| Chopra's
Hymn of Creation from the Rig
Veda |
|
| In the beginning
/ There was neither existence
nor non-existence, / All this
world was unmanifest energy...
/ The One breathed, without breath,
by Its own power / Nothing else
was there. |
|
| Ask yourself,
what is so remarkable about the
Hymn of Creation that makes any
sense to you? You may want to
work the hymn backward, not literally,
but in its contents, although
the net "spiritual" effect when
I read the hymn |
|
|
|
|
|
| backward was
roughly the same. Nothing else
was where? And
how was the concept that is the
basis of the hymn communicated,
and to whom? Some human (I suspect
a man and not a woman) wrote
the chant that claims to have "known" that "nothing" had
been there, where there was neither
here nor there.
Keep going, and you will find
Alice's wonderland quite believable. |
|
| |
| My Hymn of Creation from my Rigged Dooda |
|
| Before the beginning, it was all Energetic Foreplay.
In the beginning, there was an
Orgasm. |
| One ejaculated, the Other received, and You were
conceived. |
|
|
|
| There, isn't that more like what a hymn of creation should sound like? |

| Other Excerpts from Chapter 3 |
|
| Shame on you New York Times! |
|
| As noted earlier, the New
York Times applauded DC's caricature of thought titled The
Seven Spiritual Laws of Success. How could anyone at the New
York Times have compared Kahlil Gibran's writing to DC's, especially given the Global Network for Spiritual Success pseudo advert that appears at the very end of DC's book? Whether or not one enjoys Gibran's epic, The
Prophet, it is a work of sincere art, which its author nurtured through four years of anguish and failing health. Hence, nearly one hundred years since it first appeared, it remains one of the most popular gift items at any august occasion. |
|
| In contrast, in "giving" us his seven so-called spiritual laws,
with a pretentiousness that is despicable, DC writes in his pseudo
advert at the end of The Seven Laws that "I can wish you no greater
blessing." How dare a pseudo-moralistic businessman wish the reader
any blessing in light of the hypocrisy surrounding Choprasin and
its practices! Journalism must have austere standards. Shame on
you, New York Times! |
|
| Are Chopra's thoughts the same as God's Thoughts? He thinks they are! |
|
| You would have hoped that at this stage in spreading his i-crap, DC would come to a full stop. But no, he saves the worst for last. His "Summary and Conclusions" in The
Seven Laws starts with-guess what?-another quote, this one from Albert Einstein: "I want to know God's thoughts...the rest are details." |
|
| There's a pattern to DC's pathology even in his choice of quotes. In the first seven chapters, he starts with a metaphysical quote or a quote from a mystic poet. And in his conclusions, he links these to a quote from a physicist in an attempt to establish a modicum of scientific merit to his ramblings. With spectacular egotism, he concludes on page 108 by saying: "[The applications of the seven spiritual laws are] the genius of nature's intelligence. These are the thoughts of God-the rest are details." The dullest Choprasinner should be able to deduce the pompous insinuation in that quote. |
|
| Is Mr. Michael Beckwith JESUS 2.0? |
|
| In the pseudo advert at the end of The
Seven Laws, DC says he will send us a wallet-sized card summarizing his seven laws. His reason: to be able to reach a critical mass of people. Thus, he would like us to start a ritual that begins on a Sunday with the law of pure potentiality and ends with the law of dharma on a Saturday. The idea behind this rite is for the network of Choprasinners to discuss their experiences as they practice the seven Choprasin laws. To repeat DC's quote from the last chapter, "If the experiences are dramatic, which at times they will be, I invite you to write them down and mail them to me." The translation of this quote is translucent. Curiously, twenty-four-hour news channels are employing a similar ruse. With nothing worthwhile to report all day and night, CNN started I-Report wherein viewers send stories to the network. Most of these stories range from the absurd to the irrelevant. In the context of "dramatic experiences," Byrne quotes Michael Bernard Beckwith on page 134 of The
Secret: "I've seen kidneys regenerated. I've seen cancer dissolved. I've seen eyesight improve and come back." It seems like Beckwith is an elite Choprasinner with unique and unlimited access to some very sick people. Is Beckwith Jesus 2.0? This downgraded version apparently doesn't perform miracles; it merely reports them. |
