You know that you have fully experienced love when you turn into love - that is the spiritual goal of life.
Deepak ChopraOur most natural state is joy. It is the foundation for love, compassion, healing, and the desire to alleviate suffering.
Deepak ChopraPure physical sensation, social status, sexual attraction, and feeling like a winner are generally superficial, which is why people hunger for them repeatedly.The only goal worth attaining is complete freedom to be yourself, without illusions and false beliefs.The past and the future exist only in imagination. Everything you did before has no reality. Everything you will do afterward has no reality. Only the thing you are doing now is real.

Deepak ChopraForgiveness is attention without judgment. It heals the one who forgives and the one who is forgiven.
Deepak ChopraEveryday life surrounds us in a swirling chaos, and it's easy to fall into the grip of our ego's fears and confusion. Remind yourself each day of your intentions and spiritual purpose. Meditate, find your center, look closely at yourself, and don't let go of your intention until it feels centered inside yourself.
