The Book of Secrets

Written on November 16th, 2008

I've started reading this book.. it's my second time around, and it's making much more sense to me this time.  The first time through I had no background of eastern philosophy, so it came as quite an awakening.  Since then I've done some reading and had a lot of discussions with friends online around these concepts, and I've experienced a lot of changes in perception.  I think that's what it is mainly about.. viewing the self and the world around us from a whole new perspective.

If anyone has read the book, or is reading it and would like to discuss any part of it, I would love that.  I think it helps a lot to get other view points and learn from others experiences.

      Wonderful! I worked with some of the teachings from the book, then moved to buddhist and some Hindu teachings, and then revisited the book. I also started a meditation practice. Another favorite Chopra book of mine is "The Way of the Wizard". Happy journeying!

    Welcome, angslo! I'll look forward to hearing more from you. Following the insights in this book is what really started me off on the path. You might be interested in another story and discussion I started, that really stemmed from following the insights gained from this book, and led me on to further studies and teachers and teachings:

    Hi hotshot :) He was here in the city I live giving a talk not long ago, but unfortunately I wasn't able to go.. I would love to hear him speak. I recently rented a dvd of his: 'The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success' which I really enjoyed. Also, we rented the movie 'The Love Guru' (Mike Myers) on the weekend, and he is mentioned at least a dozen times in the movie, and actually makes a chameo appearance.. the movie is of course goofy, but funny and enjoyable. So he's out there :)



    The name of the book is "The Book of Secrets". I have a couple more of his books that I haven't got around to reading just yet. Any time you'd like to discuss any of these ideas, I'm here.
