Deepak Chopra Quotes

Deepak Chopra is an author, physician, speaker and philosopher who focuses on spiritual enlightenment. As a medical doctor, Chopra worked at several major hospitals in the United States, and managed a private practice, until he developed an interest in Transcendental Meditation in 1981. He became a leader in the mind-body medicine movement and eventually founded the Chopra Center in 1996. Though primarily known for his contributions to the theory of mind-body medicine, particularly the idea that consciousness, meditation and self-awareness are keys to both healing and illness, he has also written extensively about religion and spirituality.
