Quotes

Nature loves efficiency, which is very odd for something supposedly working at random. When you drop a ball, it falls straight down without taking any unexpected detours. When two molecules with the potential for bonding meet, they always bond- there is no room for indecision. This expenditure of least energy, also called the law of least effort, covers human beings, too. Certainly our bodies cannot escape the efficiency of the chemical processes goings on in each cell, so it is probable... Deepak Chopra
Not every sky will be blue and not every day is springtime. So on the spiritual path a person learns to find this kind of happiness without needing nice things to happen on the outside. Rather, you find happiness by being who you really are. This isn't mystical. Young children are happy being who they are. The trick is to regain such a state when you are grown and have seen the light and dark sides of life. Deepak Chopra

A person desperately searching for love," Merlin said, "reminds me of a fish desperately searching for water. Deepak Chopra
No matter what advantages you are born with-- money, intelligence, an appealing personality, a sunny outlook, or good social connections-- none of these provides a magic key to an easy existence. Somehow life manages to bring difficult problems, the causes of untold suffering and struggle. How you meet your challenges makes all the difference between the promise of success and the specter of failure. Deepak Chopra

Well-being changes as we move through life, which is why a child's version of it cannot be the same as an old person's. Deepak Chopra
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. Deepak Chopra
Situations seem to happen to people, but in reality, they unfold from deeper karmic causes. The universe unfolds to itself, bringing to bear any cause that needs to be included. Don’t take this process personally. The working out of cause and effect is eternal. You are part of this rising and falling that never ends, and only by riding the wave can you ensure that the waves don’t drown you. The ego takes everything personally, leaving no room for higher guidance or purpose. If you can,... Deepak Chopra
Our most important task is to transform our consciousness so that violence is no longer an option for us in our personal lives, that understanding that a world of peace is possible only if we relate to each other as peaceful beings, one individual at a time. Deepak Chopra
Owning your own feelings, rather than blaming them on someone else, is the mark of a person who has moved from contracted to expanded awareness. Deepak Chopra
Deepak Chopra quote: "Every person is a God in embryo. Its only desire is to be born."
Every person is a God in embryo. Its only desire is to be born. Deepak Chopra
Deepak Chopra quote: "Either you're a person wondering if you have a soul, or you're..."
Either you're a person wondering if you have a soul, or you're a soul who knows that being a person isn't real. Deepak Chopra
And for me anyway, consciousness is three components: a personal component which for lack of a better word we can call the soul. A collective component which is more archetypal and a deeper level, and then a universal domain of consciousness. Deepak Chopra
When awareness expands, events that seem random actually aren't. A larger purpose is trying to unfold through you. When you become aware of that purpose- which is unique for each person- you become like an architect who has been handed the blueprint. Deepak Chopra
Deepak Chopra quote: "A person is a pattern of behavior, of a larger awareness."
A person is a pattern of behavior, of a larger awareness. Deepak Chopra
