Deepak Chopra Quotes

Inspiration is that state in which mind and heart are connected.

How does light enter a person? Through the open door of love.

I have to get inspired by something that touches my soul, or rocks my soul.

The brave who focus on all things good and all things beautiful and all things true, even in the small, who give thanks for it and discover joy even in the here and now, they are the change agents who bring fullest Light to all the world.

A man's work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened.

There are many kinds of truth. But truth communicated by beauty is the only pure one. The only one that touches me in the heart.

It's a very organic feeling to have something really speak to you and kind of lay out the blueprint for you.

I'm thankful I am able to continue to share the joy and the inspiration tap brings.

Light itself is a revelation.

The biggest thing is the heart. If you find the heart in what you do, if it's stage work, set work, modeling, you find the heart of it, that's where the truth actually stems from. Our true personality shines from within.

The pressed oil of words can blaze up into music, into image, into the heart and mind's knowledge. The lit and shadowed places within us can be warmed.

Putting pen to paper lights more fire than matches ever will

I think inspiration is always around; it's just a question of whether or not you're noticing it.

Just as one candle lights another and can light thousands of other candles, so one heart illuminates another heart and can illuminate thousands of other hearts.

Love is the main generator of all good writing... Love, passion, compassion, are all welded together.

Seeing the Way is like going into a dark room with a torch; the darkness instantly departs, while the light alone remains. When the Way is attained and the truth is seen, ignorance vanishes and enlightenment abides forever.

An idea so luminous flashed across her brain that she almost thought the room had leaped into light.

Creativity is connected to your passion, that light inside you that drives you. That joy that comes when you do something you love. That small voice that tells you, 'I like this. Do this again. You are good at it. Keep going.' That is the juicy stuff that lubricates our lives and helps us feel less alone in the world.

Once in a while you get a moment of clarity - an inspiration - and they don't come that frequently.

How can one become enlightened in one single moment? One can, because one is enlightened -- one just has to recognize the fact. It is not something that happens from the outside, it is something that arises from the inside. It has always been there but you were clouded, you were full of thoughts.

Truths kindle light for truths.

Until it is kindled by a spirit as flamingly alive as the one which gave it birth a book is dead to us. Words divested of their magic are but dead hieroglyphs.

You can't discover light, by analyzing the dark.

What are the sources of an illumination? To me, they come after hours of searching and keeping my soul ready. Yet they come in a flash, as a religious phenomenon. The Heart is a Lonely Hunter had such an illumination, beginning my long search for the truth of the story and flashing light into the long two years ahead.
