Chopra turns to the most profound mystery: what happens after we die? Is this one question we were not meant to answer, a riddle whose solution the universe keeps to itself? Chopra tells us there is abundant evidence that "the world beyond" is not separated from this world by an impassable wall; in fact, a single reality embraces all worlds, all times and places. At the end of our lives we "cross over" into a new phase of the same soul journey we are on right this minute. Chopra draws on cutting-edge scientific discoveries and the great wisdom traditions to provide a map of the afterlife. It's a journey into many levels of consciousness. But more important is his urgent message: Who you meet in the afterlife and what you experience there reflect your present beliefs, expectations, and level of awareness. Here and now, you shape what happens after you die.--From publisher description.… (altro)

A book that was a bit like smoke, really. It affected me as I was reading it, But as soon as I had finished it, I couldn't remember what had affected me about it. Perhaps it was too warm and comforting for its own good. ( )

This book is a fascinating introduction to Eastern thought on the afterlife. Chopra also incorporates theories of modern physics and biology that support Hindu traditions about what happens when we die. It's a far more interesting landscape than Western ideas of heaven and hell. I hope to learn more about Hinduism after reading this book. I had a hard time putting this one down. ( )

Starred Review. In India death is perceived very differently than in the West, "as a brief stopping point on an endless soul journey," says Chopra in this introduction to life beyond bodily existence. Chopra, a medical doctor and world leader in mind-body medicine as well as author of more than 45 books, now ventures to answer: what happens after we die? For Chopra, death deserves to be called miraculous, a "doorway to a far more important event—the beginning of the afterlife" and a mode of being that "can be as creative as living." Chopra effectively uses the classic Vedanta story of Savitri—a woman who comes home to find death, Lord Yama, waiting to take her husband, and who seeks the monk Ramana's advice to outwit death—to frame each chapter. Chopra grounds each topic in the long arc of this singular story, which is the perfect springboard for Chopra to introduce concepts such as Akasha (the highest stage a soul can attain) and Eternity within the Indian tradition (where we are beyond death, life, maleness, femaleness, and the experience of time). Chopra presents a fascinating account of life after death for Westerners
