Quote

You accept things as they are, not as you wish they were in this moment...The past is history, the future is a mystery, and this moment is a gift. That is why this moment is called the present.

With spirit we are all children of the cosmos Without it we are orphaned and adrift.
Deepak Chopra
Image
Obstacles are Opportunities in disguise.
Deepak Chopra
Image
Love is who you are. Your true self is pure love, infinite awareness, and unbounded joy...As you realize this, you will feel a small light in your heart. At first it will be the size of a spark, then a candle flame, then a raging bonfire.
Deepak Chopra
Image
Making every desire come true is not difficult once you realize that the same thing is always at work - you are transforming pure awareness from one state to another.
Deepak Chopra
Image
Every time you are tempted to react in the same old way, ask if you want to be a prisoner of the past or a pioneer of the future.

Bhagavad Gita is an examination of consciousness and the desire of human beings and the quest that we have as human beings to understand ourselves that it was a map, you might say, for exploring the territory that leads us to find out things about ourselves.
Deepak Chopra
Image
Pain is not the same as suffering. Left to itself, the body discharges pain spontaneously, letting go of it the moment that the underlying cause is healed. Suffering is pain that we hold on to. It comes from the mind’s mysterious instinct to believe that pain is good, or that it cannot be escaped, or that the person deserves it.

There is a restless kind of consumer shopping for partners, as if the right one can be found by totting up a potential mate's pluses and minuses until the number of pluses matches some mythical standards.
Deepak Chopra
Image
Do not be reactive and vengeful and if you look deeply into your anguish, you will see that it is the anguish of our wounded collective soul.
Deepak Chopra
Image
As you meditate, over time your consciousness becomes awake within itself. The silent witness within saturates and illuminates the mind so that it does not look to the past or the future for fulfillment. It experiences peace and freedom within itself in every moment.
Deepak Chopra
Image
But the real secret to lifelong good health is actually the opposite: Let your body take care of you.
Deepak Chopra
Image
Soul loss is regarded as the most serious diagnosis and the single greatest cause of premature death or serious illness by the traditionals, and it's not even mentioned in our Western medical textbooks.
Deepak Chopra
Image
The trees are our lungs, the rivers our circulation, the air our breath, and the earth our body.
Deepak Chopra
Image
One of the keys to harnessing this potentially unlimited power of the mind is to expand your level of self-awareness.
Deepak Chopra
Image
There exists within each of us a natural state of simple and open awareness in which we feel happy, light, and at peace. In contrast, the state of suffering, or unhappiness, is complicated.
Deepak Chopra

Go first class all the way and the universe will respond by giving you the best.

Sex is always about emotions. Good sex is about free emotions bad sex is about blocked emotions.
