Books with author Deepak Chopra M.D.

A fifteen-year-old boy is walking through a swirling fog on his way to school when a voice calls out, ""Come here. We need to talk."" Out of the mist emerges an old man with a white beard. He is a fantastic figure, as wizardly as Merlin, as wise as Socrates, as peaceful as Buddha. Whoever he is, the old man has appeared on that very day to change the boy's life. ""You are old enough to learn about things,"" he says mysteriously. ""And who is going to teach you but me?"" The old man gives the boy four days of ""soul training,"" a time of riddles, tricks, parables, and incredible twists that brings out surprising answers to each of four burning questions about spirituality: Do I have a soul?How do wishes come true?What is the supreme force in the universe?How can I change the world?""The old man with the white beard showed me the spiritual side of life,"" writes Deepak Chopra, ""where real passion and excitement come from. So before you begin, take a deep breath. This story could turn out to be yours.""

Adults squirm when the big questions come up, especially the big spiritual ones. They don’t want their kids to worry, so they give answers that all say one thing: “Don’t worry. It’s all okay.”And yet the big questions still keep coming up. At every age we all need to know what life is really all about. Not just on the surface, but deep down.Teenagers are no exception. They deserve a spiritual life all their own. One that offers the kind of comfort we hope to give our children, but is different at the same time. More full of ideas. More mature. More fitting for the whole wide future that lies ahead.That’s what I’ve tried to do in this book, as fully and as honestly as possible.—Deepak Chopra
