Could the actual purpose of the brain be to serve as a receiver? A magnificent connection to the great universe and to God himself? Could the brain be nothing less than a glorious passageway between heaven and earth? Dr. G. Malek Hedayat believes that if our brains were merely intended for thought, memory and body function it would be a cosmic case of gross overkill--like using a jet engine to power a washing machine. In his book A New Paradigm of the Soul, The Multiplication Table of the Universe, Dr. Hedayat says, "We are our brain. And that magnificient brain is the gift while our bodies are merely the gift wrapping." Our brain, he believes, is a wondrously capable hard-drive that can unlock a treasure trove of information, ideas, solutions and guidance which originates from what the author calls the Forcefield of the Soul. A New Paradigm of the Soul treats us to a perspective that will awaken us to the immensity of creation, its truly magical nature, its boundless resourcefulness and its endless generosity. Dr. Hedayat, a cardiologist, brings together the great religious philosophies of East and West with a clarity, a new vision and a glorious hope for eternal life beyond physical death. His book treats the reader to the energy, idealism and exuberance of a true seeker who takes profound joy in his God and the universe that He made.
