God: A Story of Revelation
Deepak Chopra, the spiritual sage, has exhibited immense ambition&#8230;His attempt to explain God makes my bones shiver. His success in defining that life-long mystery brings tears to my eyes and humbles me in gratitude. He has probed through the ages in order to write a book for the ages. (Maya Angelou)&#8220;Deepak Chopra has successfully blended ancient Vedanta Philosophy with his unique perspective on modern science to provide a vast audience with solutions that meet many needs for our modern age.&#8221; (Huston Smith, author ofThe World's Religions)&#8220;The line is usually drawn from God to revelation but by drawing it from revelation to God in this astonishing book, Deepak achieves two startling results.&#8221; (Arvind Sharma, Birks Professor of Comparative Religion, McGill University)&#8220;Spiritual traditions manifest themselves most clearly in the living human beings who embody them. In this highly readable volume Deepak Chopra has told the engaging stories of a dozen of these exemplary figures. The result is both inspiring and richly enjoyable.&#8221; (Harvey Cox, author ofThe Future of Faith)&#8220;Through his compelling fictionalization, Deepak Chopra offers an intriguing exposition of the evolution of human theological thought. He should have called the book &#8216;A Brief History of God&#8217;!&#8221; (Leonard Mlodinow, co-author (with Stephen Hawking) ofThe Grand DesignandA Briefer History of Time)Blending fictional accounts of ten extraordinary people in history he respects with commentary on their lives and works, Chopra has created a medium for us to ponder the evolution of God.
