Pathways to God: A Dialogue between Joan Borysenko, PH.D., and Deepak Chopra, M.D.

FROM THE PUBLISHER

In this insightful dialogue between Joan Borysenko, Ph.D., and Deepak Chopra, M.D., Borysenko reveals the seven pathways to God that are characteristic of the modern mystic: Path 1: Involves the root chakra, which grounds us, and has to do with our relationship to the earth as a living being. Path 2: The inner union of male and female and what has to happen in order for energy to be generated and for life to continue. Path 3: The path-three mystic cultivates a type of meditation where humility is extremely important. Path 4: The way of the heart, exemplified by Mother Teresa-to give and receive love. Path 5: Involves discipline, ethics, and will-St. Paul is a good example. Path 6: Relates to the third eye, the place of very serious inquiry, insight, and contemplation. Path 7: The crown chakra is in play here-where people in the midst of the worst dark night of the soul remind us of the infallible workings of grace.
