"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 1 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.
"The most important book about God for our times. . . . This book is a magical stairway to ascend to a life-changing experience of the sacred."
-ROBERT THURMAN, PH.D., PROFESSOR OF RELIGION, COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY
