, reality is more like a viewpoint than a thing.

The spiritual needs we all have for love, compassion, meaningfulness, total acceptance, devotion and inner peace are not grand goals to be achieved in a distant time and place. They exist here and now and exert powerful influences on our lives. Only be transcending to The Higher Self can you achieve total, spontaneous fulfillment of these needs.

In The Higher Self, Dr. Chopra teaches you how to:

  • Eliminate fear and other obstacles to spiritual growth.
  • Rejoin the stream of life through willingness and trust.
  • Utilize more fully the true solver of problems - intuition.
  • Untangle pain from suffering.
  • Liberate your emotional body.
  • Experience infinite worth.
  • Learn to heal as a conscious activity.
  • Establish a relationship with your personal and cosmic mind.
  • Break the circular trap of addictions and find new pleasures that surpass them.
  • Develop a quiet mind that can experience the truth of this new reality.

It's A Book, Not A Show

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

It's complicated. The music is very distracting, not to mention the woman who keeps appearing to say something. I hope this isn't going to be Chopra's new schtick to attract and keep people with ADD.

What did you like best about this story?

The content is interesting if you can get to it past the New Age music. It's like trying to read a Stephen Hawking book in a Marin County chiropractor's office.

How could the performance have been better?

STOP THE MUSIC!

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

It practically is a movie.

Any additional comments?

STOP THE MUSIC! Come on, you're dealing with metaphysics here. Do you think Hobbes or Heidegger gave lectures with a zither playing in the background?

Deepak Chopra is Brilliant

This book is applicable for those seeking an understanding from a Vedic and yogic point of view how to practice the realms of koshas and svadyaya self study from the higher self. Great metaphors for teachers to reuse as well. Such a pleasure to listen to this timeless wisdom. ♥️

Thought provoking

Listening to this book was inspiring. I need to listen again as it gets very deep. It helps you to understand the simplicity of staying in the present with desires and thoughts.

A Deep understanding of how we Conceive ourselves to be.

I have read and studied Deepak Chopra's books for sometime. The more I read, the more I want to know. He gives me Answers that I can't find anywhere else ! There is a mixture of the highly intelligent mind with the physical side and the Spiritual side that we all have, but only a few ever get this far to understand what we are capable of ! I am always hungry for More ! Shirley West

The Higher Self - (Our best friend )

Deepak rarely disappoints
Repetition of familiar themes YES but that is essential to seriously laying down new pathways in our mind if we desire growth
He has a unique ability to gather in a wide net of intelligence about our inner self and it's possibilities , thanks to his own background and medical training, curiosity about physics, psychology.,religions (varied) imetaphysics et al and the fluency and excellent speaking voice to convey it all in manageable fractions - he is the ultimate consummate guide to becoming more conscious I
