Chinmayee N. knows what it’s like to border two worlds: she is an entrepreneur and a finance professional, but also a practitioner of Kriya yoga. Since her youth, she has speculated on the question of what people really want out of life, and how modern trends in science and Communications have altered our search for a pathway through life and whether we are truly attempting to live, and not just stay alive; the result of that study is Elixir of the Ages.
Your debut book, “Elixir of the Ages”, was published recently. To begin with, could you tell those who don’t know much about the book?
Elixir of the Ages is not your typical inner sphere epiphany book. Avoiding the usual platitudes and clichés of inner sphere epiphany books about healing and enlightenment, it focuses instead on the areas where Eastern philosophy and Western science interact. Elixir of the Ages will distill two traditions that are often thought to be in opposition into a worldview that is in fact highly complementary and can reach across cultures and experiences to create a new pathway to understanding. Through a deep exploration of themes of identity, possibility, and persistence and transformation, Elixir of the Ages creates an unforgettable synthesis of the best of philosophy and metaphysics with the latest discoveries in neuroscience and behavioral studies.
