Deepak Chopra

“If all of the steps of surrender are present, then a great Rembrandt or Monet will evoke love because the artist is simply there in all his naked humanity.”

“Be happy for no reason, like a child. If you are happy for a reason, you’re in trouble, because that reason can be taken from you.”

“The basis of everything in the wizards' world rests upon the insight "All this is myself." Therefore, in accepting the world as it is, the wizard views everything in the light of self-acceptance, which is the light of love.”

“Karma is only in space time and causality. Your real self resides non-locally.”

“Research has shown that the best way to be happy is to make each day happy.”

“A person is a pattern of behavior, of a larger awareness.”

“The highest levels of performance come to people who are centered, intuitive, creative, and reflective - people who know to see a problem as an opportunity.”

“A risk-free life is far from being a healthy life.”

“Freedom comes when you see the built-in contradiction of trying to manipulate something that is going right to begin with.... Stop trying to steer the river.”

“Our thinking and our behaviour are always in anticipation of a response. It is therefore fear-based.”

“The physical world, including our bodies, is a response of the observer. We create our bodies as we create the experience of our world.”

“Don’t follow someone else’s map. You should glean teachings from all directions, keeping true to those that bring progress yet remaining open to changes in yourself.”

“If we are creating ourselves all the time, then it is never too late to begin creating the bodies we want instead of the ones we mistakenly assume we are stuck with.”

“בהיותנו מודעים, אף פעם איננו רחוקים מהאלוהי, אפילו לא לשנייה, אפילו בשעת הלילה האפלה של הנפש. איכשהו בפנים, כולנו משתוקקים להתחבר מחדש.”

“אנחנו אלוהיים במהותנו כי אלוהים הוא רק שם אחר למקורה של התודעה.”

“רק המודעות יכולה להסביר את עצמה. מה שאנו חווים הוא אמיתי לגבינו.”

“אם אלוהים נובע מתודעתנו הרי 'דע את עצמך' הוא ציווי בעל משמעויות דתיות עצומות.”

“אהבה אישית היא ביטוי לאהבת העולם.”

“אהבה אינה צריכה סיבה. היא מגיעה ממעמקי חוכמת הלב.”

“אהבה משתנה עם הזמן אבל איננה נעלמת.”
