The worst curse to befall anyone is stagnation, a banal existence, the quiet desperation that comes out of a need for conformity.
Deepak ChopraMany quantum physics are realizing or hypothesizing that consciousness is not a byproduct of evolution as has been suggested. Or for that matter, an expression of our brains, although it expresses itself through our brains. But consciousness is the common ground of existence that ultimately differentiates into space, time, energy, information and matter. And the same consciousness is responsible for our thoughts, for our emotions and feelings, for our behaviors, for our personal relationships, for our social interactions, for the environments that we find ourselves in, and for our biology.
Deepak ChopraThe first question an Ayurvedic physician asks is not 'What disease does my patient have?' but 'Who is my patient?' By 'who,' the physician does not mean your name, but how you are constituted.
Deepak ChopraHappiness is the ultimate goal...The mistake we make is not going for happiness first. If we did, everything else would follow.
