The Most Profound & Remarkable Experience I Had While Studying with Deepak Chopra
I had the privilege to work with Deepak Chopra while I was studying to become a “Perfect Health Instructor.” In that time I benefited from his wisdom and spirituality in many life altering ways.
I want to thank Jenny for asking me to be apart of this very special project, that deals with how many of the great hero’s of our time men and women have inspired, motivated and changed millions of lives.
Dr. Deepak Chopra
has written more than fifty books including several New York Times Bestsellers and is an international speaker. Time Magazine has called him one of the top 100 heroes and icons of the century and credits him as “the poet-prophet of alternative medicine”.
Dr. Deepak Chopra serves as the Director of Education at The Chopra Center
which offers training programs in mind body medicine such as the Perfect Health life management program and the Journey into Healing workshop which fuses modern science and Ayurveda.
What I have learned from Deepak Chopra could take me ten books to explain. Since I am not writing a book and simply a blog, I will share the most profound and life changing factor I picked up from Deepak Chopra.
One of the greatest gifts I learned from Deepak was the concept that we are all one. I have to admit that before I read his book, “The Book of Secrets” which led me to seek him out personally and then to study under him. The concept of unity and we are all connected was just that, a concept. I didn’t understand it and frankly I wasn’t trying to.
Deepak explained to me in such away that I for the first time understood just how powerful that fact, that we are all one truly is.
Let me put it this way, when I grasped the idea that I come from everything and everything is apart of me, including God, that was a very secure and reassuring feeling, once I truly understood it on deep feeling level not just an intellectual level. That I will tell you took some action on my part to get to that point, which I will explain shortly.
One of the special things about Deepak is his ability to express what it feels like to be connected to everything in existence. The earth, the ocean and the trees whether they are the ones in front of your house or a tree in Africa, is comprised of the same energy and molecules that you and I are comprised of. How miraculous is that?
Deepak explains it like this, we all breathe the same exact air that Jesus breathed and Einstein breathed and even an old woman all the way in China has breathed just a couple of weeks ago. The same molecules are still in the air circulating and we are all literally sharing them.
By understanding that concept I was able to have such a shift in awareness that my world as I knew it completely changed. You can have that same dramatic shift that I did by taking a few moments to visualize what I just said. In doing that you can see how really connected we all our.
I know longer felt like an outsider looking in, I no longer felt afraid of the unknown because I realized through Deepak’s teachings that I was the unknown and as well as the known. I could feel the sameness in everyone instead of looking for the differences.
Deepak taught me that when we learn a new concept that we have to put it to the test in order for it to make a significant difference in our lives.
He taught me that if I wanted to understand for instance the concept we are all one that I would have to practice that new way of thinking. He would suggest exercises and examples of how to experience that concept first hand so that I really felt it and lived it.
One of his suggestions that he has in the “The Book of Secrets” is spend one day pretending you are Jesus or Buddha or someone of that nature.
Really ask the spirit of that person to inhabit you for the afternoon. How would you behave? How would you react to the world? How would you feel? At first I thought this was an absurd idea but when I tried it, I knew Deepak's idea was brilliant.
Talk about a life changing experience. Try that some time for one whole day and then see how different you look at your life and circumstances.
Just imagine if you are Buddha or Jesus, you would not start yelling at the old lady in front of you that is taking too long to make a right turn on a green light. The way you look at the world and treat people would completely change if you were Gandhi or Jesus.
Have you ever tried really and truly spending a day in their shoes and looking at the world as if you were one of them? I know it sounds crazy but I dare you to take this challenge and tell me that your perspective did not drastically change.
This is one experiment that is powerful enough to alter you life in a positive way. you may be surprised at how connected to everything you really are when you realize that you have the ability to ask the spirit of someone you respect and has died to share your body for the day.
I feel honored to be able to share just a little about what I learned from Studying with and reading Deepak Chopra. I hope you benefit from his teachings, books and seminars as much as I have.
Please feel free to share your thoughts and experiences on how Deepak Chopra has affected your life.
I wish you all the success and happiness the Universe has to offer!
