My colleagues thought I was an embarrassment because I was talking about mind, body, spirit. So I was called a quack. I was called a fraud, which I initially resented, but then I got used to it.

More quotes by Deepak Chopra
When our identity comes from the self, then we keep our energy to ourselves. We feel energetic, we feel powerful, and we experience youthful vigor.
Deepak Chopra
I like Muhammad a lot, because he's like us more than anybody else. Jesus is just so exalted, and Buddha is just so exalted, it's almost beyond our reach.
Deepak Chopra
Even the most time-honoured truths do not have to be accepted until they are your truths.
Deepak Chopra
The fastest growing segment of the population in the world right now is over the age of 90, and in some cases over the age of 100 in some countries. So people are living longer. And even though much of it is attributed to modern medicine, it's not. It's lifestyle. It's nutrition. It's the quality of exercise, the ability to manage stress.
Deepak Chopra
What will really make you attractive is not working on your weak points but embracing them.
Deepak Chopra
Each of us is a unique strand in the intricate web of life and here to make a contribution.
Deepak Chopra
Go first class all the way and the universe will respond by giving you the best.
Deepak Chopra
What you call flaws are really just scars and wounds accumulated over a lifetime.
Deepak Chopra
Unless we make the change ourselves, nothing is going to change.
Deepak Chopra
Walk with those seeking truth... RUN FROM THOSE WHO THINK THEY'VE FOUND IT.
Deepak Chopra
And I believe that if 100 million people became embodiments of peace, the world would transform, because consciousness is a collective phenomenon. And what we see as good and evil is the balance between forces.
Deepak Chopra
You don't have to go the gym - just walk 10,000 steps a day and you are activating your good genes. But do practise yoga.
Deepak Chopra
In religion, the ego manifests as the devil. And of course, no one realizes how smart the ego is because it created the devil so you could blame someone else.
Deepak Chopra
People who become great leaders are those who take time to reflect every day on the big questions: Who am I? What is my purpose? Who are my heroes in history, mythology, and religion? What are my unique talents and how do I express them? These are the qualities of silent reflection that make a great leader, like Jesus.
Deepak Chopra
What you pay attention to grows. If your attention is attracted to negative situations and emotions, then they will grow in your awareness.
Deepak Chopra
A lack of restful sleep disrupts the body's innate balance, weakens our immune system, and speeds up the aging process.
Deepak Chopra
How do we awaken to this true Self? By going within and putting our attention on the silent presence in our heart - the silent witness that is detached from sensory experience and at the same time enjoys that experience in complete freedom.
Deepak Chopra
Love is what we are in our essence, and the more love we feel in our hearts, the more it will be brought to us.
Deepak Chopra
Passivity is the same as defending injustice.
Deepak Chopra
The true spiritual secret is this: what you seek, you already are. True success is discovering your inner divinity~ it's the ability to love and have compassion, trust your intuition, and awaken to your unlimited creative nature.
Deepak Chopra
