Channeling our inner Deepak Chopra

If you are a fan of spiritual teacher and author Deepak Chopra, you know that he has demystified the code to living a joyful existence.

Deepak Chopra has always struck me as a very calm soul, the kind who does not allow stress to rattle his nerves.  In his recent interview with Oprah Winfrey, he shared the reason for his cool and collected, quiet essence, qualities that make him a divine human being:  living a meditative state.   He and his wife go on trips of silence! 

Perhaps what the world needs now is an occasional mandatory retreat from the maddening (noisy) crowd... just spending time in a quiet place... with ourselves, our thoughts and our dreams.  Free from the nasty noises of everyday living... the daily nuisances in our hurried society.

Silence is golden.  For many, keeping still and quiet is a tough hurdle to overcome.  If you ask me, spending quality time with ourselves in a peaceful setting with no need to indulge in pointless chatter might be just the path to finding infinite joy in our life.
