"A renowned physician and author, Deepak Chopra is undoubtedly one of the most lucid and inspired philosophers of our time." –Mikhail Gorbachev
Deepak Chopra became a spiritual leader for millions of people in America and around the world. His teachings include such bits of wisdom as, "If you have happy thoughts, then you make happy molecules."
Chopra is widely recognized as one of the world's foremost authorities on the ancient Indian science of Ayurveda. He is largely responsible for the re-introduction of Ayurveda into the alternative health system. Ayurveda is a holistic system comprising many different healing aspects.
Whilst some of the Ayurvedic system is used for treating illness, Ayurveda tries to work towards preventing illness through awareness of your body's needs. Often by understanding your body's individual needs, you can achieve better health naturally, especially through changes to diet.
Born in New Delhi, India in 1947, Chopra established the American Association of Ayurvedic Medicine in 1991. In 1995, he opened the Chopra Center for Well Being in La Jolla, California where he serves as educational director.
Deepak Chopra attended the All India Institute of Medical Sciences and embarked on a career in Western Medicine. After graduating in 1968, he interned at a New Jersey hospital, trained for several more years at the Lahey Clinic and the University of Virginia Hospital and became board-certified in internal medicine and endocrinology. He taught at Tufts and Boston University Schools of Medicine, became the chief of staff at the New England Memorial Hospital and established a large private practice. However, during this time, despite his apparent success, he noticed a growing lack of fulfillment (exacerbated by his unhealthy lifestyle which boasted smoking a pack of cigarettes a day and heavy drinking to calm his nerves) and the nagging question,"Am I doing all that I can for my patients?" These doubts led him to Ayurveda, the ancient science of healing from India. Dr. Chopra immediately realized that here was a system of health care that actually treated the whole person: a system whose guiding principle is that the mind exerts the deepest influence on the body.
He began to envision a medical system based upon the premise that health is a lively state of balance and integration of body, mind and spirit. He is widely credited with melding modern theories of quantum physics with the timeless wisdom of ancient cultures. In 1992, he served on the National Institute of Health's Ad Hoc Panel on Alternative Medicine.
Chopra would aknowledge Hindu texts such as the Bhagavad-Gita as sacred. To many of his enthusiasts, Chopra's writings themselves have a sacred quality. Chopra is known worldwide for his published works. The author of 25 books and more than 100 audio, video and CD-ROM titles, he has been published on every continent, and in dozens of languages. His newest book, How to Know God: The Soul's Journey into the Mystery of Mysteries, is on bookshelves. Ten million copies of his books have been sold in English alone, and his best-sellers include Perfect Health; Ageless Body, Timeless Mind; The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, The Return of Merlin, and The Path to Love. In focusing on specific health issues, Chopra has published numerous books including Boundless Energy: The Complete Mind / Body Program for Overcoming Chronic Fatigue; Journey Into Healing: Awakening the Wisdom Within You; Perfect Weight: The Complete Mind / Body Program For Achieving and Maintaining Your Ideal Weight; Restful Sleep: The Complete Mind / Body Program For Overcoming Insomnia; Quantum Healing: Exploring the Frontiers of Mind / Body Medicine and Creating Health. His popular audio books and CD-ROMS include Magical Mind, Magical Body; The Higher Self; Journey to the Boundless; and The Wisdom Within.
Through the Chopra Center For Well Being, Dr. Chopra is revolutionizing common wisdom about the crucial connection between body, mind, spirit, and healing. He continues to chart new pathways to unleash the potential for optimum health in us all. His mission of "bridging the technological miracles of the west with the wisdom of the east" remains his thrust as he and his colleagues conduct public seminars and workshops and provide training for health care professionals around the world.
