Most people think that aging is genetic and yet if your parents lived to age 80+ that will add three years to your life.

Today, I behold all the abundance that surrounds me.
Deepak Chopra

I have all the time in the world. I am in touch with the timeless. I am surrounded by infinity. When I think like that, it doesn't mean I'm going to miss my train, it just means that I'm not thinking about it right now because I'm speaking to you.
Deepak Chopra

Remember, in our inmost being, we are all completely lovable because spirit is love. Beyond what anyone can make you think or feel about yourself, your unconditioned spirit stands, shining with a love nothing can tarnish.

If you have a happy friend, your happiness goes up fifteen times.

The world sometimes feels like an insane asylum. You can decide whether you want to be an inmate or pick up your visitor's badge. You can be in the world but not engage in the melodrama of it you can become a spiritual being having a human experience thoroughly and fully.

When you allow yourself to be unpredictable, you step from the known into the unknown, where anything is possible
Deepak Chopra

I think seriousness is a mask of self-importance and self-importance in turn is a mask for self-pity. So if you're really going to pursue a spiritual way of living in the world, you must be lighthearted and carefree, have humor, be able to tolerate ambiguity and embrace uncertainty, and be forgiving of yourself and everybody else.
Deepak Chopra

Many scientists think that philosophy has no place, so for me it's a sad time because the role of reflection, contemplation, meditation, self-inquiry, insight, intuition, imagination, creativity, free will, is in a way not given any importance, which is the domain of philosophers.
Deepak Chopra

Laws of nature have no physical properties of mass /energy. They are platonic truths in transcendent realm that create & govern the Universe.
Deepak Chopra

When we experience the power of the Self, there is an absence of fear, there is no compulsion to control, and no struggle for approval or external power.
Deepak Chopra
Image
The intention to live as long as possible isn't one of the mind's best intentions, because quantity isn't the same as quality.
Deepak Chopra
Image
The measure of your enlightenment is the degree to which you are comfortable with paradox, contradiction, and ambiguity.
Deepak Chopra
Image
The mind/body connection is like a telephone line - many telephone lines, in fact, teeming with information. Small things like drinking an orange juice with pulp or eating an apple is being received like a telephone call to your genes. Every thought, every thing you eat, every single little thing can tweak your genes activity towards healing.
Deepak Chopra

Wherever you go in the midst of movement and activity, carry your stillness with you. Then the chaotic movement around you will never overshadow your access to the reservoir of creativity, the field of pure potentiality.
Deepak Chopra
Image
Everyone knows how to choose few know how to let go. But it's only by letting go of each experience that you make room for the next. The skill of letting go can be learned, and once learned you will enjoy living much more spontaneously.
Deepak Chopra

Since we are an inextricable part of the field of consciousness, we are also infinitely creative, unbounded, and eternal.
