an exploration of the seven ways we experience God. These are shaped, not by any one religion, but by an instinct that is hardwired into the brain. In this remarkable book, Chopra takes us step by step from the first stage, where the brain’s ‘fight or flight’ response leads us to a God who is an all-powerful and sometimes unpredictable parent, to the seventh stage, where the brain experiences God as pure being, beyond thought, a sacred presence. It is at this seventh stage that we attain a true, life-changing spiritual understanding of the world and our place in it; it is the level at which saints and sages dwell. All seven stages are available to each of us, all the time. Deepak Chopra explores mysticism, religious ecstasy, genius, telepathy, multiple personality and clairvoyance, drawing insights from psychology, neurology and physics, as well as from the great religions. The result is vintage Chopra applied to the ultimate quest

Only Aya can read the signs that awaken the spirits of the underworld and save both worlds. But will she succeed before it is too late?!

In the midst of pain and darkness, keep a hopeful heart. Know that there is a way out. It is a way you may have never thought existed, but it does exist, and it exists in your core. Look deeply, take a long deep breath and find your realness. Sit in the stillness of your mind and hear your true Self speak out to you, hear it say, in the language of love, “You are not what is happening. You are not this pain and chaos; you are an eternal-invincible force that is designed to live triumphantly!”
