EVERYTHING that happens in the universe starts with an INTENTION
Interpretation
Intentions shape our reality and influence what occurs around us.
Deepak Chopra's quote emphasizes the power of intention as a fundamental force behind every event and experience in the universe. It suggests that our thoughts, desires, and motivations serve as the catalysts for manifestation, urging individuals to cultivate positive and purposeful intentions to create the reality they desire.
