## Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Deepak Chopra joins forces with leading physicist Menas Kafatos to explore some of the most important and baffling questions about our place in the world. "A riveting and absolutely fascinating adventure that will blow your mind wide open!" —Dr. Rudolph E. Tanzi What happens when modern science reaches a crucial turning point that challenges everything we know about reality? In this brilliant, timely, and practical work, Chopra and Kafatos tell us that we've reached just such a point. In the coming era, the universe will be completely redefined as a "human universe" radically unlike the cold, empty void where human life is barely a speck in the cosmos. You Are the Universe literally means what it says--each of us is a co-creator of reality extending to the vastest reaches of time and space. This seemingly impossible proposition follows from the current state of science, where outside the public eye, some key mysteries cannot be solved, even though they are the very issues that define reality itself: • What Came Before the Big Bang? • Why Does the Universe Fit Together So Perfectly? • Where Did Time Come From? • What Is the Universe Made Of? • Is the Quantum World Linked to Everyday Life? • Do We Live in a Conscious Universe? • How Did Life First Begin? “The shift into a new paradigm is happening,” the authors write. “The answers offered in this book are not our invention or eccentric flights of fancy. All of us live in a participatory universe. Once you decide that you want to participate fully with mind, body, and soul, the paradigm shift becomes personal. The reality you inhabit will be yours either to embrace or to change.” What these two great minds offer is a bold, new understanding of who we are and how we can transform the world for the better while reaching our greatest potential.

Review: A fantastic book for anyone interested in both science and Eastern Philosophy. - If you have a passion for science, cosmology and Eastern Philosophy this is a must read book. This 276 page hardcover volume (You are the Universe: Discovering your cosmic self and why it matters by Deepak Chopra and Menas Kafatos) explores the many mysteries of the universe and how it relates to our place in the cosmos. This book attempts to unite the scientific facts and positions with the mysticism, spiritualism, and mysteries of humankind. Though I found this treatise both interesting and thought provoking; nevertheless, I am not sure it has proved its case enough to be accepted by traditional hard science. Since many of the issues brought out in this book may not be resolved with our present knowledge and experience, we may have to face the fact that we may never have the answers to all the mysteries of the cosmos. Indeed, we may have to realize our own intellectual limitations. This book is organized into two parts. Part one (The ultimate mysteries) explores what came before the Big bang, How does the Universe fit together so perfectly, where did time come from, what is the universe made of, is there design in the universe, is the Quantum world linked to everyday life, do we live in a Conscious Universe, how did life first begin and does the brain create the mind. The second part (Embracing your cosmic self) explains the power of personal reality, where you really came from, and home free. The appendix sections are also very important to read in this book. In conclusion, this is the kind of book that will force you to think more deeply on the many mysteries and questions concerning the universe and humankinds place in the Cosmos. Rating: 5 Stars.

Review: Stephen Hawkins needs to change his book from "The Theory of Everything" to "You Are Everything!" - Awesome book and despite the subject matter being complex at times, the authors did a great job relating hard to understand scientific concepts with real life analogies. The greatest sages and prophets throughout time have espoused the same things but did not have the science to go along with their teachings. As stated in the headline, Stephen Hawkins needs to change his book from "The Theory of Everything" to "You Are Everything." If we humans had the capability to see the smallest subatomic particles, when we looked at trees, houses, other humans,...everything would look the same. You wouldn't see an outline of a human, the inside of the human, or things outside the human. The "inside" of the body would look just like the "outside" of the body. There would not be a location for "me or I." There would be no inside/outside concept. The sun, trees, plants,... are just as important to us as any organs "inside" our bodies. I read a one star review for this book that related it to the same snake oil Deepak has been preaching for 40 years. My question, how did snake oil work? How does the placebo work? Where is the mathematical equation for the effect of the mind on the cells in the body? And if the mind can effect cells that are inside the body why wouldn't it have the same effect on things "outside" the body? Thank God (as the expression goes or in this case the Universe) that we do have the observer effect in quantum mechanics. Maybe the greatest breakthrough in science - along with this book!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Thought-Provoking Journey into Cosmic Consciousness
*by S***N on May 12, 2024*

One of the things I appreciate most about this book is its optimistic message. By exploring the interconnectedness of all things, Chopra and Kafatos offer a vision of the universe that is both awe-inspiring and empowering. They remind us that we are not separate from the universe but rather integral parts of its ongoing evolution.
