Dr. Deepak Chopra on Leadership

Notable points from Dr. Deepak Chopra's lecture on Leadership at the Google Headquarters in Mountain View, CA (2/18/2011).

  • Leaders are the symbolic soul of a group consciousness. They represent the dreams and the creativity and the longings and the aspirations and the intentions of a collective consciousness...The leader somehow embodies the collective dream.
  • As you listen to me, become aware of the listener. All the great wisdom traditions of the world (especially in the East) will say, hold on to that part of yourself - because it is the only part that is real.
  • By changing patterns of inner experience you can rewire your brain. Rewire it for highter consciousness. It's no longer mystical, it's the science of neuroplasticity. 
  • At the micro-micro-micro level, every atom disappears. What exists, at that level, is the realm of possibility 
  • There are no structures in the universe. Only processes. Every process occurs in the field of consciousness.
  • When you extend your boundaries, take away every label you have given yourself, then you are an infinite consciousness. You are a field of possibilities and you start to see the environment as an extension of yourself. 
 Other Quotes used by Dr. Deepak Chopra @ Mountain View.
  • "What we don't know is doing we don't know what." -Sir Arthur Ellington 
  • "You are not just a drop in the ocean. You are a mighty ocean in the drop." -Rumi
  • "The highest form of human intelligence is to observe yourself and not judge yourself." -Krishnamurti
