This recording shows why Deepak Chopra is considered one of the great pioneers in the field of mind-body medicine. Here he offers compelling answers to the eternal questions of identity, origin, and meaning. His premise is that people make the mistake of relying on their senses to define their experience of reality.
Recorded in 1992 prior to Chopra's rise to fame, this brief recording is an authoritative summary of his thinking on how the mind and physical senses conspire to create barriers to a more fulfilling life. These ideas will remain difficult for anyone whose grasp of quantum physics is marginal, especially Westerners who depend too much on logic and reason to understand their lives. Listeners familiar with quantum physics may find this lecture to be more poetic than instructive, more inspirational than informative. On balance, this quality actually makes it a nice departure for Dr. Chopra, given the large number of other recordings we now have from him that are more accessible. T.W.
