"The wisdom of the East" is big business in America. There are probably more yoga studios in Santa Monica than in all of India. The problem is, the American way of yoga and meditation are out of sync with the real meaning of these practices. We're putting the cart before the horse. In traditional times, instruction in yoga and meditation came only after years of service with a guru or teacher. The real purpose of yoga and meditation is not just to execute difficult poses or get calmed down after a hard day. The purpose is to create awareness and connection with a system that includes every aspect of yourself -- and that system extends to encompass the whole world and even the infinite universe. This book will show how your body can be a laboratory for understanding the system that underlies it --- leading to an intimate understanding of ALL systems in the universe. Further, you'll learn to use that understanding as a gateway to grasping what physicists call "the theory of everything." And it's not just theory. It's practical information that will improve your life in mind, body, and spirit.

About the Author

Dr. V. A. Shiva Ayyadurai, the inventor of email and polymath, holds four degrees from MIT and is a world-renowned systems scientist. He is a Fulbright Scholar, Lemelson-MIT Awards Finalist, First Outstanding Scientist and Technologist of Indian Origin (STIO), Westinghouse National Science Talent Honors Award recipient, and U.S. National Medal of Technology and Innovation nominee. As a child, he was inspired by his grandmother’s practicing Siddha, India’s oldest system of traditional medicine, which led him to a major breakthrough: Systems Health, an integrative framework linking eastern and western medicine. His most recent invention, CytoSolve® is a technology that enables rapid discovery of multi-combination therapeutics without animal testing. In 1978, as a precocious 14-year-old, he was accepted to a special program in computer science at New York University. Later, at the University of Medicine and Dentistry, New Jersey (UMDNJ) as a Research Fellow, he developed the first electronic system to replicate the entire interoffice mail system (Inbox, Outbox, Folders, Address Book, Memo, etc.), which he named "email," defining email we all use and experience today. In 1982, the United States government officially recognized him as the inventor of email by awarding the first U.S. Copyright for "Email," when copyright was the only protection for software inventions.

Unless you have some background in eastern philosophy or spiritual practice this book may not be easy to understand. I was hoping for more concrete suggestions for maintaining health. Still a decent read and thought provoking. A second read would be valuable

NOPE!

A deceptive book. Thought it would be a book about 'Optimal Health' concepts turns out to be a book on Indian body rhythms, etc. Nothing about eating the healthy foods or a diet, more like a book luring one in Chakra. A bait and switch title.

Well that was a waste of 2 days

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 21, 2020

As stated in the title I had hoped to find out how to obtain optimal health by using a system biology approach, based on eastern philosophies and traditions, except the author doesn’t explain how to use a systems approach, just that he thinks there is a connection, and how clever he is for getting a grant to go and study it.

I’ve finished the book, and still have no idea what I should be doing. Lots of ‘author did this’ ‘author is good at this’ but the only actual reader advice appears to be breath meditation and asking myself what’s wrong with me, hardly a systems approach.

Somehow I’m supposed to find out my Natural Body System and then find out how far away from it I am, before deciding how to get back. The author neglects to explain how I should do any of this, perhaps it’s all guesswork, or perhaps I should go and live in India for 20 years.

I’m an engineer, I understand intelligent systems, sensors, controllers etc and it’s interesting to relate those concepts to the human body, but I’m putting this book down with no practical idea of how to improve myself, let alone become optimal, using anything discussed. Perhaps there’s going to be a sequel?

How disappointing. I was hoping this obviously intelligent man would give us an insight into good bodily health by exercise and diet. Not heathen practices. This book just ended up taking up space in my wastebin. If you are interested in eastern mysticism get it; otherwise, don't waste your money.
