Deepak Chopra
Dear Reader,
A great surprise awaited me when I began writing the story of MUHAMMAD, the last prophet to emerge from the desert landscape that also produced Moses and Jesus. He described himself as "a man among men," an ordinary merchant of Mecca who was visited by the angel Gabriel. After that visit, his entire life was transformed.
In his lifetime Muhammad met with skepticism, opposition, and violence. Becoming the Prophet didn't make life easier but much harder and more confusing. What do you do when god chooses you out of all mankind? That question fascinated me, and I tried to write Muhammad's story from the perspective of a dozen people family, friends, devotees, enemies to give as many angles as possible on such an extraordinary life.
