Who Are We?: Is There Rebirth? How Do We Reappear? Do We Have A Choice In Destiny?

'Who are we?' is an informative reading for all of us who want to know how we came about. It takes us to an extraordinary journey through life replete with observations, reasoning and faith. In this fascinating book Dr. Laj Utreja puts forth his provocative thesis that we create our world from the impressions of our unresolved intentions and attitudes. These intentions and attitudes afford us choices in making our destiny. Laj takes us to an alternate way to look at everyday experiences. He shows that truth is always hidden behind illusion created by our nature. Like many in the community of seekers, Laj is seeking to uncover the mystery of human existence. Laj illustrates that manifested existence is the result of intention, knowledge and action. For those who think that life is a one time prerogative, to those who think they can get away unchecked without paying for the consequences of their actions and to those who think that we come into existence because of a biological chance, 'Who are we?' provides a meaningful insight. Laj's professional experience covers a wide range of disciplines related to the U.S. space and defense programs. He has worked in various capacities, as hands-on engineer, as technical leader in people management, and as CEO of a small business in developing corporate vision. In 2001, he received the George M. Low award, NASA's highest honor for quality and technical performance to a small business. Over the span of his professional career in engineering, Laj has accumulated considerable training and experience in praanaayaama, yogaasana and ayurvedic healing and has developed a system of Healing Consciousness for wellbeing. He is founder of the Institute ofSpiritual Healing. Laj has been an ardent student of Sanaatana Dharma for most of his adult life. He has given a myriad of talks on the various aspects of his faith as part of cross-cultural understanding to various groups and organizations in the USA. His reverence for Bhagavad Geeta has in part motivated him to take this endeavor, 'Who are we?' Laj often says, "Simplicity, common sense and faith are all you need to understand life." He has practiced those principles during his endeavors in engineering, science, business and now in wellbeing. He enjoys walking on the beach, cooking vegetarian cuisine, painting in oil, studying and teaching Bhagavad Geeta. Laj and his wife Monita live in Madison, Alabama.
