Book Reviews of Life After Death: The Burden of Proof
Book Review: Understanding Death
Summary: 5 Stars
Science has not been able to tell us much except we seem to cease to exist once we die. Why is it that man and woman alike crave something more after the flesh gives out? I find Deepak Chopra books intriguing and I want to believe there is something more. Our traditional Jew, Christian beliefs here in the USA makes it so hard to feel that way if we don't quite believe in the bible. We're taught we must believe in God as he is shown us in the bible or we lose life everlasting, but to thinking people this just seems bogus that have to accept just one way of viewing God or the Divine.
I loved the book, and I love the ideas and presentations of the Author. I will continue my quest for understanding the divine in a new way. Thanks to Mr. Chopra for continuing to challenge our western way of viewing the world.

Book Review: I'm not sure what this is about but I really Like the book
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm almost done with Life After Death and I'm still not sure where Dr. Chopra is going. Having said that, I love this book. It is a casual walk through basic beliefs of Hinduism, Quantum physics, Morality, and Ethics with a bit of New Age thrown in.
The writing style makes it VERY easy to read and there have been at least a dozen concepts I have never thought of (and I've read about almost every subject on the planet). I was blown away with the alternative view of how savants work and how they are capable of performing such mental feats. That view makes so much sense.
I HIGHLY recommend reading this book. I can't say it is the best on Hinduism or the best at New Age or the Best at Quantum Mechanics. Heck I can't even really say what it is about. But I know this. It is one of the best books I've read.
Book Review: Relieving a little of the death experience fear with metaphysical explanations.
Summary: 4 Stars
The subject of death or crossing over into the next phase of existence is not only a mystery and a bit frightening to most people but as a person approaches old age it tends to get worse.
Deepak Chopra not only has the ability to enlighten a persons fear of the subject but he sets the reader at ease and explains the possibilities to the mysteries of this crossing over.
If a person hasn't read any metaphysical writings or doesn't have an open mind, he/she might find this book a little deep or hard to understand or grasp.
Many people are so indoctrinated by the church they belong to that they wouldn't ever think of reading a book like this. I believe a book like this is for everyone but only open minded people will read it or grasp the fine words within it's pages.
This book is a great one.

Book Review: Chopra ROCKS!
Summary: 5 Stars
Okay, maybe "rocks" was a little off base, but DeePak is such a gift to the modern day world. He is decades, if not lightyears ahead of the pack. DeePak Chopra writes, Life After Death:The Burden of Proof with the balance of eastern and western philosophies. I've just completed this great book and it is now at the head of my long list of books about life after death. DeePak Chopra is a gift to this generation; what would life be if we did not have his gifted and poignant views? If you have ever pondered the possibilities of life after death, of where your energy goes when the body is cold, and even if the thoughts have never crossed your mind, get this compelling book. It answers as many questions as it asks. Blessings in the MireBook Review: Excellent Science and Philosophy
Summary: 5 Stars
I recommend skipping right to chapter 12 for some of the excellent far reaching science and philosophy today. I appreciate his presentation of ancient eastern philosophy and mix it with the ancient Greek philosophers. I not only read these chapters often, but I also make audio notes to review while driving in the car. He reaches into areas that are possibilities and he will tell you that, not like religion who says "it is the word of God!"
The first few chapters use parable-type techniques like scripture, designed to teach us, but I would rather he jump right to the hard core philosophy and science. I will summarize these chapters for myself eliminating the "story telling" and just list the solid core information these chapters intend to teach us.
