Gotham Chopra and Joe Levin
Religion of Sports
Navigating the Trials of Life Through the Games We Love
Atria Books, 2024
Aperçu
Sports can generate religious devotion and teach life lessons.
Recommendation
Spiritualist and author Deepak Chopra never understood why adults in Boston liked to walk around in Larry Bird jerseys. But from a young age, Deepak’s son Gotham Chopra joined millions of fans who embrace all of Boston’s professional sports teams – particularly the Celtics. Gotham’s entertaining and insightful look at the power of sports will resonate with anyone who has silently prayed for a last-second field goal or a ninth-inning home run. He and writer Joe Levin examine the essence of sports, what fans learn from them, why they matter so much, and how the best athletes manage to achieve greatness.
