The subtler one's awareness, the more powerfully it can heal.

Spiritual people should not be ashamed of being wealthy.
Interpretation
What this quote means
Wealth is not inherently negative for those on a spiritual path; it can coexist with spirituality.
The quote by Deepak Chopra emphasizes that individuals who are spiritually inclined should not feel guilty or ashamed about their financial success. Wealth can be a tool for good, allowing those who possess it to contribute positively to society and support their spiritual growth. Rather than viewing spirituality and material wealth as opposing forces, this perspective encourages a harmonious relationship where both can enhance one another.

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.
Deepak ChopraRead
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.

Now is the time to get serious about living your ideals. Once you have determined the spiritual principles you wish to exemplify, abide by these rules as if they were laws, as if it were indeed sinful to compromise them. Don't mind if others don't share your convictions. How long can you afford to put off who you really want to be? Your nobler self cannot wait any longer.
