The most satisfying project you will ever undertake-and a mark of a complete human being-is to discover how to build a sense of happiness that no one can take away from you.
Deepak ChopraSuccess, wealth, good health and nurturing relationships are by-products of happiness, not the cause.
Deepak ChopraAs you focus on simplifying your life, make sure that your approach to the process is a loving and accepting one. Know that you are doing all that you can do right now, and that is all anyone can do.
Deepak ChopraMuhammad is more human, more self-doubting, even self-tortured at times. His story is full of adventure, intrigue, betrayal.
Deepak ChopraWithout self knowledge, without understanding the working and functions of his machine, man cannot be free, he cannot govern himself and he will always remain a slave. What you WANT is irrelevant, what you've CHOSEN is at hand. You and I are essentially infinite choice-makers. In every moment of our existence, we are in that field of all possibilities where we have access to an infinity of choices.
Deepak ChopraShe was startled. "But you're human, aren't you?" In some ways yes. But in other ways I'm a stranger to your kind. I have a friend who calls you plucked angels, and he claims you're a total waste of spirit. Do you ever think like that?" Of course, in honest moments. But I can be just as honest and think that we aren't a spiritual waste but a spiritual potential waiting to grow.
