Chopra is an incisive and persuasive writer. Here, he takes as his subject the most profound mystery of all: how to know God. Chopra, a former doctor, uses anecdotal evidence along with scientific argument, exploring phenomena such as clairvoyance and telepathy as well as aspects of psychology and neurology. It's an interesting and stimulating read, and the authoritative tone does much to sweep the sceptical reader through. However, his premise - to examine God as an objective entity - is almost immediately belied by his stated search for God as subjective; as a component or state of the mind. 'We are trying to find the basic facts that will make God possible, real and useful,' he asserts, adding that 'God is as we are'. A 'useful' God seems an unattractive and rather pointless proposition, but Chopra does not pursue this line, choosing instead to focus on the brighter picture of the divine within - the limitless self.
