Deepak Chopra Quotes

Of course I'm a fake. We're all fakes on this whole world, pretending to be something we're not. We are not just bodies walking around, not just atoms, molecules. We are unkillable, undestroyable ideas of the IS, no matter how much we believe otherwise.

You are not your body; you are not your brain, not even your mind. You are Spirit. All you have to do is reawaken to the memory, to remember.

Your soul isn't in your body; your body is in your soul!

The truth is that we are a part of God. God could not have created anything except out of his own consciousness. We're all his dream, and our duty in life that God has assigned to us, that the universe has placed squarely in our laps, is to find out who we really are. "Gnothi seauton," as the Greeks used to say. "Know thyself." But to know thyself, if you trace it back, to the deeper and deeper levels, you discover that that self is not your body or your ego or your personality or your country or anything, that's just a sack of self-definitions that you carry around with you

In truth, you are spirit. The body has been projected by the mind, which itself originates from Spirit.

That which comes and goes, rises and sets, is born and dies is the ego. That which always abides, never changes, and is devoid of qualities is the Self.

Our dream is to one day uncover the essence of what makes us human.

Who am I? Not the body, because it is decaying; not the mind, because the brain will decay with the body; not the personality, nor the emotions, for these also will vanish with death.

I am Walter, a body, but more important than the body is my spirit.

Are we biology or God or something higher? I know my heart beats and I listen to it. The beat is biology, but what is the song?

Our identification with the mind and body is the chief reason for our failure to know our self as we truly are.

I am not my body. My body is nothing without me.

On the vaporization and the centralization of the Self. All is there.

The soul circumscribes all things.

You are not your body. You are actually an extension of the power that created the whole universe.

my spirit is too ancient to understand the separation of soul & gender

The soul in sleep gives proof of its divine nature.

But that part of us greater than the sum of our parts cannot begin and cannot end, and so it cannot fail

Drop dreaming and you are there where you have really been always, but you were never aware. All meditation techniques are just antidream efforts, just dream-negating devices.

Don't lose who you are in the blur of the stars Seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing

The night dreamer cannot articulate a cogito. The night dream is a dream without a dreamer.
