In this engaging audio program, the spiritual insights and genius of Leonardo da Vinci make for a lively dialogue between Michael J. Gelb and Deepak Chopra, M.D.Chopra and Gelb discuss da Vinci's achievements as a great scientist, mathematician, artist, and magnificent seer; and Gelb presents seven principles that enable us to "think like Leonardo": (1) have an insatiable curiosity for life and living; (2) learn from experience and mistakes; (3) nurture and refine sensory awareness; (4) embrace the uncertain and the unknown; (5) develop "whole-brain thinking"-a balance between logic and imagination; (6) accept responsibility for physical and mental health and well-being; and (7) recognize and appreciate the interconnectedness of all things.Chopra and Gelb conclude that we all have access to the intuitive, creative, and visionary responses that da Vinci did, but there is no doubt, as Chopra says, that Leonardo was "an accelerated expression of the natural evolution of consciousness."
