The subtler one's awareness, the more powerfully it can heal.
Deepak ChopraRead
You know that you have fully experienced love when you turn into love - that is the spiritual goal of life.
Interpretation
True love transforms individuals, making them embody love itself, which is a key purpose of life.
This quote by Deepak Chopra suggests that the ultimate achievement in life is not just to experience love, but to become love itself. It speaks to the idea that love goes beyond mere feelings; it is a profound transformation that connects individuals to a higher spiritual state, emphasizing love as a fundamental and divine aspect of our existence.

The subtler one's awareness, the more powerfully it can heal.
To promote the healing response, you must get past all the grosser levels of the body - cells, tissues, organs and systems -- and arrive at a junction point between mind and matter, the point where consciousness actually starts to have an effect.
It is only because you take your mind to be yourself, and make it dwell on what you are not, that you lose your sense of well-being.
The most creative act you will ever undertake is the act of creating yourself.
According to Vedanta, there are only two symptoms of enlightenment, just two indications that a transformation is taking place within you toward a higher consciousness. The first symptom is that you stop worrying. Things don't bother you anymore. You become light hearted and full of joy. The second symptom is that you encounter more and more meaningful coincidences in your life, more and more synchronicities. And this accelerates to the point where you actually experience the miraculous.
I will practice acceptance. Today I will accept people, situations, circumstances, and events as they occur. I will know that this moment is as it should be, because the whole universe is as it should be. I will not struggle against the whole universe by struggling against this moment. My acceptance is total and complete. I accept things as they are this moment, not as I wish they were.
Love, that exempts no one beloved from loving, seized me with pleasure of this man so strongly, that, as thou seest, it doth not yet desert me.
That deepest thing, that recognition, that knowledge, that sense of kinship began the first time I saw you,and it is the same now - only a thousand times deeper and tenderer. I shall love you to eternity. I loved you long before we met in this flesh. I knew that when I first saw you. It was destiny. We are together like this and nothing can shake us apart.
What is a loving heart? A loving heart is sensitive to the whole of life, to all persons; a loving heart doesn't harden itself to any persons or things.
What is fundamentally beautiful is compassion: for yourself and for those around you.
Love is a promise, love is a souvenir, once given never forgotten, never let it disappear.
Every act of love is a work of peace no matter how small.
