Assuring readers that "finding the hidden dimensions in yourself is
the only way to fulfill your deepest hunger," bestselling author Chopra
shares 15 spiritual secrets for enlightenment. These secrets may sound
easy."the world is in you," "what you seek,you already are," "freedom
tames the mind".but Chopra offers sophisticated thought to challenge
a reader's spiritual status quo. Blending science and spirituality,
he shows how the mystery of life can be illustrated by the wisdom and
workings of one's body, as "every secret in this book goes back to the
existence of an invisible intelligence that operates beneath the visible
surface of life." The most important secret is transcending one's
egocentric viewpoint and accepting a single, unified reality: "you are
not in the world; the world is in you." Each well-written chapter offers
a vibrant discussion of these distilled principles, including exercises
to help readers apply these secrets to their lives. For example, Chopra
focuses a chapter on how death makes life possible: "Only by facing death
can you develop real passion for being alive." Chopra recasts death as
a way to "imagine yourself into a new form with a new location in space
and time." To do this, he suggests exfoliating one's self-image by
imagining oneself at various stages of life, past and future: "When you
see every earthly vestige of yourself vanish," he concludes, "you realize
you will never succeed in extinguishing yourself." This isn't easy
enlightenment. Chopra pushes his readers to do hard spiritual work in
this thoughtful and thought-provoking book.
