People are surprised and often offended to discover that the truth is shifting, and yet a shift always happens at the moment of greatest certainty. If you canvassed a hundred neuroscientists about where the mind comes from, it would be a good bet that 99 would say the brain. There’s a solid wall of certainty there, which would automatically indicate that a new answer is ready to emerge, toppling all conventional wisdom. (more…)

Out of Body Experiences
Can you please help me with a long unanswered question? Today I watched yet another show on Near Death Experience where several people momentarily died and they had an out of body experience. I too have had this same experience of feeling the spirit leave the body, looking down on yourself as you float towards the light, etc., but I have never died. In fact. as far back as I can remember, it has been a daily part of my life. It wasn’t until I was 17 and I happened upon a science show, that I learned of the term “out of body”, and it was then that I realized I was different and it scared me. It then took me another 10 years to stop it, but I feel like I lost something with it. Have you heard of this before, is it normal, and can you help me understand it? Your advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Path to Love Exercises
10 years ago I did the first exercise from the book “The Path to Love”. It worked as You explained, all the things came true. I began the second one during that time, yet, I felt intense pain in the region of the chest. Such a pain I did not feel in my life. After that experience I dropped the exercises. Now I am 32 and decided that it is time to get back on that journey once again. I did the first exercise, however, I find difficulty with the second one. Another thing has happened also from an year. Where the third eye is found there is pulse like sensation. Every day from time to time it happens, it is a soothing feeling and sometimes it feels like I am going to fall asleep. Then it stops until the next day. Ten years ago, I experienced an awakening moment of realization. It continued for three days, it was the most profound experience of my life up to now. I know that it will occur again and this time it will be forever. Until then I have some questions if You can assist me with. Question 1 is regarding an advice about the second exercise “Paying attention to the heart”? Question 2: About the pulse between my eyebrows (third eye), is that some kind of psychic experience? Question 3: Would You suggest any techniques in “opening” the third eye? Thank You for Your time and assistance.
War of the Worldviews: A statement on science and spirituality – by Deepak Chopra and Leonard Mlodinow
As we travel around the country promoting our new book, War of the Worldviews: Science vs. Spirituality, people are asking about the major points of contention between science (the worldview represented by Leonard Mlodinow)
and spirituality (the worldview represented by Deepak Chopra). Do we always disagree or are there some points of agreement? We thought it would be appropriate to summarize the major differences and agreements in a short note.
Our book has four major sections: Cosmos, Life, Mind and Brain, and God. (more…)
