Who is Deepak Chopra

You might have heard this popular name being discussed all
over the world. If you're already wondering who he is, then
here is something to get started. Deepak Chopra is a name
to reckon with in the world of Hindu spirituality and
medicine. He has served to transform the way people
perceive health. He is the owner and founder of the Chopra
Center for Wellbeing, located in Carlsbad in California. He
has written several books in spirituality and its relation
to medicine.

How it started

Deepak Chopra was born in the city of New Delhi in India
and did his primary schooling in St. Columbia's school. He
graduated from the All India Institute of Medical Sciences
(AIIMS). He emigrated to the US in 1970 to do his clinical
internship. Initially Chopra taught at the Tufts University
and Boston University schools of medicine. Then in around
1981, he met the famous Ayurvedic physician called Dr.
Brihaspati Dev Triguna. Soon Chopra was inspired by his
teachings and took to transcendental meditation and started
spearheading the movement as well. Soon Chopra realized he
had other pursuits that were his true calling in life. So
that's when he branched off into his own to treat mind and
body conditions. In was during this time in 1993, that
Chopra became the executive director of Sharp Institute for
Human Potential and Mind - Body Medicine.

The Center for wellbeing

Deepak started the Chopra Center for Wellbeing in 1995.
Since then he has being trying to combine the best
practices of Western medicine with the ancient culture and
healing traditions of the East. He is the Director of the
center and aims to offer programs dealing with yoga, mind
body medicines, emotional wellbeing, self discovery, as
well as meditation techniques. He has also partnered with
Mr. David Simon, who is the medical director and co-founder
of the Chopra center and has served to transform the way
the world perceives mind, body, emotional, social,
spiritual and physical and mental wellness.

What he aims for

Deepak Chopra essentially aims to bring about peace and
wellbeing in the world today. In today's modern day world,
almost everyone is experiencing life in the fast lane. This
has resulted in increased stress levels, anxiety,
depression and heart diseases. Deepak Chopra, through his
wellness center, has tried to bring about peaceful
solutions to social injustices, disparities in the economy
and also imbalance in our ecology and environment. Although
the full realization of this mission is still work in
progress, a lot has already been achieved through his
center. They aim to bring about a movement which is
peaceful, unlike so many other movements which stress on
the "anti" factor. Usually these anti movements serve to
cause friction and resistance in society. Their peace
movement is based upon on central thought and word -
Satsang. Satsang depends on the concept of sharing one's
consciousness with the rest of the world. It could be
something as simple as an open discussion or forum held at
regular intervals - where people from various walks of life
discuss their desire to achieve world peace.

An author

Deepak Chopra is a very well-known author and has several
bestselling books to his credit. Some of his popular works
include: Peace is the way, The book of secrets, The
spontaneous fulfillment of desire, The deeper wound, The
essential ageless body timeless mind, The essential how to
know God, Golf for enlightenment, Grow younger live longer,
Journey into healing, Life after death, The love poems of
Rumi, The path to love, The seven spiritual laws for
parents, The soul in love, The third Jesus, The way of the
wizard, Boundless energy, among many others.

Criticism

As with every famous personality, Deepak Chopra too has
undergone his share of public criticism. His often frequent
reference to the quantum mechanics to healing processes has
earned him severe criticism from several quarters. The
reason being that his reference to this subject of quantum
mechanics serves to add to further confusion in the press,
as to the real nature of these theories. The quantum theory
of healing relies on the fact that our bodies can be healed
from a level that is not sensory in nature. It says that
our bodies are eventually centers of energy, information
and intelligence.
