NEWS FLASH - My Book Released!

Deepak Chopra is a famed physician and philosopher born in India and currently living in North America. He’s an adamant voice against wars, any violence, and believes firmly that the mind holds undiscovered healing powers that can easily prolong life, improve health, and even work to control the universe around you.

To many, Chopra is a guru and a prophetic figure. To others, his teachings are regurgitated ramblings of self-proclaimed gurus past. In his book Ageless Body, Timeless Mind, Chopra illustrates his beliefs in a fun, well-written manner. Although the book has its critics, it was number-one on the New York Times bestseller list and continues to sell well across the globe.

Those who have read Chopra’s work know that he doesn’t simply latch on to words of those past. Instead, he uses science to explore the more mystical side of life. By examining modern quantum physics, Deepak then blends the science with ancient wisdom, and in Ageless Body, Timeless Mind, he uses this melding to illustrate how humans are preprogrammed to think that they’ll all grow old and die.

In the book, Chopra doesn’t challenge death’s place in life. He doesn’t attempt to defeat it. Instead, he offers up a theory that people are not doomed to decline before death. Accepted wisdom is that with age comes a host of ailments. The older one gets, the sicker they get; they experience loss of functions, take on an “ugly” appearance, and die as shells of their former selves. Ageless Body, Timeless Mind deals with living a very long and very healthy life – he suggests that this is the true birthright and destiny of all people.

Chopra does his best to explain how a person’s body is just another form of energy that resides in a universe full of nothing but energy. Instead of walking that same line to an inevitable end, the book explains how energy is not set in stone, and while it’s all the same, it’s still all separate and doesn’t have to follow the logical lines. Deepak compares our bodies to a river: appearing to be the same, but constantly undergoing change.

Ageless Body, Timeless Mind challenges people to harness the power of their mind to ward off aging. It’s a scientific fact that, every year, 99% of all the body’s cells are replaced with new ones. This means that we basically have a new body every year. Deepak explains that an aging appearance has nothing to do with time; it has to do with a person who is preprogrammed to feel as if they’re growing old.

The book is meant to be a motivational piece. It implores people to think beyond what they know and always feel young at heart. If it’s any sign that his theory is actually true, Deepak Chopra is in his 60s and doesn’t look a day over 35 – in the relative sense. Chopra teaches that keeping a timeless mind will help to create an ageless body. He states that it is up to the individual to age how they want to age.
