I was surprised to find Deepak Chopra’s book SynchroDestiny out of print just two years after publication. In some ways it shows the difficulty of selling books on spirituality, however excellent. It may also confirm my own belief that writing too many books devalues an author’s “brand”.

Nevertheless, this is a really worthwhile piece of work on a difficult subject : “nonlocal” intelligence. The subtitle, “Harnessing the infinite power of coincidence to create miracles”, was probably written by the marketing department rather than Chopra himself. It very nearly put me off, and I’m an aficionado of this type of book.

There are two facets to his thesis : synchrodestiny, a state of infinite potential, and nonlocal mind, or the virtual domain, which is co-terminous with God, and other names expressive of the same.

Interestingly, at least for me, the two concepts make a good fit with the two cornerstones of my forthcoming book, COSMOSITY. They are similar to what I call Cosmosity ~ near enough the state of enlightenment beyond time and space; and Nirvanoception, the way we enter Nirvanic experience. Chopra’s effortless grasp of these concepts suggests someone who has experienced the state in full measure (see previous post : Nirvana and Nirvanic Experiences).

The second part of the book presents a programme of practise and activity for attaining synchrodestiny and knowledge of nonlocal intelligence. A very worthy exposition.

Despite being out of print, some used copies of SynchroDestiny are still available at Amazon. Check out the latest situation. Otherwise, you might try a library stack.
