Deepak Chopra Quotes

    “We all have a mental image of what a desirable physical body is like—trim, healthy, youthful, fresh, pleasing to look at. But we don’t use those qualities with regard to our emotions, our ’emotional body.’ The emotional body, like the physical body, must be properly nourished. It can grow tired and flabby when the same responses to the world are repeated over and over. It becomes diseased when exposed to toxins and unhealthy influences.”

    Deepak Chopra, The Shadow Effect (Page 49)

      “You get the emotions you think you deserve.”

      Deepak Chopra, The Shadow Effect (Page 46)

        “It sounds strange, but feelings have feelings. Being part of you, they know when they are unwanted. Fear cooperates by hiding; anger cooperates by pretending it doesn’t exist. That’s more than half the problem. How can you heal an unwanted feeling when it’s trying not to cooperate? You can’t. Until you make peace with negative feelings, they will persist. The way to deal with negativity is to acknowledge it. Nothing more is needed.”

        Deepak Chopra, The Shadow Effect (Page 42)

          “You are not in the world. The world is in you.”

          Deepak Chopra, The Shadow Effect (Page 40)

            “The first step in defeating the shadow is to abandon all notions of defeating it. The dark side of human nature thrives on war, struggle, and conflict. As soon as you talk about ‘winning,’ you have lost already.”

            Deepak Chopra, The Shadow Effect (Page 14)

              “Higher consciousness is the answer—the only lasting answer—to the dark side of human nature.”

              Deepak Chopra, The Shadow Effect (Page 13)
