Deepak Chopra Quotes

The present moment, if you think about it, is the only time there is. No matter what time it is, it is always now.

When you live completely in each moment, without expecting anything, you have no idea of time.

It's being here now that's important. There's no past and there's no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now. We can gain experience from the past, but we can't relive it; and we can hope for the future, but we don't know if there is one.

Every moment is an eternity in itself. Bliss is the present moment and each and everyone of us needs to understand this.

I have realized that the past and future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is.

The present moment dies every moment to become the past , is reborn every moment into the future. All experience is now. Now never ends.

We can experience nothing but the present moment, live in no other second of time, and to understand this is as close as we can get to eternal life.

He who lives in the present lives in eternity.

Where, except in the present, can the eternal be met?

In any weather, at any hour of the day or night, I have been anxious to improve the nick of time, and notch it on my stick too; to stand on the meeting of two eternities, the past and future, which is precisely the present moment; to toe that line.

I believe in one day and someday and this perfect moment called Now.

Spirituality tells the seeker not to live in the hoary past, not to live in the remote future, but to live in the immediacy of today, in the eternal Now.

My friend, the sufi is the friend of the present moment. To say tomorrow is not our way.

And if there is not any such thing as a long time, nor the rest of your lives, nor from now on, but there is only now, why then now is the thing to praise and I am very happy with it.

Stop thinking of what you intend to do. Stop thinking of what you have just done. Then, stop thinking that you have stopped thinking of those things. Then you will find the Now, the time that stretches eternal, and is really the only time there is.

Only a man who lives not in time but in the present is happy.

Nowness or the magic of the present moment is what joins the wisdom of the past with the present

The reality consists only of now, the present. It has nothing to do with the past and nothing to do with the future. It is so concentrated in this moment that if you can be in this moment, all that you are seeking and searching will be fulfilled. This moment is the door to the divine.

We always project into the future or reflect in the past, but we are so little in the present.

Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.

I'm finally locked into the now, and it's great.

The future is keeping you out of the present time.

Time sometimes flies like a bird, sometimes crawls like a snail; but a man is happiest when he does not even notice whether it passes swiftly or slowly.

Time is an illusion. Time only exists when we think about the past and the future. Time doesn't exist in the present here and now.

I've always been someone who's really tried to live in the here and now. My memory isn't very good so maybe that's why, but it just seems like I've been living this life, my current chapter, for a really long time and I don't really remember what it was like before. It's just been sort of ingrained in me. What I deal with day to day.
