By Serge Demetrian. 2005

Bharata, les Kaurava et les Pandava, pour le trône de la dynastie lunaire. Les seconds sont aidés par Krishna, incarnation de Vishnu, qui énoncera juste avant l'ultime bataille la Bhagavad Gîta, pierre angulaire de la spiritualité indienne. Dans cette Iliade indienne où les démons affrontent des armes divines, les thèmes de la vie et de la mort, de la vertu et du destin, de la force et du droit sont traités sous l'angle narratif. Serge Demetrian, qui connaît parfaitement les différentes versions du texte original, a vécu plus de vingt-six ans en Inde. S'inspirant des conteurs traditionnels de l'Inde du Sud, il nous offre une version inédite du Mahâbhârata, qui nous transporte au coeur de l'âme indienne.Du bon usage de la vie et de la mort

puissants de ce monde comme les individus les plus démunis, porte sur la vie et son terme un regard qui n’est plus seulement celui du praticien, mais celui d’un acteur et d’un témoin de son siècle, d’un homme de caractère et de foi. Une préfiguration récente de sa propre mort l’a conduit à rassembler ici, avec le recul et la rigueur que confère le fait d’être “revenu de loin”, ces méditations et confidences sur quelques thèmes-clés qui façonnent notre destin. Ni mémoires ni maximes, plutôt la réflexion d’un homme exceptionnel au moment où il embrasse du regard l’essentiel de sa vie, de ce qu’il croit devoir en retenir et en léguer.Croire: choisir l'expérience spirituelle

en tous genres de l'autre - notre conception de Dieu, quelles que soient nos convictions et nos croyances, nous écarte de toute expérience spirituelle. Or selon Deepak Chopra " la question n'est pas de savoir comment penser à Dieu, mais comment en faire l'expérience directement ". Au-delà des controverses, des dogmes et du scepticisme scientifique, Deepak Chopra nous propose de nous connecter à notre dimension spirituelle, cette ressource inaliénable de chaque être humain. Inspiré par les grandes traditions de sagesse et dans le respect des croyances individuelles, Deepak Chopra nous invite à croire, à rencontrer un Dieu non plus modelé à notre image ni à celui des fanatismes de tous bords, mais source de toutes choses et en harmonie avec la conception de l'univers. 2016.In search of wisdom: a monk, a philosopher and a psychiatrist on what matters most
