@MrTransam1987 Did anyone really claim Deepak to be God? Really, have you ever heard that? I haven't it... Btw, Michael was unstopable in the same way the mafia side of the US government was unstopable at aiming at Micheal life for years!
well i must say Mr Chopra, for someone who is an apparent wise man, you were coming across a bit like you didnt really have the time for the interview. A couple of valid questions were being asked and Instead answering them, you kept cutting off the questions and talking over Lilou.. Im quite surprised!
After getting deeply into the Eastern Spirituality Movement and meditating for years I have finally concluded its all bs. Read the book "Stripping the Gurus" its about how all these spiritual leaders are all a bunch of sexual predators, liars, fraudsters and perverts not only that but there is a huge amount of people who get psychotic breaks from meditation. You would think if 'enlightenment' existed there would be a couple people who don't have rap sheets a mile long.
"Once you recognize that you created that, and what you create, you can change" the most powerful statement. I needed to hear that. SO I CAN SNAP OUT IF IT! Thanks for posting!
Well, it is very interesting, but nothing so new, ... but I understand her question at the end.... it is not so easy even if you try to have the intention. Like saying, "imagine this differently because anyway it is an illusion" well, it is easier to grasp the concept then to actually put it in practice.
@Lunatango1 I think what deepack is trying to get at is.... How is living without change any less/more difficult than recognizing changes you can make??? it all depends on your attitude.
its harder to live life consistently as a robot than to once, make that conscious decision. but our negative intentions and influence around us lead us to believe otherwise......the tricky part for ppl to grasp is to make conscious decisions. after you do it once, it gets exponentially easier.
Although the interview was short, you caught the heart of the matter and asked him very dep questions in a very short time and he answered great. Congratulations to you!
in my opinion, chopra blindly talks about subjects that are scientifically discussed in other fields... to study attention... study cognitive science/ cognitive psych/ cognitive neuroscience... listening to chopra speak so "matter-of-factly" about these subjects sickens me... and i strongly recommend to not listen to his apparently mystical responses of attention and intention ... basically what he is saying is majority bullshit and loosely touches on actual evidence...
I see that you don't understand exactly what deepack chopra was telling oyu. Maybe is not your time to understand yet,or maybe you are tryin' too much to understand.
I recomend you to read Some work from Vadim Zeland, maybe you'll see your hint there, but who Am I to make an advice =)
Enjoy your day and life, have fun and enjoy creating your life as you wish and dream =)
@msquestionmark I was confused also at first. See, when you see a monster in ur dream it is actually a representation of what is happening in ur subconscious. simialrly, when you see ppl/situations in ur life it is a reflection of what is going on inside your inner emotional health. So if you create/participate in peace inside urself then more of peace will show up in ur life. i hope it make sense. If you read more biology/ neuro science books u will understand.
@msquestionmark I'm simply more interested in the scientific concept. Nothing is impossible. I think the fact that you were a puddle of semen liquid, which transformed into a big human being, who lives on a globe suspended in mid air is rather "wishful fantasy". See, if you really wanted to fly you could through stem cell research one day. Back in the 1900's people ridiculed the wright brothers when they said humans would travel in air. Today an entire industry is dedicated to flying.
Uh...I was never "semen fluid". And it doesn't just magically transform into a human being. In fact "semen fluid" isn't even necessary to create human beings anymore. That should indicate that it's not large a part of the process. But *your* reality lets you believe that men are superior, therefore you must believe that this "semen fluid" is so very important. Sorry dude.
@msquestionmark Also, i totally agree with you that this particular interview was very confusing. It seemed like he was rushing, and he literally whizzed through complex topics. There are many other scientists and medical professionals who have documented physics concepts in more detail. The more you read and experiment, the cooler it gets. Research and read more stuff before you make a claim. Be informed. Watch the Matrix Movie (part 1) although a movie, life is more similar to that i find.
@amazinginspiration I don't know why you're so keen on convincing me to your point of view. I know more than you think I do. Just listening to DC, reading books on the subject, learning about quantum physics won't get you anywhere. You will learn concepts but that's it. I'd rather try psychedelics like DMT, ayahuasca, etc. DMT is produced by the pineal gland (3rd eye) in the brain naturally while dreaming and when close to death. It'll take you to the spirit world and then you'll really know.
@msquestionmark I am not trying to convince you. I actually enjoyed conversing with you. You seem intelligent, and I like exchanging stimulating dialogue with people. DMT is something new I learned from you. THanks for that!
The extent of our ignorance about our own brain is unimaginable and meditation can help organise our thoughts, relax, relieve stress and simply get to know ourselves a little better. Giving rise to ideas such as an eternal soul is highly misleading and damaging. Don't be delusional, be rational. No doubt these comments will attract several thumbs down. But hopefully next time you meditate this thought will arise and you can observe it objectively.
The merits of meditation have been shown scientifically. But there is no evidence for a soul this is a fairy tale. What you perceive as your soul is simply you. Don't think that because your brain belongs to you that you understand it....
congratulations Lilou! I knew you would interview Deepak soon or later! You did it and its great! BIg kisses, positive thoughts and love from Amsterdam
This is a five star interview. The BEST one ever. It's obvious to me that he answered her questions as succintly as he could've. Yoga is a form of meditation, and everything does, indeed, start with "attention and intention". Five Stars!
I am actually disappointed Chopra had to mention specific types of yoga (and no meditation) as any and all roads lead to knowing the soul if you are looking.
Thanks. I wish he had a little more time with him to go deeper in the subject of the body and soul, but this interview was 15 minutes before a talk he was giving to thousands of people.
@liloumace Deepak seems very enlightened and intelligent, any idea how he came to know all these things? DId he ever reveal where all his knowledge came from?
@kasparov9 the whole point of this is that it's not knowledge at all. its spontaneous creativity which comes from within yourself, which we all have access to in the moment and only in the moment. read krishnamurti's total freedom if you're interested.
You are looking at it from a judgemental perspective, buddhism is about practicing non judgement. You are judging money as a bad thing when it's not. People like Deepk Chopra can generate money to fund worthwhile causes like his organisation "Alliance for a New Humanity". Break the cycle of imposing judgement on people like Deepak Chopra and you will free up so much energy that you might attract a friend to lend your broke ass one of his books!
thank you for this interview Lilou! It's a pity Deepak didn't want to really answer the 'how' question though - I mean we all 'know' inside what has to be done, but sometimes it's not that easy. It would have been better if Deepak gave us a way to follow that intention or even just to trigger a way for us to follow it.
This was really helpful and timelyfor me right now... I am moving into a less prosperous area..and I have had fear that the some of the physical environment isnt as nice... Athough my house is wonderful
I love Deepak. I like how you push through with your questions....Its good to keep asking until you "get it"
Go, lilou! (o: - & I understand your questions there. The "how" of it, practical applications can help a lot! For many of us yoga has been practiced. And as one of my teacher-helper people has said, complicated systems can be chosen but are not a requirement. 'Rules' can confound & confuse. Projections may be the *effect* of consciousness, not the cause of it & are not always literal. Every-thing may be some form Mind "pushed out." Did you ever check out the Melissa Zollo website? Interview her!
Oh my! What an opportunity, I've been waiting for this one for a while, glad you've posted it. I guess he is really saying re: the london issue, its how we perceive things as to how they are for us, what we focus on becomes our reality....yet again, another reminder, we have the power to create our own reality - BIG time!!
Yep Deepak is is spot on, clear as a whistle and cool...love the example of this, as have enough of the humble self sacrificing, martyr, holy joe types...good on ya lilou!
Congratz on this interview and thanks for raising the question of nature's relationship to the soul. I love London, but when I took a college course there years ago, I found myself needing to get out into the country every once and a while.
Animals are good for the soul, too. That is why we are raising awareness for animals on our channel.
Yer animals are defintely. They live in the 'now' and love unconditionally, as opposed to humans with their 'ego' love, that they use to manipulate others to provide for their needs and fit in with their belief systems
Mothers and religion are very good at this in particular
I love you lilou! Keep it up:) and I love Deepak, he's awsome!
