  • Deepak Chopra, a great Guru and guide to live better

    I call Deepak Chopra a Guru because he is a teacher , a master and guru means master or teacher. He is a teacher/guru of healthy life. He is guru because he combines spiritualism with his other approaches.

    His contributions in popularizing the ancient relaxation practices, transcendental meditation, spiritual solutions,spiritual healing practices,enlightenment, consciousness, holistic health, alternative medicine etc are laudable.

    Chopra has written more than 75 books, including 21 New York Times bestsellers. His books have been translated into 35 languages and sold more than 20 million copies worldwide.

    Chopra is a controversial figure. According to a 2008 article in Time magazine, he is "a magnet for criticism", primarily from those involved in science and medicine. His critics accuse him of creating a false sense of hope in sick individuals which may keep them away from effective medical care.

    Tompkins, Ptolemy (November 14, 2008). "New Age Supersage". time.com. Retrieved December, 2012. "Ever since his early days as an advocate of alternative healing and nutrition, Chopra has been a magnet for criticism"

    His too much focus on mind is also not liked by people like me who follow Osho who was more for mindlessness or No -Mind.

    Let us discuss this very popular but controversial figure.

    Deepak Chopra is a charlatan

    watch him getting humiliated by Atheists and Agnostics; he's not competent in dealing against them.

          What I posted below is exactly why it is important to understand the correct meanings of words.

          There are certain other members here who use words like "Obscurantism" and have no a clue of what it means and they attach it to things incorrectly. Deepak Chopra does the same thing here and it demonstrates ignorance and not wisdom. Osho also did this and this is why people like Deepak, Osho and so on are just cheats who bedazzle their followers with rhetoric but no merit.

            Deepak Chopra is not that deep as Osho is but his contributions in fields of health, success, relationships and spirituality cannot be ignored. He is author of so many books including many best sellers whose millions of copies are sold worldwide and translated in many languages mean he has some merit.

            If you have a chance then please do read his current best-seller, Reinventing the Body, Resurrecting the Soul, and The Ultimate Happiness Prescription which you will find great.

            He might be not that qualified to defend theism but his practical advices in day today matters are useful. I like when he combines the body-mind-soul relationship for a happier life.

              I truly wish the other more intelligent members of this forum who're not just another accounts would participate in such threads so then I could learn something.
