I've read several of his books. My impression is that Chopra is a mind-over-matter, inspirational, self-help, pop psychologist with a Hindu twist. A kindred spirit to Wayne Dyer. Chopra is heavy into Transcendental Meditation as you'd expect of a disciple of the high priced guru to the rich and famous Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.
He's also a medical doctor. Some of his material is about Ayurvedic medicine and is very controversial.
I don't have really strong feelings about Chopra. His books are fairly interesting but it is my experience that self help books seldom actually help people. Your mileage may vary.

I'll answer you backwards. I am a bible believing Christian.
I don't like Chopra but think much of his info is very good. I don't like him b/c he takes people away from ultimate truth; God in Christ Jesus.

I never bothered to read his books. I find his smarmy smile offensive.

his name sounds too much like ChupaCabra.
His ideas are just as dangerous and ficticious too.

Repeating the word "quantum" in every sentence does not make one profound.
