Product Description
Happiness is something everyone desires. Yet how to find happiness–or even if we deserve to–remains a mystery. Still more mysterious is the secret to a lasting happiness that cannot be taken away. In The Ultimate Happiness Prescription, bestselling author Deepak Chopra shows us seven keys to uncover the true secrets of joy in the most difficult times.

The goal of life is the expansion of happiness, he contends. But in today’s demanding world, that goal seems elusive, if not impossibly out of reach. Society reinforces the belief that fulfillment comes from achieving success, wealth, and good relationships. Yet Chopra tells us that the opposite is true: all success in life is the by-product of happiness, not the cause.

So what is the cause? The Ultimate Happiness Prescription shares spiritual principles for a life based on a sense of your “true self” lying beyond the ebb and flow of daily living. Simple daily exercises lead to eliminating the root causes of unhappiness and letting a deeper level of bliss unfold.

After all avenues to happiness have been explored and exhausted, only one path is left: the journey to enlightenment. In The Ultimate Happiness Prescription, the daunting and exotic challenge of finding enlightenment becomes accessible step by step. We are taken on an inspiring journey to the true self, the only place untouched by trouble and misfortune.

On the way we learn the secrets for living mindfully and with effortless spontaneity. Now happiness is no longer hostage to external events but an experience we carry with us always. As Chopra inspiringly concludes, “Everything we fear in the world and want to change can be transformed through happiness, the simplest desire we have, and also the most profound.”

3 out of 5 stars Good read   March 1, 2010
Ravindran G. Gangadharan (New York, USA)
Spirituality and Enlightement are difficult subjects to write about and Deepak's 50 odd books, essentially contain the same message - how do you make Happiness Permanent? If you are avid Chopra fan, you will enjoy the book - but the fact remains that if you take any of one of his books seriously and make Enlightenment the goal of your life - you might end up saving money.


5 out of 5 stars Enjoyed spending time with this book   February 15, 2010
Patsy J. Brodka (Pennsylvania)
As always, this author presents a book full of ways to help the reader on their journey toward enlightenment, "soul improvement".

Happiness, so complicated yet so simple to experience. Beautiful book!



5 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Happiness Prescription   February 14, 2010
Sharon L. House (Porterville, Ca. USA)
As with all of Dr. Chopra's books, it is a very inspiring read. Lots of info for becoming a more centered and happier person, with many reason's why you should give up your negative thinking and live the happy life you deserve.


5 out of 5 stars New age and general collections will find his an ongoing, popular pick   February 11, 2010
Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA)
The Ultimate Happiness Prescription is read by Chopra himself and provides a fine set of seven keys to uncover true joy even in hard times. The goal of life is the expansion of happiness - but often that goal seems impossible, with society maintaining other values such as wealth and good relationships supersede this one. Chopra indicates all life success is due the by-product of basic happiness, not the cause - and his steps can unfold this. New age and general collections will find his an ongoing, popular pick.

I was a little disappointed in this book, because I found it too deep (if you will). It did not keep my interest and I ended up never finishing it. I had seen the author on the Bonnie Hunt Show and liked what he said, but did not get the same feeling while reading the book.
