Deepak ChopraEveryone is acting from his own level of consciousness. This is all we can ask of ourselves or anyone else. However hurtful someone is, he is doing the best he can, given the limits of his consciousness.
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.

But I can be just as honest and think that we aren't a spiritual waste but a spiritual potential waiting to grow.
