The service by the lady in Montana was excellent as was the condition of the book.
Every page of this book strikes a cord in the heart, resonating somewhere deep within and reminds us that, even though we play competitive daily games to often survive or simply to entertain us, there is an Infinite Game that, when acknowledged, leads us to our hearts, helps us to excel, and bonds us with the rest of humanity's desire to understand and express what it means to be truly human. What a fabulous book Deepak Chopra has written.I purchased this book to open my father up to the possibility that there is more to life than what are senses can inform us. I can't wait to talk to him when he get's back and play golf together when the spring comes.I love him.Thank you Deepak Chopra I seriously recommend this book to anyone and I know that my father will be better off after having read it. He is a world famous chemist, and appropriately, a pretty fine golfer, yet he has little faith in the Unseen forces that many of the saints declare to actually exist. Currently, he is reading this book as he vacations in Mexico, and I trust that it will candidly open his heart up to a new perspective on life and the exciting possibility of higher yet experiencial states of consciousness which are our birthright to acknowledge and experience in our daily lives.
But I wish he hadn't felt it necessary to wrap his counsel in the gauze of the ridiculous fairy tale of Adam and Leela, which fluffs his brief teaching up to book-length. All that is timeless, supremely useful, and clear when Chopra writes from the first-person, in his introduction and chapter summaries. Perhaps some people learn better this way, but such contrived dream sequences as these bring only confusion to my mind, as well as evoking the scorn that hard-headed realists feel for all things "New Age." Dr. Chopra offers good advice for the "feel" aspect of golf -- getting out of the head and into the moment, turning down the interior noise, breathing deeply, swinging with a conviction based on interior knowledge rather than exterior sight.
Amazing how Deepak can tie improving your golf game to the challenge of improving your life. Who's guess that Deepak could hit a hole-n-one on Golf. especially the audio version. I highly recommend but then I haven't found anything from Deepak Chopra that I don't find of excellent value.Try it, you'll not be disappointed. A+ listen as an Audion CD or download. This is excellent book to kill time on a long drive or to listen to in the background as you work on the computer.
I'm convinced now because after utilizing "The Ultimate Golf Instruction Guide" now I not only score below 90( which I never have done before in my golfing career) but now I actually broke 80. In addition, I found Patrick Leonardi's book titled:"The Ultimate Golf Instruction Guide: Key Techniques for Becoming a Zero Handicap Golfer or Better" one of the greatest books I've read on golf instruction. At first I was skeptical about this book after hearing from my friends how much this book helped them lower their scores. I think this is a good book on golf on the mental side. Well worth the time to learn these techniques and it's way better than taking golf lessons. With the proper technique, the effective golf swing will not disappear. However, I don't agree with that a golf swing just disappears. I also like the book he had written many years ago called Creative Visualization--great mental imagery.
