Mr. Dee’Pak Chopra keeps on shedding light on God in us
Another wondelful teaching by our fellow master over the years yoga teacher. 52 seed mantras explained, along with ordered steps for using them prophetically. Only difference between us Christian, )ews, Hindus and him, He does not start off with One Name of our primary creator God Mantra, YHWH JESUS YHWH to pray to inside of us as an indwelling Holy Spirit. But, I repeat to what I told our previous incarnation of Lord Vishnu Shivananda Christ in 1984 I believe it was, Dear Self, Self inside of myself you are now saved.. please depend now on Word of YHWH God and Love of YHWH Christ indwelling for you success in life, you can depend on them wherever you are bound… headed in this our current life, Thanks for staying aI’ve so long to keep on praying together to help, serve,love meditate continue to realize our divine Self YHWH JESUS YHWH, thanks for this very helpful, wondelful teaching in this book. Thanks again

This book gives us what we need to change the world
If everyone lived the life that this book suggests we would no longer have any use for locks or anti depressants. IT'S POSSIBLE........WE CAN DO IT.

One of Deepak's best books! But it's not an introduction to meditation...
I've been a fan of Deepak Chopra for over twenty years. This could very well be one of the best books he's written in years. Total Meditation is intelligent, thoughtful, thought-provoking, and sublime. Readers should know, however, that this is not an introduction to meditation. If you're looking for something that includes guided meditations or techniques on how to quiet the chatter in your brain, then it would be best to check out one of the many excellent meditation apps on the market, like Calm or Headspace. This book is about taking meditation to the next level, where individuals can live at a higher state of consciousness, at a higher state of awareness of themselves and the world around them, all the time. Hence, the title Total Meditation. This is not easy, nor is it really difficult either. It takes commitment, it takes imagination, it takes being open to the peace that resides inside you. That can sometimes be hard to find, but what I love about this book is that Deepak assures us that we can change our reality, by thinking, perceiving, and living differently.This is a challenging read. No doubt about it. But I've been running Deepak's ideas in my head--and in my meditation practice--and I can feel something stirring inside me. I can't guarantee that the book will have the same effect on you, but I can say that I've noticed a change in myself.One more thing a reader should know is that the book is essentially broken into two sections/parts. The first is the philosophy behind Total Meditation and expands on Deepak's teaching on consciousness and the nature of reality. This part almost requires that you slow down to read it. I tried racing through the first couple of chapters and felt lost, but I stopped myself, put the book down for a bit, and then came back to it when I wasn't so scattered in my head. Those chapters were revelatory. And maybe that was the point. I had noticed something off inside me, I did what I had to do to center myself, and when I came back to something I thought was difficult, it all started to flow. Also, there are exercises to do along the way that reinforce Deepak's teaching, which I am finding helpful. The second part of the book includes practices to engage more fully in the concept of Total Meditation including a 52-week mantra program, which I'm very excited to begin.All in all, this book might not be for everyone, but I love Total Meditation and look forward to applying Deepak's practices in the days and weeks to come.

Very good read
I think this is the best instructional book I’ve read about meditation. More specificity than others I’ve read. Give it a read.

I thought the last book I read was the best until I read this one
Don't get me wrong. The last one was really great too but it had to do with a different topic.This is the first time I read something about meditation that just clicked to me. I was instantly able to see many things about myself and my life in a deeper level. It helped me want to make another big life decision in addition to the one I am transitioning to. This has to do with consciousness elevating me to abundance. I hope it does the same to you too.

Best meditation book ever
This is book is so simple and deep at the same time. It is wonderful how Deepak has the ability to make you understand how awareness is our natural state. You easley understand everything, he gives you simple techniques to practice and I think the most wonder thing is that you feel relieve when you understand that meditation is not as complicated as we have thought, conversely its the easiest thing and we can live in that state. Thanks to Deepak for writing this book with so much love

It is so wonderful!
The autor describes the secrets of human life in the simple way.What i wonder about is that the secret is available to all who desire to transcend the illusion of world.

Kinda small for a hard cover
A bit smaller than I'd have thought it would be for a hard cover. Especially for the price. If I'd known I'd have waited and gone to chapters.

Mantras and consciousness
Insights into consciousness is interesting and appealing if you like Sanskrit mantras

Buen libro...
A pesar de haber cometido un error de adquisición es un producto muy bueno y además muy bonito, para quienes dominen la lengua inglesa es grandioso.
