All Time Famous Deepak Chopra Quotes

Deepak Chopra is an Indian-American author, speaker, and alternative medicine advocate who gained prominence in the fields of holistic health and spiritual teachings. Born on October 22, 1946, in New Delhi, India, Chopra initially trained as a medical doctor in India before immigrating to the United States in 1970.

Chopra’s approach to health and well-being incorporates principles from both Western medicine and Eastern philosophies.

Chopra has also been a prominent speaker and has appeared on various television and radio programs. He co-founded the Chopra Center for Wellbeing, which offers programs and teachings based on his holistic philosophy. While he has gained popularity and has a significant following, Chopra has also faced criticism for his views on alternative medicine and the scientific validity of some of his claims.
